NEW STUDIES FIND THERE ARE MORE BIG BLIZZARDS BUT LESS SNOW
OVERALL EACH YEAR

Two Millbrae condominium
developers with units between
$599,000 to $1.28 million recently
faced lawsuits over shoddy con-
struction that includes severe struc-
tural issues, water damage and
cracking and although city
inspectors signed off on the proj-
ects, they are immune from legal
action.
The two developments each have
more than 100 units along El
Camino Real 88 Broadway and
Park Broadway. With Peninsula
housing demand growing, land at a
premium and a regional goal of
transit-oriented multi-unit develop-
ment, such housing is becoming
more popular but can lead to a
series of legal tangles once prob-
lems are revealed in time. While one
group was able to reach a settle-
ment, mediation continues for the
other. But there may be a trend in
the need to seek lawsuits.
Building up comes with different
challenges than single-family
homes. California has building
codes, most recently adopted in
2010, regulating anything built in
the state. Cities that have issued
building permits are charged with
inspecting the buildings to meet
those codes. However, the employ-
ees and the city are immune from
legal action if problems are found
with that construction.
Millbrae officials declined to
comment on the requirements of
building inspectors. Neighboring
cities also declined to comment
about the requirements of their
inspectors. Experts say the chal-
lenge appears to be the inability to
really watch over every detail on

A San Francisco couple was
arrested Saturday at a South San
Francisco hotel after four women,
one underage, told police the pair
recruited them to solicit and engage
in prostitution and gave them drugs
in order to keep them working all
night, according to police.
South San Francisco police
responded to the hotel on Airport
Boulevard at about 11 a.m. after a
clerk alerted authorities about possi-
ble prostitution activity.
It was initially reported that on
two consecutive days the same clerk
observed four young women, one
17, being dropped off at the hotel by
a man who would leave the area
once the women rented two differ-
ent rooms, according to police.

The owner of a local bail bonds
business claims the county jails
phone company failed to provide
dependable service frequently
disrupting inmates trying to reach
her which gave other agencies an
unfair economic advantage.
Bail bond agencies depend on the
ability to communicate with poten-
tial clients around the clock so unre-
liable phone service is nancially
detrimental because the inmates will
go elsewhere, according to Corrin
Rankin, owner of Out Now Bail
Bonds in Redwood City.
Rankin is suing Global Tel*Link
Corporation in San Mateo County
Superior Court on several grounds
including breach of contract, false
advertising and unfair competition.
Its like if I own an ice cream
parlor and the delivery people stop
delivering ice cream to my business.
If my phones arent working, I
might as well close the door and go

Rankins suit, led Feb. 8, comes
as the Sheriffs Ofce is considering
proposals by phone service
providers at the countys correction-
al facilities. The current contract
with Global Tel*Link expires at the
end of March. Assistant Sheriff

Belgians hunt boar:
No contest, animals win
BRUSSELS Belgians went on a
boar hunt and at first it looked like no
contest: 200 hunters vs. 170 wild
boars. Yet in the end, only one boar
was slain.
As hunter Jef Schrijvers said after a
frustrating day: The boars won. The
hunters lost.
The northern town of Postel had
organized the hunt because an explo-
sive increase in the boar population
had damaged farm fields and woods
and caused rural traffic problems.
In a coordinated swoop, the hunters
sought to drive the boars together so
that marksmen in high positions could
shoot them, but the plan didnt work.
Schrijvers told the VRT television
network that the hunt was perfect,
safe and correct. Only the result was
disappointing.
He called it a successful general
rehearsal ahead of similar hunts.
Bunnies taking toll on
cars at Denver airport
DENVER Silly rabbits.
The furry creatures are wreaking
havoc on cars parked at Denver
International Airport by eating spark
plug cables and other wiring.
To stop the problem, federal wildlife
workers are removing at least 100 bun-
nies a month while parking companies
install better fences and build perches
for predator hawks and eagles.
Airport spokeswoman Laura Coale
says that out of 4.3 million parking
transactions in 2012, three claims were
submitted for rodent or rabbit damage,
and none was submitted with a claim
for towing.
KCNC-TV reports theres another
way to stop the damage that can cost
thousands of dollars to repair.
Mechanics say coating the wires
with fox or coyote urine can rob the
rabbits of their appetite. Fox urine can
be purchased at many hunting shops.
Fergie, Josh Duhamel

A representative for the Black Eyed
Peas singer confirmed the news
Monday. Fergies actor husband Josh
Duhamel tweeted about the news with
joy, saying: Fergie and Me and BABY
makes three.
The 37-year-old Fergie and 40-year-
old Duhamel married in 2009. She
joined the Black Eyed Peas when the
group released its third album,
Elephunk, in 2003. The foursome is
known for its pop-inspired hip-hop
tunes like My Humps, I Gotta
Feeling and Boom Boom Pow.
Fergie launched her solo debut, The
Duchess, to much success in 2006. It
featured five Top 5 hits, including
Fergalicious and Big Girls Dont
Cry.
Duhamel has appeared in the
Transformer films and most recently
in Safe Haven.
Celine Dion cancels
Vegas shows due to sinusitis
LAS VEGAS Singer Celine Dion

flu last week, but then developed
sinusitis. Her doctor prescribed antibi-
otics and advised her to rest for a full
week.

The Half Moon Bay City Council will consider adopting an ordi-
nance to prohibit the free distribution of single-use paper and plastic
bags; and require retail establishments to charge customers for recy-
cled paper bags and reusable bags at the point of sale. The council
meets 7 p.m., tonight, Department Operations Center, 537 Kelly
Ave., Half Moon Bay.
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The San Mateo City Council will consider
tonight whether to join Redwood City and
other cities in forming a task force to evaluate
the South Bayside Waste Management
Authority and how it is governed.
City staff recommends that the City Council
designate one of its members to the task force
to review whether the SBWMA is being run
efciently in light of annual garbage rate
increases.
The SBWMA board currently consists of
city staff but that may change to include elect-
ed ofcials if the board moves to amend its
charter.
In December, the Redwood City Council
agreed to ask the other SBWMA member
agencies to join and appoint a representative
to evaluate the agency and consider changes if
warranted. San Carlos, Foster City, Belmont,
Hillsborough, Burlingame and the West Bay
Sanitary District are on board so far.
San Mateo will consider whether to join the
group in a special study session tonight before
the council meets for its regular meeting.
Redwood Citys move to evaluate the
agency comes on the heels of repeated fee
hikes and the handling of an ex-employees
retaliation claim against the executive director
after her job was cut. In deciding to form a
task force, Redwood City Councilwoman
Rosanne Foust used as an example questions
over why the SBWMA did not put the director
on leave while investigating the matter.
The SBWMA, also known as
RethinkWaste, formed in 1982 and its mem-
bers include Atherton, Belmont, Burlingame,
East Palo Alto, Foster City, Hillsborough,
Menlo Park, Redwood City, San Carlos, San
Mateo, San Mateo County and the West Bay
Sanitary District. It owns the Shoreway
Environmental Center in San Carlos and is led
by an executive director who reports to a
board of directors comprised of city staff from
the various cities.

cial study session 5:45 p.m., tonight, City
Hall, 330 W. 20th Ave., San Mateo.

S.F. protest urges
action on climate change
Environmentalists are protesting in San
Francisco as they urge President Barack
Obama to take action on climate change and
reject a pipeline that would carry oil from
Canada to Texas.
Organizers say the members of 65 San
Francisco Bay area groups including the
Sierra Club, Greenpeace and 350.org are tak-
ing part in the rally, which coincides with a
demonstration in Washington, D.C.
Demonstrators are holding the protest out-
side of a U.S. Department of State ofce,
where they demanding the State Department
reject the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline.
The pipeline if approved would carry
oil derived from tars sands in Canada to
reneries in Texas.
San Francisco police dont provide crowd
estimates of rallies and protests, but a
spokesman says police had no reports of any
problems caused by the protest.
Family mourns loss

San Francisco re ofcials say when re-
ghters arrived at the complex around 12:15
a.m. Saturday they found ames roaring out
of the two-story building.
Fire Department Deputy Chief of
Operations Mark Gonzalez says reghters
tried to rescue the girl, but could not get to her.
Four other family members escaped

Around the Bay
By Seth Borenstein
WASHINGTON With scant snowfall and
barren ski slopes in parts of the Midwest and
Northeast the past couple of years, some sci-
entists have pointed to global warming as the
culprit.
Then when a whopper of a blizzard
smacked the Northeast with more than 2 feet
of snow in some places earlier this month,
some of the same people again blamed global
warming.
How can that be? Its been a joke among
skeptics, pointing to what seems to be a
brazen contradiction.
But the answer lies in atmospheric physics.
A warmer atmosphere can hold, and dump,
more moisture, snow experts say. And two
soon-to-be-published studies demonstrate
how there can be more giant blizzards yet less
snow overall each year. Projections are that
thats likely to continue with man-made glob-
al warming.
Consider:
The United States has been walloped by
twice as many of the most extreme snow-
storms in the past 50 years than in the previ-
ous 60 years, according to an upcoming study
on extreme weather by leading federal and
university climate scientists. This also ts
with a dramatic upward trend in extreme win-
ter precipitation both rain and snow in
the Northeastern U.S. charted by the National
Climatic Data Center.
Yet the Global Snow Lab at Rutgers
University says that spring snow cover in the
Northern Hemisphere has shrunk on average
by 1 million square miles in the last 45 years.
And an upcoming study in the Journal of
Climate says computer models predict annual
global snowfall to shrink by more than a foot
in the next 50 years. The studys author said
most people live in parts of the United States
that are likely to see annual snowfall drop
between 30 and 70 percent by the end of the
century.
Shorter snow season, less snow overall, but
the occasional knockout punch, Princeton
University climate scientist Michael
Oppenheimer said. Thats the new world we
live in.
Ten climate scientists say the idea of less
snow and more blizzards makes sense: A
warmer world is likely to decrease the overall
amount of snow falling each year and shrink
snow season. But when it is cold enough for a
snowstorm to hit, the slightly warmer air is
often carrying more moisture, producing
potentially historic blizzards.
Contradiction: Less snow, more blizzards
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Burlingame will soon consider a ban on
single-use plastic bags and is holding a pub-
lic meeting this week to help residents and
businesses understand the full scope of the
proposed ordinance.
Several Peninsula cities have already fol-
lowed the San Mateo County template for
prohibiting the bags and Burlingame is
poised to possibly do the same at its March
4 council meeting. If adopted, the ordinance
becomes effective April 22.
Prior to adoption, a public meeting will be
held 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 20 at City Hall,
501 Primrose Road. The purpose of the
meeting is to provide information about the
proposed ordinances requirements and
answer any questions from the attendees.
In the meantime, the city is doing outreach
on how the ban would work, who it would
affect and any associated costs. If adopted,
the ordinance would ban bags by all retailers
except restaurants and nonprofits excluding
protective bags for produce or meat, dry
cleaning and newspapers. Retailers must
charge a minimum of 10 cents per paper bag
used although that fee jumps to 25 cents in
2015.
The ordinance echoes that of the county
which was passed in 2012 after an environ-
mental impact report involving several
Peninsula cities. Twenty-four cities in San
Mateo and Santa Clara counties participated
in the EIR process but each city council is
required to adopt a ban for it to be effective
in those jurisdictions. The cities included in
the San Mateo County EIR are Belmont,
Brisbane, Redwood City, Colma, Daly City,
East Palo Alto, Foster City, Half Moon Bay,
Menlo Park, Millbrae, Pacifica, Portola
Valley, Redwood City, San Bruno, San
Carlos, San Mateo, South San Francisco,
Woodside, Milpitas, Cupertino, Los Gatos,
Campbell and Mountain View.
Those who cannot attend the Feb. 20
meeting but would like to provide input on
the proposed ordinance can contact Leslie
Parks at 558-7264 or
lparks@burlingame.org.

Fishings decline looms; will fish eaters notice?
GLOUCESTER, Mass. His citys best shing days are
long past it, but lifelong Gloucester resident Ron Gilson still
sees what once was when he drives past what remains.
Theres the waterfront lot, littered with discarded shing
nets and lobster pots, where vessels in the famed shing eet
once docked. The clatter and grit of a top maritime machine
shop downtown has been replaced by a banquet hall. On the
state sh pier, where Gilson briey parks, the sounds of year-
round work have given way to the quiet whirr of his idling
Prius.
To the 79-year-old, the decline of the industry has stolen
jobs, community spirit and opportunity. And its not over,
Gilson said.
This is the lowest point, he declared on a February day.
Tomorrow will be lower.
In May, New Englands shermen will again see a cut to the
number of sh they can catch, this time so deeply that the his-
toric industrys existence is threatened from Rhode Island to
Maine. But as hard as the cuts are likely to hit shing commu-
nities, local seafood eaters may not notice at all. In the regions
markets, grocery stores and restaurants, imported sh domi-
nate, and the cuts make that less likely to change.
The cuts will shrink the catch limit 77 percent for cod in the

Colorado House passes gun-control measures
DENVER Limits on the size of ammunition magazines
and universal background checks passed the Colorado House
on Monday, during a second day of emotional debates that has
drawn attention from the White House as lawmakers try to
address recent mass shootings.
The bills were among four that the Democratic-controlled
House passed amid strong resistance from Republicans, who
were joined by a few Democrats to make some of the votes
close.
The proposed ammunition restrictions limit magazines to 15
rounds for rearms, and eight for shotguns. Three Democrats
joined all Republicans voting no on the bill, but the proposal
passed 34-31.
Enough is enough. Im sick and tired of bloodshed, said
Democratic Rep. Rhonda Fields, a sponsor of the bill and rep-
resentative of the district where the shootings at an Aurora the-
ater happened last summer. Fields son was also fatally shot in
2005.
Republicans argued that the proposals restrict Second
Amendment rights and wont prevent mass shootings like the
ones in Aurora and a Connecticut elementary school.
This bill will never keep evil people from doing evil
things, said Republican Rep. Jerry Sonnenberg.
The House also approved a bill requiring background checks
on all gun purchases, including those between private sellers
and rearms bought online.
Other proposals would ban concealed rearms at colleges
and stadiums, and another requires that gun purchasers pay for
their own background checks. Democrats eked out the closest
vote on the background check measure, which passed on a 33-
32 vote.

WASHINGTON A sharply divided
Congress isnt likely to jump at President
Barack Obamas challenge for quick pas-
sage of a mortgage refinancing bill that sup-
porters say could help millions of home-
owners save big each year and boost the
economy.
Obama praised the legislation in his State
of the Union speech last week, saying the
proposal would help more homeowners
with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac take advantage of low interest
rates and refinance their loans.
Even with mortgage rates near a 50-year
low, Obama said, too many families that
have never missed a payment and want to
refinance are being turned down.
Thats holding our entire economy back,
and we need to fix it, the president said.
Right now, theres a bill in this Congress
that would give every responsible home-
owner in America the chance to save $3,000
a year by refinancing at todays rates.
Democrats and Republicans have supported
it before.
The economys slow recovery from the
recession gives the idea urgency, Obama
said. Send me that bill, he told members
of Congress listening to his speech in the
House chamber.
The proposal is part of a push by
Democrats and the White House to help
homeowners take advantage of low interest
rates as a way to help the housing market
recover and to give the economy a shot in
the arm.
While the bill could gain traction in the
Democratic-controlled Senate, it faces a
rough road in the GOP-run House, where
many Republicans favor scaling back the
governments role in the housing market as
a way of aiding the economy. Similar ver-
sions of the measure died in the House and
Senates lame duck sessions last year.
At the moment, its an uphill battle, said
Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., who plans to file
the House version of the bill.
Welch said he will reach out to
Republicans this year in hopes of building
more support, but the bills association with
the government-controlled Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac, the federal housing agencies
partly blamed for the collapse of the hous-
ing market, hurts its support base among
GOP lawmakers.
The American taxpayers have already
sunk $190 billion dollars into the operations
of Fannie and Freddie, said Rep. Randy
Neugebauer, R-Texas, a member of the
House Financial Services Committee. Its
time that we wind their operations down
instead of using them as a piggy bank for
failed programs that further delay the hous-
ing recovery.
In the Senate, Democrats Bob Menendez
of New Jersey and Barbara Boxer of
California have legislation to aid borrowers
who are current on their loans backed by
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but who are
not able to refinance because their home
values have declined too much.
Nearly 12 million homeowners have
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans and
stand to benet renancing, the two senators
said. Many cant renance at a lower rate
because of red tape and high fees. The red
tape has reduced competition among banks,
so borrowers pay higher interest rates than
they would if they were able to shop around
more, according to the senators.
The bill also would reduce up-front fees
that borrowers pay on refinances and elimi-
nate appraisal costs for all borrowers. The
measure seeks to expand the Obama admin-
istrations Home Affordable Refinancing
Program, which saves an average homeown-
er about $2,500 per year, they said.

WASHINGTON The White House is
downplaying its draft immigration proposal as
merely a backup plan if lawmakers dont
come up with an overhaul of their own. It
wont be necessary, Republican and
Democratic lawmakers alike are telling the
Obama administration.
White House chief of staff Denis
McDonough said Sunday that President
Barack Obama wants to be prepared in case
the small bipartisan group of senators fails to
devise a plan for the estimated 11 million ille-
gal immigrants in the United States. In
response, lawmakers assured the White House
they are working on their own plan and
warned that Obama would be heading toward
failure if the White House gets ahead of them.
We will be prepared with our own plan if
these ongoing talks between Republicans and
Democrats up on Capitol Hill break down,
McDonough said, adding hes optimistic they
would not crumble.
But he was equally realistic about the erce
partisanship on Capitol Hill.
Well, lets make sure that it doesnt have to
be proposed, McDonough said of the presi-
dents pitch, rst reported on USA Todays
website late Saturday.
Even so, the administration is moving for-
ward on its own immigration agenda should
one of Obamas top priorities get derailed.
The administrations proposal would create
a visa for those in the country illegally and
allow them to become legal permanent resi-
dents within eight years. The proposal also
requires businesses to know the immigration
status of their workers and adds more funding
for border security.
It drew immediate criticism from Sen.
Marco Rubio, R-Fla., one of the eight law-
makers searching for a comprehensive plan.
If actually proposed, the presidents bill
would be dead on arrival in Congress, leaving
us with unsecured borders and a broken legal
immigration system for years to come, said
Rubio, who has been a leading GOP
spokesman on immigration.
Many of the details in the administrations
draft proposal follow the broad principles that
Obama previously outlined. But the fact the
administration is writing its own alternative
signaled Obama wants to address immigration
sooner rather than later and perhaps was look-
ing to nudge lawmakers to move more quick-
ly.
The tactic could complicate the administra-
tions work with Congress.
David Axelrod, who was a senior adviser to
Obamas re-election campaign, acknowledged
Monday that it likely was a mistake for news
of the Obama immigration plan to be made
public.
Appearing on MSNBC, Axelrod said in an
interview from Chicago that the mistake here
was to disseminate it so widely within the
administration and said he believes that
White House ofcials would take it back if
they could.
Republican Rep. Paul Ryan, the Wisconsin
lawmaker who was his partys vice presiden-
tial nominee last year, said the timing of the
leak suggests the White House was looking
for a partisan advantage and not a bipartisan
solution.
Leaking this out does set things in the
wrong direction, said Ryan. There are
groups in the House and the Senate working
together to get this done and when he does
things like this, it makes that much more dif-
cult to do that.
Freshman Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas,
called the leaked plan incomplete and said
both parties in Congress and the White House
need to work together on a solution.
It hasnt happened yet. It will happen
before something is acted upon and certainly
before something is passed, he said.

CARACAS, Venezuela President Hugo
Chavez returned to Venezuela on Monday
after more than two months of treatment in
Cuba following cancer surgery, his govern-
ment said, triggering street celebrations by
supporters who welcomed him home while he
remained out of sight at Caracas military hos-
pital.
Chavezs return was announced in a series
of three messages on his Twitter account, the
rst of them reading: Weve arrived once
again in our Venezuelan homeland. Thank
you, my God!! Thank you, beloved nation!!
We will continue our treatment here.
They were the rst messages to appear on
Chavezs Twitter account since Nov. 1.
Im clinging to Christ and trusting in my
doctors and nurses, another tweet on
Chavezs account said. Onward toward victo-
ry always!! We will live
and we will triumph!!
Vice President Nicolas
Maduro said on television
that Chavez arrived at 2:30
a.m. and was taken to the
Dr. Carlos Arvelo Military
Hospital in Caracas, where
he will continue his treat-
ment.
Chavezs announced
return to Caracas came less than three days
after the government released the rst photos
of the president in more than two months,
showing him looking bloated and smiling
alongside his daughters.
The government didnt release any addition-
al images of Chavez upon his arrival in
Caracas, and unanswered questions remain
about where he stands in a difcult and pro-
longed struggle with an undisclosed type of
pelvic cancer.

QUETTA, Pakistan At least 15,000 Shiite
Muslims took to the streets in southwest
Pakistan on Monday in a second day of protests
following a bombing that killed 89 people.
Relatives of the victims refused to bury their
loved ones until the army takes action against
the militants targeting the minority sect.
Meanwhile, militants wearing suicide vests
and disguised as policemen attacked the ofce
of a senior political official in northwest
Pakistan, killing six people, police said.
Pakistan has been besieged by militant
attacks in recent years, many of them carried
out by the Pakistani Taliban, who have been
waging a bloody insurgency against the gov-
ernment. Radical Sunni militant groups have
also increasingly targeted the countrys Shiites
because they do not view them as real Muslims.
Many of these sectarian attacks have
occurred in southwest Baluchistan province,
which has the largest concentration of Shiites in
Pakistan. Many are Hazaras, an ethnic group
that migrated from Afghanistan over a century
ago.
The bomb that ripped through a produce
market Saturday in Baluchistans provincial
capital of Quetta was the second mass-casualty
attack targeting Shiites in the city in a little over
a month. A double bombing of a billiards hall
in January killed 86 people.
The death toll from the most recent blast,
which was caused by a bomb hidden in a water
tank, rose to 89 on Monday after eight people
died of their wounds, said Baluchistans home
secretary, Akbar Hussain Durrani.
Outrage over the attacks has grown in
Pakistan, and protests were held in over a half
dozen cities Monday in addition to Quetta. But
its unclear whether the demonstrations will
spark action that will make the Shiites any
safer.
Rights groups have criticized the government
for not doing enough to crack down on the
attacks. They explain this apathy by pointing to
past connections between the countrys military
and anti-Shiite militants, and also allege the
sectarian groups are seen as less of a threat than
the Taliban because they are not targeting the
state.
Despite this criticism, the Shiites in Quetta
see the Pakistani army as their only potential
savior and are demanding the generals be given
control of the city. They blame the provincial
government and police for failing to protect
them and want the army to take targeted action
against sectarian militant groups like Lashkar-
e-Jhangvi, which claimed responsibility for
both the recent bombings in the city.
We will not bury our martyrs until our
demands are fullled, a top Shiite leader in the
country, Amin Shaheedi, told reporters Monday
at the site of the protest in Quetta.
Saumbal, the police ofcer, estimated that the
crowd of protesters numbered at least 15,000.
Some poured into the streets near the attack site
carrying signs and chanting slogans against ter-
rorism. Others remained inside a mosque
beside the bodies of their relatives, which were
covered with white sheets. One young girl
wrote on her face, Dont kill me. I am Shia.
After the bombing in January that killed 86
people, Shiites camped out in the street for four
days alongside the cofns of their loved ones.
Eventually the countrys prime minister
ordered a shake-up in the regional administra-
tion, putting the local governor in charge of the
whole province. But the governor has
expressed frustration, saying the recent bomb-
ing was the result of a failure of the provincial
security and intelligence services.

JERUSALEM Accusations that Israel
deliberately tried to curb birth rates among
Ethiopian immigrants have reopened a debate
over discrimination against the group high-
lighting the states uneasy relationship with a
community that has yet to fully settle into the
Israeli mainstream.
Womens activists and a series of media
reports contend that Ethiopian women who
immigrated to Israel over the past two decades
were coerced into taking a controversial birth
control drug without being properly informed
of its side effects or being offered alternative
contraceptives.
While the allegations have been strongly
denied by the government, it remains unclear
why so many Ethiopian women were receiv-
ing Depo-Provera, a long-acting birth control
injection that is rarely prescribed to other
Israelis.
Israels Health Ministry has denied any
wrongdoing and ruled out an investigation.
Nonetheless, last month it ordered the coun-
trys HMOs to stop prescribing the drug to
Ethiopians unless they are fully aware of the
potential side effects, which can include
decreased bone mineral density and difculty
getting pregnant for up to two years after the
injections stop.
The controversy has shined a fresh light on
the Ethiopian community and its place in
modern Israel. Believed to be descendants of
the lost Israelite tribe of Dan, Ethiopian Jews
spent millennia isolated from the rest of the
Jewish world.

A
s we move into 2013, we come to
the planning stage of the third year
of our three-year plan to balance
the citys budget. Our rst budget study ses-
sion was held at the end of January and there
will be more as we get into March and
beyond. When we adopted the plan three
years ago, our budget decit was about $5
million out of a general fund budget of about
$30 million. We reduced the decit each year
and now look to have a balanced budget for
the 2013-14 scal year.
We have been solving this problem in a
variety of ways and with the partnership and
help of the citys employees, residents and
businesses. We were able to achieve most of
our savings without having layoffs or cuts by
eliminating vacant positions and through nor-
mal attrition such as retirement. Our labor
unions worked with us as partners. The
Police and Fire departments have agreed to
stand still on compensation and worked with
us, before the state took action, to lower
future pension obligations, giving Foster City
a much better long-term scal future. Our
management group waived compensation
increases and helped to substantially reduce
expenses. They have truly been partners in
our success and I know they will continue to
do so.
We also took a leadership role, working
with other cities in adopting shared services
models. Our Fire Department, now working
jointly with two other cities, is a model of
how this can be done, but they were not
alone. Our Parks and Recreation Department
also took steps to reduce overhead by part-
nering with San Mateo on
recreation programs that
are now consolidated,
resulting in much lower
overhead cost to the city.
As we move forward, we
will continue to explore
shared services in other
areas.
What is most amazing
about all this is that we did this while also
losing a signicant number of our depart-
ment heads, mostly through retirement. In
this period, we have had a new assistant city
manager, two new re chiefs, a new police
chief, a new Community Development direc-
tor, a new Human Resources director, a new
Financial Services director and a new Public
Works director. We have managed to substan-
tially improve our scal condition and con-
tinue to provide all of the key services to our
residents and businesses while making these
transitions. None of this could have been
done without the excellent leadership of City
Manager Jim Hardy, and we all owe him a
vote of thanks.
Things are going well in Foster City, but
we are not our of the woods yet. For exam-
ple, we have more than $21million in under-
funded pension liabilities that will be coming
up for discussion at a council meeting in
March. The fortunate part is that we are con-
tinuing to work proactively to make sure that
we continue to grow and ourish. Just a few
months ago, we passed Foster Citys rst
ever economic development plan and you
will see some of the projects that come out of
that as we go through 2013. We have worked
hard on bettering the citys relationships with
our Chamber of Commerce and our business-
es and have taken great steps to work with
them as partners. The same is true of the
many home owners associations in our city.
We have worked hand-in-hand with the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary School
District, holding our rst ever joint-session
last year and now working with them to help
solve their overcrowding problem. We under-
stand our city has great schools and we will
continue to work with the district to keep it
that way. We have also worked with various
resident groups to improve and maintain our
parks and other facilities. It has truly been a
group effort.
Your current and prior members of the City
Council have worked hard to make sure that
Foster City continues to be the Paradise on
Earth that we all know and love. We have
not done it alone; we have had the great help
of you, our residents, businesses and city
employees. We know that you will continue
to help as we move forward and we want to
thank you for all you have done and all that
you will do to support our efforts in keeping
the amazing community of Foster City alive
and thriving long into the future.

The issue with climate change
Editor,
Ive been mulling over your editorial
(Suggested resolutions for our political
leaders in the Jan. 2 edition of the Daily
Journal), in which you recommended that our
Board of Supervisors and local city councils
focus on the budget and the ongoing nan-
cial obligations within, in contrast to what
you describe as sexy issues like climate
change. Climate change, I have to say, is
about as sexy as blowing your retirement
savings on a roulette wheel.
Theres no doubt that San Mateo County
residents want a balanced budget and servic-
es that are efcient and effective, but it
would be a terrible mistake to discount the
massive nancial impact that climate change
and sea level rise will visit on our county.
The Pacic Institutes report of 2009 esti-
mates that San Mateo County has more prop-
erty at risk $24 billion worth than any
other county in the state of California. For a
little perspective, that amount is more than
20 times the countys estimate for unfunded
pension obligations (San Mateo County
Financial Highlights, June 2012).
You dont have to look hard to see these
costs playing out in real time: millions of
dollars needed for emergency xes for levees
in East Palo Alto, tens of millions more to
upgrade levees throughout the county, public
infrastructure like the Womens Correctional
Facility being ooded, along with numerous
roads during King Tides. The cash drain goes
on. This is a powerful argument for our
county to do the serious work necessary to
plan for climate change. Its the nancially
prudent thing to do.

Sad litany
Editor,
The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in
1979 in an attempt to prop up a Communist
regime beset by civil war. Afghan rebels
fought the Soviets to a standstill, wearing
them out much in the same way that
Vietnamese forces wore out U.S. forces in
Vietnam. More than 2 million Afghans were
left dead in a war that ultimately saw the
ouster from power of the communists,
though war continues in Afghanistan to this
day.
After more than 33 years of war and chaos,
Afghanistan is really a mess. Despite all the
American aid and promises to rebuild the
country, its a wreck. Americas trying to
remake the world in its own image with its
own form of government, but different peo-
ples and nations simply need different forms
of government. War is rarely necessary and
never glorious. Thats one thing Americans
should have learned from their experiences in
Vietnam, and from seeing the daily horror
and carnage of that war televised in their liv-
ing rooms every night.
What a sad litany of carnage, killing,
destruction and woe. Such is the history of
the supposedly enlightened 20th century.

Mystery meat
T
he news is enough to make even
staunchest carnivore hoof it to the
veggie section. A little horse DNA
over here; a little horse meat masquerading as
beef over there. Schools, nursing homes, hos-
pitals, restaurants, home kitchens the
European horse meat scandal continues to
widen with shoppers avoiding meat, countries
vowing tighter
restrictions and
stronger quality
control and more
traditional eaters
trying to stomach
the idea they may
have inadvertently
sampled an ingre-
dient outside their
palates comfort
zone.
Granted, this
side of the pond
doesnt really
worry about the situation that much aside
from the yuck factor. Weve got our own food
concerns with the ever-revolving list of E. coli
and salmonella contamination, potential
Twinkie and wafe shortages, soda cup size
laws and occasional faux nger-in-the-chili
terror.
This time last year, consumers were aghast
at reports that roughly 70 percent of ground
beef sold in grocery stores contained the addi-
tive known as lean nely textured beef or the
more colorful term, pink slime.
And if that werent bad enough, Lean
Cuisine just last week recalled some of its
frozen ravioli meals after customers reported
nding glass shards amid the pasta and sauce.
The company is no stranger to strange ingre-
dients in March 2011, the spaghetti and
meatball meals were also yanked after cus-
tomers found plastic inside the meatballs.
Makes those pervasive rumors of McDonalds
shakes containing potato rather than milk look
like minor snafus.
In other words, eaters in the United States
have plenty on their proverbial plate without
worrying about the increasing number of
horse meat incidents plaguing other countries.
Yet, the unbridled anger of those fooled is
understandable. When a restaurant menu says
let mignon, patrons want steak not Mr. Ed.
When a frozen lasagna claims to be beef, con-
sumers want cow not equine.
Fraudulent food labeling is not a new hoax
but that doesnt make the bait and switch any
less appetizing. Fake Kobe beef, fake
Parmigiano-Reggiano and tilapia sold as red
snapper are among the most common, accord-
ing to reports like a recent one by the Food
and Drug Administration that estimates a third
of seafood sold in the United States is misla-
beled.
For what its worth, the stand-in food is usu-
ally not something that turns the stomach the
way, say, horse meat does for a good majority.
The meat might be acceptable for those
adventurous foodies whove discovered an
appreciation for the avor or desperate masses
clamoring for any kind of sustenance on a dis-
abled Carnival cruise ship but an educated
guess says most others will take a pass.
One state that might be game is in Montana
where last week the House of Representatives
approved, by an overwhelming majority, a bill
letting people salvage meat from roadkill. One
proponent, Rep. Steve Lavin, was quoted
addressing the great number of animals that
meet their end on roadways.
Theres a lot of good meat being wasted
out there, he said in one newspaper account.
Perhaps. One mans trash is another mans
treasure and apparently one mans road hazard
is anothers dinner. In this instance, at least,
the consumer knows exactly what they are
getting which is more than can be said of the
countries with the hushed up horse meat.
Exotic eating is one thing but deliberate food
deception?
Thats a horse of a different color.

BUSINESS 10
By Scott Mayerowitz
NEW YORK The 14-month
battle for control of American
Airlines came down to two men
who got their start there.
When the airline led for bank-
ruptcy in November 2011, Tom
Horton was simultaneously elevated
to CEO. But from the minute he
reached the top, a number of forces
started converging against him. The
airlines unions didnt trust him.
Those owed money by American
questioned his plans.
The strongest opposition, howev-
er, soon came from his old friend
Doug Parker. The two had worked
side-by-side as nancial analysts at
Americans Fort Worth, Texas,
headquarters in the 1980s, until
Parker moved on to other airlines,
eventually becoming CEO of rival
US Airways.
Parker had spent the last five
years looking to merge with another
airline. With American in bankrupt-
cy, he sprang into action.
By the end of the year, the 51-
year-old Parker will be at the helm
of a combined American and US
Airways the worlds largest air-
line. Horton, also 51, will serve as
chairman for about a year and then
depart the company he worked at
for nearly a quarter century. For his
efforts, he will receive $19.9 million
in cash and stock as well as a life-
time of free rst-class tickets on
American for himself and his wife.
Parker and Horton have spent
most of their lives in the airline
business. But thats about where the
similarities end.
Horton is a buttoned-up guy who
loves long runs and starts each
morning with a bowl of oatmeal and
freshly cut Texas peaches. Parker,
on the other hand, is easily the life
of a party. He commands a room
and fills his conversations with
energy.
There was never going to be room
for both at the top of American.
This is the story of how two old
friends and former protigis of leg-
endary American Airlines CEO
Robert Crandall found themselves
on opposite ends of what may be the
last great airline merger in the U.S.
Horton and Parker declined to com-
ment but interviews with execu-
tives, union ofcials, lawyers and
others connected to the deal
agreed to late Wednesday outline
how it was lled with tactical nego-
tiations, clandestine meetings and
gut-wrenching decisions. The prize:
A chance to bring American back to
its glory days.
Horton initially was safe in his
job.
When Americans parent, AMR
Corp., led for bankruptcy ve days
after Thanksgiving in 2011, it did so
from a unique position. It had lost
more than $12 billion during the
past decade but still had $4.1 billion
in cash. That meant it didnt need to
borrow money to keep operating,
and that gave Horton more autono-
my and control over the companys
fate.
His rst task was to get the airline
to stop bleeding money. Aircraft
leases and vendor agreements were
quickly changed. The airline
reviewed every part of its revenue
and moved to cut labor expenses.
This was not the time to work out
a merger, although Wall Street ana-
lysts were already speculating.
The official line became:
American was open to a merger, but
only after it emerged from bank-
ruptcy protection. Hortons prefer-
ence was for American to remain an
independent airline. The unspoken
reason was that American wasnt
worth as much as executives hoped
it would be later.
And thats exactly why Parker
wanted to move quickly, while he
still had the upper hand and could
pay signicantly less. US Airways
hadnt signed new contracts with its
unions in years. That was beneting
shareholders. Eventually, Parker
would need to pay out large raises
which would weaken his position in
any merger. Time was of the
essence.
In January 2012, Parker decided
to shop around his idea for a merger
on Wall Street and in Washington.
He wasnt the only one oating
the idea of a merger.
Horton was also feeling pressure
from Americans creditors, who
were owed $29.6 billion.
Bankruptcy law gives a company 18
months to exclusively present its
own plan to return to protability.
The creditors and judge have to sign
off on the plan but typically sit on
the sidelines.
Americans creditors took a much
more active role.
It started with their choice of
lawyers. After American led for
bankruptcy protection, the creditors
interviewed several law rms in a
basement ballroom of the Sheraton
New York Times Square Hotel.
You have to decide whether you
are going to be proactive or reac-
tive, Jack Butler, of Skadden Arps
Slate Meagher & Flom, told the
committee.
The creditors chose proactive,
and Butlers team was hired.
It probably helped that Butler had
represented US Airways in its 2002
bankruptcy and Skaddens head of
restructuring, Jay M. Goffman, had
worked closely with Parker after
9/11, when Parker ran America
West. Skadden was also America
Wests counsel when it later merged
with US Airways.
We said: You should pick a rm
that does a lot of deals, Goffman
recalled.
The full press started in February
2012, when the committees
lawyers invited Horton and two of
his top lieutenants to a dinner at the
rms Times Square ofce. There,
38 oors above the city, overlook-
ing the Empire State Building, cred-
itor representatives talked about the
merits of a merger. They didnt like
Americans plan to stay independ-
ent, thinking they could get back
more of the money they were owed
through a merger.

FRANKFURT Germans cen-
tral bank says the countrys econo-
my is on track to avoid a recession
as it shows signs of growth in the
rst three months of the year.
Europes largest economy shrank
0.6 percent in the last quarter of
2012. Two straight quarters of
falling output is a common deni-
tion of recession.
The Bundesbank says in its
monthly report out Monday that
increasing business optimism and
easing fears about the government
debt crisis among the 17 European
Union euro countries mean business
may become more willing to invest
and expand. That means that a plus
in total economic production can be
expected for the first quarter of
2013.
A growing German economy
could help speed the eurozones
recovery, which is mired in reces-
sion. Governments are cutting
spending and raising taxes to reduce
heavy levels of debt, slowing their
economies. Greece, Portugal and
Ireland have needed bailout loans
from the other eurozone members,
while Spain and Italy are in reces-
sions with high unemployment.
The European Central Bank says
the eurozone will shrink 0.3 percent
in 2013 and only start to recover
later in the year.

Somebody hacked Burger Kings
Twitter account on Monday, posting
obscene messages and changing its
profile picture to a McDonalds
logo.
The tweets stopped after a little
more than an hour, and Burger King
said it had reached out to Twitter to
suspend the account. A Twitter
spokesman did not immediately
respond to a phone message left on
Monday.
Burger King, which usually
tweets several times a week, said it
was working to get the account back
up. Typical tweets promoted sales
on chicken sandwiches, or asked
how many bites it takes to eat a
chicken nugget.
But just after noon EST on
Monday, someone tweeted via
Burger Kings account, We just got
sold to McDonalds! They also
changed the icon to rival McDonald
Corp.s golden arches and the
accounts background picture to
McDonalds new Fish McBites.
About 55 tweets and retweets fol-
lowed over the next hour and a quar-
ter, including some that contained
racial epithets, references to drug
use and obscenities. The account
tweeted: if I catch you at a wendys,
were ghtin!
Mondays appropriation of
Burger Kings Twitter account was a
relatively mild example of cyberse-
curity problems, which are causing
increasing concern in Washington
and for industry. Media outlets
including The New York Times, The
Wall Street Journal and The
Washington Post have all said this
year that their computer systems
were breached, while several NBC
websites were briefly hacked in
November.
Burger King plans apology

NEW YORK The parent com-
pany of Readers Digest has led
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protec-
tion for the second time in less than
four years, saying it needs to cut its
debt so it can keep restructuring.
RDA Holding Co. says it will
keep publishing the magazine dur-
ing the bankruptcy, and aims to be
out of Chapter 11 within six
months.
The circulation of Readers
Digest has declined because of
competition from the Internet
shrinking by nearly two-thirds since
1995 but it is still one of the
worlds most-read magazines.
The New York company said late
Sunday that it plans to cut its debt
load by 80 percent during the
restructuring, leaving it with about
$100 million in debt. It said it has
already reached agreements with its
secured lender and more than 70
percent of its secured noteholders.
A group of its creditors have sup-
plied $45 million in new nancing
to help Readers Digest go through
the process as part of a $105 million
loan to repay existing bank debt.
As revenue declines, Readers
Digest has been selling off some of
its assets. Its food website
Allrecipes.com went for $175 mil-
lion last year, and it sold its Every
Day with Rachael Ray cooking
magazine in late 2011. Meredith
Corp., publisher of the Better
Homes and Gardens magazine,
bought both.
Readers Digest paid circulation
fell 0.6 percent to 5.5 million at the
end of last year, according to the
Alliance for Audited Media. That
was about where it stood after cut-
ting its guaranteed circulation in
2009. But in 1995, Readers Digest
had circulation of more than 15 mil-
lion.

San Mateo County prep sports fans, the
time has come. Are you ready?
Three sports, 17 different brackets, at least
52 different teams over the next two weeks
the Central Coast Section playoffs are upon us
and by the time March 3 rolls around, the
Peninsula has the serious potential to crown a
bunch of new champions.
BOYS BASKETBALL
Well start with the newest and most excit-
ing of the playoff brackets the boys bas-
ketball Open Division which was designed to
pit the best eight basketball programs in the
section against each other.
Winners to the right. Lose and you go to the
left.
And it looks like the county will lose either
No. 2 Serra or No. 7 El Camino right out of
the chute as
theyll face each
other on Friday
night at Santa
Clara High
School.
Ar c h b i s h o p
Mitty of San Jose
is the No. 1 seed in that bracket.
In Division I, Sequoia and Carlmont earned
unseeded bids and will play Tuesday on the
road. The Scots face No. 10 Santa Clara while
the Cherokees square off against
Independence of San Jose. Both games are tip
off at 7 p.m. Menlo-Atherton earned a No. 9
seed and a home against against unseeded
Wilcox, 7 p.m. Bellarmine College Prep is the
No. 1 in the bracket.
In Division II, No. 12 Woodside will kick
off peninsula action against Overfelt Tuesday

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Tournaments and championships were
decided all of last week in San Mateo County.
But before we take at look at some of those
performances, the rst batch of All-League
members were announced and some honored
over the weekend.
On the boys side in the Peninsula Athletic
League, its no surprise that its two best scor-
ers, Michael Smith (El Camino) and Connor
Haupt (Burlingame), took home the Most
Valuable Player honors in the North and South
respectively.
Smith led the 22-5 Colts with a 23.4 points
per game average. He was also El Caminos
top rebounder at 10.4.
Haupt was sensationally consistent for the
Panthers averaging just under 18 points per
game, knocking down 90 3-pointers along the
way. He shot 35 percent from beyond the arc
and 81 percent from the free throw line.
Joining Smith up North is teammate Elijah
White, the dynamic point guard who averaged
just under 20 points per game. The PAL tour-
nament champion Westmoor Rams had their
entire backcourt of Wai Min, Errol Fernandez

Pac-12 reprimands
Cals Montgomery
By Josh Dubow
BERKELEY California coach Mike
Montgomery was reprimanded by the Pac-12
on Monday for shoving one of his own players
in the chest during a
game.
The conference did not
announce what specific
punishment Montgomery
received for his actions
Sunday night, although he
will not be suspended.
While emotions can
run high in competitive
environments, Pac-12
coaches are expected to
conduct themselves in a
manner that will reect credit on the institu-
tion and the conference, Commissioner Larry
Scott said. Each Pac-12 coach must be aware
that they are an example to student-athletes
and other students, and consistent with this
inuence and visibility, must meet a particu-
larly high standard.

Jerry Buss built a glittering life at the inter-
section of sports and Hollywood.
After growing up in poverty in Wyoming, he
earned success in academia, aerospace and real
estate before discovering his favorite vocation
when he bought the Los Angeles Lakers in
1979. While Buss wrote the checks and fos-
tered partnerships with two generations of bas-
ketball greats, the Lakers won 10 NBA titles
and became a glamorous global brand.
With a scientists analytical skills, a play-
boys air, a businessmans money-making
savvy and a die-hard hoops fans heart, Buss
fashioned the Lakers into a remarkable sports
entity. They became a nightly happening, often
dened by just one word coined by Buss:
Showtime.
His impact is felt worldwide, said Kobe
Bryant, who has spent nearly half his life
working for Buss.
Buss, who shepherded his NBA team from
the Showtime dynasty of the 1980s to the cur-
rent Bryant era while becoming one of the
most important and successful owners in pro
sports, died Monday. He was 80.
Think about the impact that hes had on the
game and the decisions hes made, and the
brand of basketball he brought here with
Showtime and the impact that had on the sport
as a whole, Bryant said a few days ago.
Those vibrations were felt to a kid all the way
in Italy who was 6 years old, before basketball
was even global.
Under Buss leadership, the star-studded,
trophy-winning Lakers became Southern
Californias most beloved sports franchise and
a signature cultural representation of Los
Angeles. Buss acquired, nurtured and
befriended a staggering array of talented play-
ers and basketball minds during his Hall of
Fame tenure, from Magic Johnson, Kareem
Abdul-Jabbar and James Worthy to Bryant,
Shaquille ONeal and Dwight Howard.
Few owners in sports history can approach
Buss accomplishments with the Lakers, who
made the NBA Finals 16 times during his near-
ly 34 years in charge, winning 10 titles
between 1980 and 2010. Whatever the Lakers
did under Buss watch, they did it big with
marquee players, eye-popping style and a
relentless pursuit of success with little regard
to its nancial cost.
His incredible commitment and desire to
build a championship-caliber team that could
sustain success over a long period of time has
been unmatched, said Jerry West, Buss long-
time general manager and now a consultant
with the Golden State Warriors. With all of
his achievements, Jerry was without a doubt
one of the most humble men Ive ever been
around. His vision was second to none; he
wanted an NBA franchise brand that repre-
sented the very best and went to every extreme
to accomplish his goals.

Two major sponsors, Oakley and Nike, dis-
tanced themselves from Olympic athlete
Oscar Pistorius on Monday after the South
African sports star was charged with murder
in the shooting death of his girlfriend.
Oakley, the eyewear maker, suspended its
contract with Pistorius. And Nike, which sells
shoes and other athletic gear, said it has no
plans to use him in future ad campaigns.
Pistorius lost both of his legs in childhood.
Racing on carbon-ber blades, he was the rst
amputee athlete to run at the world champi-
onships in 2011, and he made history compet-
ing in the London Olympics last year. His suc-
cess at overcoming hardship made him popu-
lar with South Africans, and a desirable pitch-
man for advertisers.
On Thursday, he was arrested and charged
with shooting his girlfriend to death in his
home in South Africa. His family has denied
that he murdered his girlfriend, the model
Reeva Steenkamp.
Pistorius agent has canceled the athletes
future scheduled races.
Nike Inc. conrmed to The Associated Press
on Monday that it had no plans to use Pistorius
in future campaigns. Nike spokesman KeJuan
Wilkins declined to say whether Nike had pre-
viously had any plans for Pistorius, or whether
it will remove current advertising that includes
him.
A 2007 Nike Internet ad showing Pistorius
starting to sprint in his blades with the cap-
tion: I am the bullet in the chamber had
already been pulled.
Wilkins said the wording in the 2007 cam-
paign was in reference to Oscars speed and
performance on the track. Nike felt it was
appropriate to take the ad down from Oscars
website recognizing the sensitivities of the sit-
uation.
Later on Monday, Oakley, in an emailed
statement, said that in light of the recent alle-
gations, Oakley is suspending its contract with
Oscar Pistorius, effective immediately. The
California company, a unit of Italian glasses
and sunglasses maker Luxottica Group, has
been associated with Pistorius since 2009,
according to the athletes website.
Pistorius website, which has been posting
statements from his manager and his family,
still shows other Nike ads, as well as logos
from Nike, Oakley and other companies.

out early in the second half of Cals 76-68 win over Southern
California on Sunday night when Montgomery yelled at star
guard Allen Crabbe for nonchalant play and then shoved him
in the chest with both hands.
Montgomery downplayed the run-in immediately after the
game but later issued an apology through the school. On
Monday, he acknowledged he went too far trying to get his
star player out of a funk.
I made a mistake, he said in an interview with Pac-12
Networks. Theres no question about that. Allen is so impor-
tant to us. Theres a lot of pressure on Allen. Hes got to per-
form for us. People are holding him, theyre pushing for him,
theyre physical with him. Its very difcult for him. He, like
everybody else, Im sure he gets tired of that.
Sometimes he tends to take himself out a little bit. Yet for
us, hes our leader. We cant play if Allen is not engaged. To
his credit, he generally has been but in this particular game I
thought he was a little bit out of it.
Crabbe had to be forcibly restrained by teammates and
briey left the court before coming back and leading a come-
back victory for the Golden Bears (16-9, 8-5 Pac-12).
Athletic Director Sandy Barbour said in a statement late
Sunday night that she understood the game was emotional but
Montgomerys actions were inappropriate.
It is unacceptable for our coaches to have physical contact
with student-athletes regardless of the circumstances, she
said. The second-half incident was certainly out of character
for Mike Montgomery, and I am condent that something like
this will not happen again.
Montgomery tried to make light of the controversy in the
postgame news conference, smiling and saying the move
motivated Crabbe. He also said he would do it again.
Worked, didnt it? Montgomery said of the exchange
with Crabbe. Allen had come down twice went to the wrong
side of the court and his guy shot two 3s. I was trying to get
him going. Probably overdid it a little bit but Allens my guy.
We cant win if he is not ready to play.
Crabbe, the leading scorer in the Pac-12 with an average of
19.8 points, scored 14 points after the shove and led the Bears
back from a 15-point decit to win.
Montgomery later apologized in a statement released by
the school.
I have great passion for this game and tonight, I let my
emotions get away from me in the heat of the moment,
Montgomery said. While my intent was to motivate our stu-
dent-athletes, my behavior was inappropriate and I apologize
for my actions.
Crabbe said after the game that emotions were high at the
time and Montgomery was just trying to motivate him.
Everythings ne, Crabbe said. Its under the bridge.
Hes my coach, no hard feelings. Were just going to keep
moving on.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Hunter
Pence still hears about that wacky hit,
when the ball came off his bat three
times in a single swing.
Pence broke the bat making contact
for a key double in a 9-0 victory against
St. Louis in Game 7 of the NL champi-
onship series last October.
Not that anybodys too surprised when
something like that happens to Pence.
The San Francisco Giants right elder
is quirky, just plain odd if you were to
poll some of his pals like second
baseman Marco Scutaro.
He loves me, Pence cracked
Monday.
Pence rode a scooter sans helmet to
the ballpark last season, a seven-block
trip that will be shorter this year since he
now lives closer. He plans to ride it again
this season for the World Series champi-
ons.
Pence is never quite sure how to react
when people stop him on the street to
talk about his memorable hit.
Its pretty unique, he said, chuck-
ling. Its tough to really answer, theyre
like, Oh, I love that triple hit. Whatever
you call it, people just look at me smil-
ing. You dont really know what to say
except, Thanks.
On the play, the ball broke Pences
bat, then hit the broken barrel two more
times on the follow- through, sending a
slicing liner toward shortstop that fooled
Pete Kozma and went through for a dou-
ble. Two runs scored, and a third crossed
the plate when center elder Jon Jay
made an error.
The rolling, slicing spin on the ball
caused it to change directions leaving
Kozma little chance to eld it. Kozma
broke to his right, but the ball instead
curved to left-center.
Pence, who agreed to a $13.8 million,
one-year deal last month, sees no need
to watch the replay multiple times. He
knows it was no ordinary extra-base hit.
It only takes one time. You see it one
time and youre already confused,
Pence said. I dont remember how
many times Ive watched that, every now
and then if its on Ill check it out. Im
pretty grateful that that happened.
Manager Bruce Bochy had never seen
quite that play. Those were the kinds of
breaks no pun intended the Giants
capitalized on throughout another spe-
cial postseason run to capture the fran-
chises second championship in three
years.
Hes going to work on it this spring
and see if hell be a little more consistent
with it, Bochy joked. Instead of a one-
time deal lets see if do it a few more
times this year and hit the ball three
times. Its quite an art. It takes a lot of
work. Thats why were here in spring
training, to see if we can get that down.
You take it. We played baseball, and
thats sure a break for us. We took
advantage of it.
Pence and Scutaro were a pair of mid-
season acquisitions who became key
contributors during the title run.
The 29-year-old Pence, acquired at the
trade deadline from the Phillies, batted
.219 with seven home runs and 45 RBIs
in 59 games for the Giants while making
a smooth transition to the expansive
right eld at AT&T Park. He had 13 hits
with four RBIs in the postseason, batting
.286 (4 for 14) in a World Series sweep
of Detroit.
Scutaro wants more of the same pro-
duction out of Pence this year, however
the hits may come.
Hes great, hes unbelievable, hes a
gamer, good friend, funny guy, weird,
everything, Scutaro said. Everybody
back home in Venezuela was asking me
about him. How crazy is he? Yeah, a
little crazy, but its good. Hes a great
guy. He looks weird. Everything he does
is weird the way he throws, the way
he hits, the way he looks but Id take that
guy with me any day.
Pence still plans to get the souvenir
bat for his collection. He believes it is
still at the teams waterfront ballpark,
but he will have to do some investigating
once he gets back to the Bay Area.
He says maybe, if possible, hell try to
duplicate that one this season.
Hes making no promises.
A triple hit? he asked. Hopefully,
just a lot of hits. I like those. Any way
they come, theres always room for a
miracle.
Notes: Bochy announced RHP Matt
Cain the opening-day starter at the
Dodgers, as expected. RHP Ryan
Vogelsong will start this Saturdays
exhibition opener against the Los
Angeles Angels at Scottsdale. Every
one of them can be an opening day guy,
Bochy said. Thats how we feel about
all five starters that we have. Tim
Lincecum started the last four opening
days. ... For the second straight spring
training on the opening day of batting
practice, Cain had a close-call come-
backer he wasnt using a protective
screen/ This time it came off Pablo
Sandovals bat, a one-hopper the pitcher
deected just in time. ... Lincecum and
Ramon Ramirez, who arrived Sunday
after being delayed by visa issues, both
threw side sessions and didnt face hit-
ters. ... Former Giants 2B Jeff Kent is in
camp for a couple of weeks.

and John Mayuga on the First Team. The trio
averaged nearly 55 points a game during their
run through the PAL tournament.
Corey Cilia and Rico Nuno of Half Moon
Bay made the First Team. Cilia and Nuno
gave the Cougars a great outside-inside pres-
ence. And lastly, the speedy Jaylend Jones of
Terra Nova rounded out the Norths selec-
tions.
Down South, Haupts teammate Nick Loew
earned First Team honors after a 11.8-points
per game kind of year. The South is backcourt
heavy with Mills Matt Wong, Aragons Alex
Manu and Nick Frankel, Carlmonts Michael
Costello and Hillsdales Angelo Bautista
rounding out the list. Manu and Frankel com-
bined for nearly 31 points per game.
For the girls, Keanna Togifa is the North
Divisions Most Valuable Player as a junior.
Marinel Alcantara, the sharp-shooting guard
and her teammate Yazmeen Goo made the
First Team out of Westmoor in Daly City. Jade
Castro, another guard, is El Caminos repre-
sentative. Lynette Mackey (Terra Nova),
McKenna Hilton (Half Moon Bay) and Sahara
Clay (Oceana) round out the Norths squad.
Down South, the eight-female team is led
by its most explosive player in San Mateos
Alana Simon. Rest assured, the race through-
out the season for the Most Valuable Player
award was tight and thats because
Burlingames Dana Michaels had a whale of a
year, too. Michaels is joined on the First Team
by teammate Lauren Rally.
The South keeps it quick with Mills Bryana
Sui and Sequoias Alaina Woo. Then theres
power and size with Woodsides Madison
Michelis, Menlo-Athertons Emma Heath and
Carlmonts Anisah Smith.
Over in the West Catholic Athletic League,
its no surprise that Henry Caruso made the
First Team. The forward had huge games
throughout the season for the Padres. His
Serra teammate, guard Andre Miller, is also
on the First Team.
Jacqui Biggins and his double-digit scoring
average is on the Second Team and many PAL
fans will recognize Frankie Ferrari, formerly
of Burlingame, on the Second Team list.
Honorable Mentions include Matt Jajeh and
Sean Watkins of Serra.
For the girls, Notre Dame-Belmont sopho-
more Eleni Giotinis was the lone county rep-
resentative. She made the Honorable Mention.
Over in the West Bay Athletic League,
Honor Roll shout outs go to the boys basket-
ball team for clinching the WBAL outright

Jack Heneghan once again led the way,
scoring 16 points 10 of those in the rst
quarter. Junior Ryan Young and sophomore
Liam Dunn added 12 each.

ROLL
us and other teams, said Westmoor head
coach Herb Yaptinchay. We have two guys,
but then theres a guy like John who is able to
put up these big games.
Mayuga denitely saved his biggest per-
formances for last during the PAL season.
After Westmoor out-defended Menlo-
Atherton in the opening round of the
Peninsula Athletic League tournament, No. 1
left an indelible mark on the seminal against
Burlingame and the nals against El Camino.
Both teams came into the tourney as unde-
feated division champions.
In those games, Mayuga scored a huge 20
and 25 to help the Rams to their rst ever PAL
tournament title.
For his efforts, Mayuga is the Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
Hes been under the radar, Yaptinchay
said, because everyone is so focused on
Wais athletic ability and his ability to make
the spectacular plays and focus on Errols
tenacity and hard work. But they forget about
John and what he give us that shooting
ability and the ball-handling skills.
True, as a point guard, perhaps you werent
expecting the offensive numbers Mayuga put
up during the PAL tourney especially since
Fernandez and Min averaged nearly 40 a
game coming into the championships.
But its not like Mayuga hadnt shown
glimpes of his offensive firepower before.
He had 14 big points in an earlier win
against St. Ignatius. He put up 24 in a win
over Half Moon Bay.
Hes had good games, Yaptinchay said.
Hes been averaging 11, 12 points per game
for us this season. If he were on other teams,
hed be their guy. The fortunate thing for us
is, hes our third-best player. He plays with a
lot of condence. Hes a guy you want the ball
with in those key situations.
There were plenty of times during the latter
rounds of the tourney when Mayuga was
dared by other teams to take open shots while
the defense focused on Westmoors dynamic
duo. Time and time again, No. 1 made them
pay.
Hes one of those kids you talk to that
wishes he could be a fifth-year senior,
Yaptinchay said. He loves playing the
game. He realizes that this is his last year of
his high school career, his last year to make
something happen. And that motivation is
really fueling him.
Everyone thinks hes only got the ability to
shoot, but he can get to the basket and make
plays. At the end of the game, hes usually the
guy we want with the ball when other teams
are fouling. He wants to have the ball at the
end of the game to make plays. Hes also
unselsh.
Perhaps Mayugas biggest attribute during
Westmoors championship run was his heart.
Defending the likes of Burlingames Connor
Haupt isnt easy work. And come the stretch
in both games, Mayuga cramped up. Still, the
point guard fought through those injuries to
come back and will his team to victory.
Its something we talked about early in the
season, Yaptinchay said. And he was one of
those kids that said he wanted to leave some-
thing behind, leave a history (at Westmoor).
To him, it was about leaving a legacy.
RAMS
PHOENIX The game is supposed to be
Americas national pastime, but the United
States has not fared well in the World
Baseball Classic.
Joe Torre is putting his managers uniform
back on to lead Team USA in this years com-
petition, but he cautions that there are reasons
the U.S. has not won, or even made it to the
title game, in the rst two editions of the
worldwide competition.
Torre, speaking Monday at a news confer-
ence in Phoenix, said players usually use
spring training to get ready physically for the
long major league season, slowly working in
the mental edge along the way. But with the
World Baseball Classic, they are asked to get
that competitive edge in a hurry against coun-
tries that take this competition very seriously.
I think a big part of it is the mental prepa-
ration for a postseason type of atmosphere,
Torre said.
Japan won the rst two championships,
beating Cuba in the nale in 2006 and South
Korea in 2009.
There is more than a little grumbling among
managers who lose players for two or three
weeks at a crucial time when they are sup-
posed to be putting together a cohesive team
for the coming big league season. But, of-
cially, MLB is a big supporter of this event, so
that mutes the criticism. Those players dont
just go to Team USA, but to Venezuela,
Mexico, Japan, Canada, even The
Netherlands.
The team hit the hardest this year is the
Milwaukee Brewers, who will lose 14 players
during spring training, 11 of them from their
40-man roster.
I get why a player would want to do it. I
understand that, Brewers manager Ron
Roenicke said. And were ne with them
going and doing that, but it just happens that
were getting hit with a lot of guys. Were
missing both catchers. Its really important to
us. Well just have to deal with it.
Torre said he had the same reaction back in
2006 when the rst World Baseball Classic
was held.
Im manager of the Yankees and Im say-
ing, Oh my goodness, what is this all about?
Because theyre taking our players away.
Now, he steps away from his duties as exec-
utive vice president of baseball operations in
the commissioners ofce to try to build a
winning team while at the same time giving
the players, especially the pitchers, the same
amount of work theyd get if they stayed in
spring training.

Hip implantsa bit more
likely to fail in women
By Carle K. Johnson
CHICAGO Hip replacements are slightly more likely to
fail in women than in men, according to one of the largest
studies of its kind in U.S. patients. The risk of the implants
failing is low, but women were 29 percent more likely than
men to need a repeat surgery within the rst three years.
The message for women considering hip replacement sur-
gery remains unclear. Its not known which models of hip
implants perform best in women, even though women make up
the majority of the more than 400,000 Americans who have
full or partial hip replacements each year to ease the pain and
loss of mobility caused by arthritis or injuries.
This is the rst step in what has to be a much longer-term
research strategy to gure out why women have worse experi-
ences, said Diana Zuckerman, president of the nonprot
National Research Center for Women & Families. Research
in this area could save billions of dollars and prevent patients
from experiencing the pain and inconvenience of surgeries to
x hip implants that go wrong.
Researchers looked at more than 35,000 surgeries at 46 hos-
pitals in the Kaiser Permanente health system. The research,
published Monday in JAMA Internal Medicine, was funded by
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
After an average of three years, 2.3 percent of the women
and 1.9 percent of the men had undergone revision surgery to
x a problem with the original hip replacement. Problems
included instability, infection, broken bones and loosening.
There is an increased risk of failure in women compared to
men, said lead author Maria Inacio, an epidemiologist at
Southern California Permanente Medical Group in San Diego.
This is still a very small number of failures.
Women tend to have smaller joints and bones than men, and
so they tend to need smaller articial hips. Devices with small-
er femoral heads the ball-shaped part of the ball-and-sock-
et joint in an articial hip are more likely to dislocate and
require a surgical repair.
That explained some, but not all, of the difference between
women and men in the study. Its not clear what else may have
contributed to the gap. Co-author Dr. Monti Khatod, an ortho-
pedic surgeon in Los Angeles, speculated that one factor may
be a greater loss of bone density in women.
The failure of metal-on-metal hips was almost twice as high
A recent study showed that switching childrens violent shows to educational TV can improve behavior.
By Donna Gordon Blankinship
SEATTLE Teaching parents to
switch channels from violent shows to
educational TV can improve
preschoolers behavior, even without
getting them to watch less, a study
found.
The results were modest and faded
over time, but may hold promise for
finding ways to help young children
avoid aggressive, violent behavior, the
study authors and other doctors said.
Its not just about turning off the tel-
evision. Its about changing the chan-
nel. What children watch is as impor-
tant as how much they watch, said
lead author Dr. Dimitri Christakis, a
pediatrician and researcher at Seattle
Childrens Research Institute.
The research was to be published
online Monday by the journal
Pediatrics.
The study involved 565 Seattle par-
ents, who periodically filled out TV-
watching diaries and questionnaires
measuring their childs behavior.
Half were coached for six months on
getting their 3-to-5-year-old kids to
watch shows like Sesame Street and
Dora the Explorer rather than more
violent programs like Power
Rangers. The results were compared
with kids whose parents who got
advice on healthy eating instead.
At six months, children in both
groups showed improved behavior, but
there was a little bit more improvement
in the group that was coached on their
TV watching.
By one year, there was no meaning-
ful difference between the two groups
overall. Low-income boys appeared to
get the most short-term benefit.
Thats important because they are at
the greatest risk, both for being perpe-
trators of aggression in real life, but
also being victims of aggression,
Christakis said.
The study has some flaws. The par-
ents werent told the purpose of the
study, but the authors concede they
probably figured it out and that might
have affected the results.
Before the study, the children aver-
aged about 1 1/2 hours of TV, video
and computer game watching a day,
with violent content making up about a
quarter of that time. By the end of the
study, that increased by up to 10 min-
utes. Those in the TV coaching group
increased their time with positive
shows; the healthy eating group

for women than in men. The once-popular
models were promoted by manufacturers as
being more durable than standard plastic or
ceramic joints, but several high-prole recalls
have led to a decrease in their use in recent
years.
Dont be fooled by hype about a new hip
product, said Zuckerman, who wrote an
accompanying commentary in the medical
journal. I would not choose the latest, great-
est hip implant if I were a woman patient. ...

watched more violent TV.
Nancy Jensen, who took part with her now
6-year-old daughter, said the study was a
wake-up call.
I didnt realize how much Elizabeth was
watching and how much she was watching
on her own, she said.
Jensen said her daughters behavior
improved after making changes, and she
continues to control what Elizabeth and her
2-year-old brother, Joe, watch. She also
decided to replace most of Elizabeths TV
time with games, art and outdoor fun.
During a recent visit to their Seattle home,
the children seemed more interested in play-
ing with blocks and running around outside
than watching TV.
Another researcher who was not involved
in this study but also focuses his work on
kids and television commended Christakis
for taking a look at the influence of positive
TV programs, instead of focusing on the
impact of violent TV.
I think its fabulous that people are look-
ing on the positive side. Because no ones
going to stop watching TV, we have to have
viable alternatives for kids, said Dr.
Michael Rich, director of the Center on
Media and Child Health at Childrens
Hospital Boston.

such large projects. Ultimately, California law
puts the need to x problems to the developer.
Developers are also given a chance to address
the issues under California law and must be
invited to mediation before legal proceedings
can really begin. Mediation has become a
clearly dened process.
Generally, these sorts of cases have a set
path.
When all is said and done, the issues in
most of our cases can be simplied as fol-
lowed. This is a complex, construction defect
case. The developer is strictly liable. The sub-
contractors owe indemnity. What are the prob-
lems? What are the most cost-effective ways
to repair the problems? How do we fund the
repair? wrote special master mediator
William Nagle in a September article for the
American Bar Association about the media-
tion process.
But getting to that point took time for one of
the owners who bought into Park Broadway.
The Park Broadway condos, located at 1388
Broadway and 1331-1371 El Camino Real,
features 109 units 13 live/work lofts and 96
residential spaces. Residents listed problems
with construction which were concealed by
temporary repairs in a 20-page suit led in
November 2011 against Millbrae Town Plaza,
L.P., Silverstone Communities LLC and
Delaware Limited Liability Company.
Advertisements at the time the building
opened put the unit prices as starting at
$599,000 and going into the high $800,000s.
First-time buyers, who preferred not to be
named, werent sure where to start. Luckily,
problems found throughout the building were
not in their exact unit but it did cause much
stress and concern at rst. Not all problems
are easily visible. At Park Broadway, for
example, mold was found inside the walls but
only once the walls were open up. And, that
wasnt found in all buildings.
Recently, the two sides reached a $3.5 mil-
lion settlement.
We are incredibly grateful that the team we
had in place helped us protect our owners, and
our homes. We know that these funds will
help restore our building to its original condi-
tion. We now can move forward knowing our
homes are safe, association President Yi
Wong said in a statement.
That team, which included The Miller Law
Firm, needed to take time to investigate prob-
lems in order to nd the real cost for xing the
issues.
Initial visual inspections by experts are the
rst step. But when we look further and open
up the stucco or around windows, there can be
very dangerous conditions like mold and dry
rot. It is just not something that an owner or a
board could know absent the important level
of testing, said Rachel Miller, senior partner
with The Miller Law Firm.
On the other hand, mediation continues on
the 88 South Broadway development.
The 88 South Broadway condos went on the
market in late 2006. More than 100 two-bed-
room homes ranging from 1,250 to 1,800
square feet were sold from $795,000 to $1.28
million, according to a 2007 San Mateo
County real estate study. In addition to the
two-bedroom homes, the building offers a
gym, community room and secure key-card
access. Construction of these luxury condos is
subpar, according to a 22-page lawsuit led in
January on behalf of the residential home-
owners association, 88 South Broadway
Association.
The construction violates building codes for
residential homes, according to the lawsuit. In
addition, temporary xes were used to cover
up larger problems which residents thought
would be covered through the associations
reserves, it reads. The nonprot association is
suing for the cost to actually make the repairs,
any relocation and storage necessary during
that time and any lost income from handling
the case as well as legal costs.

Morning-after pill use up
to 1 in 9 younger women
By Mike Stobbe
NEW YORK About 1 in 9 younger women have used
the morning-after pill after sex, according to the first gov-
ernment report to focus on emergency contraception since
its approval 15 years ago.
The results come from a survey of females ages 15 to 44.
Eleven percent of those whod had sex reported using a
morning-after pill. Thats up from 4 percent in 2002, only
a few years after the pills went on the market and adults
still needed a prescription.
The increased popularity is probably because it is easier
to get now and because of media coverage of controversial
efforts to lift the age limit for over-the-counter sales,
experts said. A prescription is still required for those
younger than 17 so it is still sold from behind pharmacy
counters.
In the study, half the women who used the pills said they
did it because theyd had unprotected sex. Most of the rest
cited a broken condom or worries that the birth control
method they used had failed.
White women and more educated women use it the most,
the research showed. Thats not surprising, said James
Trussell, a Princeton University researcher whos studied
the subject.
I dont think you can go to college in the United States
and not know about emergency contraception, said
Trussell, who has promoted its use and started a hot line.
One Pennsylvania college even has a vending machine
dispensing the pills.
The morning-after pill is basically a high-dose version of
birth control pills. It prevents ovulation and needs to be
taken within a few days after sex. The morning-after pill is
different from the so-called abortion pill, which is
designed to terminate a pregnancy.
At least five versions of the morning-after pills are sold
in the United States. They cost around $35 to $60 a dose at
a pharmacy, depending on the brand.
Since it is sold over-the-counter, insurers generally only
pay for it with a doctors prescription. The new Affordable
Care Act promises to cover morning-after pills, meaning
no co-pays, but again only with a prescription.
The results of the study were released Thursday by the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Its based on
in-person interviews of more than 12,000 women in 2006
through 2010. It was the agencys first in-depth report on
that issue, said Kimberly Daniels, the studys lead author.
The study also found:
Among different age groups, women in their early 20s
were more likely to have taken a morning-after pill. About
1 in 4 did.
About 1 in 5 never-married women had taken a morn-
ing-after pill, compared to just 1 in 20 married women.
Of the women who used the pill, 59 percent said they
had done it only once, 24 percent said twice, and 17 per-
cent said three or more times.
A woman who uses emergency contraception multiple
times needs to be thinking about a more regular form of
birth control, noted Lawrence Finer, director of domestic
research for the Guttmacher Institute, a nonprofit group
that does research on reproductive health.

BOSTON What happens to sh
that swim in waters tainted by traces of
drugs that people take? When its an
anti-anxiety drug, they become hyper,
anti-social and aggressive, a study
found. They even get the munchies.
It may sound funny, but it could threat-
en the sh population and upset the del-
icate dynamics of the marine environ-
ment, scientists say.
The findings, published online
Thursday in the journal Science, add to
the mounting evidence that minuscule
amounts of medicines in rivers and
streams can alter the biology and behav-
ior of sh and other marine animals.
I think people are starting to under-
stand that pharmaceuticals are environ-
mental contaminants, said Dana
Kolpin, a researcher for the U.S.
Geological Survey who is familiar with
the study.
Calling their results alarming, the
Swedish researchers who did the study
suspect the little drugged sh could
become easier targets for bigger sh
because they are more likely to venture
alone into unfamiliar places.
We know that in a predator-prey rela-
tion, increased boldness and activity
combined with decreased sociality ...
means youre going to be somebodys
lunch quite soon, said Gregory Moller,
a toxicologist at the University of Idaho
and Washington State University. It
removes the natural balance.
Researchers around the world have
been taking a close look at the effects of
pharmaceuticals in extremely low con-
centrations, measured in parts per bil-
lion. Such drugs have turned up in
waterways in Europe, the U.S. and else-
where over the past decade.
They come mostly from humans and
farm animals; the drugs pass through
their bodies in unmetabolized form.
These drug traces are then piped to water
treatment plants, which are not designed
to remove them from the cleaned water
that ows back into streams and rivers.
The Associated Press rst reported in
2008 that the drinking water of at least
51 million Americans carries low con-
centrations of many common drugs. The
ndings were based on questionnaires
sent to water utilities, which reported the
presence of antibiotics, sedatives, sex
hormones and other drugs.
The news reports led to congressional
hearings and legislation, more water
testing and more public disclosure. To
this day, though, there are no mandatory
U.S. limits on pharmaceuticals in water-
ways.
The research team at Swedens Umea
University used minute concentrations
of 2 parts per billion of the anti-anxiety
drug oxazepam, similar to concentra-
tions found in real waters. The drug
belongs to a widely used class of medi-
cines known as benzodiazepines that
includes Valium and Librium.
The team put young wild European
perch into an aquarium, exposed them to
these highly diluted drugs and then care-
fully measured feeding, schooling,
movement and hiding behavior. They
found that drug-exposed fish moved
more, fed more aggressively, hid less
and tended to school less than unex-
posed sh. On average, the drugged sh
were more than twice as active as the
others, researcher Micael Jonsson said.
The effects were more pronounced at
higher drug concentrations.
Our rst thought is, this is like a per-
son diagnosed with ADHD, said
Jonsson, referring to attention decit-
hyperactivity disorder. They become
asocial and more active than they should
be.
Tomas Brodin, another member of the
research team, called the drugs environ-
mental impact a global problem. We
nd these concentrations or close to
them all over the world, and its quite
possible or even probable that these
behavioral effects are taking place as we
speak, he said Thursday in Boston at
the annual meeting of the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science.

aware of Rankins complaints about
access and will consider them when
choosing whether to extend the agree-
ment with Global Tel*Link or go else-
where. Other considerations are cost and
also which provider is the best t for the
needs of the new jail tentatively set to
open in 2015, Sanchez said.
Global Tel*Links phone service and
equipment is the only method for
inmates to contact bail bond agencies
from the jail. The inmates may use pur-
chased calling cards or place collect
calls to any of the bail bond agencies
listed on a posted jail board near the
phones. Each call requires an initial con-
nection surcharge of $3.15 followed by
lower per-minute rates.
Global Tel*Link generates more
money by inmates making several short
calls rather than one long call to a single
agency so disrupted calls result in more
prots for the company, the suit claims.
When the calls did come through, the
quality was so poor inmates could not be
heard, according to the suit, which also
claims that since August 2008 the com-
pany refused to refund charges for the
dropped calls, placed the agencys
account in collections and ultimately cut
off phone service as retaliation for com-
plaining.
Rankin, who is president of the San
Mateo County Bail Agents Association,
said she has heard of similar problems
from others in the industry locally but
can only conrm with certainty what she
encountered.
A Global Tel*Link representative said
the company does not comment on liti-
gation matters.
Rankin, who said an afternoon can
bring in 10 inquiries to the agency, start-
ed thinking something was wrong when
she would go days without a call. Other
times, inmates would say they had a
tough time being connected. Rankin said
when she would hit the zero button to
accept the collect call it would drop.
I thought that was weird. If some-
body is calling a bail bonds company
they are in jail and need help so it didnt
make any sense that they would call and
hang up, Rankin said.
One inmate told her another man tried
unsuccessfully to call for eight days
before turning to one of the countys
other dozen agencies.
My heart dropped, she said. Im a
single mother supporting three daugh-
ters so this was devastating.
Rankin said she pays her bills on time,
often overpaying to ensure service is
never disrupted, and couldnt understand
the worsening phone service or the limi-
tations on the amount of collect calls she
was allowed to receive per month.
Rankin called the companys customer
service in October 2011 and an employ-
ee laughed and said, There is no other
company that serves San Mateo County
Jail, the suit states.
Out Nows service was also discon-
nected at least two and half months in
2011 and three months in 2012 leading
to a loss of hundreds of thousands of
dollars in revenue, the suit states.
Rankin said she complained more than
a dozen times, often only getting a
speedy resolution when the Sheriffs
Ofce contacted the company on her
behalf.
The allegedly intermittent service by
Global Tel*Link not only hurt the liveli-
hood of Rankin and her employees, she
said, but also violates inmates right to
free speech, provides false advertising
about reliable communication and
breaches its contract with San Mateo
County.
The current contract between the
county and company guarantees an
annual commission of $620,000 for the
Inmate Welfare Fund account that sup-
ports inmate programs and services,
Sanchez said.
Those include the library, education
and rehabilitative services.
In April 2012, Sheriff Greg Munks
told the Board of Supervisors in an
annual recap of the funds nances that it
received $858,790 in telephone commis-
sions between July 1, 2010 and June 30,
2011.

likely complete the work and bill the
family.
On Monday, a team of volunteers
helped the family load debris into trucks
for removal and identify what items will
go next. Much of the front yard has been
cleared,however, a boat, old Ford
Mustang, camper trailer and other large
objects line the side of the home leading
to the backyard, which is also littered
with debris.
The city is being heavy handed,
Mark Klaiber told the Daily Journal yes-
terday. Klaiber was even living in a tent
in the front yard for a while after his
family was ordered to move out.
The family received its rst abatement
notice for code problems way back in
1995 for the Lindbergh property, accord-
ing to the complaint the city led with
San Mateo County Superior Court.
The Klaibers were issued a building
permit in 2001 to construct a rst-oor
reduction and a second-oor addition on
the home but those permits have been
open for more than 10 years and a city
building inspector determined the work
should have taken no more than two
years to complete, according to the
claim.
An inspection of the inside of the
home in April revealed Sheetrock miss-
ing throughout, unsafe electrical wiring,
debris and combustibles piled up exces-
sively and blocking exits, no handrails
on the stairwell and holes in the stair
landings with unnished work, accord-
ing to the complaint.
What do they want me to do, nish
the work on the home or clear the prop-
erty? The property could have been
cleared before if the city hadnt required
me to spend time on the interior,
Klaiber said.
Neighbors complained to the city for
years about the property because of the
constant debris and construction main-
tained on the property, according to the
complaint.
The family was asked to give the city
a detailed timeline in 2006 of the pro-
jects completion and threatened legal
action to have it comply with the citys
municipal code. The family said at the
time the work would be completed in
190 days but it never was.
Some of the most recent code enforce-
ment violations the family were hit with
include use of the property as a dumping
ground; hazardous or unsanitary premis-
es, debris, junk, garbage and vegetation
accumulations on the property; re haz-
ard, excessive accumulation of storage,
junk and/or debris on the property; inad-
equate exits, excessive accumulation of
storage, junk creating potential safe
egress hazard; and storage in public
view, junk, debris, construction materi-
als stored in public view.
A longtime friend of the Klaibers,
Gary Tagliaco, assisted the family yes-
terday. They lled a pickup truck with
metal to be recycled and were also work-
ing on lling a dump truck with debris.
Tagliaco is not sure how many loads
it will take to clear the property.
I think they are getting to the tipping
point, he said. Theyve cleared out a
lot and now can take a look at what items
to keep and how to store them.

ORDINANCE NO. 743
CITY OF MILLBRAE, COUNTY
OF SAN MATEO
STATE OF CALIFORNIA
ORDINANCE TO MODIFY CHAPTER 8.05
OF THE MILLBRAE MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATING TO
WATER CHARGES
WHEREAS, a reliable supply of potable water is essential to
the public health, safety and welfare of the people and econ-
omy; and
WHEREAS, Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution
declares that a City may make and enforce within its limits all
local, police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations
not in conflict with general laws; and
WHEREAS, in light of a city's broad authority, the City of Mill-
brae has the power to establish rules and regulations for the
distribution and use of water supplies and utility bill pay-
ments; and
WHEREAS, the adoption and enforcement of this Ordinance
is necessary to update and enhance the effectiveness of the
regulations by which the City of Millbrae manages its utility
bill payments.
THEREFORE, IT IS ORDAINED by the City Council of the
City of Millbrae as follows:
SECTION 1. AMENDMENT OF MILLBRAE MUNICIPAL
CODE . Section 8.05.0660 entitled "Monthly Water Charges"
in Chapter 8.05 is hereby amended to read as follows:
8.05.0660 Monthly Water Charges.
All customers are responsible for paying (A) a monthly water
service charge based on meter size and type of water service
(residential or commercial/industrial); and (B) a monthly con-
sumption charge per unit applied to the quantity of water that
passes through the meter. The charges set forth in Attach-
ment A, City Schedule of Rates and Fees, attached to the or-
dinance codified in this chapter reflect the charges in place at
time of enactment of the ordinance codified in this chapter.
Adjustments to these charges will take place by resolution of
the City Council and any updated charges will be contained
in the separate city-wide fee schedule.
Water service in all cases, shall be in the name of the owner
of the property. The owner of the property may authorize, in
writing, that service may be billed to a second party, such as
a property tenant. The owner of the property remains respon-
sible for payment of all amounts due for water service. If the
owner of the property has authorized a second party to re-
ceive billing for service, the second party must complete an
application for water service and submit that form to the City.
SECTION 2. CEQA DETERMINATION.
The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to
the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources
Code Section 2100 et seq.) (CEQA) pursuant to Section
15307 (the activity assures the maintenance, restoration, en-
hancement, or protection of a natural resource) and Section
15378(b)(2) (the activity is not a project as it involves general
policy and procedure making) of the State CEQA Guidelines,
California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, since it
makes and implements policies and procedures to ensure
that water resources are conserved by reducing water con-
sumption through the establishment of a structure for plan-
ning, designing, installing, maintaining and managing water-
efficient landscapes.
Section 3. Severability.
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this
Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitu-
tional by a decision of any court of competent jurisdiction,
such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares
that it would have passed this Ordinance and each and every
section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase not declared
invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any por-
tion of the Ordinance would be subsequently declared invalid
or unconstitutional.
SECTION 4. EFFECTIVE DATE; PUBLICATION .
This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect thirty days
from and after its passage. At least five days prior to its adop-
tion and within fifteen days after its adoption, a summary of
this Ordinance shall be published once in a newspaper of
general circulation printed and published in the County of
San Mateo and circulated in the City of Millbrae.
INTRODUCED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the
City of Millbrae held on January 8, 2013.
