land at Mills
Design Tech High School previously
wanted to end up in Burlingame
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A new charter school focused on hands-on projects and
design concepts could soon be occupying space at Mills
High School starting this fall.
Although Design Tech High Schools leadership wanted it
to be housed at Burlingame High School, the San Mateo
Union High School District said there isnt space at the
growing Burlingame school. Last week, the district
approved sending a letter to the charter offering six class-
rooms, each with 960 square feet of space, at the Mills loca-
tion for the new school. The school initially requested at
least eight classrooms and the district previously had
offered ve.

The innovative Draper University of
Heroes in downtown San Mateo has been
running on a temporary permit and city of-
cials and citizens want to see the school fol-
low through with its terms of approval by
completing the agreed upon campus
improvements.
Theres not a lot of things, but were a
little frustrated that theyre not completed,
Councilman Jack
Matthews said. I think
these things are all solv-
able and its our desire as
a city and as a council to
partner with Draper and
to make them successful
and be an addition to our
downtown. And working
together, I think we can
make everything better.
For the second time this year, city of-
cials will sit down with
Draper staff Tuesday to
discuss the landscape
improvements in the
alleyway between Third
and Fourth avenues and
the need for pop-up retail
space at the Collective
building.
The citys Downtown
Plan originated during
the dot-com boom and calls for ground oor
retail space, City Manager Larry Patterson
said.
Drapers trending pop-up retail concept
was intended to satisfy the citys zoning
code, yet it hasnt come to fruition and the
university appears to be using the
Collective building as office space,
Patterson said.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Acollege student and South San Francisco
native is getting a taste of entrepreneurship
this summer with an internship as a manager
of his own painting company.
Vincent Bregman, 20, is a sophomore at
University of California at Santa Cruz and
began work as an intern this February with
College Works Painting, a company based
out of Irvine, Calif. that teaches undergradu-
ate students how to manage their own paint-
ing businesses.
Its a great chance to get experience,
said Bregman, who graduated from El
Camino High School. Its very difcult to
get experience. Its not easy to get an intern-
ship these days if you dont have any prior
experience.
The program allows him to start his own
exterior painting business on the Peninsula,
primarily working in San Mateo. He is in
charge of marketing for the company and
hiring employees through September.
Youre given an opportunity to run essen-
tially a franchise, he said. Im interested
in the business management side of it.
Bregman is a history and, possibly, poli-
tics double major and wants to own a restau-
rant one day, possibly some kind of diner.
Hes not sure what lies beyond his ambition
to own a restaurant but denitely has an
interest in entrepreneurship.
Mostly stemming from a lack of desire to
have to work for someone else on their
schedule, I have always wanted to be my own
boss, just based on various work experi-
ences I have had and stories Ive heard from
others that I know. Specically, hearing the
stories and successes of Elon Musk and Jeff
Bezos, the CEOs of Tesla and Amazon
respectively, has been a great motivator and
source of inspiration, he said.
Last summer, Bregman worked for a pro-
motional marketing company in San
Carlos.
Its my rst time running a business, he
said. Its totally different work.
Bregman sees a lot of benets to the
internship, including being able to gain
experience, marketing, learning business
management, relating to customers, net-
working and building up condence.
His prot will be based off how well he
runs his venture, he said.
If youre interested in painting services
from Bregman, he can be contacted by email
at vebregman@yahoo.com or by phone at
218-8830.
Man flashes woman
after asking for directions
Aman exposed himself to a woman walk-
ing her dog in San Bruno after he asked her
for directions.
Awoman was walking her dog on Sneath
Lane near Siskiyou Court around 7:16 p.m.
Sunday when a man pulled alongside her in
his car, according to the San Bruno Police
Department.
He asked her for directions to Tanforan
and, when she leaned over, she noticed the
man was not wearing pants, according to
police.
The man then drove off heading west on
Sneath Lane toward Skyline Boulevard,
according to police. The man is described as
Filipino in his early 20s with a dark com-
plexion and short black hair. He was wearing
a red and white sports jersey and was driving
a white four-door older model car that may
have been a Toyota, according to police.

San Bruno Police at (650) 616-7100.

while in a baseball field in South San
Francisco Sunday.

Increasing use of electronic cigarettes
paired with minimal government oversight
of the industry has some politicians calling
for federal support while company represen-
tatives worry misconstrued data is causing
consumers to fear what may be a better alter-
native.
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo,
has called on Congress to investigate the
health effects of e-cigarettes and the indus-
trys presence in the marketplace.
Despite clear health concerns, the
booming e-cigarette industry has flown
under the radar of the federal government. E-
cigarettes are being marketed as a way for
smokers to kick the habit but may in the
end prove to be just another addictive and
dangerous device with severe health risks,
Speier said in a prepared statement.
Cynthia Cabrera, executive director of the
Smoke Free Alternative Trade Association,
represents a vast group of e-cigarette manu-
facturers and retailers. Certain regulations
are appropriate but ofcials who misinter-
pret data give the industry a bad name,
Cabrera said.
E-cigarettes are battery-operated devices
containing cartridges lled with liquid nico-
tine that create vapor, instead of smoke,
when inhaled. They are touted as an alterna-
tive without the broader health risks associ-
ated with traditional cig-
arettes.
Because e-cigarettes do
not contain tobacco,
unless theyre marketed
for therapeutic purposes,
the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration doesnt
regulate them.
E-cigarettes have not
been fully studied there-
fore consumers dont know the potential
health risks and how much nicotine or other
potentially harmful chemicals are inhaled
during use, according to the FDAs website.
Speier sent a letter March 27 to the House
Committee on Oversight and Government
Reform, expressing her concerns about a
lack of FDAoversight, limited health-relat-
ed testing and the need for regulations to
prevent children from being exposed to e-
cigarettes.
Several California districts and cities
have begun to classify e-cigarettes as
tobacco products and are now treated like
traditional cigarettes effectively banning
them in bars, restaurants and businesses;
yet there are no national e-cigarette stan-
dards, Speier stated.
With reports of nicotine poisoning from
e-cigarettes and the increasing rate of youth
who are trying them, its imperative
Congress act immediately, Speier said in
her statement.
Data regarding e-cigarettes and the indus-
try is often misconstrued and much of what
Speier is citing is from a recent article in
the New York Times, Cabrera said.
The news story published March 23,
2014, focuses on the nicotine liquid that a
consumer enhales when smoking an e-ciga-
rette. The author cites data from health care
experts regarding the effects from exposure,
the rates of children suffering nicotine poi-
soning and the costs of the liquid.
We believe appropriate and proportional
regulation is ne and were actually work-
ing on that. But regulation based on a very
awed and distorted argument in the New
York Times is not appropriate, Cabrera
said.
Yet studies clearly show that although e-
cigarettes do not contain tobacco, the nico-
tine vapor exhaled during use contains car-
cinogens and toxic chemicals, Speier
wrote.
Because e-cigarettes are not tobacco prod-
ucts, they are a cleaner option for those try-
ing to reduce or switch from traditional cig-
arettes, Cabrera said.
There are a lot of studies already and
more studies will continue to be done and
thats ne. Theres no combustion in these
products and we know that combusted
tobacco is what kills people. So if theres
not combustion and no tobacco, we already
know right off the bat that were eliminat-
ing thousands of toxins, Cabrera said.
At the center of this debate is the concen-
tration of nicotine in e-cigarette liquid.
Most e-liquids range between 1.8 to 2.4
percent concentrations; however, deadlier
7.2 to 10 percent concentrations are widely
available over the Internet, Speier wrote.
Cabrera was contacted and cited in the
New York Times article where this data is
from. She says the story focused on a single
brand that was not representative of indus-
try practices. The vast majority of con-
sumers have access to e-liquids that range
between 0 and 2.4 percent nicotine concen-
trations, Cabrera said.
Many children are exposed to e-liquid,
even if its accidental, and are suffering
severe nicotine poisoning, Speier wrote.
In January and February 2014, the
Oklahoma Poison Control Center reported
23 cases of children ages 4 and under suffer-
ing from nicotine poisoning, Speier wrote.
Last year the Minnesota Poison Control
Center reported 29 e-cigarette poisoning
cases involving children ages 2 and under. A

A San Mateo man accused of robbing a
teen girl of $1 after entering her backyard
and pointing an Airsoft pistol will stand
trial in July.
Matthew Nguyen, 22, pleaded not guilty
to charges of vandalism, robbery and assault
in the Feb. 26 incident on the 3200 block of
Verdun Avenue.
After entering his plea, Nguyen was

matched the girls description.
According to the girl, she was sitting at
her dining room table inside the home when
she looked up from her homework to see a
man in a ski mask standing outside the win-
dow pointing a gun. The
man yelled for her to just
get money and she
screamed for her father
who called police. The
girl pulled a $1 bill from
her pocket and handed it
to the man through the
door before he ed.
When arrested, Nguyen
had the dollar and airsoft
pistol, according to
police.
While being booked at the San Mateo
police station, Nguyen became enraged and
threw a punch at an ofcer but missed and

SAN FRANCISCO Asiana Airlines
acknowledged in documents released
Monday that its pilots failed to correct their
fatally slow approach to a landing at San
Francisco International Airport but also
blamed the maker of the jet, saying it did not
automatically maintain a safe speed.
U.S. accident investigators made public a
ling in which the South Korea-based airline
asserted that the Boeing 777 had major
design aws that led the pilots to believe it
would keep ying at the proper speed and
that failed to warn the cockpit crew in time
when it did not.
Boeing Co. countered in its own ling
with the National Transportation Safety
Board that the airplane performed as expect-
ed, and the pilots were to blame for the July
6 crash because they stuck with a troubled
landing.
The plane slammed into a seawall at the
beginning of a runway during its final
approach. The impact ripped off its back and
scattered pieces of the jet as it spun and skid-
ded to a stop.
In all, 304 of the 307 people aboard sur-
vived. Coroners ofcials concluded that one
of three teens who died, Ye Meng Yuan, was
run over and killed by a rescue vehicle as she
lay on the tarmac.
Asiana acknowledged in its NTSB ling
that the crew failed to monitor air speed in
the moments before the crash and should
have aborted the landing for another go
around.
The probable cause of this accident was
the ight crews failure to monitor and main-
tain a minimum safe airspeed during a nal
approach, Asiana conceded.
However, Asiana argued that the pilots and
co-pilot reasonably believed the automatic
throttle would keep the plane going fast
enough to reach the runway when in fact
the auto throttle was effectively shut off after
the pilot idled it to correct an unexplained
climb earlier in the landing.
The airline said the plane should have been
designed so the auto throttle would maintain
the proper speed after the pilot put it in
hold mode.
Instead, the auto throttle did not indicate
that the plane had stopped maintaining the
set air speed, and an alert sounded too late for
the pilots to avoid the crash, Asiana said.
The airline added that U.S. and European avi-
ation ofcials have warned Boeing about the
issue, but it has not been changed.
In most other planes, idling the auto throt-
tle would not disengage it for the rest of a
ight, aviation safety consultant John Cox
said.
Cox, president and CEO of Safety
Operating Systems and a former airline pilot
and accident investigator, likened it to the
cruise control in a car. If a driver sets it for 55
mph and then accelerates to pass a car, the
driver would expect the cruise control to re-
engage when the speed slows to 55 mph
again.
The ight crew had an expectation that
the auto throttle system was going to do cer-
tain things that it did not do, Cox said.
Although they were trained about it, it was
not overly intuitive.
Asiana says jet partly to blame in San
Francisco International Airport crash

Police: Man dead after
shooting at Georgia university
COLUMBUS, Ga. Police at Georgias
Columbus State University fatally shot a
man over the weekend after ofcers respond-
ed to a report of someone with a gun, author-
ities said. Alawyer for the mans family said
Monday that the man was unarmed and a vis-
itor on campus.
Zikarious Jaquan Flint, 20, died Sunday
after receiving two gunshot wounds,
Muscogee County Coroner Buddy Bryan
said Monday.
Flint wasnt a student at the university and
no one else was hurt in the shooting Sunday
afternoon at the campus, located about 100
miles southwest of Atlanta near the Alabama
state line.
University Police Chief Rus Drew said
ofcers were called at 2:35 p.m. Sunday and
arrived three minutes later to an area near
some campus apartments and began pursu-
ing a man on foot.
There was a short foot chase and at some
point the suspect turned and faced the of-
cers and shots were red, Drew said.

mudslide that has killed at least 24 people
have reached $10 million, Gov. Jay Inslee
said Monday in a letter asking the federal
government for a major disaster declara-
tion.
In seeking additional federal help follow-
ing one of the deadliest landslides in U.S.
history, Inslee said about 30 families need
assistance with housing, along with per-
sonal and household goods. The estimated
losses include nearly $7 million in struc-
tures and more than $3 million in their con-
tents, Inslees letter said.

SIMFEROPOL, Crimea Russia said
Monday it was pulling a battalion of sever-
al hundred troops away from the Ukrainian
border but kept tens of thousands in place,
prompting a worried response from the Kiev
government about what the U.S. warned was
still a tremendous buildup.
Russia moved quickly to strengthen its
economic hold on Crimea, with Prime
Minister Dmitry Medvedev arriving in the
newly annexed peninsula with promises of
funds for improved power supplies, water
lines, education and pensions for the elder-
l y.
Russias takeover of the strategic Black
Sea region, its troop buildup near Ukraines
border and its attempts to compel constitu-
tional changes in Ukraine have markedly
raised tensions with the West and prompted
fears that Moscow intends to invade other
areas of its neighbor.
However, Russian President Vladimir
Putin told German Chancellor Angela
Merkel in a phone call Monday that some
troops were being withdrawn from the
Ukraine border, Merkels ofce said. The
withdrawal involved a battalion of about
500 troops, Russian news reports said.
The U.S. reacted cautiously to the Russian
troop movement, with Secretary of Defense
Chuck Hagel saying that tens of thou-
sands of Russian forces still remained
along the Ukrainian border, a situation he
called a tremendous buildup.
The new government in Ukraine said the
action only increased its uneasiness about
Russias intentions.
We have information that Russia is car-
rying out incomprehensible maneuvers on
the border with Ukraine, Ukrainian
Foreign Ministry spokesman Yevgen
Perebyinis said. Troops in some places are
moving backward, some of them are mov-
ing forward. Which is why, obviously, we
are worried by these movements of armed
forces. We have no clear explanation from
the Russian side about the aim of these
movements.

PERTH, Australia Although it has
been slow, difficult and frustrating so far,
the search for the missing Malaysia
Airlines jet is nowhere near the point of
being scaled back, Australias prime min-
ister pledged Monday.
The three-week hunt for Flight 370 has
turned up no sign of the Boeing 777,
which vanished March 8 with 239 people
bound for Beijing from Kuala Lumpur. Ten
planes and 11 ships found no sign of the
missing plane in the search zone in the
southern Indian Ocean, about 1,850 kilo-
meters (1,150 miles) west of Australia,
officials said.
The search area has evolved as experts
analyzed Flight 370s limited radar and
satellite data, moving from the seas off
Vietnam, to the waters west of Malaysia
and Indonesia, and then to several areas
west of Australia. The search zone is now
254,000 square kilometers (98,000 square
miles), about a 2 1/2-hour flight from
Perth.
Items recovered so far were discovered to
be flotsam unrelated to the Malaysian
plane. Several orange-colored objects
spotted by plane Sunday turned out to be
fishing equipment.

SEOUL, South Korea North and South
Korea red hundreds of artillery shells into
each others waters Monday in a are-up of
animosity that forced residents of ve front-
line South Korean islands to evacuate to shel-
ters for several hours, South Korean ofcials
said.
The exchange of re into the Yellow Sea
followed Pyongyangs sudden announcement
that it would conduct live-re drills in seven
areas north of the Koreas disputed maritime
boundary. North Korea routinely test-res
artillery and missiles into the ocean but
rarely discloses those plans in advance. The
announcement was seen as an expression of
Pyongyangs frustration at making little
progress in its recent push to win outside aid.
North Korea red 500 rounds of artillery
shells over more than three hours, about 100
of which fell south of the sea boundary, South
Korean Defense Ministry spokesman Kim
Min-seok said. South Korea responded by r-
ing 300 shells into North Korean waters, he
said.
No shells from either side were red at any
land or military installations, but Kim called
the Norths artillery ring a provocation
aimed at testing Seouls security posture.
There was no immediate comment from North
Korea.
In Washington, White House spokesman
Jonathan Lalley called North Koreas actions
dangerous and provocative and said they
would further aggravate tensions in the
region.
Mondays exchange was relatively mild in
the history of animosity and violence
between the Koreas, but there is worry in
Seoul that an increasingly dissatised North
Korea could repeat the near-daily barrage of
war rhetoric it carried out last spring, when
tensions soared as Pyongyang threatened
nuclear strikes on Washington and Seoul in
response to condemnation of its third nuclear
test.
Koreas trade fire; island residents in shelters
the demographic. Current adult smokers are
the demographic for this product, Cabrera
said. In my opinion, what is actually [dam-
aging] or could be dangerous for a child is
that their parents are denied the option to
switching to an alternative that does not
have the same health risks that tobacco
products do.
Yet with a lack of denitive data, Speier
believes ensuring the health effects are fully
studied and overseeing the industrys role in
the marketplace is critical.
It is in the public interest for this com-
mittee to hold a hearing to investigate the
proper role of the FDA and Congress where
it concerns the need for regulation of the e-
cigarette industry, Speier wrote. At the
very least, the issues such as marketing to
children, the child-proong of containers
and labeling requirements should be at the
top of this discussion.

Theres a bubble going through the
Burlingame Elementary School District. We
have to look at our long-term projections
with our capacity. In the 2014-15 school
year it will ow into our schools and con-
tinue to grow for the next 15 years. We dont
anticipate the growth pattern to be as
strong at Mills and its a beautiful campus.
Meanwhile, Ken Montgomery, the
schools director and current assistant prin-
cipal at Capuchino High School, said the
school has not ofcially accepted the offer
at this time, but there is a very strong like-
lihood that it will be located at Mills.
We continue to have a very collaborative
relationship with the [district] and share a
common mission of more quality schools
for [district] students, he said in an email
to the Daily Journal. At this time our board
has not yet reviewed the most recent [dis-
trict] offer.
The 520-student school will open with a
freshmen class in August, then add on class-
es each year following. The educational
model of the school emphasizes knowl-
edge in action and extreme personaliza-
tion. The school contended that a majority
of the schools students will reside in the
Burlingame High school attendance area, so
that is the appropriate comparison school.
Recent submissions by Design Tech
show that the largest component of its
future enrollment actually resides in the
geographical area of the Sequoia Union
High School District, according to the let-
ter approved by the district and signed by
Superintendent Scott Laurence last week.
Given the geographical complexity of
such an analysis, which your submission
does not show was undertaken merely in
determining that a majority of students
would otherwise attend Burlingame High
School, we continue to believe the entirety
of the comprehensive high schools is the
appropriate comparison group for this pur-
pose.
Proposition 39, passed by California vot-
ers in 2000, requires districts to make rea-
sonably equivalent facilities available to
charters. Mills also contains eating facili-
ties, a gymnasium, a library, a courtyard, a
theater, playing fields, equipped science
classrooms and administrative and teacher
lounge space. School districts are allowed
to charge charter schools for use of district
facilities under Proposition 39. In its pre-
liminary proposal, the district declined to
charge a per-square-foot pro rata share of
facilities costs for this facility, and instead
offered to provide the facilities substantial-
ly rent free in order to instead recoup the
cost of supervisorial oversight, not to
exceed 3 percent of the revenue of the char-
ter school pursuant to section 47613(b) of
the California Education Code.
Please advise me immediately if you
secure facilities other than those offered at
Mills High School, Laurence wrote in the
letter. I will bring before the board any
request you might have for an exchange of
facilities use costs in lieu of the use of the
Mills High School facility offered herein.
School board members are enthusiastic
about the new school.
I think complies with districts Prop. 39
obligations, said Trustee Peter Hanley.
Im excited about the high school. Theyre
offering to bring something thats innova-
tive and new to the district. Its an addition-
al choice for parents to access in this com-
munity and it will be exciting to see it
develop over the next few years.
In July 2013, Design Tech received
$100,000 in planning grant funding from
Next Generation Learning Challenges for
help with costs associated with opening the
new high school.

OPINION 9
NSA spying
Editor,
Cyber wars and spying have inten-
sied, creating greater mistrust
amongst our allies and corporate
competitors. Classied documents
released by Edward Snowden show
that the NSAis targeting the Chinese
Huaweis network in Shenzhen and
monitored the companys top execu-
tives.
The NSAis recording every single
phone call made in an undisclosed
foreign country. Asurveillance sys-
tem called MYSTIC stores the bil-
lions of phone conversations for up
to 30 days. Ashkan Soltani, who co-
wrote the Washington Post expose on
MYSTIC, revealed how the NSAuses
Google cookies to pinpoint targets
for hacking and how the NSAsecretly
broke into the main communications
links that connect Yahoo and Google
data centers around the world.
This is another example of U.S.
government overreach. Instead of tar-
geting its very powerful surveillance
systems on terrorists and spies,
theyre doing this bulk collection
that sweeps up a lot of data of inno-
cent people. Responding to mounting
outrage of their citizens, foreign gov-
ernments are shunning Americas
cloud computer industry deemed to be
unsafe to the prying eyes of the NSA.
For example, Microsoft has lost cus-
tomers, including the government of
Brazil. IBM is spending more than $1
billion to build data centers overseas
to safeguard data of their foreign cus-
tomers. Former President Jimmy
Carter has revealed he limits his own
email use out of fear hes spied on by
U.S. intelligence. In an interview
with NBC News, Carter says he
avoids emails when corresponding
with foreign leaders instead using
old-fashioned snail mail.

Profits take
precedence over lives at GM
Editor,
It took 13 deaths and hundreds of
complaints for the Justice Department
to nally launch a criminal investiga-
tion into why the largest automaker,
General Motors, ignored deadly safety
defects in its compact cars. Contrary
to earlier assertions that the problem
was rst discovered in 2003, GM now
admits that the ignition switch on its
Saturn Ion stalled in 2001. The faulty
ignition switch suddenly cuts off
power, leaving bewildered drivers
with no engine power, no power
steering, no breaks and no air bags.
Six GM models made from 2001 to
2007 are affected. Federal regulators
also failed to take action despite
receiving hundreds of complaints
from angry drivers. Last month GM
nally announced a massive recall of
1.6 million vehicles. Longtime con-
sumer advocate Ralph Nader com-
mented that timidity exists in the
National Highway Trafc Safety
Administration, which encourages a
laissez-faire culture. It is also grossly
underfunded $45 million a year,
compared to $650 million a year that
taxpayers pay for guarding the
embassy in Baghdad. Another key
factor that contributed to GMs appar-
ent lack of concern was its bankrupt-
cy and subsequent tax-payer bailout
in 2009, which immunized it from all
product liability lawsuits. It is tragic
that it took so many deaths and near
fatalities for GM to respond. It seems
once again prots take precedence
over peoples lives.

Unrivaled human tragedy
Editor,
Mr. Traynors letter to the editor in
the March 25 edition of the Daily
Journal was exceptionally poignant
when he describes how the media is
focusing on the San Diego Zoos
efforts to save the life of a newborn
baby gorilla while ignoring the plight
of so many of our youngest human
souls. Clearly, our zoos have a moral
imperative to take great care of the ani-
mal life entrusted to them. Yet, there is
seldom (if ever) a national media story
regarding the enormous loss of human
life due to abortion. According to the
Center for Disease Control statistics,
there were an estimated 1 million plus
abortions in the United States last year
alone. Thankfully, the number of abor-
tions per year has recently been on a
downward trajectory.
But what does it say about us that we
devote our attention to the efforts to
save a baby gorilla in distress yet say
nothing about the 2,700 human lives
that are disposed of each and every
day? Mr. Traynor says the electronic
media is turning a blind eye to the
tragic story of countless unborn chil-
dren with immortal souls and limitless
human potential who are ghting
every hour of the day for the right to
life. Is there anything sadder than
that? Regardless of the rationale used,
there is no escaping the fact that there
is massive human destruction occurring
within our midst.

Deseret News, Salt Lake City, Utah
T
he rising rate of unemploy-
ment among teenagers is the
perfect storm of social and
economic trends that is clouding the
future for American youth, particularly
young men. Jobs are harder to come
by. This scarcity is likely to continue
as technology and automation replace
jobs traditionally held by those rst
entering the workforce, and as long as
government tinkers with policies that
make it harder for companies to hire
young people.
The consequences may be difcult
to grapple with: young men who are
unable to nd employment and voca-
tional skills early in life are less like-
ly to embark on a career path that
ensures stability in adulthood.
One reason for hope is the pro-
grams springing up to provide
apprenticeships for teenagers to gain
real-world work experience as part of
their secondary or post-high school
educations.
In Utah, the rate of teenage employ-
ment is relatively high, according to
an analysis by the Brookings
Institute. The Provo area enjoys the
nations highest rate of employment
among 16-19 year olds, at about 49
percent. The national rate is around
26 percent, down from about 45 per-
cent in 2000. The higher job rate in
Utah is attributed to several factors,
primarily the inuence of an overall
low unemployment rate, a higher-
than-average number of youth per
capita, and a culture of attaining part-
time employment at an early age.
That culture provides benets to
individuals and to society at large. To
ensure that it continues, educators in
Utah and nationwide should consider
the kinds of initiatives to partner
schools and businesses in apprentice-
ship programs. Existing programs
could be expanding to a larger scale,
extending their benet s.
Similarly, both local and national
policy-makers must remember not to
do harm to teenage employment
prospects. Specically, raising the
national or state minimum wage laws
are certain to narrow the opportuni-
ties available for younger workers.

Fools gold
T
he Sen. Leland Yee asco came just a tad early to
coincide with April Fools Day, the annual oppor-
tunity every April 1 to prank and joke and try
pulling the wool over the eyes of the gullible.
If the afdavit is to be believed and theres no reason
yet not to Yee certainly has that last caveat down when
it comes to his colleagues and constituents. Yet sadly,
Yees fantastical dilemma is far from a laughing matter.
Except if you ponder the nickname Shrimp Boy. That
alone is pretty hilarious. Note to self: childhood nick-
names, like unfortunately themed T-shirts in mug shots,
will always come back to
haunt you. Criminal mas-
terminds, plan according-
l y.
The Shrimp Boy aspect
itself is a gold mine. The
name. The tweets. The
Facebook hot tub photos.
The news anchors and pun-
dits trying to keep a
straight face while refer-
ring to him as such. This
sad day for public trust and
honesty is a great day for
budding comics and screen-
writers mining reality for
ctional inspiration.
Shrimp Boy and Uncle Leland and gunrunning aside,
the apparent fall of yet another elected leader is nothing
to joke about. Unless, of course, we are talking about the
part where a letter of support from him has the going rate
of $10,000. That price tag draws a guffaw or two. Jeez,
Ill knock one out for $50. Maybe $60 if Im expected to
use the big fancy words.
Then theres his apparent envy of the undercover of-
cers life. Yee allegedly wanted to throw everything to the
wind and run away to the Philippines. Im sure his wife
and children are thrilled to know how much they count.
Its also hard not to chuckle a little looking back at the
causes and legislation for which Yee took up arms, pun
fully intended. The rearm legislation obviously smacks
of hypocrisy. But what about that 2005 push to strength-
en cleanliness standards for nail salons? Was Yee lying to
Paula Abdul and the California people all along, publicly
demanding hygiene while secretly trading in dirty cuticle
clippers and sketchy emery boards for the right price?
Sure, Yee and company might be looking at prison time
but the mani-pedi set is facing an unknown future with
every buff and polish.
Ah, this indictment is like journalist Christmas. Dont
think we news scribes wont milk it for all its worth
at least until the next public gure shows off clay feet.
Chances are, though, its going to take quite a fall from
grace to knock Yees arrest out of top billing for best
political scandal in recent memory. Straight bribery is so
pass. Arms trafcking to help wipe away one campaign
price tag and nance another, however? Most probably
never thought Yee had it in him.
Yet again, this shouldnt be funny. Staffers are in
employment jeopardy, constituents want to know if the
seat will just sit empty for the remaining year until it dis-
solves and taxpayers are fuming that Yee and the two
other suspended senators are allowed to continue collect-
ing paychecks while their legal drama plays out. Local
candidates for the June ballot who received an endorse-
ment from Yee scrambled to remove mentions and photos
from websites and campaign materials while around the
county many are quick to say they never really knew or
liked Yee anyway. If thats true, though, as one ofcials

Big movers

NEW YORK If 2013 was a year
where the stock market went straight
up, 2014 has started off as a year where
the stock market moves sideways.
There was plenty for investors to
worry about in the rst three months of
the year, from tensions between
Russia and the West over Ukraine and
the winter storms that froze the U.S.
economy in January and February. As a
result, investors focused their atten-
tion on buying and holding safe
investments, such as bonds, dividend-
paying stocks, and gold.
The Standard & Poors 500 rose 1.3
percent in the rst three months of
2013. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age lost 0.7 percent so far this year,
and the Nasdaq composite is up 0.5
percent.
It was S&P 500s its fth-straight
quarterly gain. It was also the indexs
worst quarter since the fourth quarter of
2012.
I think this bull market is starting
to show signs of fatigue, said Wayne
Wilbanks, chief investment ofcer at
Wilbanks, Smith, Thomas in Norfolk,
Va., which manages roughly $2.4 bil-
lion in assets.
It was all about safety this quarter.
Utility and health care stocks, which
typically pay larger-than-average divi-
dends and are less volatile than other
stocks, rose 9 percent and 5.5 percent,
respectively. Those two sectors were
among the laggards last year.
Riskier growth-oriented stocks, par-
ticularly in biotechnology, consumer
discretionary and technology stocks,
fared the worst. Among the biggest
decliners this quarter, Twitter fell 27
percent, biotechnology company
Celgene dropped 17 percent and
Amazon.com fell 16 percent.
Bonds were widely expected to do
poorly in 2014 because the Federal
Reserve was winding down its bond-
buying program and the U.S. economy
was improving. Instead, they did bet-
ter than the stock market. The
Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, a
broad measure of the bond market that
includes Treasurys, corporate and other
types of bonds, is up 1.9 percent this
quarter.
Even gold did well this quarter. After
getting slammed in 2013, gold rose
nearly 7 percent in the rst quarter of
2013.
Investors started off the quarter cau-
tiously optimistic. The S&P 500 had
risen 32 percent in 2013, including
dividends, and was trading at an all-
time high early in the year. There were
signs that the U.S. economic recovery
was accelerating. Few investors
expected 2013s momentum to hold
into this year, however.
We had such an incredible year last
year, people were willing to take a
break and wait it out, said J.J.
Kinahan, chief strategist with TD
Ameritrade.
Investors quickly had to shift to
defense mode. Throughout the first
three months of the year, there were
signs that the U.S. economy was neg-
atively impacted by severe winter
storms in December, January and
February, which slowed down job cre-
ation, consumer spending and manu-
facturing nationwide.
Internationally, the tensions
between Russia and the West over
Ukraine drag on. Geopolitical uncer-
tainty is never good for the stock mar-
ket.
Then theres the Federal Reserve.
The nations central bank began to
pull back on its bond-buying econom-
ic stimulus in late December, cutting
its bond purchases from $85 billion to
$75 billion a month. The Fed voted
twice this quarter to further cut back the
program, which now stands at $55 bil-
lion a month.
Theres a large group of traders and
money managers who believe the
Feds bond-buying program helped
push the stock market higher because
it was designed to make bonds more
expensive than stocks. Now that the
Fed is pulling out of the market, the
tailwind in the stock market is fading.
We should expect much more
volatility and more meager returns like
this Wilbanks said.
Stocks close out a meager Q1 gain
SAN FRANCISCO Facebook CEO Mark
Zuckerberg reaped a $3.3 billion gain last
year by exercising stock options in the
social networking company that he founded
in a Harvard University dorm room.
The windfall saddled Zuckerberg with a
huge tax bill, even though he limited his
Facebook salary to just $1, according to reg-
ulatory documents led Monday.
It marks the second straight year that
Zuckerberg has realized a huge gain on the
holding that he has accumulated in Facebook
Inc. since he started the company in 2004. In
2012, Zuckerberg made
$2.3 billion off his stock
options.
Zuckerberg, 29, now
has exhausted his supply
of stock options after
exercising 60 million of
them last year a price of 6
cents per share. He then
sold 41.35 million shares
for $55.05 apiece in
December, primarily to
pay for his tax bill on the gains.
Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan,
also donated 18 million Facebook shares to a
Silicon Valley nonprot. The December gift,
then valued at nearly $1 billion, landed the
couple at the top of The Chronicle of
Philanthropys annual list of the most gener-
ous Americans.
Even after selling and donating so much
Facebook stock, Zuckerberg still owns 426.3
million Facebook shares currently worth
$25.7 billion. The stock has more than dou-
bled in value during the past year as
Zuckerberg fullled his promise to sell more
ads on the smartphones and tablet computers
that bring in most of the trafc to Facebooks
social networking service.
The Menlo Park company now gets more
than half of its ad revenue from mobile
devices, up from 23 percent at the beginning
of last year.
Like many company founders who have
gotten wealthy off their early stakes,
Zuckerberg asked Facebook to limit his annu-
al salary to $1 annually. Besides that token
sum, Zuckerberg also received perquisites
valued at $653,164. All but $3,000 of that
amount went toward Zuckerbergs bills for
personal travel on chartered jets.
Excluding stock option gains,
Zuckerbergs total compensation last year
plunged 67 percent from nearly $2 million in
2012.

BlackBerry wins ruling
against iPhone keyboard
SAN FRANCISCO Troubled smart-
phone maker BlackBerry has won an early
round in its legal battle against an iPhone
keyboard made by a startup co-founded by
American Idol host Ryan Seacrest.
A court order bans Seacrests company,
Typo Products LLC, from selling its iPhone
keyboard in the U.S. while BlackBerry Ltd.
proceeds with a patent infringement case
against the product. BlackBerry contends
Typo Products ripped off the design from the
physical keyboards used for typing on
BlackBerrys phones.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick in San
Francisco ruled that BlackBerry is likely to
prove its infringement claims against Typo
Products and would be damaged if the sales
of the $99 iPhone keyboard were allowed to
continue.
Jury selection begins
in Apple-Samsung case
SAN JOSE The worlds two leading
smartphone makers were back in federal
court on Monday, accusing each other of
stealing ideas and features.
The trial in Silicon Valley, which got
underway with jury selection, marks the lat-
est round in a long-running series of law-
suits between Apple Inc. and Samsung.
If Apple prevails in the current case, the
cost to Samsung could reach $2 billion.
Apples costs, if it loses the litigation, were
expected to be about $6 million.

DETROIT The head of the nations auto
safety watchdog is blaming General Motors
for a failure to act sooner to warn consumers
of a defect in small cars that is linked to 13
deaths.
For its part, GM continues its efforts to
show regulators and consumers that its
more focused on safety, announcing the
recall of another 1.5 million vehicles on
Monday.
In written testimony released ahead of a
Tuesday House subcommittee hearing, act-
ing National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration chief David Friedman says
GM had information connecting defective
ignition switches to the non-deployment of
air bags, but didnt share it until last month.
GM CEO Mary Barra will also testify.
Committee members will press Barra and
Friedman to explain why neither the compa-
ny nor the safety agency moved to recall
millions of small cars with a defective igni-
tion switch, even though GM knew of the
problem as early as 2001.
Sitting here today, I cannot tell you why
it took years for a safety defect to be
announced in (the small car) program, but I
can tell you that we will nd out, Barra said
in prepared testimony submitted to the sub-
committee.
GM has recalled 2.6 million cars for the
faulty switch. That recall prompted GM to
name a new safety chief and review its recall
processes.
With Mondays recall, GM has now
recalled 6.3 million vehicles since
February. GM estimates the actions will
cost it $750 million.
The House hearing and a separate one
Wednesday before a Senate subcommittee
will likely be tense and emotional. At least
a dozen family members of victims will
attend, wearing blue shirts featuring a photo
of 16-year-old Amber Marie Rose, who was
killed in a 2005 Cobalt crash, and the words
Protect Our Children.
Barra will apologize for the loss of life,
but may try to limit her answers to
Congress, citing an ongoing internal
review and government investigations.
GM, safety agency face Congress over recalls
SANTA ROSA A proposed federal rule
that would make it harder for beer breweries
to sell leftover grains as animal feed has
brewers blood boiling.
Beer makers complain that the new rules,
if adopted, would force them to dump mil-
lions of tons of spent grains, which are
left over after barley, wheat and other
grains are steeped in hot water.
The Food and Drug Administration rule
change would mean brewers would have to
meet the same standards as livestock and
pet-food manufacturers, imposing new san-
itary handling procedures, record keeping
and other food safety processes on brewers.
Bear Republic brewmaster Rich Norgrove
says the rules would be costly and force
brewers to dump the grains, instead of the
more sustainable practice of feeding them
to livestock.
The Northern California brewery sells its
spent grain to local ranches, which use it as
an affordable food source for about 300 head
of cattle.
Now the government wants to get
involved, Cheryl LaFranchi, a Knights
Valley rancher, said. What are they going
to do with it? Put it in a landll?
The FDA says the rules stem from a new,
broad modernization of the food safety sys-
tem.
This proposed regulation would help
prevent foodborne illness in both animals
and people, the agency said in the state-
ment.
The FDA is collecting comment through
Monday, and two of the beer industrys
major trade groups have mobilized against
the idea.
Chris Thorne of the Beer Institute said he
believes once the FDA has all of the infor-
mation, it will see the benets of the cur-
rent system of recycling the old grain.

PITTSBURGH Barry Bonds spent a
portion of Monday morning driving around
Pittsburgh, marveling at the changes hes
seen in the city since baseballs career home
run king bolted for San Francisco more than
two decades ago.
He drove by his old apartment in the west-
ern suburbs and the reconfigured North
Shore, where Three Rivers Stadium has been
replaced by sparkling PNC Park.
The makeover hasnt been limited to the
scenery. After 21 years, it appears the old
wounds surrounding Bonds abrupt departure
have started to heal, too.
Bonds drew a mixture of boos and cheers
while presenting current Pittsburgh center
elder Andrew McCutchen with the 2013 NL
MVP award. Bonds was the previous Pirates
player to win the honor,
earning the second of his
record seven career MVP
trophies in 1992.
Standing next to
McCutchen, Bonds
waved to the packed
house and seemed at ease
in his rst public appear-
ance in conjunction with
the team where he starred
from 1986-92 before leaving for San
Francisco via free agency.
It feels good to be back where it all
started, Bonds said. We had some great
times here.
Bonds then sat in the stands and watched as
the Pirates opened against the Chicago Cubs.
Bonds won the 1990 and 1992 MVP
awards while playing for the Pirates from
1986-92 and led the team to three straight
NL East titles. Each playoff trip, however,
fell short of the World Series, most notably
a Game 7 loss to the Atlanta Braves in the
1992 NL championship series that ended
when Bonds throw from left eld failed to
stop Atlantas Sid Bream from scoring the
series-clinching run.
He left for San Francisco and a then-record
six-year, $43-million deal two months later,
where Bonds eventually broke Hank Aarons
record for career home runs, nishing with
762 before leaving after the 2007 season.
Bonds declined to draw any comparisons
between himself and McCutchen, who easi-
ly won the MVP award last season a year
after nishing third in the voting.
Hes got the formula now, Bonds said.
Once you do it once, I expect you to do it
again.
Bonds was joined by a familiar face as the
Pirates put the nishing touches on a break-
out 2013 when they won 94 games and made
it to the NL division series. Former manag-
er Jim Leyland presented current skipper
Clint Hurdle with his NL Manager of the
Year Award and credited Hurdle for helping
turn the franchise around.
After spending years watching his former
club serve as a laughingstock, Leyland is
condent the Pirates are back.
Theyre the real deal now, Leyland said.
They should be here for a long time.
And while he steered clear of the politics
surrounding Bonds place in baseball histo-
ry, Leyland left no doubt about whether
Bonds should be in the Hall of Fame. Bonds
fell well short of the 75 percent threshold
required for induction during his second year
of eligibility, with many voters saying
they wouldnt put him in because of the
steroids cloud.
In my opinion, Barry Bonds is a Hall of
Fame player, said Leyland, who managed
the Pirates from 1986-96 and is now retired.
Theres no doubt about it.
Mixed reaction for Bonds in return to Pittsburgh

Since Skyline sophomore
Bryan Hidalgo converted to
the bullpen, the right-hander
has been lights out.
Hidalgo the 2012 Peninsula
Athletic League strikeout king at
Mills had never served as a regular
reliever previous to this season. But
on Feb. 22 at San Diego Mesa, a
beleaguered Trojans pitching
staff was digging deep to close
out the nal game of a three-
game sweep in which San Diego
Mesa outscored them 40-17.
So, just a day after Hidalgo failed to make
it out of the third inning as a starter,
Skyline manager Dino Nomicos called upon
the sophomore to give the team one relief
inning. After Hidalgo fired a scoreless
eighth, the struggling starter was immedi-
ately converted to the closers role.
He wants to be the workhorse, Nomicos
said of the longtime starter. But I needed
someone to close the door and I felt he
would be better as a reliever. And his num-
bers show that hes done really well.
He sure has. Through nine games, Hidalgo
has been nearly untouchable in relief, posting
a 1-1 record with three saves and a 0.82 ERA.
Basically his mindset when hes a starter
is that hes got to try and close seven or
eight innings, Nomicos said. Now as a
closer he knows: Give me the ball the
last two innings and Ill close the door. And
thats basically what hes done.
And hes done it against some big-time
opponents. With a 6-7 record in Coast Pacic
Conference play and 10-15 overall, Skyline
has had its ups and downs this season. But
two of the Trojans wins have come against
two of their toughest opponents. On Feb.
25, Skyline upset Cosumnes River at the
time the No. 1 ranked team among California
Community Colleges with Hidalgo ring
two no-hit innings in a 10-9 victory.
Then on Saturday, Hidalgo earned the win
as the Trojans knocked off first-place
Cabrillo in dramatic fashion. Hidalgo
worked 3 1-3 innings of shutout ball as
Skyline rallied for two runs in the ninth to
break a deadlocked score and win it 7-5.
Things fell into [place] for us in those
two games, Hidalgo said. Against
Cosumnes, our hitting really came to life
when we put up [10 runs]. And then the game
against Cabrillo, we just kept battling and
never gave up.
With the win, Skyline has now won three
of its last four. The one loss was a tough one
to swallow, dropping a March 25 matchup
with rival Caada 14-1.
The kids are just trying to play hard and
do the best with what we have and theyre
battling, especially coming off [the loss to
Caada], Nomicos said. You would think
most teams would say: OK, were done.
No, theyre still battling.
Hidalgo has epitomized that battling
mentality. But hes had to since Skyline

Umps call overturned,
first time by expanded replay
An umpires call was overturned Monday
for the first time under Major League
Baseballs expanded replay system, with
Milwaukee Brewers star Ryan Braun ruled
out instead of safe.
Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez challenged
the sixth-inning play at Miller Park in the
season opener won by Milwaukee, 2-0. Braun
was originally called safe at rst base by
umpire Greg Gibson on a leadoff ineld sin-
gle elded by third baseman Chris Johnson.
The umpires gathered near the third base
line during the review, while Braun waited
near rst base. The call was reversed to out
after a review that lasted 58 seconds, and
Braun ran back to the dugout.
Manager Fredi Gonzalez said after the
game that he thought the review lasted much
longer, and that was going to watch a replay
of the replay play to time the decision.
Still, he was pleased overall.
You know what? They got the play right.
Thats the bottom line, Gonzalez said. Its
a process that they (were) looking at two to
three years of working through the kinks.

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay Uruguayan
soccer has lost its leadership with little
more than two months before its national
team is to compete in the World Cup.
The entire executive committee of the
Uruguayan Football Association quit
Monday in a crisis that also involves
President Jose Mujica and the football play-
ers union.
It seems nonsensical to me that the exec-
utive committee resigns two months before
the World Cup, because the big loser here
could be the national team, Edgar Welker,
vice president of the Penarol soccer team,
told The Associated Press.
Uruguays clubs will try to designate a
temporary committee to lead the countrys
soccer until the end of the World Cup,
Welker said, adding that the crisis should
not affect the leadership of the national
teams coach, Oscar Washington Tabarez.
The crisis blew up when Mujica abruptly
withdrew police protection Thursday from
the home stadiums of
Penarol and Nacional,
the most popular teams
in Uruguay, after
Nacional fans injured 40
police officers in
postgame violence the
night before.
We Uruguayans cannot
continue in this irra-
tionality, accepting
human stupidity. We need to react urgently,
the president said.
Uruguays soccer federation and its
clubs decided to play Saturdays games
anyway, but the players pulled out Sunday,
saying they wouldnt be safe without
police in the stadiums.
After all ve leaders of the federations
executive committee quit Monday, the coun-
trys leading newspaper, El Pais, raised the
question of whether the development could
threaten Uruguays participation in the
World Cup, which begins June 13 in Brazil.
Citing unidentied sources, El Pais sug-
gested that FIFA, world soccers governing
body, could be investigating the resigna-
tions and could suspend Uruguay from the
tournament if it determined Mujica put
political pressure on the committee.
FIFA rules are designed to protect soccer
from political intervention. To make govern-
ments back down in conicts over the sport,
FIFA can threaten suspension from interna-
tional football matches and meetings.
The bodys media department said FIFA
had no comment on the situation in
Uruguay.
Welker said the government had nothing
to do with the resignation of Uruguayan
Football Association President Sebastian
Bauza and the other executives.
I dont see a government move behind
this, nothing of the sort, he said.
Francisco Figueredo, executive secretary
of the South American Football
Confederation, told the AP in Asuncion,
Paraguay, that neither his group nor FIFA
was investigating the Uruguayan crisis.
Neither is Uruguays participation in the
World Cup at risk, because the selection
(national team) has nothing to do with
police, nor violent fans, he said.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Notre Dames quest
for perfection will continue at the Final Four.
Jewell Loyd scored 30 points and unbeat-
en Notre Dame advanced to the Final Four
for a fourth straight season with an 88-69
win over Baylor on Monday night.
Natalie Achonwa added 19 points and 15
rebounds for the Irish (36-0), who will face
either Louisville or Maryland in the nation-
al seminals on Sunday night in Nashville.
Notre Dame became the sixth school to
reach the Final Four in four straight sea-
sons, joining UConn, LSU, Stanford,
Louisiana Tech and Tennessee.
The loss ended the brilliant career of
Baylor guard Odyssey Sims, who nished
this season with 1,054 points eight
short of Jackie Stiles NCAA record for a
single season. Sims scored 33 points for
Baylor (32-5), but had little help on
offense.
The win extended Notre
Dames home winning
streak to 28 games.
Baylor was the last team
to beat the Irish in South
Bend doing so on Dec.
5, 2012 but that team
had 6-foot-8 star
Brittney Griner.
The loss ended another
superb season for Baylor. The Bears
advanced to the regional nal for the fourth
time in ve seasons, a year after they
with Griner were eliminated in the
regional seminals by Louisville in one of
the biggest upsets in womens basketball
history.
The Irish took control in the rst half
with senior Kayla McBride on the bench
with early foul trouble. Trailing 21-17 mid-
way through the first half, Loyd and
Achonwa got the Irish going. Achonwa,
who had a double-double in the rst half,
started a 14-0 run with a layup. Loyd then
scored the next eight points, including a
highlight reel three-point play that made it
24-21 and whipped up the sellout home
crowd, which included former Irish star
Skylar Diggins.
By the time Sims hit a pullup in the
lane with 5:32 left the Lady Bears trailed
31-24. The Irish led 44-32 at the half as
Loyd finished with 21 points in the first
20 minutes.
Sims rallied the Lady Bears scoring the
rst nine points of the second half to cut the
decit to 46-41. After a Notre Dame basket
Baylor was called for back-to-back offen-
sive fouls the eighth and ninth called in
the game and coach Kim Mulkey had seen
enough, letting the ofcials know her dis-
pleasure. That earned her a technical foul.
The teams traded baskets over the next
few minutes and Baylor closed to within 65-
60 before Notre Dame took over scoring 16
of the next 20 points, including eight from
the free throw line. The Irish were 30 for 33
from the foul line in the game.
The Irish had a scary moment when
Achonwa went down holding her left knee
after getting fouled with just under ve min-
utes left. After a few moments she got up
with help and pointed to her teammates
telling them to get it done before heading to
the locker room.
They followed their senior leaders advice
coming away with the victory. And
Achonwa joined her team for the celebra-
tion, wearing sweats.
The win was Notre Dames rst against
Baylor, which had won the previous four
meetings including a victory in the 2012
national championship game that complet-
ed a 40-0 season for the Lady Bears.
Now Notre Dame is two wins away from
becoming the eighth team to go through the
season unbeaten.

LOS ANGELES Two words surfboards
and Hobie were all but synonymous in the
early 1960s, when teenagers who saw
movies such as Gidget and Beach Party
rushed to the shores of Southern California
to try a mesmerizing new water sport.
The lightweight, maneuverable boards built
by a surfer dude known as Hobie carried people
into the pastime that for decades had remained
all but invisible outside California and Hawaii.
Hobart Laidlaw Alter (its unlikely
many users of his gear knew his last name
or even if he had one) toiled in a small
beachfront shop in Dana Point, cranking
out those boards by the thousands.
Hobie surfboards eventually became the
linchpin of a multimillion-dollar, world-
wide empire that, by the time its unassum-
ing namesake died last week, had grown to
include catamarans, skateboards, beach
wear and more.
Hobie died Saturday at his Palm Desert home
after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was 80.
The man who revolutionized surng with
a cheap, lightweight, easily maneuverable
board might have stayed out of the lime-
light for most of his life, but the boards and
catamarans he created did not.
The basic surfboard structure for 90 per-
cent of the surfboards around the world
remains the foam core that he developed, and
that was 50 years ago, Steve Pezman, pub-
lisher of Surfers Journal and a longtime
friend of Hobie, said Monday.
When Hobie built his rst surfboard, about
the time he graduated from high school in
1950, the old-fashioned, heavy wooden ones
that had limited the sport to the strongest and
most determined athletes were beginning to
give way to lighter balsa wood boards. But
balsa wood was hard to come by.
Afew years after Hobie moved his board-
building operation out of his parents
Laguna Beach garage in 1954, he and his
friend Gordon Grubby Clark decided they
could build a better board using a
polyurethane foam core.
It took a year of trial and error, but they
prevailed: The result was a board that was
easy to shape, so light a child could carry it
to the ocean, and so maneuverable a good
surfer could do all sorts of stunts on it.
Soon Hobie was working with a small staff,
producing 250 boards a week and struggling to
keep up with demand.
Gidget, the lm based on author Frederick
Kohners surng-obsessed teenage daughter
and her goofy friends, had arrived in theaters
in 1959, sending millions on a quest to ride
the wild surf preferably on a reasonably
priced surfboard.
Soon the Hobie board, which retailed
for a little more than $100, and its dis-
tinctive logo were ubiquitous. The latter
could be found painted on surfers cars,
sketched into wet beach sands, even
carved into schoolroom desks.

LINCOLN, Neb. Music City is the next
stop for a Connecticut womens team that
just keeps humming along in search of a
record ninth national championship.
Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis continued her
splendid run through the NCAA tournament
with 17 points, and UConn advanced to the
womens Final Four for the seventh straight
year with a 69-54 victory against Texas
A&M on Monday night.
The defending national champion
Huskies (38-0) won their 44th straight
game. Their semifinal opponent Sunday
in Nashville will be either Stanford or
North Carolina.
Stefanie Dolson, who
made her 150th career
start to tie the NCAA
record, had 14 points and
10 rebounds and blocked
a career-high eight shots.
Bria Hartley had 14
points, Breanna Stewart
added 13 and Moriah
Jefferson 11.
Courtney Walker led
Texas A&M (27-9) with
14 points. Courtney
Williams had 13 and Jordan Jones 12.
Mosqueda-Lewis, an All-American last
year who missed a total of 12 games this
season because of injury or illness, turned in
another great performance and was named
the regionals most outstanding player.

attached to Ferrari and his game.
The negatives were he was selsh. He took too many
shots and handled the ball too much, Harames said. I did-
nt see that. Hes as hard a worker as youll nd. His attitude
was great. I dont think I was disappointed in him at all. I
expected a lot and most of it came true.
In fact, those criticisms couldnt be further from the truth.
Ferrari sees himself as a true point guard: one who handles the
ball, initiates the offense and gets the rest of the team involved.
Until its time for him to take over which he did at sev-
eral points during the season. He took over in the Panthers
76-72 overtime win over Aragon during the regular season,
scoring 30 points, including 11 in the overtime period. And
then, of course, there is the now famous 46-point explosion
in an 83-69 win over Leigh in the Open Division playoffs.
But there were other times Ferraris shots werent falling
and instead of just continuing to force up shots, he looked
to involve his teammates.
Its all about a feel. I just tried to play the game as it
comes to me and go from there, Ferrari said. It happened
multiple times this year. I felt my team needed me to step up.
I kind of have a little feel for the momentum of the game.
Its that feel for the game that helped Ferrari land a schol-
arship to play at University of San Francisco beginning
next season. But even with a scholarship secured, Ferrari
never felt the need to go out and prove he deserved one.
Alot of guys come out and try to prove, Im this guy and
Im going here (for college), Ferrari said. Alot of people
have a cool mode, Im too cool to do this, or Im too cool
to do that. I just wanted to get better. That was my main
concern. I felt I needed to take a step forward to get ready for
college. As the year went on, I got better.
So did the rest of his teammates. No-look passes from the
point to baseline that were fumbled out of bounds early in
the season because teammates werent expecting it turned
into baseline layups by the end of the season. The highest
accolade you can give a point guard or any player for that
matter is he made those around him better. Harames
believes Ferrari did just that.
He made [his teammates] all way better players, I
thought, Harames said. The hard work helped. He worked
hard at practice and [both the practices and his teammates]
were highly elevated by him.
And despite all the accolades and 20-point games and
amazing plays Ferrari has garnered and made this season, it
was the things the team accomplished along with just
playing with his friends that Ferrari will remember the
most from his senior year.
Beating Serra (in their annual non-league game) was
nice. Going undefeated in league (was nice), Ferrari said.
But (just being) day in, day out with the guys. The rela-
tionship on the team was unreal. Being with them every day
and grinding with them (is something Ill remember).
Said Harames: Hes a special player.
sophomore left-hander Daniel
Madigan (Carlmont) was lost for the
season with an elbow injury. Madigan
is set to undergo Tommy John surgery
next week, effectively ending his
Skyline career, according to Nomicos.
His baseball career is not over,
Nomicos said. But for him to stay
another year, and rehab here, and play
here is not worth it for him. His best
situation is to go to a school next year
as a part-time student and compete and
rehabilitate. And then come back and
pitch for two more years at the four-
year level.
As a result of the injury, Skyline has
had to reinvent its pitching staff in a
hurry. The Trojans have leaned heavily
on freshmen Thomas Caulfield
(Burlingame), sophomore Sean
Collins (Carlmont) and transfer soph-
omore Cage Cascone (Terra Nova) all
season long. But the emerging arm in
the mix has been freshman right-han-
der Aldo Severson (Aragon) who has
pitched in nine of Skylines last 10
games.
Further depleting its roster, Skyline
has lost three everyday players with
injuries to sophomore shortstop
Ismael Orozco (Riordan), third base-
man Armando Fajardo (Hillsdale) and
Nic Bongi (Carlmont).
Were depending on everybody and
doing different things, Nomicos said.
Were just trying to put it together.
It has been Hidalgo who has posi-
tioned himself as the clutch arm on the
staff though. And thats just the way he
likes it.
I like having the ball in my hand in
the big situations just trying to close
out games for us and just trying to get
wins, Hidalgo said.
Skyline is currently in fourth place
in the Coast Pacic, 3 1/2 games back
of first-place Caada and Cabrillo
(tied) and 2 1/2 games behind second-
place Ohlone.

WASHINGTON Beating expectations,
President Barack Obamas health care over-
haul was on track to sign up more than 7
million Americans for health insurance on
deadline day Monday, government ofcials
told The Associated Press.
The 7 million target, thought to be out of
reach by most experts, was in sight on a day
that saw surging consumer interest as well
as vexing computer glitches that slowed
sign-ups on the HealthCare.gov website.
Two government ofcials conrmed the
milestone, speaking on condition of
anonymity because they were not author-
ized to discuss the matter ahead of an ofcial
announcement.
Seven million was the original target set
by the Congressional Budget Office for
enrollment in taxpayer-subsidized private
health insurance through new online mar-
kets created under Obamas signature legis-
lation.
That was scaled back to 6 million after the
disastrous launch of HealthCare.gov last
fall. Several state-run websites also had
crippling problems.
Americans who rushed to apply for health
insurance Monday faced long, frustrating
waits and a new spate of website ills on
deadline day.
This is like trying to nd a parking spot
at Wal-Mart on Dec. 23, said Jason
Stevenson, working with a Utah nonprot
group helping people enroll.
At times, more than 125,000 people were
simultaneously using HealthCare.gov,
straining it beyond its capacity. For long
stretches Monday, applicants were shuttled
to a virtual waiting room where they could
leave an email address and be contacted
later.
Ofcials said the site had not crashed but
was experiencing very heavy volume. The
website, which was receiving 1.5 million
visitors a day last week, had recorded about
2 million through 3 p.m. EDT. Call centers
have more than 840,000 calls.
Supporters of the health care law fanned
out across the country in a nal dash to sign
up uninsured Americans. People not signed
up for health insurance by the deadline,
either through their jobs or on their own,
were subject to being ned by the IRS, and
that threat was helping drive the nal dash.
The administration announced last week
that people still in line by midnight would
get extra time to enroll.
The website stumbled early in the day
out of service for nearly four hours as tech-
nicians patched a software bug. Another
hiccup in early afternoon temporarily kept
new applicants from signing up, and then
things slowed further. Overwhelmed by
computer problems when launched last fall,
the system has been working much better in
recent months, but independent testers say
it still runs slowly.
At Chicagos Norwegian American
Hospital, people began lining up shortly
after 7 a.m. to get help signing up for sub-
sidized private health insurance.

mother of two boys, said shed previously

WASHINGTON Congress is poised to
give doctors who treat Medicare patients an
eleventh-hour reprieve from a cut in their
government fees.
Mondays planned Senate vote would send
legislation to repair Medicares awed pay-
ment formula for a year to President Barack
Obama for his signature. It comes just hours
before a midnight deadline.
The $21 billion measure would stave off a
24 percent cut in Medicare reimbursements
to doctors for a year and extend dozens of
other expiring health care provisions such
as higher payment rates for rural hospitals.
The legislation is paid for by cuts to health
care providers, but fully half of the cuts
wont kick in for 10 years.
Its the seventeenth temporary patch to
a broken payment formula that dates to
1997 and comes after lawmakers failed to
reach a deal on nancing a permanent x.
The measure passed the House on
Thursday, but only after top leaders in both
parties engineered a voice vote when it
became clear they were having difculty
mustering the two-thirds vote required to
advance it under expedited procedures.
Several top Democrats opposed the bill,
saying it would take momentum away from
the drive to permanently solve the payment
formula problem.
Theres widespread agreement on biparti-
san legislation to redesign the payment for-
mula that would doctors 0.5 percent annual
fee increases and implement reforms aimed
at giving doctors incentives to provide less
costly care. But theres no agreement on
how to pay the approximately $140 billion
cost of scrapping the old formula.
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron
Wyden, D-Ore., promised to keep pressing
ahead with a long-term solution, proposing
to use savings from the troop drawdown in
Afghanistan to pay the cost. Republicans
and most budget experts say such savings
are phony and are demanding at least some
of the money to come from cuts to Obamas
Affordable Care Act.
Paying for this through (war savings) is
the mother of all gimmicks, said Sen. Jeff
Sessions, R-Ala.
We just dont have the votes right now to
x this problem for good, said Majority
Congress to pass bill to stop cut to Medicare doctors

leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who negotiated
the measure with House Speaker John
Boehner, R-Ohio. For the millions of eld-
erly Americans and their doctors this x is
good news. It means the promise of accessi-
ble, quality health care to our nations sen-
iors is being honored for another year.
The heavily lobbied measure blends $16
billion to address Medicare physicians
payments with about $5 billion more for a
variety of other expiring health care provi-
sions, like higher Medicare payments to
rural hospitals and for ambulance rides in
rural areas. Manufacturers of certain drugs to
treat kidney disease catch a break, as do
dialysis providers and the state of
California, which receives increases in
Medicare physician fees in 14 counties such
as San Diego and Sacramento that are desig-
nated as rural and whose doctors therefore
receive lower payments than their urban
counterparts.
The bill increases spending by $17 bil-
lion over the next three years, offsetting
the cost with cuts to health care providers.
The authors of the bill employed consider-
able gimmickry to amass the cuts, however,
and fully half of them dont appear for 10
years. For instance, the bill claims $5 bil-
lion in savings through a timing shift in
Medicare cuts in 2024.
Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., cited the gim-
micks as he lit into the legislation in a lac-
erating oor speech. He said the so-called
offsets were phony and that the measure
delays a long-sought overhaul of Medicares
fee-for-service system, which pays doctors
according to the number of tests and treat-
ments they perform.
We are going to put off until tomor-
row what we should be doing today,
Coburn said. Its a sham. ... Its not h-
ing but gimmicks.
Other savings come from curbs on pay-
ments to hospitals that care for a large share
of indigent patients. But those hospitals
rst get a one-year reprieve from cuts sched-
uled in 2016.
The measure would give Medicare doctors
a 0.5 percent fee increase through the end of
the year. It also creates two new mental
health grant programs, including $1.1 bil-
lion over four years for improvements to
community health centers and $60 million
over four years for outpatient treatment for
people with serious mental illness.
The measure solves the fee schedule prob-
lem through next March.

tried to enroll at a clinic in another part of

Shed wait and wait and they wouldnt call

work that she was told earlier she didnt
need, she said. Her diabetic mother would

Shes heard that this would be better
here, said Martinez, adding that her mother
successfully signed up Sunday at a different
location.
At St. Francis Hospital in Wilmington,
Del., enrollment counselor Hubert Worthen
plunged into a long day. I got my energy
drink, he said. This is epic, man.
At a Houston community center, there
were immigrants from Ethiopia, Nepal,
Eritrea, Somalia, Iraq, Iran and other con-
ict-torn areas, many of them trying anew
after failing to complete applications previ-
ously. In addition to needing help with the
actual enrollment, they needed to wait for
interpreters. Many had taken a day off from
work, hoping to meet the deadline.
The White House and other supporters of
the law were hoping for an enrollment surge
that would confound skeptics.
The insurance markets or exchanges
offer subsidized private health insurance to
people who dont have access to coverage
through their jobs. The federal government
is taking the lead in 36 states, while 14
other states plus Washington, D.C., are run-
ning their own enrollment websites.
New York, running its own site, reported
more than 812,000 had signed up by Sunday
morning, nearly 100,000 of them last week.
However, its unclear what those numbers
may mean.
The administration hasnt said how many
of the 6 million people nationally who had
signed up before the weekend ultimately
closed the deal by paying their rst months
premiums. Also unknown is how many were
previously uninsured the real test of
Obamas health care overhaul. In addition,
the law expands coverage for low-income
people through Medicaid, but only about
half the states have agreed to implement that
option.
Cheering on the deadline-day sign-up
effort, Health and Human Services Secretary
Kathleen Sebelius planned to spend much of
the day Monday working out of the depart-
ments TV studio, conducting interviews by
satellite with stations around the country.
Though March 31 was the last day ofcial-
ly to sign up, millions of people are poten-
tially eligible for extensions granted by the
administration.
Those include people who had begun
enrolling by the deadline but didnt nish,
perhaps because of errors, missing informa-
tion or website glitches. The government
says it will accept paper applications until
April 7 and take as much time as necessary to
handle unnished cases on HealthCare.gov.
Rules may vary in states running their own
insurance marketplaces.
The administration is also offering special
extensions to make up for all sorts of prob-
lems that might have kept people from get-
ting enrolled on time: Natural disasters.
Domestic abuse. Website malfunctions.
Errors by insurance companies. Mistakes by
application counselors.
To seek a special enrollment period, con-
tact the federal call center, at 1-800-318-
2596, or the state marketplace and explain
what happened. Its on the honor system. If
the extension is approved, that brings
another 60 days to enroll.

By Marilynn Marchione
Love can sometimes break a heart but mar-
riage seems to do it a lot of good. Astudy of
more than 3.5 million Americans nds that
married people are less likely than singles,
divorced or widowed folks to suffer any type
of heart or blood vessel problem.
This was true at any age, for women as
well as for men, and regardless of other heart
disease risk factors they had such as high
cholesterol or diabetes, researchers found.
It might be that if someone is married,
they have a spouse who encourages them to
take better care of themselves, said Dr.
Jeffrey Berger, a preventive cardiologist at
NYU Langone Medical Center in New York.
But we cant prove by any means cause
and effect, he said.
This is the largest look at marriage and
heart health, said Dr. Carlos Alviar, a cardi-
ology fellow who led the study with Berger.
Previous studies mostly compared married
to single people and lacked information on
divorced and widowed ones. Or they just
looked at heart attacks, whereas this one
included a full range from clogged arteries
and abdominal aneurysms to stroke risks
and circulation problems in the legs.
Researchers used health questionnaires
that people lled out when they sought var-
ious types of tests in community settings
around the country from an Ohio company,
Life Line Screening Inc. Some of these
screening tests, for various types of cancer
and other diseases or conditions, are not rec-
ommended by leading medical groups, but
people can still get them and pay for them
themselves.
The study authors have no nancial ties to
the company and are not endorsing this type
of screening, Berger said. Life Line gave its
data to the Society of Vascular Surgery and
New York University to help promote
research.
The results are from people who sought
screening from 2003 through 2008. Their
average age was 64, nearly two-thirds were
female and 80 percent were white. They gave
information on smoking, diabetes, family
history, obesity, exercise and other factors,
and researchers had blood pressure and other
health measures.
The study found:
Married people had a 5 percent lower risk
of any cardiovascular disease compared to
single people. Widowed people had a 3 per-
cent greater risk of it and divorced people, a
5 percent greater risk, compared to married
folks.
Marriage seemed to do the most good for
those under age 50; they had a 12 percent
lower risk of heart-related disease than sin-
gle people their age.
Smoking, a major heart risk, was highest
among divorced people and lowest in wid-
owed ones. Obesity was most common in
those single and divorced. Widowed people
had the highest rates of high blood pressure,
diabetes and inadequate exercise.
Researchers dont know how long any
study participants were married or how
recently they were divorced or became wid-
owed. But the results drive home the mes-
sage that a persons heart risks cant be
judged by physical measures alone social
factors and stress also matter, said Dr. Vera
Bittner, a cardiologist at the University of
Alabama at Birmingham.
She heads the heart disease prevention
committee of the American College of
Cardiology. The study results were released
on Friday ahead of presentation this week-
end at the groups annual meeting in
Washington.
Study: Married folks have
fewer heart problems
A study of more than 3.5 million Americans nds that married people are less likely than
singles, divorced or widowed folks to suffer any type of heart or blood vessel problem.
By Marilynn Marchione
WASHINGTON New research is boost-
ing hopes that weight-loss surgery can put
some patients diabetes into remission for
years and perhaps in some cases, for good.
Doctors on Monday gave longer results
from a landmark study showing that stom-
ach-reducing operations are better than med-
ications for treating diabesity, the deadly
duo of obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Millions
of Americans have this and cant make
enough insulin or use what they do make to
process food.
Many experts were skeptical that the ben-
ets seen after a year would last.
Now, three-year results show an even
greater advantage for surgery.
Blood-sugar levels were normal in 38 per-
cent and 25 percent of two groups given sur-
gery, but in only 5 percent of those treated
with medications.
The results are quite remarkable and
could revolutionize care, said one independ-
ent expert, Dr. Robert Siegel, a cardiologist
at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los
Angeles.
No one dreamed, at least I didnt, that
obesity surgery could have such broad
effects long before it caused patients to lose
weight, he said. Some patients were able to
stop using insulin a few days after surgery.
At three years, more than 90 percent of
the surgical patients required no insulin,
and nearly half had needed it at the start of
the study, said its leader, Dr. Philip Schauer
of the Cleveland Clinic. In contrast, insulin
use rose in the medication group, from 52
percent at the start to 55 percent at three
years.
The results were reported Monday at an
American College of Cardiology conference
in Washington. They also were published
online by the New England Journal of
Medicine.
Doctors are reluctant to call surgery a pos-
sible cure because they cant guarantee dia-
betes wont come back.
Surgery gives long-term
help for obese diabetics
By Lauran Neergaard
WASHINGTON Edwin Pacheco was in
and out of the hospital for months. Hed sur-
vived one organ transplant and desperately
needed another. But he wasnt the only one
suffering. Few people asked how his wife
was holding up as she kept vigil, cornered
hard-to-understand doctors and held job and
family together.
Everybody was like, Oh, youre a good
caregiver. But inside, Im dying, Minerva
Pacheco of New York recalls of those tumul-
tuous days.
Then one day in the intensive care waiting
room at Monteore Medical Center, a pair of
strangers introduced themselves as volun-
teer coaches for caregivers and offered a
shoulder. Its part of an unusual program that
recruits retirees and specially trains them to
help overwhelmed family members cope
with a scary hospital stay for their own
health, and so they can better care for their
loved one.
The caregiver needs to be taken care of,
too, said Monteore coach Dave Wolffe, a
retired high school guidance counselor who
spotted Pachecos distress. If theyre sick,
or they break down, feel helpless or hope-
less, theyre not going to be too helpful to
the patient.
The coaches offer more than emotional
support and a sympathetic ear. Theyre
trained to help people navigate a complex
hospital system and to help them locate
community resources that may ease the
strain, too.
They can track down a doctor to answer a
caregivers questions.

ing and a former bank building in
downtown San Mateo in 2011 to open
a boarding school for young entrepre-
neurs.
In April and August of last year, the
city issued temporary occupancy per-
mits to allow the school to host its
grand opening prior to nishing land-
scape enhancements. The permits
expired months ago and the university
has done little to follow through with
its terms of approval, Matthews said.
Regardless, the university requested
an encroachment permit to allow the
school to install ber optic cables
across Third Avenue between the
Draper University buildings to allot
for its data and voice networking
needs, according to a city staff report.
The council voted March 17 to
approve an encroachment license and
potentially waive the $6,000 annual
fee if the school resolves its landscap-
ing and retail requirements.
Members of the public spoke at the
meeting in frustration about the
schools outstanding obligations and
claimed the city was overlooking its
original vision for downtown.
The council always talks about the
citys need for tax revenue, however,
its allowed the university to misuse
what should be ground floor retail
space, said Maxine Terner, a former
planning commissioner who was
actively involved in the citys
Downtown Plan revisions.
He could not even fulll his condi-
tions for approval for the few things
that would have improved the area for
citizens; the ordinary citizens, Terner
said. Its just hard to know that were
still bending over backwards; espe-
cially to know that Draper is on to
something else. This is what venture
capitalists do; they throw money at
lots of ideas and they hope that some-
thing sticks. Thats not what you do in
the heart of your community and thats
where we are.
Yet the concept is sticking and the
school has graduated 250 students
from about 30 different countries, Tim
Draper wrote in an email. It has also
started 40 new companies and is home
to Boost, a leading Bitcoin accelerator
through which about 60 companies
have been processed, Draper wrote in
an email to the Daily Journal.
Hes surprised that residents are com-
plaining about small ticket items like
landscaping when the university is
proving to be a benet to the city.
I am sure the elected ofcials can
understand the signicance of what we
are doing for their city, so I dont
understand why we are being held up on
mission critical items like getting
ber line placed between the buildings
because some citizen complained that
she didnt like the plants we put in the
alley which were incidentally dic-
tated by the historic society, Draper
wrote.
Some of the universitys proposed
ideas, such as its promise to construct
a living wall, have fallen short for one
reason or another, Patterson said.
In the case of landscaping, the his-
toric society recommended against
mounting the elaborate and expensive
plant wall against a historic building,
Patterson said.
Landscaping is the most signicant
outstanding property enhancement
and hopefully solutions will be gener-
ated during Tuesdays meeting,
Patterson said.
The university wants to continue to
collaborate with the city and prove its
value to San Mateo, Draper wrote.
The people of the city have been
very welcoming and we hope that we
have a very positive long-term benet
to their businesses, Draper wrote. I
will be relieved when the city nally
gives us the certicates of occupancy
we richly deserve so we can actually
get more permanent tenants.
Its a unique project and the city is
happy to have the university call San
Mateo home, but its time for Draper to
wrap up its loose ends, Matthews said.
We tried to cooperate, we tried to be
exible and we understand that what
theyre trying to do is a little different,
a little new, Matthews said. Maybe
that will take more time to get going,
but we need a commitment from them
on when theyre going to nish the
project and get a nal certicate of
occupancy. I think theyre anxious to
do that and we have to decide on how
theyre going to get there.

DRAPER
arrest.
Sen. Leland Yees attorney Paul
DeMeester asked why it took until
Wednesday for the FBI to le charges
when it appeared the investigation of
his client began in 2011.
It raises fairness questions,
DeMeester said after he and Yee made a
brief federal court appearance in San
Francisco. Is it fair to the public, is it
fair to the senator that it took so
long?
DeMeester in particular challenged
why the FBI appeared to shift the focus
of its probe from a cash-for-inuence
case to an investigation of alleged
connections to international arms
dealers.
Theres a question of whether the
government felt it didnt have enough
evidence on the campaign investiga-
tion, so it starts pushing on the arms
trafcking, DeMeester said.
The U.S. attorneys ofce in San
Francisco didnt immediately respond
to a phone call and email message
seeking reaction to DeMeesters
claims.
Yee hasnt entered a plea yet to one
count of conspiracy to traffic in
rearms without a license and to ille-
gally import firearms, and to six
counts of engaging in a scheme to
defraud citizens of honest services.
He is accused of accepting bribes
from undercover operatives needing
political help in Sacramento and of
agreeing to connect an undercover FBI
agent posing as an underworld gure
with an international arms dealer.
DeMeester previously said the senator
plans to plead not guilty.
Yee appeared briey in court to dis-
cuss details of his release before trial.
His next court date is April 8. He has
been suspended from the Legislature.
Wearing a brown pinstriped suit, Yee
shot a brief smile at reporters assem-
bled in the gallery before approaching
the bench with DeMeester.
Yee is currently free on a $500,000
unsecured bond. Prosecutors want
property the senator owns to be used as
collateral to guarantee he appears at all
court hearings.
Federal prosecutors said they were
close to accepting some property the
senator owns but were still in negotia-
tions with Yee and his lawyers.
Moments before Yees appearance,
Raymond Shrimp Boy Chow, who
authorities say is a Chinatown crime
syndicate boss, was brought into court
wearing ankle restraints and dressed in
a mustard-yellow jail jumpsuit.
Chow was also arrested last week as
part of the elaborate FBI sting opera-
tion targeting organized crime in the
Chinatown area of San Francisco. A
total of 26 people have been charged
in the case.
Federal public defender Elizabeth
Falk told the judge her ofce had a con-
ict from previous cases and she was
still searching for a lawyer to repre-
sent Chow at government cost.
Chow was ordered to return to court
on Wednesday. He was denied bail last
week after a judge deemed him a ight
risk.
Chow is accused of money launder-
ing and other activities as the head of a
notorious Chinatown-based gang. He
has not entered a plea.
