Guidance for students during trying times


Counselors offer broader perspective to stressed students during college acceptance
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

While some students stress about which


path they may take after high school, guidance counselors are busy reminding them
that myriad paths to success remain even if
they will not be attending their college or
university of choice.
As the calendar turns to April, students

who have been accepted into the University


of California and California State
University systems will have one month to
announce their intent to enroll.
But should a student not get accepted to
their school of choice, or be stressing over
which to attend, local school counselors are
attempting to provide a healthier perspective on life after high school.
We are not going to fall all over our-

selves endorsing the frenzy that your life is


over if you didnt get into UCLA, said
Alice Kleeman, college advisor at MenloAtherton High School.
Kleeman said it is important to start
coaching students early that the university
they attend will not ultimately define them.
If I felt there were only 20, 30 or 40 colleges worth going to, I wouldnt be doing
this job. It would be ridiculous, she said.

You are going to get hear yeses and nos,


but that is just life.
She said high school should not solely
been seen as a period of time when students
mold their college resume, but also as an
opportunity to shape their interests and
personality, which should guide the decision regarding where they elect to attend.

Seven San Francisco officers


suspended over racist texts
By Kristen J. Bender

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Seven San Francisco


police officers accused of sending racist and
homophobic text messages have been suspended, and the police chief has recommended that they be fired.
Chief Greg Suhr announced Friday that he
has asked a police oversight committee to
approve firing the officers. Six others face
disciplinary actions that include reassignment to positions that dont have contact
with the public. Another officer tied to the
investigation already has resigned.
The text messages are of such despicable
thinking that those responsible clearly fall
below the minimum standards required to be
a police officer, Suhr said in a statement.

But the officers, who were not identified,


violated department policy to varying
degrees, Suhr said.
Two officers who sent inflammatory texts
were reassigned and will have their cases
considered by the police commission,
which can hand down penalties up to termination.
The remaining four officers did not send
text messages that included hate speech,
said Suhr, who will decide how to punish
them. He can suspend an officer without pay
for up to 10 days.
Authorities say the texts targeting

blacks, Mexicans, Filipinos and gay men


were sent between 2011 and 2012. They
were discovered by federal authorities investigating a former police sergeant, who was
convicted of corruption and sentenced to
more than three years in prison.
Meanwhile, District Attorney George
Gascon said his office will review all cases
going back 10 years that were linked to the
officers either by writing a report, submitting evidence or testifying in court.
City leaders have raised concern that any
prejudice by the officers could have led to
unfair treatment, particularly in cases
involving black defendants.
The San Francisco Police Officers
Association earlier issued a statement saying the actions were not emblematic of individuals it represents.

Coroner IDs man who died in motorcycle crash


BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The San Mateo County coroner has identified the man who died in a possible hit-andrun motorcycle crash Thursday evening in

Utah 49th state for Obama,


South Dakota still remains
By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah


Utah, check. One more state to go for
President Barack Obama: South
Dakota.
Utah was the 49th state visited by
Obama and the latest stop on his recent
tour of Republican red states.
Since Republicans took control of
both houses of Congress in January,
Obama has traveled to 10 GOP states:
Arizona, Tennessee, Idaho, Kansas,
Indiana, South Carolina, Alabama,
Georgia, Kentucky and Utah, all of
which voted for Obama rival Mitt
Romney in 2012. Obama also has visited nine states that voted for his reelection.
The White House says there is no
concerted effort to put the president in
Republican states. There are really

important, substantive reasons that


explain the places we go, White
House spokesman Eric Schultz said.
After spending the night in Salt Lake
City, Obama appeared on Friday at Hill
Air Force Base near Ogden to announce
new steps to support military veterans
by training them for solar industry
jobs. A lot of our men and women in
uniform at some point are going to
transition into civilian life and we
want to make sure that after theyve
fought for our freedom that theyve got
jobs to come home to, the president
said,
The departments of Energy and
Defense are starting a program at 10
military bases nationwide, including
at Hill Air Force Base, to teach service
members who are transitioning out of
the military how to install solar panels.
The Energy Department has committed to training 75,000 people, includ-

ing veterans, for solar industry jobs


by 2020.
In terms of travel, Obama had visited
46 states by the start of the year. The
White House quickly scheduled presidential appearances in Idaho and South
Carolina two of the four remaining
states followed by Utah.
South Dakota now has the distinction of being the only state awaiting a
presidential visit by Obama. With 21
months left on his term, he has plenty
of time to get there.
When he gets to South Dakota,
Obama will become the fourth president to hit all 50 states, according to
the
White
House
Historical
Association.
Richard Nixon was first, followed by
George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton.
Ronald Reagan came four states
short of the goal.
George W. Bush never made it to
Vermont.

DENVER Drought-weary Californians cant expect


much encouragement from mountains elsewhere in the West:
Snow that fills the Colorado River is lagging, too, officials
said Friday.
The snowpack in the Colorado and Wyoming valleys
where the river originates now ranges from 51 to 79 percent
of normal, said Brian Domonkos, Colorado supervisor of
the U.S. Department of Agriculture snow survey, which monitors snowfall and water availability.
The Colorado River supplies water to about 40 million
people and 6,300 square miles of farmland in seven states,
including California.
The Rocky Mountain snow that melts into the river doesnt flow directly to California and other downstream users.
Instead, its held in a series of reservoirs that release
enough water to fulfill the legal allotments to southwestern
states under a series of agreements and court rulings.
The reservoirs have sufficient water to provide California
and other downstream states with their full shares this year
and for the foreseeable future, said Matthew Allen, a
spokesman for the federal Bureau of Reclamation, which
manages the reservoir system.

Californians with century-old


water rights face restrictions
SACRAMENTO Farms and other Californians that have
been shielded from water reductions because of century-old
claims could face new restrictions, the State Water Resources
Control Board said Friday.
Its another sign of the rising severity of Californias
drought, now in its fourth consecutive year. Surveyors on
Wednesday found the Sierra Nevada snowpack containing
just 5 percent of its normal water level, which makes its way
into rivers and streams and provides 30 percent of the states
water.
Thousands in California, mostly farmers but also cities
and energy companies, have rights to divert water for their
needs, including irrigation and for hydroelectric dams. But if
dry conditions continue through summer, they will likely
face restrictions on taking water, the board warned in a letter.

Diego man has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for
operating a revenge porn website and charging victims to
remove the images.
Attorney General Kamala Harris said Friday that Kevin
Bollaerts sentence shows there are severe consequences for
exploiting people online.
Bollaert was convicted in February of identity theft and

Brief total lunar eclipse


to grace the sky Saturday
By Alicia Chang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Dont blink. Theres a


total eclipse of the moon Saturday and
its an unusually short one.
If there are clear skies, the 3 1/2-hour
spectacle is visible from start to finish
from the western U.S. and Canada where it
occurs before dawn. Skygazers in the
Midwest and East Coast only get part of the
lunar show.
The eclipse can also be seen in its entireREUTERS ty Saturday night from eastern Australia,

Pope Francis presides over Good


Friday procession at Colosseum
By Frances DEmilio
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROME Pope Francis, presiding at the


traditional Good Friday Colosseum procession, decried what he called the complicit
silence about the killing of Christians.
The evening, torch-lit ceremony at the
ancient arena recalls the suffering and death
of Jesus by crucifixion.
After listening silently, often with head
bowed and eyes tightly shut, to reflections
read aloud about Jesus suffering, Francis
pressed what lately has been an urgent concern of his papacy the present-day martyrdom of Christians in parts of the Middle
East, Africa and elsewhere.
We see, even today, our brothers persecuted, beheaded and crucified, for their faith
in you, in front of our eyes or often with our
complicit silence, he said, as he prayed.
A few hours earlier, Francis had condemned the deadly attack by Islamic militants targeting Christians at a Kenyan university. Earlier this year he denounced the
murder in Libya of 21 Coptic Christians by
Islamic State-affiliated militants, saying
they were slain simply for being Christian.
And he has lamented how Christians in parts

HOW LONG IS THE TOTAL ECLIPSE?


NASA calculates the total eclipse the
moment when Earths shadow completely
blocks the moon at only five minutes.
Using a different model, the U.S. Naval
Observatory put it at about 12 minutes. In
either case, its the shortest lunar eclipse of
the century.
On the west coast of North America, the
total eclipse what astronomers call totality begins shortly before 5 a.m. PDT.

WHY SO BRIEF?

In this case, the moon skims the upper

eclipse lasts longer.
Among those chosen to take turns carrying the lightweight, slender cross in the
procession were faithful from Iraq, Syria,
Nigeria, Egypt and China.
One of the prayers during the procession
called for the fundamental right of religious freedom to spread throughout the
world.
In another reflection, a lector said our
conscience is troubled. We anxiously ask:
When will the death penalty, still practiced
in many states, be abolished? There was
also an appeal for the end of all torture.
Tens of thousands of tourists, pilgrims
and Romans held candles as they joined in
the prayers on a warm night.

WHY A BLOOD MOON


DURING THE ECLIPSE?
Blood moon refers to its orange or red
appearance the result of sunlight scattering off Earths atmosphere.
Whether the moon appears dark red, copper, bronze or another shade depends on
several factors including the amount of volcanic ash in the atmosphere.
Thats what makes lunar eclipses so
interesting, said Geoff Chester of the U.S.
Naval Observatory in Washington.

WHEN IS THE NEXT


TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE?
The next full eclipse of the moon occurs
on Sept. 28 and will be visible across the
U.S. and Canada, as well as western Europe
and Africa. Totality will last a little over an
hour.

IS SPECIAL EQUIPMENT
NEEDED TO WATCH?
Unlike solar eclipses which require eye
protection, you only need clear skies to
view a lunar eclipse. A pair of binoculars or
backyard telescope will enhance your view,
but theyre not necessary.

and brandishing a knife received medical attention.
Its the second time this year San
Mateo County law enforcement faced a
potentially deadly crisis situation
involving someone in psychological
distress and officials are hopeful spreading awareness will continue the trend.
San Mateo County officials are
expanding their efforts to educate first
responders on how to effectively interact with someone in psychological distress through crisis intervention training and developing a new responder
program.
Sheriffs deputies were called to the
Moonridge Apartment Complex in Half
Moon Bay around 11:30 a.m. Saturday
on reports of a teenager in crisis whose
family was concerned she may hurt herself with a knife or jump from a secondstory window. Deputies determined
there was no immediate threat to the
safety of family members or responding
personnel and she was ultimately transported to the hospital, according to the
Sheriffs Office.
Officials were pleased to announce the
situation was resolved peacefully, particularly as it contrasted with the death
of 18-year-old Yanira Serrano-Garcia at
the same apartment complex last June.
Serrano-Garcia was shot and killed by
a sheriffs deputy who responded to the
Moonridge Apartments and encountered
the young woman brandishing a knife.
Serrano-Garcia, who had schizophrenia,
was reportedly killed within 20 seconds
of deputies arriving on scene.
The San Mateo County District
Attorney later determined the deputy
acted in self-defense.
I definitely think theres a significant increased awareness of those situations and a real commitment to trying to
avoid these kinds of things that happened in the earlier Moonridge
Apartment incident, said Stephen
Kaplan, director of the countys
Behavioral Health and Recovery
Services. So Im really pleased that
theres such a strong commitment in the
county and police departments and
Sheriffs Office and others.

and security guards. There is typically a
waitlist for the 40-hour-program and
this year the county is expanding to
three training sessions, said sheriffs
Deputy Jim Coffman.
The county has also committed to creating a new psychiatric emergency
response team comprised of Coffman,
as the law enforcement liaison, and a
licensed clinician, Kaplan said.
The pilot program should begin in the
coming months as the new clinician and

Kaplan said.
Coffman said he first took specialty

Department in 1999 and learned its
value after having worked for Palo Alto
police downtown. We encountered
mentally ill people all the time and at
the time, it gave me a different perspective on their plight in life. They are suffering from an illness just like someone

Timing and circumstances


Coffman said the county typically
sees nearly one 5150 case, or a person
who is placed on a 72-hour psychiatric
hold, per day. But its the incidents
when law enforcement and those in crisis collide that gain attention, Kaplan
said.
Yet even with all the training in the
world, Coffman and sheriffs Deputy
Rebecca Rosenblatt said timing and circumstances ultimately dictate outcomes.
In the case of last weekends
Moonridge Apartment call, Rosenblatt
said none of the responding deputies had
undergone the countys specialty training, but they likely recollected the
Serrano-Garcia confrontation.
I think it was a thought in their
minds. Obviously everybody was aware
of this incident and in responding,
hoped this would not be that again. But
again, you can only do so much and
sometimes the parameters of the situation are what they are, Rosenblatt said.
Deputies took proactive steps to ease
the situation by turning off lights and
sirens when they got closer to the call
so as not to alarm the young woman and
they spoke with her family to explain
what was going on and get a better sense
of how to respond, Rosenblatt said.

IRAN
Continued from page 1

Barack Obama significant ammunition for the fight hell


face selling an agreement to skeptical U.S. lawmakers and
Middle East allies.
That is, if negotiators can get to that point over the next
three months.
As Obama said from the White House, Their work, our
work, is not yet done and success is not guaranteed. And
the parameters for a comprehensive accord by June 30 still
include big holes for Washington and its negotiating partners.
The limits are vague on Irans research and development
of advanced technology that could be used for producing
nuclear weapons. Inspectors still might not be able to enter
Iranian military sites where nuclear work previously took
place. The Americans and Iranians already are bickering
over how fast economic sanctions on Iran would be relaxed.
And Obamas assertion that the penalties could always be
snapped back into force is undermined by the U.S. fact sheet
describing a dispute resolution process enshrined in the
agreement.
But the biggest issue may be one U.S. officials have
emphasized above all others: the breakout time Iran would
need to surreptitiously produce a nuclear weapon. The framework imposes a combination of restrictions that would
leave Iran needing to work for at least a year to accomplish
that goal, rather than the two-to-three months currently.
Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry have cited the
longer breakout period as proof theyve secured a good
deal and say the one-year window is enough time for the
U.S. to detect a covert Iranian push toward a bomb and to
respond.
That standard would hold only for a decade, however. Over

Iran president: Nation will abide by nuke deal


By Nasser Karimi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEHRAN, Iran Irans


President Hassan Rouhani on
Friday pledged that his nation will
abide by its commitments in the
nuclear agreement reached the previous day in Switzerland.
Rouhani also called on world
powers to fulfill their part of the
deal, a reference to further lifting
of sanctions imposed on Tehran
over the controversial nuclear
program.
Everything we promised in the
nuclear talks ... we will remain
loyal (to) and stand by our promises, Rouhani said in a speech to
the nation about the framework
agreement. Iranians do not seek
to deceive the international community, he added.
After a week of grueling negotiations, Iran and the six world powers announced a series of understandings on Thursday on how to
curb Irans nuclear program. They
face a June 30 deadline for a final
deal that is meant to cut significantly into Irans bomb-capable
technology while giving Tehran
quick access to assets and markets
blocked by international sanctions.
The deal was met with criticism
by Iranian hard-liners but was
overwhelmingly backed by the
establishment.
Irans
Foreign
Minister
Mohammad Javad Zarif, who
negotiated the agreement in
Lausanne, Switzerland, received a
heros welcome upon his arrival
back to Tehran on Friday.
Crowds of cheering supporters
surrounded Zarifs vehicle and
chanted slogans supporting him
and Rouhani. One of the chants
also offered sarcastic condolences to both Israel and to the
hard-line Kayhan newspaper,
which has opposed the negotiations from the start.
Zarif tried to reassure Iranians
that the countrys nuclear program
will continue but said any negotiation requires give and take. It is
not supposed to be one party
receiving all the concessions and
the other party surrendering, he
said.

something it has always insisted was for peaceful purposes only
but which the U.S. and its allies
suspected was a cover for pursuing

regional countries or against the

A new chapter of cooperation
with the world will begin when

Some think we have no option
except to fight the world or to surrender. But there is a third way,

chief editor, told the semi-official
Fars news agency.
Another conservative analyst,
Mahdi Mohammad, referred to the
Fordo
underground
uranium
enrichment facility and told the
news outlet that under the deal, a
disaster happened in Fordo.
As part of the Lausanne understandings, Iran agreed to stop
enrichment at Fordo and change
the facility to a nuclear research
center.
Another member of the negotiating team Ali Akbar Salehi,
the head of Irans atomic agency
said, I see the future very
bright and shining.
Ahmad Tavakkoli, a prominent
conservative lawmaker, wrote a
letter to Rouhani on Thursday,
saying the agreement needs ratification by the countrys conservative-dominated parliament.
But supporters of the negotiations have claimed that the nuclear
talks have been conducted under
the direct
supervision
of
Khamenei, and therefore dont
require parliamentary approval.
Khamenei, who has final say on
all state matters, has not made any
public comment on the deal.

End of robust hiring


streak raises doubts
about job market
By Josh Boak
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON For months,


the U.S. economys strength has
been flagging.
Manufacturing slowed. Fewer
homes were built. Cheaper gas
failed to ignite consumer spending. Yet month after month,
employers kept on hiring vigorously.
In March, the economys slump
finally overtook the job market.
Employers added just 126,000
workers the fewest since
December 2013 snapping a 12month streak of gains above
200,000. At the same time, the
unemployment rate remained at
5.5 percent.
The slowdown reported Friday
by the Labor Department posed a
puzzle to economists:
Was the tepid job gain a temporary blip due mainly to a harsh
winter and an economy adjusting
to much lower oil prices?
Or did it mark a return to the middling performance thats defined
much of the nearly 6-year-old
recovery
from
the
Great
Recession?
No one will know for sure until
the
governments
monthly
employment reports later this
spring help gauge the direction of
the job market. That leaves the
U. S. economy until very
recently the envy of other industrialized nations facing a

renewed sense of uncertainty.


We knew less than we thought
we did, said Tara Sinclair, a
George Washington University
professor and chief economist at
Indeed, the job-posting web site.
The optimistic view is that
much of the weakness will pass.
An unseasonably cold March followed a brutal winter that slowed
construction and other key sectors. A since-resolved dispute at
West Coast ports might have
briefly disrupted trade.
Last months subpar hiring
could make the Federal Reserve
less likely to start raising interest
rates from record lows in June, as
some have been anticipating. The
Fed might now decide that the
economy still needs the benefit of
low borrowing costs to generate
healthy growth.
Reflecting that sentiment, government bond yields fell Friday.
The yield on the 10-year U. S.
Treasury note dropped to 1.84 percent from 1.90 percent before the
jobs report was released. U. S.
stock markets were closed in
observance of Good Friday.
Many companies appear to be
taking a cautious approach.
Employers arent laying people off, noted Patrick OKeefe,
director of economic research at
the accounting and consulting
firm CohnReznick. What theyve
decided to do is slow down the
pace at which theyre hiring until
they have more confidence.
Last month, the manufacturing,

building and government sectors
all shed workers. Factories cut
1,000, snapping a 19-month hiring streak. Construction jobs also
fell by 1,000, the first drop in 15
months. Hiring at restaurants
plunged from February. The mining and logging sector, which
includes oil drilling, lost 11,000.
Some other categories managed
to extend their gains. Health care
added
22, 000
workers.
Professional and business services a sector that includes
lawyers, engineers, accountants
and office temps gained
40, 000.
Financial
services
expanded by 8,000, and retailers
maintained their 12-month pace

by adding 25,900.
In addition to reporting sluggish hiring for March, the government revised down its estimate of
job gains in February and January
by a combined 69,000.
Wage growth remained modest
in March as it has for the past six
years. Average hourly wages rose
7 cents to $24.86 an hour. That
marked a year-over-year pay
increase of just 2.1 percent. But
because average hours worked fell
for the first time in 15 months,
Americans actually earned less on
average than they did in February.
Many Americans remain out of
the labor force, partly because
many baby boomers are reaching

Reps for West Coast dockworkers urge union to OK contract


By Justin Pritchard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES A tentative


contract agreement that restored
the flow of international trade
through West Coast seaports earlier this year took a big step closer
Friday to becoming official, as
representatives of the dockworkers union overwhelmingly recommended that rank-and-file members vote to approve the deal.
Difficult contract negotiations
nearly closed 29 seaports from San
Diego to Seattle, causing major
delays in the delivery of billions
of dollars of imports and exports.

STRESS
Continued from page 1
Francisco Negri, head guidance
counselor at Woodside High
School, echoed those sentiments.
He said when deciding where to
enroll, students should focus less
on name recognition, and more on
whether a school offers the type of
programming that interests them
and grants the clearest path to graduation in a field about which they
are passionate.
The message for students is to
choose a program that meets their
needs, rather than go where their
friends are going, or pick a school
just because it has a good name, he
said.
In the case in which a student
does not get accepted into their
school of choice, or is not

Negotiators
for
the
International Longshore and
Warehouse Union reached the tentative, five-year deal in February
with companies that run the massive ships and sprawling marine
terminals which are integral to
trans-Pacific trade.
This week, a caucus of 90 union
delegates met in San Francisco to
study the offer in detail.
On Friday, 78 percent of delegates voted to urge the broader
membership to approve the contract, the union said in a statement. The contract covers about
20,000 workers but only 13,000
have voting rights. Votes are cast

by mail and will be tallied May 22,


the union said.
The tentative agreement restored
labor peace on the West Coast
waterfront, which handles about
$1 trillion of trade each year.
At the height of the dispute,
three dozen ships stacked with
tens of thousands of containers
were anchored outside the twin
ports of Los Angeles and Long
Beach, awaiting space at already
jammed docks. On Friday, there
were 13 vessels, according to the
Marine Exchange of Southern
California.
The executive director of the
Port of Los Angeles estimated in

February that the traffic jam would


take several months to clear.
The
Pacific
Maritime
Association, which represents
shipping lines and port terminal
operators, called the caucus vote
an important endorsement ... and
a critical step forward, in a written statement.
Neither the union nor the maritime association has publicly
released a copy of the contract.
In a letter to his members just
before the final agreement in
February, association President
James McKenna outlined what he
called employers last, best and
final offer.

afforded the opportunity to


choose
between
preferred
options, Negri said it is important to consider attending a community college.
He said community colleges offer
students a low-cost opportunity to
complete general education requirements, while getting another crack
at applying to their school of
choice.
Students can rewrite their script
and put their best foot forward coming out of community college, he
said.
He likened the path of a student
who uses the opportunity granted
by community college to gain
acceptance to their school of
choice to the commute from the
Peninsula to San Francisco there
are a variety of routes, some more
circuitous than others, but they all
lead to the same destination.
Community college is a good

route, and an absolute avenue for


students to get into the school that
they want, he said.
Suzanne Poma, counselor and
transfer center coordinator at
Skyline College in San Bruno,
agreed, and added attending a community college can offer a student
more time to grow their field of
interest before committing to a
major at a university.
She said Skyline offers programs
to many students who may not
have succeeded in high school
because of prohibitive life circumstances, such as family or job
requirements, and community college can provide them another
opportunity to refocus on their education.
Sometimes a student may get a
new sense of belonging and confidence that they may not have had
during high school, she said.
Alex Guiriba, a counselor and

recruiter at College of San Mateo,


concurred and also noted the
threshold for gaining acceptance to
the University of California system is lower out of community college than it is high school.
By going the transfer route ... it
makes accessing these schools a
lot easier, he said.
Beverley Madden, spokeswoman for College of San Mateo,
said many students do not realize
the opportunities afforded to
them by the community college
system, because of the stigma
attached to attending a school
other than four-year university
out of high school.
She said it is important to educate
students, but also, and especially,
parents about alternatives in higher education.
Kleeman said parents need to
acknowledge the role they can play
in influencing their students

retirement age. The percentage of


Americans either working or
looking for work fell in March to
62.7 percent, the lowest such rate
since 1978. That trend illustrates
that one reason the unemployment rate is low is that many people without jobs are no longer
seeking work and so arent counted as unemployed.
The Fed signaled last month that
it would gradually raise rates from
record lows. Marchs weak hiring
could delay an increase until
September or later.
I think (June) is completely off
the table, said Carl Tannenbaum,
chief economist at the financial

Glue guys who could make a difference in Final Four


By Genaro C. Armas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS Reading a box score


isnt always the best way to measure guard
Josh Gassers impact on a Wisconsin game.
Not unless the stat sheet also includes
drawing charges, diving for loose balls and
careening head-first toward the sideline to
save a loose ball.
Meet the Badgers glue guy.
The senior is someone who helps us win
basketball games, makes plays that a lot of
people dont necessarily see that really
change the course of the game, teammate

Frank Kaminsky said.


For all the attention deservedly heaped on
Kaminsky, Gasser has had just as much of an
impact during Badgers two-year run of
Final Four appearances.
The other national semifinalists have
those guys too. Often, its someone like
Gasser who doesnt need the attention lavished on a star like Kaminsky.
The definition of a glue guy could change
depending on the makeup of a team. On
short-handed Duke, theres more than one of
those guys.
Sometimes, its someone who is more of
an experienced scorer. On other teams, a

glue guy could be a freshman.


The common quality is that they do a lot
of the little things besides score, whether
on or off the floor.
A look at Gasser and other glue guys to
watch in the Final Four on Saturday:

Gasser slides into the glue guy role effortlessly, even though the high school scorer
had to adjust once he arrived in Madison.
The goal was to do anything I could to get
on the court, Gasser said.

Wisconsin

The reason I came to Wisconsin was so


that I could win games, win championships
and compete in championships, Gasser
said. This year, weve definitely done that,
and I think the wins speak for themselves,
and I think thats the proudest thing I have
from my career.

Gasser averages 6. 9 points a game,


though he is also 40 percent shooter from
3-point range.
But hes most valued as Wisconsins best
on-ball defender, typically drawing the
assignment of trying to shut down a teams
best scorer.

Scots earn split with M-A Sharks


keep their
playoffs hopes alive
Sharks 3, Coyotes 1

By Nathan Mollat

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

By Josh Dubow
The baseball teams in the Peninsula
Athletic Leagues Bay Division are so evenly matched, Carlmont manager Rich Vallero
believes as long as a team doesnt get swept
by anybody, they have a chance to make a
run at a division title.
So the Scots were under a lot of pressure
Friday afternoon when they hosted MenloAtherton, after the Bears had beaten
Carlmont 4-3 on Tuesday.
A two-run blast from sophomore Vinny
Bologna and a gutty pitching performance
from Ryan Giberton translated into a
Carlmont 3-1 victory, assuring the split
with M-A.
If they win [Friday], theyre 3-3 and
were 4-4, Vallero said. We separated ourselves a little bit (with the win).
Much like the first meeting Wednesday in
which the teams combined for seven hits,
Fridays game was a pitchers duel between
Giberton and M-A starter Kody Conrad.
Both starters went five innings with
Giberton allowing only one run on three
hits and Conrad giving up three runs on six
hits.
It was the Carlmont offense, however, that
took advantage of Conrads mistakes. There
were only a couple, but the Scots made them
pay
each
time.
The first came in the first inning when
Bologna turned on a 0-1 offering and hit a
towering home run over the 325-foot sign
in left-center field to drive in Julian Billot,
who had walked to lead off the bottom of the
first and moved to second on an Aaron
Pleschner groundout.
Off the bat, it appeared the ball might be
too high to get out, but it just kept carrying
and the M-A center fielder, who appeared to
have a bead on it, finally gave up the chase
as he ran into the outfield fence as the ball
landed just on the other side.
Hes an unbelievable talent, Vallero said
of Bologna, who as a sophomore is already
in his second varsity season. He has all the
tools. Hes already on pro guys radar.
It was the third game in a row in which the

Carlmonts Vinny Bologna watches his first-inning, two-run homer during the Scots 3-1 win
over Menlo-Atherton Friday afternoon in Belmont.

SAN JOSE With each win, the challenge


of getting back to the playoffs gets slightly
more realistic for the San Jose Sharks even if
they still need plenty of outside help to get
there.
Logan Couture and Joe Pavelski scored in
the opening 5 minutes and the Sharks held on
for their fourth win in five games, 3-1 over the
Arizona Coyotes on Friday night.
We talked a while ago about playing well
and putting a string of wins together and see
what happens, coach Todd McLellan said.
The guys have done a good job. I dont think
theyre getting too far ahead. I dont think we
feel any more comfortable now than we did a
week ago. We shouldnt. We still need a lot of
help.
Matt Nieto added an insurance goal late for
the Sharks, who moved within three points of
Los Angeles and Winnipeg in the race for the
final wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
The Kings and Jets each have one game in hand
over San Jose, which is trying to make the
playoffs for an 11th straight season.
We put ourselves in this position, Couture
said. We have no one to blame but ourselves
that were in the position were in now. We
cant change anything. We cant go back and
win games that we lost. We can only win the
games that are ahead of us. So thats what were
trying to do.
Antti Niemi made 20 saves in his return from
an illness that forced him to miss the past two
games.
Mark Arcobello scored for the Coyotes, who
have lost 23 of 27 games and have not won in
regulation since Feb. 3 in Columbus. Louis
Domingue made 34 saves.
Arizona remained two points ahead of
Buffalo, which has the worst record in the
league and currently the best chance to win the
draft lottery.
Theyre a team with lots to play for and we
didnt execute under pressure, coach Dave
Tippett said. We didnt match their desperation.

Kos under-par streak ends at 29 at LPGAs first major


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RANCHO MIRAGE Lydia Ko slashed


out of the left rough on the par-4 13th hole
and watched her ball bounce up on the elevated green, curl to the right and settle 15
feet from the pin.
Maybe this was her day after all. Back
under par for the round after a birdie on the

par-5 11th, the 17-year-old New Zealander


was in position for another birdie and a
cushion in her bid to break the LPGA Tour
record for consecutive rounds under par.
Instead, the putt circled the cup and came
back at her. Five holes and two bogeys
later, she signed for a streak-ending 1-over
73 on Friday in the ANA Inspiration.
After that 360 horseshoe, everything

kind of turned around, Ko said. I would


have never thought it would do a whole circle around the hole. Thats harder to do than
holing that putt.
Needing a birdie on the par-5 18th to
extend the streak to 30, Ko hit her second
shot into the water after catching a flyer out
of the right rough on her layup attempt.
I just hit a three-quarter 6-iron, Ko said.

I would have never guessed that I was


going to hit a 6-iron 190, not even if I was
Lexi (Thompson). Obviously, that was the
wrong club at the end of the day, but I
thought even if it flew out of there, it would
have at least stopped.

Could six-man rotations Twins pitcher


be in baseballs future? fails drug test
By Ben Walker

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Now this was definitely a deep rotation.


In manager Joe Girardis office at spring training, the
March calendar was posted on a big whiteboard. Inside each
box, he wrote the initials of the starting pitcher that day.
At one point, the succession of New York Yankees arms
stretched past a week: Chase Whitley, Chris Capuano,
Masahiro Tanaka, Adam Warren, Michael Pineda, Esmil
Rogers, Nathan Eovaldi, CC Sabathia.
Eight games, eight different starters.
OK, maybe not so strange in exhibition play. Still, in this
era when big league teams are trying to protect their pitchers
from tight triceps, twisted shoulders and Tommy John surgery, could it be time to consider a six-man rotation?
In a perfect world, its something thats a great concept,
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said.
You hear many times the interest level in having a sixman rotation, and theres a lot of positives from that, he
said. But its hard to pull off.
For more than three decades, a five-man rotation has been
the standard in the majors. The Los Angeles Dodgers often
are credited with doing it first, in the early 1970s with a staff
that, in fact, included Tommy John.
Over the years, there have been exceptions.
Jim Tracy tried a four-man rotation with a 75-pitch limit
for a while with Colorado in 2012. The Rockies set a franchise record for losses and Tracy lost his job.
In 2011, Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen
briefly went with a six-man rotation. His team finished with
a losing record and he, too, was gone.
Truth is, most teams have trouble finding just a few solid
starters. And keeping them healthy, thats a whole other
story.
Yu Darvish and Zack Wheeler already are out for the season, Cliff Lee and Justin Verlander are ailing, Matt Harvey
and Jose Fernandez are coming back after major surgery.
Plenty more on those lists.
Could an extra starter mean extra rest and a diminished

workload, and possibly fewer injuries?


Theres no guarantee that a six-man rotation, for example, which implies fewer innings pitched with more days off,
is going to have any impact on certain cases, Mets general
manager Sandy Alderson said soon after Wheelers damaged
elbow was diagnosed.
Six-man rotations, more days off, more spot starts by
pitchers in your minor league system, there are lots of ways
it can be addressed, he said. But ultimately some elbows
are going to break down and some are not.
To Toronto knuckleballer R.A. Dickey, a six-man setup
would certainly cut down wear and tear on pitchers.
But its hard enough to find five starters right now that
can do the job. Its very difficult to start. I think that would
mean giving some of your best guys less opportunity to
help win games, and I dont think anybody is going to do
that, he said.
Put Baltimore opening day starter Chris Tillman in that
camp.
Its like the more off days you have, the rustier you get,
he said. We did it a little bit last year. At first it got to me a
little bit. I wasnt a fan, but we pitched well, and we kind of
got it going, so you cant hate it. If it was my preference, I
would not have it.
Even so, the idea of six starters is a very strong trend,
St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said.
There are a lot of pitchers, ours included, that dont like
the thought of it at all. But this game is constantly evolving, he said.
Change certainly doesnt come swiftly on the field.
It took more than 100 years before pronounced defensive
shifts became commonplace. The concept of one-out relievers or pitchers batting eighth or five-man rotations also
took a while.
In 1971, 13 pitchers made at least 38 starts, with Mickey
Lolich leading with 45 (and 376 innings).
No one has made as many as 37 starts in the majors since
Greg Maddux in 1991. Dickey and Tillman were among 10
pitchers who tied for the major league lead with 34 starts last
season.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FORT MYERS, Fla. The Minnesota Twins spent $55 million on Ervin Santana to bring some much-needed talent and
experience to their beleaguered starting rotation.
Now, thanks to an 80-game suspension for testing positive
for a banned substance, the Twins will be without their
biggest offseason acquisition for half the season. And their
pitching staff has become a major question mark once again.
Santana was suspended by Major League Baseball on Friday
after testing positive for the performance-enhancing substance Stanozolol.
Its disappointing. Its difficult,
Twins GM Terry Ryan said. We had a fairly decent spring. Now weve got to
regroup here and hopefully it wont affect
us as we move forward.
In a statement released through the
players union, Santana said he was surprised by the news but does not plan to
Ervin Santana appeal. New to the Twins this year, hell
miss the first half of the season.
This was the third penalty for a positive Stanozolol test
reported by MLB in the last eight days, following Seattle
pitcher David Rollins and Atlanta pitcher Arodys Vizcaino.
A person familiar with the penalties told The Associated
Press that MLB will look into whether theres a common
source to the three cases. The person spoke on condition of
anonymity because the investigation is not finished.
Santana signed a four-year contract with the Twins after
pitching last season with Atlanta and was slotted in the No. 2
spot behind Phil Hughes in a rotation that has been among
the worst in the majors the last four years. The 32-year-old
righty will lose $5,901,639 of his $13.5 million salary this
season.

Angels surprised Hamilton wont be disciplined


By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton will not be disciplined by
Major League Baseball for his latest problems
involving cocaine and alcohol. Team officials
responded by saying they were surprised and
disappointed.
Angels general manager Jerry Dipoto said he
disagrees with the ruling by an arbitrator
appointed under MLBs joint drug program with
the players association. MLB said earlier
Friday that it disagreed with the ruling.
Hamilton, a five-time All-Star and the 2010
AL MVP, has played poorly during the first two
years of his five-year, $125 million contract
with the Angels, who still owe him $83 million
in salary over the next three years.
He is subject to the treatment program for
prior violations involving cocaine stretching
back a decade.
The Angels public stance supporting punishment of Hamilton is the most visible evidence
yet of the clubs disenchantment with the high-

priced outfielder, who has


been injured for long
stretches of two largely
miserable seasons in
Orange County.
Do I agree with the decision that was made by the
treatment
board?
Absolutely not, Dipoto
Josh Hamilton said before the Angels
exhibition game against
the Dodgers. But thats not my decision to
make.
In a statement, MLB said it will seek to
address deficiencies in the manner in which
drugs of abuse are addressed under the program
in the collective bargaining process.
Hamilton self-reported a new issue this year
involving both cocaine and alcohol, a person
familiar with the case said. The person spoke to
The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because those details were not made public.
MLB said it took the position that Hamilton
violated his treatment program and is subject to
discipline by the commissioner.

Baseball defines cocaine as a drug of abuse,


which is covered by different rules than those
for performance-enhancing drugs, such as
steroids.
A four-person treatment board created by the
joint drug program, which includes one lawyer
and one medical representative each appointed
by management and the players association,
deadlocked 2-2 on whether Hamiltons conduct
was a violation of his treatment program and
was subject to discipline. That created the need
for an arbitrator to break the tie.
A person familiar with the process said the
arbitrator was Roberta Golick, a former president of the National Academy of Arbitrators.
That person spoke on condition of anonymity
because her name was not announced.
A hearing was held before Golick, and
Hamilton was represented by lawyers Jay
Reisinger and Tina Miller. The arbitrator said
only that Hamilton was not subject to discipline and did not give reasons for the decision,
the first person familiar with the case said.
The Major League Baseball Players
Association said in a statement that it will

respect the integrity of the negotiated joint


drug agreement process and protocols, as well
as any decisions that are the result of that
process.
Hamilton, who turns 34 in May, won the AL
MVP award with Texas during a six-year stretch
as one of baseballs best all-around players for
the Rangers and Cincinnati Reds. But his career
headed downhill in his final season in Texas,
and it has picked up speed with Los Angeles.
Hamilton has managed just 31 homers and
123 RBIs in two seasons with the Angels. He
played in just 89 games because of injuries and
struggled at the plate throughout last season,
culminating in an 0-for-13 performance in the
Angels three-game loss to Kansas City in the
AL Division Series.
After resting his ailing right shoulder
throughout the offseason in the teams unsuccessful attempt to avoid surgery, Hamilton had
surgery in February that will prevent him from
playing until at least May. Hamilton never
reported to spring training in Tempe, Arizona,
instead pursuing his surgery rehabilitation at
home in Houston with the Angels blessing.

Zealand Womens Open, ended at 32.


Ko was tied for 30th at even par, seven
strokes behind second-round leader Sei
Young Kim. Before Ko started her afternoon
round, Kim eagled the 18th for a 65 to get to
7-under 137. The long-hitting South Korean
player hit a hybrid to 6 feet to set up the
eagle.
I really hit the ball well and my putting
was really good, Kim said. Everything
was really good.
It wasnt for Ko, especially with her driver. She missed eight of the 14 fairways, four
to the left and four to the right.
I just wasnt hitting fairways and then it
just kind of becomes no fun, Ko said. Its
fun because youre trying to hit hook shots
and low shots out of the trees. In that way

its fun, but no, I just really couldnt get my


driver going. When youre in that kind of
position, its not easy around this course.
After the horseshoe on 13, her 13-foot try
on the par-3 14th went by the left edge and
she bogeyed the par-4 15th to drop to even
par.
On 15, she drove into the right rough a
thick tangled mess of Bermuda, rye and poa
annua grasses and tried to play a draw
around a large tree.
She didnt make clean contact and the ball
came up short, hitting high in the right
greenside bunker and tumbling to the bottom. Her blast was too hard and low and
went through the green, leaving a 15-footer
from the fringe that she couldnt hole.
She missed a 20-foot birdie putt on the

The Sharks added to the lead just after a
penalty to B.J. Crombeen expired when
Patrick Marleau set up Pavelski for a one-timer

It was Pavelskis sixth goal in four games this
season against Arizona.
Its always nice when you score early in a
game, Couture said. That was part of our
game plan, get one on them early. We got two
right away. So it was a good start to the game.
Things were so bad for Arizona that even
what seemed like a goal was wiped away when

David Moss put his glove on a puck that was


about to trickle over the goal line.
The Coyotes managed to get on the board
early in the second when Arcobellos centering pass deflected off defenseman Brent Burns

Arizona came close to getting the equalizer
late in the second but Sam Gagner hit the post
on one chance and Niemi just managed to get
his glove on a deflected puck that was floating
toward the empty net.
Nieto knocked in the rebound of a Chris
Tierney shot late in the third to give San Jose
breathing room.

board for the first five innings.


M-A didnt help itself, however.
We had very bad approaches at the
plate, said M-A manager Mike Amoroso.
We were reaching.
M-A (2-4 PAL Bay, 5-11 overall) was hitless until there were two outs in the third
before leadoff hitter Evan Easton singled to
left. Nick Prainito followed by legging out
an infield hit, but both runners were left
stranded.
It was a recurring theme for the Bears, who
only had two base runners make it as far as
second base through the first five innings.
We didnt play M-A baseball, Amoroso

said. We didnt hit and if we cant get hits,


we cant hit and run.
Carlmont (4-2, 11-5), however, was
unable to take advantage of its scoring
chances. The Scots had runners in scoring
position in the second, third and fifth
innings, and could only cash in one of
them.
We left some [scoring opportunities] out
there. You have to take advantages of
opportunities, Vallero said. I feel like we
havent played our best baseball yet.
Carlmont had runners on second and third
with one out in the third inning and came up
empty, but finally pushed across an insur-

ance run in the bottom of the fifth. Plescher


drew a one-out walk, stole second and went
to third on a wild pitch. He ended up scoring
on an Alex Pennes seeing-eye single
between first and second base into right
field for the RBI.
M-A got on the board in the top of the
sixth when Johnston doubled, went to third
on a wild pitch and scored on Matt
McGarrys infield hit deep in the hole at
short.
Carlmonts Spencer Stewart gave up the
RBI after replacing Giberton with a 1-1
count on McGarry. Stewart pitched the final
two innings in picking up the save.

SAN FRANCISCO Matt Cain pitched


four effective innings, Buster Posey hit his
first home run of the spring and the San

4-0 on Friday night.
Cain entered with an 8.22 ERA but was
mostly sharp in his first game at AT&T Park
since July 9. The three-time All-Star, who
missed the second half of 2014 following
elbow surgery, allowed three hits, struck out
three and walked two.
He got just enough support from Posey,
with a little boost from Oaklands defense.

He doesnt have Gassers savvy or leadership qualities.
But he does present some other problems for teams.
Big problems.
Trey professionally will be a (power forward), a stretch

Everyone needs to contribute with just eight scholarship
players on the roster. For assistant coach Jon Scheyer, the
Blue Devils glue guy is Matt Jones.
One day it might be hitting a shot. One day it might an

going to do whatever it takes to win, Scheyer said.
Jones is more of a natural for the role, the assistant said.
He has started the last 11 games.
A game later, Duke moved junior forward Amile Jefferson
to the bench.
One glue guy replaced another.
Scheyer said that Jefferson has had to adjust to learning
how to play next to two freshman phenoms: Jabari Parker
last season, and Jahlil Okafor this season.
It can be anybody, but just someone who brings something to the team that needs a spark, energy, enthusiasm,
Jefferson said.

Denzel Valentine can stuff the stat sheet, averaging 14.3


points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists.
He can hurt you making a pass. He can hurt you knocking
down a 3. He can hurt you with his defense, Spartans assistant coach Dwayne Stephens said.
But he does just as much off the court. If there is a big game
or prize fight on TV over a weekend, the Spartans will gather at Valentines place. If accountability is necessary in the
locker room, Valentine will speak up.
Off the floor, hes the kind of guy that kind of brings
everybody together, Stephens said.

Tiger Woods to make


return at the Masters
By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Tiger Woods ended all that speculation about his game by letting
everyone see for themselves.
He said Friday he will play next
week in the Masters.
Golfs biggest attraction and
four-time Masters champion
played two practice rounds at
A u g u s t a
National this
week before a
s i m p l e
an n o un cemen t
on his website
that he would
end his twomonth leave on
the
sports
Tiger Woods biggest stage.
Im playing
in the Masters, Woods said on his
website. Its obviously very
important to me, and I want to be
there. Ive worked a lot on my
game, and Im looking forward to
competing. Im excited to get to
Augusta, and I appreciate everyones support.
Woods was last seen at a golf
tournament on Feb. 5 at Torrey
Pines. He hit a sand wedge some
30 yards over the green, duffed a
chip coming back, bladed the next
one too hard and made double
bogey. One tee shot later, he withdrew because of tightness in his
lower back, saying that his
glutes didnt activate after a
delay in cool, foggy weather.

Of far greater concern was the


state of his game.
Woods has played on two tournaments this year and completed
just 47 holes. His short game was
shockingly bad at the Phoenix
Open, where he shot a career-worst
82 and missed the cut by nine
shots. And he didnt get out of the
rst round at Torrey Pines.
A week later, he said his game
and his scores were unacceptable.
I enter a tournament to compete at
the highest level, and when I think
Im ready, Ill be back.
Those are words by which he
will be judged next week at the
Masters.
Woods played an 18-hole practice round Tuesday at Augusta, and
he played again at the club on
Friday, according to his agent.
He will have gone nine weeks
without competition when he hits
his opening tee shot on Thursday,
which is not unprecedented for
Woods. He went nearly ve
months without playing when he
returned in 2010 from a crisis in
his personal life that led to one of
the greatest downfalls in sport. He
tied for fourth that year.
Scrutiny might be even greater
this time around.
The last time Woods took an
extended break before the Masters,
he had won his previous tournament at the Australian Masters and
was No. 1 in the world after a
seven-win season. Now, his game
has been in disarray over a series
of injuries, physical limitations
and another change in coaching.

Calipari, Kaminsky earn the APs


coach, player of the year honors
By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS John Calipari has been


dealing with detractors for years.
They call him the embodiment of everything thats wrong in the one-and-done world
of college basketball. Hes a crook who landed two programs on probation, a snake-oil salesman who only won a
national title because he
was able to sell Kentucky
to some top prospects.
Perhaps that perception
has nally started to
change.
After molding a roster
John Calipari full of McDonalds AllAmericans into a 38-0
juggernaut thats two wins shy of another
championship, Calipari was voted AP coach
of the year on Friday.
He received 40 rst-place votes from the 65member national media panel. Tony Bennett
of Virginia was runner-up with nine votes and
Notre Dames Mike Brey got ve.
Meanwhile, Wisconsin forward Frank
Kaminsky was honored as the AP player of the
year.
I know this, Im the same guy Ive always
been, Calipari said, when asked whether
opinions of him particularly those in the
media have softened over the years.

Well, not really. A lot


of things change as you
get older. My hearts the
same, Calipari added.
Hopefully Ive matured
and grown up a little bit.
Thats questionable also, I
hear.
Speaking of growing
up,
Kaminsky has certainFrank
ly done that the past couKaminsky
ple of years. After averaging 10 minutes a game as a sophomore, then
having a breakout junior campaign,
Kaminsky took another step forward in guiding the Badgers back to the Final Four.
The senior was rewarded with 58 rst-place
votes. Duke freshman Jahlil Okafor received
ve, and Willie Cauley-Stein of Kentucky and
Jerian Grant of Notre Dame each received one.
I thought about it a little bit, Kaminsky
said of winning the award. Obviously, wasnt
one of my main priorities. Getting back to the
Final Four was it. But being here and being
honored by the AP is awesome. Im grateful a
lot of guys think of me in that manner.
Its hardly surprising that Kaminsky was
such an overwhelming pick.
Besides being a dominant inside-outside
threat, the fuzzy 7-footer also has wicked
sense of humor. Hes become one of the ringleaders on the fun-loving Badgers, his effervescent personality endearing himself to
coaches, players and fans alike.

Free-range
parenting
By Emily Shen

have never been quite as sheltered as the


children in the stories columnist
Charles Wergin tells in his column on
the differences in parenting across American
and German cultures (The Case for FreeRange Parenting, in the
March 20 edition of the
New York Times).
I did not realize my case
was becoming increasingly rare until recently. I
thought that my childhood
was standard. Starting
from kindergarten, I was
allowed to roam my entire
neighborhood. It encouraged me to divert my attention from the television screen to the outdoors, and gave me
the opportunity to make friends, and to be
creative, and to do lots of other things I would
never have been able to do had I not been
given the freedom I was thankfully given.
Now that I am older, the area I am allowed to
explore has obviously expanded beyond my
neighborhood, especially since there are 30
miles between the city where I live and the
city where I go to school.
Yet I have classmates and friends that seem
like they are perpetually grounded, only
going to school and back, never even thinking that going places was anything more than
a means to what really mattered work, or
school or sports.
I am afraid for people like that. I am afraid
for their futures. I am afraid that they are so
repressed that they will explode and not know
at all how to limit themselves when their parents are finally forced to give them the freedom that was so long overdue. It will come in
a sudden rush, and they will drown in it.
There do need to be rules. I am not at all
advocating for something that even borderlines on child neglect. I cannot be out too
late, and I must tell my parents where I am
going. We know to call each other to check
in.
My parents care about where I am, and I
know that they worry for my safety and that,
as the oldest child, they arent used to this
feeling of uncertainty, but they give me this
huge amount of freedom because they trust
me. And I am so, so, so grateful to them for
doing that, for pushing their boundaries and
mine, because, though it may seem contradictory, the distance that I am allowed to put
between myself and them allows us to be closer.

Ex-Machina and It Follows


breathe life into stale genres
By Jake Coyle

NEW YORK Alex


Garland has learned a few
things in his years as a science-fiction screenwriter:
namely, that money doesnt
always help.

Garland is now making his


directorial debut with the

Ex-Machina, after earlier
scripting the influential zombie thriller 28 Days Later
and seeing his first book,

Lambert & Stamp: Backstage story of The Who


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Lambert and Stamp would mold The Who into one of the
great rock n roll bands.

The teenage revolution was in full


force on the fall 1964 night that Kit
Lambert and Chris Stamp stumbled
into the Railway Tavern, a London pub
where a band called the High Numbers
was playing and mods were gyrating.
It was Londons Swinging 60s, with
its subculture explosion and stylish
youths.
Such is the scene, glimpsed in
footage shot that night, at the beginning of the riotously entertaining new
documentary Lambert & Stamp.
Lambert and Stamp were assistant film
directors, frustrated by not ascending

to the directors chair, but full of wild


ideas. They wanted to find a band to
make a film about, but their plans had
wider cultural aspirations: a mad
(expletive) concoction of stuff, says
Stamp in the film.
The frenetic energy and loud rhythm
and blues riffs of the High Numbers hit
like a thunderclap, even if they lacked
in looks. (Later, some would worry
that they were too ugly to make it big.)
When Lambert and Stamp became their
managers, they urged them to take an
earlier, abandoned name: The Who.
The infatuation was mutual. Lambert
and Stamp had zero knowledge of the
music business, but they were a captivating duo. Lambert, the son of a

famous conductor and an Oxford grad,


was posh, erudite and gay at a time
when homosexuality was illegal in
Britain. Stamp, the brother of the
actor Terence Stamp, was a dashing
East End Cockney, the son of a tug
boat captain. Neither cared a lick for
convention.
I loved them immediately, says
Pete Townshend, the guitarist and
songwriter of The Who, in the film.
They changed my life forever.
Lambert and Stamp would mold The
Who (among other things they encouraged the songwriting of Townshend)
into one of the great rock n roll

Summers loves Sting like a brother, but that
doesnt mean he sugarcoats his feelings
about his former bandmate in the new documentary, Cant Stand Losing You:
Surviving the Police.
Summers likened his sometimes-biting
analysis of Sting in the film to dishing on a
beloved family member, rather than harboring any bad feelings.
I really believe that at the end of the
day, theres great love and brotherhood
between us because we all experienced
something quite incredible, Summers said

were making it, is that we were spending
too much money, says Garland. When
youre spending that much money, either
consciously or unconsciously, you start to
think about recouping. You start to think
about the business of film and trying to
make it entertaining or trying to adrenalize
it at moments when its the wrong thing to
do.
Garlands Ex-Machina, which opens in
theaters April 10, was made for $15 million, not the $50 million it took to make
Sunshine, a philosophical journey to the
sun that eventually dissolved into more of a
monster movie. Ex-Machina, however,
holds its trance throughout the tale of a
young computer programmer (Domhnall
Gleeson) who flies to the remote lair of a
tech billionaire (Oscar Isaac), and is introduced to a very realistic artificial intelligence (Alicia Vikander).
The one thing I do know is that I really,
really want creative freedom not just for
me but the people Im working with, says

WEEKEND JOURNAL
the British writer-director. You need to be
Christopher Nolan to have creative freedom
at that level. Thats what, like, two or three
people in the world.
Instead of fighting those odds, a new generation of filmmakers is breathing fresh
life into the often over-commercialized
genres of sci-fi and horror. A regular diet of
big-budget releases have helped stagnate
genre thrills by over-relying on visualeffects spectacle (Jupiter Ascending,
After Earth), while mainstream horror has
been overrun by gimmicky shlock (the
Paranormal Activity series) and familiar
retreads (I, Frankenstein).
But many of the most exciting horror and
sci-fi films in recent years Under the
Skin, The Babadook, Her, Upstream
Color, the Black Mirror miniseries
have come from independent filmmakers
working with small or even skimpy budgets, who prize creative control in genres
where final cut is scarce.
Janet Pierson, head of film at South By
Southwest, where Ex-Machina premiered,
has regularly programmed inventive genre
fare. While shes witnessed steadily intrepid sci-fi and horror for years, she sees a
larger shift.
What Ive noticed is that the young peo-

ple that come in here, particularly more and


more of the women, their first love is genre
films which is a real change, which is
something that didnt exist before, said
Pierson. I come from the more traditional
art-house generation.
David Robert Mitchell, writer-director of
the indie horror sensation It Follows, is a
kind of combination genre-art house filmmaker. His first movie, The Myth of the
American Sleepover, was his version of a
teen drama that portrayed the quieter
moments of adolescence, rather than the
melodramatic extremes usually depicted in
the genre.
It Follows is his stab at horror. The
DVDs he pulled off his shelf in preparation
make a respectable horror syllabus:
Nosferatu (the original and the Werner
Herzog version), Romero, Cronenberg,
Polanski, the classic Universal monster
movies, the Hammer classics, The
Shining and many more.
Theres a bunch of us that grew up watching what are now seen as classic horror
films, says Mitchell, a Michigan native.
Thats probably affected a lot of us to, if
not update them, be inspired by them.
Mitchells deep appreciation of the genre
is self-evident in It Follows, an atmos-

THE DAILY JOURNAL


pheric suburban teenager thriller with a
synthesizer score evocative of John
Carpenter. It Follows has crossed over
from art house to mainstream: it expanded
last weekend to some 1, 200 theaters,
despite earlier plans for video-on-demand.
It pulled in $4 million at the box office,
about twice its budget.
While he acknowledges more money
would definitely be helpful and that he
may later be interested in directing bigger
studio films, my intention is to kind of
take my time with that, says Mitchell.
And thats by choice.
Ex-Machina and It Follows both create suspense by relying on acting and
atmosphere. It Follows, in which an
unseen, unknown entity is passed like a
sexually transmitted disease, works like
Jaws or The Evil Dead: What we imagine is more fearful than anything a movie
can physically represent. Ex-Machina
has the distilled feel of a chamber piece:
Its all questions and mysteries to unravel,
none of the fat of special effects setpieces.
What that stuff does is it takes the heat
off characterization and themes and story,
says Garland. What a chamber piece does
is it leaves you nowhere to hide.

the fragile democracy has become a dictatorship.
Director Andy Grieve defended the frank
tone of the film, saying it meant to take a
first person approach, so he initially didnt worry about how it would be received.
Still, he was happy when Sting and
Copeland signed off on it.
They had no objections, actually. We
were all sensitive about it, and Andy did
not want to appear like he was Sting-bashing, so we just tried to present it fair. I
think its fair, Grieve said.

Camel. He also claimed that Sting purposely hid the tapes after Summers recorded all the parts himself. That track eventually went on to win a Grammy Award for
best rock instrumental performance.
In retrospect, its hilarious, Summers
said. Its like in any band or marriage.
Here you had three guys, three pushy guys,
all vying for their space, wanting to be the
guy. But you cant be because its a trio.
Then he added: I love those two guys,
and thats the way it is. Of course, theres
ego, but you work it out, Summers said.
In retrospect, that worked for a while,
but by the fourth album, Ghost in the
Machine, Summers admits things began
to spiral out of control. Besides issues
within the band, he had the added stress of
an impending divorce and could see the
band was coming apart.

bands. And it all started with an idea
that, as Townshend says in the documentary, was intended to blow itself
up in a year or two.
Lambert & Stamp, the directorial
debut of James D. Cooper, a veteran
cinematographer, is an intimate rock
documentary that eludes most of the
standard beats of the genre. By focusing on the managers the bands socalled fifth and sixth members, the

about the three of us sort of pushing that
envelope a bit. The ego was starting to
come up between all of us ... it was the
beginning of the end, as it were, he said.
Summers regrets not having a proper
farewell tour before the band broke up in
1986. Instead, they reunited 21 years later
for a successful world tour.
We waited too long, but it didnt seem
to make any difference, he said.
Summers also praised Sting for writing
and performing in the Broadway musical
The Last Ship, inspired by Stings memories of growing up in a shipbuilding community in northeast England; it closed earlier this year after a four-month run.
Hes a very gifted artist and a great
musician. I only have great respect for
him, Summers said. I absolutely applaud
his efforts for doing it and seeing it all the
way through. It takes a lot of guts.
He added: I think some people really
got it but I think for a general audience, it
was maybe a little bit too esoteric.
Cant Stand Losing You: Surviving the
Police opens in Los Angeles on Friday,
and in other cities later in the month.

Its almost all depicted in the film in


black and white: gritty in period
footage, classy in contemporary interviews. Stamp died in 2012, but was
interviewed extensively before passing away. Lambert, though, died in
1981. His presence (the more magnetic and fascinating of the two) hovers
over the film from older footage.
Lambert & Stamp hums frantically
in the first half with the spirit of teen
rebellion that propelled both The Who
and its unconventional orchestrators.
(Daltrey, Townshend says in a way that
could only be cutting, was the only
conventional figure of the bunch.)
But the film, perhaps inevitably, subsides in the second half, as the familiar
fallout of fame drugs, death, disputes over a film of the rock opera
Tommy wrecks the relationships.
Anyway, anyhow, anywhere I

choose, was the anthem The Who


sang, and their managers (who signed
Jimi Hendrix to a record deal before
actually having a record label) were
perfect representatives of the song.
Their genius was in realizing the sea
change that was happening. You
dont market TO them. You market
THEM, Townshend says of the new
audience relationship. Speaking to a
skeptical news program, in French no
less, Lambert predicts that the 60s
Mod scene was no mere fad, but a youth
movement that would regenerate with
every generation. Indeed, the Who got
older; the kids stayed the same age.
Lambert & Stamp, a Sony Pictures
Classics release, is rated R by the
Motion Picture Association of America
for language, some drug content and
brief nudity. Running time: 117 minutes. Three stars out of four.

ROCK
Continued from page 1
moment, not specifically staged for
this rehearsal. Today, Kaufman, who is
13 years old, along with a room of
about 20 other teenagers, were practicing for their April 18 concert dedicated
to a band most of them had never heard
of before a few months ago The
Who.
The band of teenagers is a part of an
international program called School of
Rock, guided to help kids learn and
appreciate music through classic rock
n roll.
The program has 150 locations
across the world and over the years
pulled in thousands of teens learning
the likes of Led Zeppelin, Radiohead
and Guns n Roses. And a lot of the push
is coming from parents.
Over here, the cultures different. The
parents are really into rock out here,
Noboa said. After a while the kids get
into it, but its the parents that come in
and say I want my kid to play
Sabbath.

Teenage wasteland
Noboa, who helped found the School
of Rock, grew up in Plainfield, New
Jersey, and was surrounded by music
growing up.
I grew up doing this, playing in
bands and such. Music, electric guitars,
drums and having a band setup in your
house was typical, said Noboa, adding
that it was his growing up during the
70s when suburban flight had given
birth to bored teens with too many
instruments in their garages.
Noboa went on to live in
Philadelphia, where the South Street
American-punk culture of leather jackets and mohawks exploded during the
80s and had given birth to bands like
The Dead Milkmen and later Green Day.
Noboa had started playing in a few
bands, most notably his band The True
Detectives.
However, after being in rock culture
for a few years, Noboa started to notice
that one by one, as if it were right out of
a Jim Carroll song, all of his friends
started to die off.
Our scene kind of died out in the 90s
and a lot of our peers left music and
some ODd, said Noboa. The realities
of a rock n roll scene hit, and it takes
its toll. You know, were standing
around and looking around and theres
nobody left.
It was out of that realization that
Noboa partnered up with a local band
rival and acquaintance, Paul Green, to
start an after-school rock program for
kids, originally called the Paul Green
School of Rock Music.
We took this idea that well, its too
late for me but based on the mistakes we

all made, maybe I can do something to


change that. Maybe catch some young
people before they get the wrong
ideas, said Noboa. In an urban setting, theres a lot of great brilliance
brewing about, but it gets shut down
pretty quickly.
The school opened up in 1996,
playing out of a garage and inviting
whomever to join. In one instance,
dozens of kids were showing up to jam
out with Green and Noboa. He called
those kids his Army who were out on
a different mission.
Soon after, in 1998, they had established their first brick-and-mortar
building together on Race Street, which
now houses a Scientology church.
The school exploded into multiple
franchises across the nation, even making it into CNNs Five Hot Franchises
segment. When Noboa moved out to
San Francisco in 2004, he brought the
school along with him until he opened
another location in downtown San
Mateo in 2008.
The initial motivation to start this
program was because in Philadelphia,
there wasnt anything like this for
kids, said Noboa. It was about kids at
risk, to some degree, but San Mateo is a
very different picture than Philadelphia
for a teenager or for someone about to
be a teenager.
But that hasnt stopped the suburban
kids of San Mateo from ramping up the
distortion. In fact, the program has
been embraced across the Peninsula. A
School of Rock recently opened in Palo
Alto and the city of San Mateo has
asked the school to do acoustic sets on
Sundays starting in April.

We dont need no education


Out of the teens in the rehearsal that
Saturday, only a handful had been classically trained before coming into
School of Rock.
Kaufman was trained on the piano.
And even though he appreciates the
sound and the prominence that a grand
piano has to offer, nothing compares to
the fun that rock n roll gives.
You have sheets of paper in front of
you and they just tell you to Play this.
Nope. Start over, said Kaufman. Here
its more Play these three chords. Play
it in this pattern and switch at this
point.
Christina Wunderlich, 13, also was
trained on the piano prior to coming to
School of Rock, but has now taken an
interest in electric and acoustic guitar.
And despite the difference in experience when walking into the school,
ultimately all of their experiences are
the same for the first few weeks.
We just say for kids to come on in
and well teach you to play music, but
not the boring route. We know the boring route, were going to do it the way
we learned, Noboa said. The only difference is theres going to be a coach.
And School of Rock sticks to its guns

when it comes to their teaching methods. Noboa doesnt go by the typical


and drab styles of classical teachings.
Rather than staring down a piece of
sheet music and keeping time, during
rehearsals he forces his students to listen to each other just as much as they
listen to themselves, much like a regular band would in a professional educational music setting.
He bangs his drumsticks together in
time, like a rock n roll Debbie Allen
from Fame, and sings along harmonies with the songs.
And occasionally hes stern. When
one bandmate played out of turn, he told
the student to unplug their guitar and sit
down.
Nobody comes in a from-birth
prodigy. I make you work, but I make it
go by quick and along the way the kid
actually learns some discipline, he
said.
Noboa also prides School of Rock on
the fact that where schools are failing
in the arts, they are succeeding.
We take music seriously, and not
that the schools dont, but theyre not
prioritizing it, he said. We know that
we have a fun service here, but we go
pretty deep. Our students tend to walk
out of here knowing how to play
music.
Which rings true for 16-year-old
Kevin Kelleher, who has had no classical training but feels that the experience hes gained at School of Rock
have helped him dramatically in applying for music schools across the country.
Ive been doing this rock n roll
thing for a while now, and now that Im
applying to colleges they dont care
about the rock n roll. All they want is
jazz, he said. Because I know it, its
opened up so many doors.
Its the same for Stephanie DArcy,
17, who was recently admitted to the
California Institute of the Arts, or
CalArts, for music. She recognized
that, without School of Rock, her musical tastes and experience would have
been vastly subpar to where shes at
now.
But where the students lack in classical training, they get in soul. Most of
these kids had never heard of bands like
KISS before they walked through the
doors on South B Street. Now, they each
sport a classic rock T-shirt during brand
practice: Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden,
Rush.
We did Queen almost a year ago and
at the name people were like whos
Queen? he laughed. Believe me I get
resistance. But then I play for them the
playlist and they just go whoa!
yeah. Thats Queen.
The students will be putting on a concert dedicated to The Who 4 p.m. to 6
p.m. April 18 and 19 at the school,
located at 711 S. B St. in downtown San
