The Chase bank property on

Broadway in Redwood City has
come up for sale as downtown has
reached its cap for new offices,
meaning a developer will have to
dream up other uses for the property to make a profit.
Colliers has listed the property
at 2300 Broadway for sale,
announcing that the bank is one of
the last key development sites in
the downtown core. Speculation is
that it will sell for upward of $35
million as it sits just steps from
the historic courthouse and Fox
Theatre in a revitalized downtown.
2300 Broadway benefits from
its central location in the citys

entertainment district. This area is
intended to be the focus of entertainment and major retail activity
and the most intense street life and
uses in this zone are intended to
support that goal, Colliers writes
about the property in a brochure.
Chase has a condition to sell,
however, that the developer house
the bank temporarily and then
allow it to be housed in the new
development. If Chase does not
move into the new building for
some reason, then it will request
that the developer does not lease
space to another bank.

Public shows support, concern for private school

Belmont planners consider Crystal Springs redevelopment proposal
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Belmont residents, property owners, parents and union representatives gathered

Tuesday for the citys first formal public
hearing on a revived proposal to create a
private middle school off the already crowded Ralston Avenue.
Crystal Springs Uplands School presented its plans for its 6.5-acre site on Davis
Drive to the Planning Commission Tuesday
night. The commission hosted the hearing
to gather public comment and will deliberate at another meeting April 5 before voting
on whether to recommend the City Council
approve the project that involves tearing
down a vacant business park.
Its the second time the private school,
which has a sixth- through 12th-grade
Hillsborough campus, has sought to open
up a site in Belmont. A formal City Council
flip-flopped in 2012 initially denying its
request then asking the school to reconsider. Eventually, CSUS took the plunge buying the site for nearly $12 million without
entitlements.
Support and concern at Tuesdays meeting
ranged from the benefits of providing parents with more educational options for children, to fears the already gridlocked Ralston
Avenue would worsen with another school.
The vast majority of the more than 25
speakers showed support for the project and
included parents with children at both
Belmont public schools and CSUS
Hillsborough campus, union representatives who noted construction would generate prevailing wage jobs, and residents
pleased by the fees the school would contribute despite its tax-exempt nonprofit status.
CSUS has offered the city a one-time $1
million payment; $250,000 in lieu of property taxes; $30,000 to School Force, the

Burlingame man dies

Palm Springs incident involved electrified pool
By Scott Morris
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
Frank Gehrke, chief of snow surveys for Californias Department of Water Resources, measures
the snowpack near Lake Tahoe.
Snowpack could help prolong

California water conservation
By Rich Pedroncelli and Scott Smith
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ECHO SUMMIT A nearly average

spring snowpack in the Sierra Nevada will
likely prolong tough water conservation
measures in drought-stricken California
although the restrictions could be loosened
in some areas after an El Nio storm system
drenched the northern half of the state this
winter, officials said Wednesday.
The message is still very strong:
Conservation measures are still going to be
important, Frank Gehrke, chief of the
California Cooperative Snow Survey
Program, said after he trudged through the
snow to manually measure the snowpack at
nearly 95 percent of normal.
A year ago, Gov. Jerry Brown stood on the
same spot then a dusty patch of ground
with no snow to announce that the dire
drought required residents to cut back water
use by 25 percent.
Californians are now under orders to use at
least 20 percent less water. To comply,
many have let lawns turn brown, flushed toilets less often and taken other measures
aimed at saving water.
Northern California has seen the most
rain and snow this winter, lifting its three
largest reservoirs to above-normal levels.
Southern California, meanwhile, saw relatively little precipitation leaving most of

its reservoirs low and threatening to further
deplete dwindling groundwater.
George Kostyrko of the State Water Board
said officials will consider the difference in
those regions while setting new conservation targets in the months ahead.
The snowpack in California now in its
fifth year of drought is typically at its
deepest on April 1 before the snow melts in
the warm months, rushing down streams and
rivers into lakes and reservoirs.
The melted snow provides roughly onethird of the water consumed by thirsty cities
and farms in the nations leading agricultural and most populous state.
San Joaquin Valley farmer Shawn
Stevenson said the nearly average snowpack provided a bit of encouragement after
five tough years forced him to cut back his
farming operation by nearly half.
Its certainly not the kind of news where
we can breathe a sigh of relief and think the
droughts over, Stevenson said. Its going
to take a number of years to recover.
Strong El Nio storms in early March led
some water districts to question whether a
drought emergency still existed and if residents should still be required to live under
conservation orders.
Analyst: Wage hike would cost

state taxpayers $3.6 billion
By Alison Noon
SACRAMENTO Raising the minimum

wage in California to the highest statewide
level in the nation would eventually cost
taxpayers an additional $3.6 billion a year
in higher pay for government employees,
legislative analysts determined.
The estimate was disclosed as an
Assembly committee gave initial approval
Wednesday to boosting the wage to $15 an
hour by 2022. The full state Assembly and
Senate could vote on the deal between
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown and labor
unions as early as Thursday.
The financial projection does not examine the broader economic impact that the
proposed wage hike would have on businesses in the state.
The University of California, Berkeley,
Center for Labor Research and Education
projected the ripple effect of a $15 minimum wage on higher earners could raise
pay for 5.6 million Californians by an
average of 24 percent.
Latinos would benefit most because they
hold a disproportionate number of lowwage jobs, the university researchers said.
At $10 an hour, the current minimum
wage in California is tied with
Massachusetts for the highest among
states.
A s s e m b l y
Ap p ro p ri at i o n s
Committee Chairwoman
Lorena Gonzalez, D-San
Diego, said minimum
wage has not kept up
with peoples needs.
Even with a full-time
job,
theyre relying on
Jerry Brown
food stamps and public
housing and free lunch programs,
Gonzalez said before the committee voted
12-7 to advance the measure. We are subsidizing all of these businesses who are
not providing enough for people to live
on.
First-year costs to the state would total
$19 million, when the minimum pay
bumps to $10.50 on Jan. 1, according to
the legislative analysis.
The proposal would then increase the
minimum wage to the next whole dollar
amount in each of the five years, with a
one-year delay allowed for businesses with
25 or fewer employees. The wage would
automatically rise to keep up with inflation
after 2023.
Contrary to other proposals to raise the
minimum wage above $10, the current plan
allows the governor to stall increases in
times of economic or budgetary downturn.
A Burlingame tech executive died in Palm

Springs on Sunday when he jumped into an
electrified swimming pool to save his oldest
daughter, who remains in critical condition.
The backyard swimming pool at a residence in the 2300 block of Yosemite Drive
was apparently electrified by faulty wiring at
about 4 p.m. Sunday, according to Palm
Springs police.
Six people were in the pool when Jim
Tramel, 43, jumped in to save his 9-year-old
daughter when he noticed her turning blue.
But he was also shocked and they both needed to be pulled from the pool, police said.
When police and firefighters arrived, other
people at the home were performing CPR on
Tramel and his daughter. Tramel, his daughter
and the five other people who were in the
pool were all taken to hospitals.
The other five people who were in the pool
including a 6-year-old boy and girl, an 8year-old girl, a 10-year-old girl and a 45-yearold woman were not as close as Tramel and
his daughter to the faulty

wiring and were not seriously injured, police said.
Tramel was pronounced
dead at Desert Regional
Medical Center at 4:42
p.m., according to the
Riverside County coroners office. His daughter
remains in intensive care

Wednesday morning.
Please help us raise money to be used (or

WASHINGTON President Barack

Obama commuted the prison sentences of
61 drug offenders on Wednesday including
more than a third serving life sentences,
working to give new energy to calls for
overhauling the U.S. criminal justice system.
All of the inmates are serving time for
drug possession, intent to sell or related
crimes. Most are nonviolent offenders,
although a few were also charged with
firearms violations. Obamas commutation shortens their sentences, with most
of the inmates set to be released on July
28.
Obama, in a letter to the inmates receiving commutations, said the presidential
power to grand commutations and pardons
embodies the basic belief in our democracy
that people deserve a second chance.
One of the inmates, Jesse Webster of
Chicago, is serving a life term for intent to
sell cocaine and filing false tax returns.
Another, Byron McDade of Bowie,
here, said 15-year resident Jenny Bilsey,
referring to CSUS proposed contributions.
No other organization is going to contribute $750,000 to fix Ralstons traffic
problems. And theyre our traffic problems.
Improving Ralston Avenue

After conducting the Ralston Avenue
Corridor Study that outlined improvements
for all modes of transportation, the city is
now seeking money to fund projects such as
widening sidewalks and installing new traffic signals.
Although CSUS would offer immediate
funding for a new traffic signal, some contend traffic on Ralston Avenue has spilled
onto other streets such as Davis Drive and
adding any new students would be problematic.
A small cul-de-sac off a horrible congested main road is not the right place for
a school, said Michelle Ladcani, a 46year Belmont resident who works in a

a few also faced firearms charges. Nabar

received an additional charge for having a
gun on hand during a drug trafficking crime.
The latest tranche of commutations
brings to 248 the total number of inmates
whose sentences Obama has commuted

commutations and the rarer use of pardons
are expected to increase as the end of

Trump backtracks on
question of punishing
women for abortion
GOP silent as Trump
takes on abortion
By Steve Peoples and Scott Bauer
MADISON,
Wis.
Frustrated
Republicans grappled with new fears about
Donald Trumps impact on their party
Wednesday, as the billionaire businessmans campaign rivals targeted his punitive plan for fighting abortion and
extraordinary defense of his campaign
manager who police say assaulted a female
reporter.
Concern rippled through Republican circles nationwide, yet few dared criticize the
GOP front-runner directly when pressed,
leery of confronting the man who may
well lead their election ticket in
November.
Their silence underscored the deep worries plaguing the partys leaders particularly its most prominent women who
are growing increasingly concerned that a
Trump presidential nomination could not
only cost the 2016 election but also tarnish the party brand for a generation of
women and young people.
A nominee who cannot speak to women
cannot win, said New Hampshire party
chairwoman Jennifer Horn, though declining to rebuke Trump by name.
Trump added to his challenge when
asked to explain his prescription to fight
abortion, a subject that remains highly
controversial decades after the Supreme
Court legalized it.
He told MSNBC during the taping of a
town hall-style event in Wisconsin that
abortions should be banned and, if they
are, women who get them should receive
some form of punishment. That sparked
an immediate backlash from both sides of
the debate, and Trumps campaign quickly
backtracked, releasing a statement that
sought to take back his words.

GREEN BAY, Wis. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said

Wednesday that women who get an abortion
should receive some form of punishment if
it is ever outlawed, drawing swift condemnation from activists on both sides of the divisive social issue.
Within hours, Trumps campaign sought to
take back his comments in two separate
statements, ultimately saying the billionaire businessman believes abortion
providers and not their patients should
be the ones punished.
My position has not changed, Trump
argued in both statements released by his
campaign. Like Ronald Reagan, I am prolife with exceptions.
Trumps original remarks about abortion
came in a heated exchange with MSNBC host
Chris Matthews at the Wednesday afternoon
taping of a town hall in Green Bay,
Wisconsin, scheduled to air that night.
Matthews asked Trump whether he believes
abortion should be outlawed.
After an extended back-and-forth, Trump
said, you have to ban abortion and there
has to be some form of punishment for
women who violate such a restriction.
Pressed by Matthews on the nature of that
punishment, Trump responded, I havent
determined what the punishment should be.
Trump also suggested that should abortion
ever be barred, women could continue to
receive abortions at illegal places.
You know youll go back to a position
like where they had where people perhaps
will go to illegal places, he said.
Trumps remarks were assailed by abortion-rights supporters, but they also unsettled anti-abortion activists who said the
comments clash with efforts to show empathy with women contemplating whether to
have the procedure.
We have never advocated, in any context,
for the punishment of women who undergo
abortion, Marjorie Dannenfelser, president
of the national anti-abortion group Susan B.

World leaders are

tackling threat of
nuclear terrorism
By Josh Lederman
WASHINGTON Still reeling

from attacks in Brussels and Paris,
world leaders are wrestling this
week with the chilling prospect of
the Islamic State group or other
extremists unleashing a nuclear
attack on a major Western city.
Preventing terrorists from
obtaining nuclear materials is the
central focus as President Barack
Obama hosts leaders from roughly
50 countries for a nuclear security
summit
starting
Thursday.
Despite three previous summits
and six years of Obamas prodding, security officials warn that
the ingredients for a nuclear
device or a dirty bomb are
alarmingly insecure.
We know that terrorist organizations have the desire to get
access to these raw materials and
to have a nuclear device, said Ben
Rhodes, Obamas deputy national
security adviser. Still, the White
House said there was no indication
of an imminent plot.
Decades after the Cold War, the
threat of a nuclear war between
superpowers has given way to
growing concerns about non-state
actors, including Islamic State and
al-Qaida offshoots operating in
North Africa and in Yemen and
Saudi Arabia. Although the U.S.
and its allies still worry about
North Korea, Obama believes the
threat posed by Iran has subsided
due to the nuclear deal, leaving
extremist groups among the likeliest perpetrators.
The havoc such an attack could
wreak in an urban area like New
York or London is concerning
enough that leaders scheduled a
special session on the threat during the two-day summit. U.S. officials said the leaders would discuss
a hypothetical scenario about a
chain of events that could lead to
nuclear terrorism.
Those concerns have taken on
heightened significant following
the March 22 attacks at a Brussels
airport and subway station. Last

program.
Yet other key players will be

after last weeks attacks on the

THE TRUTH ABOUT "DISCOUNT" DENTAL IMPLANTS!
The old adage If it's too good to be true, it probably is applies to dentistry
too. When looking for tooth replacement options, do not fall victim to misleading marketing tactics. Do your research, ask the right questions, and know
what you are getting. Its a lifetime investment and shouldnt be taken lightly.
If you are researching dental implants you have seen the ads for $1895 complete
or $4000 OFF! Great deal right, NOT SO FAST chances are you are getting exactly
what you paid for, and not what an educated consumer would want! And it's not
being done by an Implant specialist ( there is no such designation sanctioned by
the dental board in California)!
Such special fees do not correlate with cost of highly trained professionals
and materials for a level of precision and quality that implant supported
crowns require. Here is the typical range costs to replace a single missing tooth:
Implant placement related costs to the dentist:
Dental Implant (reputable companies with well researched implants): $400 to $450
Healing abutment (a temporary extension that sits on the implant): $40 to $50
Surgical guide (a stent guiding accurate implant placement): $50 to $150
Drills (series of drills in various diameters necessary to prepare the bone for
implant placement): $50-$100.
Crown related costs to the dentist:
Impression post, Implant analog, Permanent abutment, abutment screw, Permanent Crown (made by a high quality USA lab ,Temporary Abutment, custom
Temporary Crown.
As you can see, these costs to the dentist amount to $1,360 - $1,950 just for the
cost of HIGH QUALITY materials. This does not include the impression
materials, accessory materials, advertising multiple appointments, personnel and
administrative costs, and a reasonable return to the dentist.
So just how does the discount implant center do it? Here is the catch: They
employ common "cutting corner" strategies to offer a low fee and still make
profit on this procedure.
Bottom line, don't look for the lowest price, but best long-term value!
J. J. Russo
Brussels in information garnered

from the Internet, said an official
linked to the investigation.
The official, who asked not to
be identified because the investigation is ongoing, said that at
the moment there were absolutely no specific indications that
Michel was under threat from the
attackers.
The report was first published
by De Tijd and LEcho newspapers.

all their tyrants and pagans; a

Last five hostages on hijacked Egypt plane recall fear

By Menalaos Hadjicostis and Sam Magdy
LARNACA, Cyprus First the hijacker said the women

could leave. All the children, too. Then the man in the suicide vest agreed that all Egyptians and others from Muslim
backgrounds would be allowed to escape from the plane.
That left five Western men at least one of whom
thought they were about to die.
We looked each other in the eyes and we said: Here we
are. Were at the end of the line. Its over, recalled the
Italian in the group, Andrea Banchetti, the day after an
Egyptian man took control of a short EgyptAir flight to
Cairo by donning a fake explosives belt and diverting it
across the Mediterranean to Cyprus.
Seif Eddin Mustafa, 59, was arrested by Cypriot police
Tuesday without physically harming a soul. The final five
from Britain, Italy and the Netherlands were ultimately
released just like the others. A day later, passengers openly
second-guessed themselves over whether they had been
right to feel terrified, skeptical or somewhere in between.
I was going out of my mind, said Banchetti, a 47-yearold mechanic from the Italian city of Genoa, recalling those
confused, nerve-racking final minutes as the plane emptied
with only the five men kept on board. They had been singled out after the hijacker confiscated their European passports.
Not all expressed such open fears. The Dutchman on
board, 56-year-old businessman Huub Helthuis, said when
he talked to Mustafa once the plane had landed, the
Egyptian replied in English: Dont worry, nothing will
happen. He eyed Mustafas vest of mysterious pockets and
tangled wires and wondered whether they were real.
The bombs were fake, he recalled Wednesday in a telephone interview from Amsterdam, but you couldnt know
that.
While the plane was still airborne, flight attendants and
the pilots said they tried to speak informally to Mustafa,
offering him drinks and making small talk. The pilot, Amr
Al-Gammal, said the hijacker even let him choose whether
to land in Turkey, Greece or the nearest choice, Cyprus.
The atmosphere grew sufficiently informal and relaxed
that one of the English passengers, 26-year-old health and
safety inspector Ben Innes, posed for a wide-grinning
photo alongside the self-billed bomber.
Im not sure why I did it. I just threw caution to the wind
while trying to stay cheerful in the face of adversity. I figured if his bomb was real Id nothing to lose anyway, so
took a chance to get a closer look at it, Innes was quoted as
telling The Sun newspaper in London.
I got one of the cabin crew to translate for me and asked
him if I could do a selfie with him. He just shrugged OK, so
I stood by him and smiled for the camera while a stewardess
did the snap, Innes was quoted as saying.
Paris prosecutor: Terror suspect

charged with multiple offenses
By Sylvie Corbet and Thomas Adamson
PARIS Paris authorities filed preliminary terrorism

charges Wednesday against a 34-year-old Frenchman for
allegedly plotting an imminent attack and operating an
explosives arsenal of what prosecutors called unprecedented scale.
Paris Prosecutor Francois Molins said Wednesday that the
suspect, Reda Kriket, is accused of participating in a terrorist group with plans for at least one attack, possessing and
transporting arms and explosives, and holding fake documents, among other charges. Kriket will stay in custody
while magistrates continue investigating the case and determine whether to send him to trial.
Kriket is believed to have traveled to Syria in 2014 and
2015 and made several trips between France and Belgium
and the Netherlands, Molins said.
At least three other people are in custody in the case in
Belgium and the Netherlands.
Molins did not say whether Krikets purported plot was
linked to the Islamic State network behind last weeks
attacks in Brussels and last Novembers attacks in Paris.
The prosecutor said no target for Krikets thwarted attack
has been identified, and Kriket has given limited explanation to investigators in his six days in detention.
Two Algerians believed linked to Krikets alleged plot are
being held in Brussels. The Belgian federal prosecutors
office said Wednesday that the men, identified as
Abderrahmane A. and Rabah M., will face a hearing April 7.
Another Frenchman linked to Kriket, Anis Bari, is being
held in the Dutch city of Rotterdam, Molins said. Bari is
resisting extradition to France.
Among things found when police searched Krikets apartment in the Paris suburb of Argenteuil on Thursday were 500
grams of the explosive TATP, 1.3 kilograms of industrial
explosives, several bottles of oxygenated water and acetone, material to make detonators, five automatic rifles,
seven cell phones, stolen passports and two computers
showing links with jihadi groups, Molins said.

Health insurers gained a sicker, more
expensive patient population after the
Affordable Care Act expanded coverage in
2014, according to an early look at medical
claims from the Blue Cross Blue Shield
Association, which represents the most
common brand of insurance.
Newer customers had higher rates of diabetes, depression and high blood pressure,
among other conditions, the association
said in a report released Wednesday. They
also visited the emergency room much more
frequently than people who had private,
individual coverage before the law expanded.
Researchers caution against drawing
broad conclusions about the newly insured
based on what amounts to a limited look at
a still-evolving health care market.
But the numbers show how gaining coverage is only part of a long journey toward

health and slowing cost growth.

WASHINGTON The FBIs announcement that it mysteriously hacked into an

iPhone is a public setback for Apple Inc., as
consumers learned that they cant keep the
government out of even an encrypted device
that U.S. officials had claimed was impossible to crack. Apple, meanwhile, remains in
the dark about how to restore the security of
its flagship product.
The government said it was able to break
into an iPhone used by a gunman in a mass
shooting in California, but it didnt say
how. That puzzled Apple software engineers
and outside experts about how the FBI
broke the digital locks on the phone without Apples help. It also complicated
Apples job repairing flaws that jeopardize
its software.
The Justice Departments announcement
that it was dropping a legal fight to compel
Apple to help it access the phone also took
away any obvious legal avenues Apple
might have used to learn how the FBI did it.
Magistrate Judge Sheri Pym on Tuesday
vacated her Feb. 16 order, which compelled
Apple to assist the FBI in hacking their
phone.
The Justice Department declined through a
spokeswoman to comment Tuesday.

A few clues have emerged. A senior law
enforcement official told the Associated
Press that the FBI managed to defeat an
Apple security feature that threatened to
delete the phones contents if the FBI failed
to enter the correct passcode combination
after 10 tries. That allowed the government
to repeatedly and continuously test passcodes in whats known as a brute-force
attack until the right code is entered and the
phone is unlocked.
It wasnt clear how the FBI dealt with a
related Apple security feature that introduces
increasing time delays between guesses.
The official spoke on condition of
anonymity because this person was not
authorized to discuss the technique publicly.
FBI Director James Comey has said with
those features removed, the FBI could break
into the phone in 26 minutes.
The FBI hacked into the iPhone used by
gunman Syed Farook, who died with his wife
in a gun battle with police after they killed
14 people in December in San Bernardino.
The iPhone, issued to Farook by his
employer, the county health department,
was found in a vehicle the day after the
shooting.
The FBI is reviewing information from
the iPhone, and it is unclear whether anything useful can be found.
Hospital cyberattack shows

health care vulnerabilities
By Tom Murphy
A cyberattack that paralyzed the hospital

chain MedStar this week is serving as a
fresh reminder of vulnerabilities that exist
in systems that protect sensitive patient
information.
That attack came a month after a Los
Angeles hospital paid hackers $17,000 to
regain control of its computer system and
more than a year after intruders broke into
a database containing the records of nearly
80 million people maintained by the
health insurer Anthem.
In Anthems case, only a single password stood between hackers with a stolen
employee ID and a chance to plunder the
Blue Cross-Blue Shield carriers database,
according to a federal lawsuit filed by customers over the breach.
Cyber criminals also have staged highprofile attacks in recent years against the
federal government, retail chains and the
adultery website Ashley Madison, among
many other targets. But security experts
say health care companies make especially
inviting targets for a number of reasons.
The information they protect is more
valuable on the black market than a credit
card number stored by a retailer. Health
care cybersecurity also can lag behind
measures taken in other sectors like banking.
This can stem in part from a business
emphasis on tight budgets and convenience over security. Health care companies
also have to deal with an additional
headache: Multiple entry points into a
system, with security quality varying
among clinics, labs, hospitals that may
have access.

Warriors take Jazz to overtime to earn win No. 68

By Kareem Copeland
SALT LAKE CITY The Warriors countdown to become the winningest team in NBA
history is down to five.
Stephen Curry scored 31 points, including
six straight in overtime, and Golden State
continued its historic run with a 103-96 victory over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night.
The Warriors (68-7) surpassed last seasons
victory total and must win five of their final
seven games to break the 1995-96 Chicago
Bulls record of 72-10.
They are amazing. Nothing went our way
really for most of the night, Warriors coach
Steve Kerr said. They kept fighting. We
always compete, that is the great thing about
this team. That is why we have this record
and our guys compete every night.
I love our competitive spirit. No matter
what our record ends up, it almost doesnt
matter. It is just an incredible display of competition and fight night after night.
Klay Thompson hit the tying 3-pointer
with 15 seconds remaining in regulation
after an offensive rebound and kick-out from
Shaun Livingston after Thompson missed
the previous attempt.

But when she took

Now, she had honed the
ability to play with her

which meant she had
to work on moves
that enabled her to get

that the wins will take care of themselves.
The Jazz (37-38) fell into a tie with the
Houston Rockets for the No. 7 slot in the
Western Conference playoff race.
Curry had seven rebounds and four assists,
while Thompson finished with 18 points.
Hayward led the Jazz with 21 points and
Rodney Hood added 20. Rudy Gobert finished
with 11 points and 18 rebounds.
Were pretty frustrated right now, but
weve got seven more games, Hood said. If
we would have won, it was one win. This is
one loss. Weve got seven more that we need

The biggest thing we cant do is feel
deflated and (have) it carry over to the next
game against Minnesota.
The Jazz shot just 34.8 percent in the first
half, but only trailed 42-40 at the break. The
Warriors managed just 16 points in the second quarter, a season low for that period.

Student managers are Dbacks beat As 12-9

staging own Final Four
By Rick Eymer
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Kansas and

Michigan State are participating in the Final
Four after all, albeit on a much smaller scale
than expected.
While the Jayhawks and Spartans didnt
make it to Houston after getting eliminated
from the NCAA Tournament, student managers of those programs will be there playing in their own tournament along with Iowa
State and Tennessee.
We were hoping wed be with the main
team for the main event, Iowa State student
manager Tyler Schaul said, but it will certainly be a cool kind of consolation prize.
The student managers version of the Final
Four may be the biggest March Madness
Cinderella story of them all.
For several years, student managers took a
break from their grueling schedules to stage
pickup games against one another. For
instance, if Tennessee and Vanderbilt were
scheduled to play on a Saturday afternoon,
student managers for the schools would play
each other the night beforehand, either in
the main arena or at a practice facility.
This year, the games got a bit more serious.
The teams had their own power rankings,
with celebrity followers, supporters and
fundraisers thanks in large part to the
efforts of Michigan State assistant athletic
director Kevin Pauga.
Pauga started using a mathematical formula the KPI which he created in 2003 to
rank NCAA mens basketball teams during
his years as a student manager at Michigan
State, to rate the managers teams for each
program. He put his rankings up on a Web
site (www.KPISports.net).
We kind of wanted to add some fun to it,
Pauga said.
Word spread about Paugas system. Pauga
said more than 130 schools from 25 conferences played a total of 275 games this season, trying to move up his rankings.
Wed thought it was a joke, that no one
really did that, no one sat down and took the
time, Tennessee senior Parker Ratcliff said.
But we checked it and it was legit. Then we
just decided to try to keep going up from
where we started in the rankings.
The next step was to have the managers
own version of a postseason tournament.
Pauga set up a bracket with help from
Michigan State trainers Andrew Novak and
Everyone loves an underdog

story and the managers are
just the people who do the
laundry. People like to rally
around things, good causes. ... Its
cool to see the managers have
an opportunity to play.
Tim Skoch, Kansas manager
Ian May.
Logistical restraints prevented most
schools from actually playing their assigned
games in the tournament the vast majority of
the time. When a game couldnt be played, a
teams ranking in Paugas system and a fan
vote would determine who advanced.
Pauga said more than 150,000 votes were
cast over the course of the tournament.
Kansas manager Tim Skoch believes he
knows why these games have started to catch
on with the general public.
Everyone loves an underdog story and
the managers are just the people who do the
laundry, Skoch said. People like to rally
around things, good causes. ... Its cool to
see the managers have an opportunity to
play.
The semifinals and championship game
will take place Friday at the George R. Brown
Convention Center in Houston, where the
NCAA Fan Fest is taking place. Pauga has set
up a GoFundMe page that has raised over
$1,800 for travel costs.
As for the quality of the basketball, well,
its probably best described as running the
gamut from so-so to pretty good.
Most of the managers at the Final Four at
least played in high school, but Tennessees
team might be an indicator of the talent. The
Vols squad includes 5-foot-6 I.J. Poole as
well as Drazen Zlovaric, a 6-9 graduate manager who played collegiately at Georgia and
Chattanooga and had a three-year professional career overseas.
But they all figured their playing days were
behind them after becoming managers and
performing such grunt work as monitoring
video and setting up practice drills.
Now theyre stepping out of the shadows
of laundry rooms at college basketballs
biggest event.
Said Poole, I would have never thought Id
be going to the Final Four to play.
MESA, Ariz. Phil Gosselin had three

hits including a triple and 5 RBIs,
Wellington Castillo homered and the
Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Oakland
Athletics 12-9 on Wednesday.
Shelby Miller pitched four innings in his
final spring appearance, giving up seven
runs on seven hits. He walked three and
struck out four. Tuffy Gosewisch and
Yasmani Tomas also drove in runs for
Arizona.
As starter Rich Hill had his best outing of
the spring, allowing a pair of runs on two
hits over 4 1/3 innings. He walked three and
struck out two.
Every As position players had one at-bat
and left the game for an early flight to
Oakland.
Top prospects Matt Chapman and Chad
Pinder each hit a home run for the As. Chris
Coghlan drove in a pair of runs and Yonder
Alfonso drove in one.
Arizonas Jean Segura singled, his 30th
hit of the spring, to improve to .517.
Castillo has 12 RBIs in his last seven
games.
Miller allowed as many runs (7) as he did
in his first four outings, but no one was

making a big issue of it.
The biggest thing is to get out healthy
and keep your pitch count up,
Diamondbacks reliever Brad Ziegler said
after pitching a scoreless inning. You can
see the talent and you know hell be ready
April 4.
Ziegler said the revamped starting rotation will help ease the burden on the
bullpen and give Arizona a chance every
time out.
We have an offense thats great at creating runs, he said. The bottom line is we
still have to go out and execute and once we
get the lead, it will be up to us to put up
zeroes.
Hill got a big boost from a solid outing,
his last before starting April 5 in Oakland
against the Chicago White Sox.
It was just being ultra-aggressive, Hill
said. That was the biggest thing. I got on a
roll to start and as the game went on, we
were picking up the pace.
Hill gave up 13 runs in three previous
starts before making two starts in minor
league camp.
It was like night and day, he said of control issues. I got into an attack mode in the
bullpen and carried that into the game.
Everything came out crisp and clean.
Domestic abuse case against

Colorados Reyes is dropped
HONOLULU Maui prosecutors are moving to dismiss a domestic abuse charge

against suspended Colorado Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes because his wife isnt cooperating.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Kerry Glen
said she expects to file documents Wednesday
to drop the case. Reyes wife wont talk to
prosecutors or return to Maui, she said.
The complaining witness, Mr. Reyes
wife, is what we call an uncooperative witness, Glen said. At this point, I have no
other avenue for prosecution.
Reyes was scheduled to go to trial April 4.
He pleaded not guilty to abusing a family or
household member. David Sereno, his Maui
defense attorney, couldnt immediately be
reached for comment.
The former New York Mets shortstop was
arrested Oct. 31 at the Wailea Four Seasons
Resort. According to a recording of a 911 call
released by police, a hotel security guard

reported the woman had injuries to her leg and
scratches on her neck.
Reyes was released after posting $1,000
bail and was ordered to stay away from his
wife for three days.
Glen will ask for the case to be dropped
without prejudice, meaning shell have about
two years from the date of the alleged offense
to refile charges if Reyes wife eventually
cooperates.
For misdemeanor offenses, we cannot
force an uncooperative witness to come
back, Glen said.
Reyes was placed on paid leave under Major
League Baseballs new domestic violence policy pending completion of the criminal proceedings.
The MLB and the players association
agreed to the policy in August following a
series of high-profile domestic violence cases
involving NFL players. Reyes was the first
player affected by it.

season in which Aguilera did

THE DAILY JOURNAL
five times she scored three or more and three

four-goal games.
But because of her competitive nature,
Navarrete believes Aguilera was frustrated she
didnt have more.
In her mind, (39 goals) was probably not
enough. If she had a year (of high school eligibility remaining), she would probably go
for 50, Navarrete said. The fascinating stat
is, in 23 games she scored the game-winning
goal 18 times. Wed win games 4-nothing,
but she would have that first goal.
I thought it would be a little harder (for her
to score this year). People knew about her,
knew what she was capable of doing. But
they werent able to stop it. It just went on
and on and on.
Actually, Navarrete should not have been

too surprised with Aguileras goal-scoring
production this season. She has done it her
entire high school career. She missed roughly
half the season her freshman year with injury
but, in 13 games, Aguilera scored 15 goals. It
would be the only time she missed significant
time with injury as she played in every game
her final three seasons with the Wildcats. She
scored 23 goals her sophomore year and added
28 as junior to put her within shouting distance of the 100-goal career mark. She tied her
single-season, goal-scoring mark of 28 with
three games remaining in the regular season
and scored 11 more times through the end of
PAL play and the CCS playoffs to give her
105 goals for her high school career.
When I was a freshman, I was really scared
playing against 18-year-olds, Aguilera said.
When youre a senior, you know who you are
playing against. When you can play against
these teams (several times during your high
school career), you figure out the best ways to
score against them.
Said Navarrete: I didnt realize how many
goals she had. As a freshman, she missed,
like, the first 10 games because of injury.
Then she went bananas after that.

as boring. In October 2012, he called for
lowering rims for womens basketball.
But now with Auriemma needing two wins
to become the first Division I womens
coach to capture four straight national
titles, there are loud discussions about the
impact on the sport of UConns continued
dominance.
Critics contend the 73-game winning
streak, the record-breaking 22-game NCAA
Tournament winning streak, and the continual blowouts have turned off casual fans
because theres little drama when the
Huskies step on the court. Inside the sport,
the dynasty is viewed as more a challenge
than a problem.
I am one of these people thats not buy-
ing into this whole UConn doing what

theyre doing is bad for the game,
Washington coach Mike Neighbors said.
Its been great for the game. Its raised
everybodys level up to where we have what
we have this year: three new people in the
Final Four because weve all been able to
use their success as a little part of the formula to get there.
In many ways, this weekend could be a
pivotal moment for womens basketball.
Oregon State, Syracuse and Washington
have broken up the usual championship
weekend monopoly, marking the first time
since 1994 that three newcomers will play
in the same Final Four.
Two-time national player of the year
Breanna Stewart and her senior teammates

can become the first players in Division I
history men or women to win four
national championships.
Syracuses Quentin Hillsman will become
the first black male to coach a Final Four
team since Winthrop McGriff of Cheyney in
1984.
Its significant, and you want to downplay it, but you kind of cant because it is
what it is, Hillsman said. Its a big
responsibility and its an honor and its
really humbling.
And in the most compelling story line
this weekend, coach Scott Rueck has taken
Oregon State from open tryouts to the
national semifinals in six years.

Three-time world champ Patrick Chan of

knew I could be betAguilera
ter. This year was
no different than my freshman year,
Aguilera said. College is going to be
an even bigger jump. There may still
be room for improvement.
The Wildcats will be the beneficiary
of Aguileras work ethic. Arizona got
on Aguilera early, becoming one of the
first schools to offer her a scholarship.
She orally committed to the Wildcats
following her sophomore year and has
not wavered from it.
I still get emails for [showcase
events], Aguilera said. A lot of stress
was relieved (by ending the recruiting
process early). A very competitive,
high-level college wants me to play
for their school and thats where I

wanted to be. No, I never wavered.
She may be going to the Wildcats at
the right time. They had one of their
best seasons in recent history, advancing to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament. Aguilera doesnt expect to
come in and play right away. But she
knows if she puts in the work, the
Arizona coaching staff will have a hard
time keeping her off the field.
She knows that she will have to
work on being more physical and
strong on the ball. That just means
more work; and hard work has gotten
Aguilera to where she is and shes not
about to stop now.
I know that Im capable of working
hard enough to play (as a college freshman), Aguilera said.
Said Navarrete: Once she committed
(to Arizona), she said, I have to get
better in every category. She never
stopped progressing and working
hard, which could derail a lot of players.
She realizes her biggest challenges
are ahead of her.

Pruning: Get the right cut for the growth you want
By Lee Reich
In the short space that follows, I think I

can guide you on how to prune any plant,
from a midget marigold to a mighty oak.
Thats because all plants respond similarly to pruning. Once you understand that
response and are clear on your goals, you
can just go ahead and cut.
First, lets get one thing straight:
Pruning stunts plants, which may in itself
be a reason to prune.
Other reasons might be:
In a younger plant, pruning can direct
growth so the plant can develop strong,
well-placed limbs that bathe in light and
air. That also can speed drying and thus
limit the threat of disease.
An older plant might need pruning to
invigorate it, do away with decrepit stems
and keep healthy stems bathed in light and
air.
So pruning is often needed whether or
not size control is desired. If size control
is not your goal, minimize pruning to
what is absolutely necessary so that your

plant fills its allotted space as soon as
possible.
PINCHING IS PRUNING
While it stunts overall plant growth,
pruning some kinds can stimulate
growth right where you cut. Picture a
young shoot of a tomato plant or maple
tree. Unpruned, such a stem will continue
to grow from its tip, and side branches
may or may not grow out further down the
stem.
The lightest pruning would be to use
your thumbnail and forefinger to pinch out
the soft, growing end of the shoot. This
pinch not only causes growth to falter
briefly, but also causes dormant, lateral
buds farther down the stem to be awakened
into growth.
Pinching, then, is useful for slowing
stem growth to direct the energies of a
tomato plant in late summer to ripening
fruits, for example and to encourage
See PRUNING, Page 18
In a younger plant, pruning can direct growth so the plant can develop strong, well-placed limbs
that bathe in light and air.

HOTEL
with local unions representing hotel workers.
Those efforts proved in vain though, as
councilmembers expressed an overwhelming desire to bring to fruition a project initially promised to voters in 2001, when
allowable development heights at the site
were raised.
Ive worked very, very hard on this, and
I think it is an excellent deal for San
Bruno, said Mayor Jim Ruane. Im looking forward to it.
Under the councils approval, OTO
Development will purchase the site and
erect a Marriott hotel, which includes a
community gathering space and two levels
of underground parking.
The developer is required to begin construction three months after escrow closes,
and open the facility within the following
32 months, according to a city report.
Corry Oakes, CEO and founder of OTO
Development, said his company plans to
develop a project unlike any other that cur-
PRUNING
branching, as on a potted avocado tree
whose single, lanky stem looks ungainly.
HEADING FOR BRANCHES

You also could prune a stem more drastically, with pruning shears. This type of
cut is called a heading cut, and plant
response depends on how drastically you
cut back a stem.
If you cut a young stem back by a third,
buds that might have stayed dormant on
its remaining part will now be prompted

rently exists in San Bruno.

This is the perfect spot for a hotel, he
said. It will be a beautiful building, and a
beautiful addition to your community.
The city is expected to make roughly
$2.5 million in profit from selling the
piece of land purchased in 2012, as well as
an additional $1 million in transient occupancy tax revenue annually.
Officials said constructing a hotel on the
site will provide a substantial, ongoing
benefit to the city, and bring to fruition a
vision for an attractive development in the
area near the intersection of Intersection
380 and El Camino Real, which is also surrounded by the Village at the Crossing
apartment project and Jacks Restaurant.
This is the last piece of the puzzle, said
Councilman Ken Ibarra, of developing a
keystone project at the gateway of San
Bruno.
Not everyone shared such enthusiasm
though, as many San Bruno residents criticized the perceived unwillingness of OTO
Development to allow workers at the future
hotel to unionize.
Leif Paulsen, a union supporter, said the
calls of organized labor advocates have
fallen on deaf ears.
Im severely disappointed about how
well our concerns have been received, he

said. Im here to demand a better deal, and
that better deal is the jobs.
Some called for officials to shoot down
the deal with OTO Development, and select
another builder, one more willing to negotiate with labor unions.
Between 30 and 40 full-time jobs are
expected to be created at the hotel, according to a city report.
Representatives from OTO Development
have refused to meet with members of Unite
Here Local 2, a hotel and restaurant workers
union, to discuss whether organized labor
would be hired at the Crossing Hotel.
Oakes indicated his companys reluctance
to employ unionized labor may continue,
as OTO Development prides itself on the
relationships it builds directly with its
employees.
We dont want someone between us and
our team members, he said. We are like a
family. We dont want someone else acting
as a mediator.
Councilmembers said they had no power
to obligate the developer and labor union
to negotiate, but some encouraged the two
parties to meet and establish a relationship.
Additional concerns mired the project as
well, as resident Ryan Mrsny said he felt

officials agreed to sell the land for less than
market rate, and encouraged councilmembers to have the property appraised again
with the intention of negotiating a better
deal.
Selling our land so cheaply to a billiondollar company in a booming economy is a
joke, he said. Our land is valuable and
you are giving it away at a discounted rate.
Medina said he too was concerned regarding the appraisal, and claimed it did not
include two recent acquisitions of similar
properties along the Peninsula, which
could drive up the assessed value of the
Crossing Hotel property.
He suggested the council postpone making a decision on the hotel project, while
another appraisal is conducted, which
would grant more time for collaboration
between representatives from the labor
union and OTO Development.
Ultimately though, Medinas proposal
fell flat, as other councilmembers
expressed a sense of urgency to make the
vision of the hotel a reality.
We have made a commitment to do what
is best for this community, said Ibarra.
This will undoubtedly be the best project
we will probably develop in my lifetime.
to grow, and they will do so more enthusiastically than if the stem had just been
pinched. Shorten that same stem by twothirds, and the resulting new growth will
be even more vigorous, but fewer buds
will be awakened.
The more vigorous a stem is before it is
headed back, the more enthusiastic its
response to such pruning. As a general
rule, the more vertical the stems orientation, the greater its inherent vigor. And
heading cuts into 1-year-old wood elicit
more enthusiastic responses than do cuts
into older wood.
Too many gardeners irreverently hack
back their plants in an effort to get rid of
unwanted growth, and then bemoan the
dense and vigorous regrowth from these
heading cuts.
Nonetheless, in the right situation, a

heading cut is a useful pruning technique.
There are situations when vigorous, new
growth is needed: to make a strong trunk
on a young tree; to create new, bearing
wood, if needed, for fruits or flowers; to
create a decorative effect; to invigorate a

Use thinning cuts when you want to

How to convert a spare room into a dream closet

By Melissa Rayworth
Longing for a bigger closet?

Remember that rooms in your home dont
have to be used the way they were originally intended. Get creative and convert a
small room into the ultimate walk-in closet, says Egypt Sherrod, host of HGTVs
Flipping Virgins and Property
Virgins.
Homes built before the 80s just didnt
have the room size that todays buyers have
become used to, or the walk-in closets
weve been trained to expect, she says.
Giving up a room can be a big decision.
The trick is doing it on a minimal budget
and retaining the flexibility to use the
room differently in the future, says Kevin
OConnor, host of PBS This Old House.
CHOOSING THE SPACE

Ideally, use the bedroom closest to the
master bedroom, says Sherrod: That way
you have the option of opening up the wall
to go directly in.
Creating a doorway in a wall is relatively
minor construction and can easily be
undone, experts say.
DIY CREATIVITY
The simplest way to convert a small
room is by lining the walls with clothing
racks on wheels and with free-standing wire
shelving units. You can customize the
space by adding colorful bins and baskets.
Or you can create shelving that expresses
your personal style. For a recent This Old
House episode, OConnor worked with a
homeowner to build closet storage out of
black metal pipes with wooden shelves.
The industrial look brought a dose of style
to the space, and the unit was sturdy.
The few places they anchor to the wall
give you nice rigidity, OConnor says, but
the shelves also are easily removable.
Another DIY project: To fill the center of
a room that Sherrod converted to a closet,
she brought in two large bureaus of the
same height and arranged them back-toback. She had a sheet of granite cut to cover
the tops, creating a work island that combines storage and a flat surface for arranging accessories or stacking folded laundry.
Interior designer Mikel Welch, previously a competitor on HGTV Design Stars,
says another option is bringing in a pretty

table for the center of the room.
For those who like to lay out their attire
to help them choose their outfit for the day,
a table would be perfect, he says. And for
changing or trying things on, having a
snazzy upholstered bench or chaise in the
space will certainly come in handy.
The finishing touch: Prop up a framed,
full-length mirror on one wall.
Its sort of a boutique hotel look,
OConnor says, and easy to remove if you
repurpose the room.
CONSIDER A SYSTEM
For a finished look with no DIY effort,
there are many closet systems that offer a
mix of hanging space and shelves. Some
are free-standing and others are anchored to
the walls.
The more permanent systems are made to
look like built-ins, Welch says, and are a
great way to maximize the space with a

more customized look. He recommends
California Closets and Poliform for
portable closets and wardrobe units. He
also likes the Italian brand Porro Storage:
They put a chic spin on a typical storage
unit, he says.
Additional pieces worth considering: A
great planning tool is a valet rod, which is
a pullout rod that you can lay out your outfit for the next day on or use for staging for
a trip, says Sarah Fishburne, director of
trend and design at Home Depot. I use
mine all the time.
If you have enough space, she suggests
adding jewelry trays and racks designed for
belts and ties: Some spin, and some you
can slide out with plenty of space, she
says.
BONUSES AND OBSTACLES

A bedroom repurposed as a closet has ventilation and natural light thats lacking in
many closets. For people who care about
getting the tie to match the jacket,
OConnor says, theres nothing better
than natural light.
For the best possible lighting, Fishburne
suggests adding dimmers to a walk-in closet and choosing lightbulbs carefully (she
likes LED daylight bulbs).
One challenge: Closet doors are designed
to swing out, but bedroom doors generally
swing into the room. So the door to your
new walk-in closet will swing in unless you
decide to remove it. Adding sliding pocket
doors can be expensive, OConnor says,
but theyre a nice luxury to finish off your
ultimate walk-in closet.

FESTIVAL
current conditions, it can also have an
effect on ones offspring for generations to come.
This weekend, Lau will be at the
Skylawn Memorial Park to help celebrate Ching Ming grave sweeping festival and the San Mateo cemeterys new
grave site garden called Skyview a
feng shui-friendly area with views spanning the Pacific Ocean to the San
Francisco Bay.
Trained in Hong Kong, Lau said hes
been practicing for more than 25 years
while giving lectures and private consultations on how people can adjust
their surroundings to improve their
lives.
I first got into it because I feel this
could be helpful for our human beings
and I feel a passion for doing this and I
see the good results after I assist the
family, Lau said while on his way to a
Sacramento home for a consultation.
But unlike the more widely-known
feng shui principles used in interior
design or even when considering
whether a certain home is suitable for a
particular person, theres another time
the tradition is valued the afterlife.
Its worthwhile for people to consider
the yang home or house, as well as their
yin home or eternal resting place, Lau
said.
Feng shui, which literally translates
into wind and water, has a lot to do with
balance and movement. It can also be
tailored to a particular individual based
on their birthday, such as determining
the positioning in which one should be
buried, Lau said.
This is the basic energy that we are
utilizing whether we are living in this
world now as human beings, we need to
have water and wind; or even when we
pass in the future, we also need the energy to be in the location to generate
good ways for the living of the next
generations. Thats how the Chinese

passengers a year from Alameda,
Oakland, San Francisco, South San
Francisco and Vallejo.
It works with cities to establish new
ferry routes where the proposed route
reduces traffic congestion in the transit corridor, is cost-effective and
financially viable.
Over the next 10 years, WETA will
open two maintenance facilities,
expand the terminal facilities in downtown San Francisco and open new terminals in Richmond and Treasure
Island.
tradition has been for a couple thousand

years, Lau said.
In recent times, Lau said hes been
traveling to the West Coast to offer his
advice and will lead several lectures during this weekends Ching Ming festival
at Skylawn. Known as the grave
sweeping festival, its actually a joyful
occasion for people to remember loved
ones during spring and will include
dance performances, free lunch and more
at the cemetery off State Route 92.
Lau, who will give lectures in
Cantonese and English, is also known
for working on a new section of the
serene Valley of the Temples Memorial
Park an Oahu cemetery boasting a
large Japanese-style temple, koi pond
and 9-foot-tall Buddha statue.
Lau said Skylawns new burial garden
has natural feng shui with the hills surrounding and pulling energy toward the
site that overlooks views of the Pacific
Ocean.
Tours will be given of the new
Skyview development, a tiered area
offering nearly 8,000 grave sites ranging from traditional ground burials to
cremation plots, said Skylawn Director
of Administration Jason Raichert.
Its said to have amazing feng shui.
So we thought this year wed bring
Master Lau in to show it and actually
take people up there and show them the
views of the ocean and the different
mountains in the backdrop and the Bay
on the other side, Raichert said.
Prop SF, a private company, shuttles
about 35 passengers at a time to
Redwood City now and wants to start a
route from South San Francisco to
Redwood City. It is in talks with the
Port of Redwood City to bring its service there eventually.
WETA, however, has 300-passenger
ferries.
Weve been interested in ferry service being developed for a number of
years, Port of Redwood City
Executive Director Michael Giari said
Wednesday.
Giari wants to know why there are no
long-term plans to bring public ferry
service to Redwood City.

Buses will transport people to the site

with pickups in San Francisco, San Jose
and Oakland, Raichert said, adding its
exciting to have someone of Laus
stature and experience visiting
Skylawn.
Master Lau, not only has he been
extremely knowledgeable and tells us
small little things we can do to enhance
different aspects of our service and our
development, but hes a genuinely
friendly person that takes his time to
speak to others and really gives you
honest opinions, Raichert said.
Raichert and Lau noted while Skylawn
is popular amongst a large Chinese population and traditional feng shui is traditionally practiced by people of Asian
decent, everyone is encouraged to participate.
It speaks to a diverse group of people, Raichert said, while noting this
weekend is a great time for newcomers
to visit. Ching Ming is a lot of fun. I
know its a traditional Chinese holiday,
but its a lot of fun for people of all religious beliefs and denominations to
enjoy a meal and see an exciting performance.
Lau said hes pleased to teach people
about how to apply feng shui in both
their current homes, as well as their
final resting place particularly as the
latter can have a lasting impact on
bringing good fortune to ones children
and grandchildren.
We consider this our long-term home
after we pass away, this is the home we
go into for eternity, Lau said, adding he
enjoys educating people about how
important [feng shui] is to help them
with the flowing of the family, harmonizing for their love and as well for
health. So I feel I have this passion to
make the rest of the world understand our
practice for thousands of years.
The Ching Ming festival is through
April 3. Ev ents are planned both
Saturday and Sunday. Visit www.skylawnmemorialpark .com or call (650)

Maybe there isnt a market for a
300-passenger ferry but maybe for a
100-passenger ferry, Giari said.
The agencys ridership forecasts are
out of date, he said.
Ferry service could bring traffic
relief to the Peninsula, Redwood City
Vice Mayor Ian Bain said.
I would like to see WETA reconsider
Redwood City as part of its ShortRange Transit Plan for all the reasons
outlined in the letter. There are tremendous opportunities for public/private
partnerships within the next 10 years
that can help fund the service in this
area and alleviate some of the congestion on our roads, Bain wrote in an
email.
