Growing enrollment and a lack of open land in San Carlos may mean school ofcials could house two schools on an existing site, ofcials said this week. Last year, San Carlos Elementary School District ofcials said they must add capacity because of the growing number of children at
all of its schools. On Thursday, the board will discuss drawings of a possible solution: Building a new elementary school on the Central Middle School site. Board President Seth Rosenblatt said planning to use district-owned property seemed to be the best solution thus far. While he is open to other alternatives, Rosenblatt added building on district-owned property would save money. Additionally, before moving forward,
the district will need to decide on the best possible conguration. Congurations prepared by architect Paul Byrne will be shared Thursday. Essentially, the proposal calls for splitting the existing parcel into two separate campuses. The northern campus would house Central Middle School, which would require upgrades like two-story classroom buildings and a performing arts building. The southern campus would
be dedicated to a new school with a large grass area, play elds and a separate drop-off loop connecting to Arroyo Street. If a new school were to be built, the district would need to also study ways to cover the costs. Thats often completed through a bond measure. Superintendent Craig Baker estimated the bond could cost between $29 million to
South San Francisco police are alleging a man arrested for molestation last week raped at least three of his girlfriends sisters, one who was only 5 years old, Detective Ken Chetcuti told the Daily Journal yesterday. Kyle Clifton Vogt, 36, was arrested Kyle Vogt Thursday after a two-week investigation by police that revealed he allegedly had carried on a sexual relationship with his girlfriends half-sister for at least eight years starting when the victim was just 5. If convicted, Vogt could face 15 years to life in prison, according to the San Mateo County District Attorneys Ofce. Yesterday, Chetcuti said Vogt will also be charged with molesting two of the girlfriends other sisters between 2000 and 2012. Vogt also allegedly molested a fourth girl whose parents he knew, Chetcuti said. The investigation is ongoing, he said, and other victims may emerge. Vogt singled out one of the victims, his girlfriends younger
San Mateo police Ofcer Travis Barker feeds Borry,his K-9 partner,a dog bone made by second graders at St.Matthew Catholic School.The students started a business making the organic bones and used the prots to buy a custom bulletproof vest for Borry.
Its hard to quiet a room full of children but San Mateo police Ofcer Travis Barker tried Tuesday morning. Barker asked the students at St. Matthew Catholic School to stay calm as he brought out his K-9 partner Borry. Little voices whispered shhhhh... throughout the auditorium until the black 4-year-old German Shepherd became visible on the stage. Awwww... was the loud reaction met instantly with peace signs and shhhh, a
quick response for little ones looking at a dog. Borry was there as a thank you to the students of St. Matthew Catholic School. Seventy-two second grade students had created a successful business venture making and selling dog bones. Bow Wow Bones sold 5,000 bones, resulting in $1,000 in revenue which the students used to help buy a customized bulletproof vest for Borry. The black vest, which includes the San Mateo Police Department badge on the front, was given to Borry during the school assembly Tuesday morning.
You have decided to protect him while he protects us, said San Mateo Police Chief Susan Manheimer, who then saluted the children. St. Matthews second grade teacher, Mary Downs, developed a fundraising lesson plan that taught the budding young entrepreneurs how to organize and execute a business. The six-week lesson plan covered a variety of scholastic subject areas. Kids do better in school with an authentic experience, said Downs.
The man accused of fatally strangling Tracey Biletnikoff in a San Mateo rehabilitation program meeting space after relapsing on drugs and alcohol told a psychiatrist that he didnt have control over those actions the way he did during the double kidnapping of a former girlfriend. Mohammed Ali I chose to do that, Mohammed Haroon Ali, 36, said of forcibly taking his childhood girlfriend including once when he broke down her door and brandished a knife. But Ali said Biletnikoffs Feb. 15, 1999 death was different. Here, I didnt choose to do what I did, Ali told Dr. James Missett during a March 2 conversation in the District Attorneys Ofce.

Burlingame ofcials introduced new restrictions on leaf blowers throughout the city during its Monday meeting. In January, the council generally agreed with the plan to section the city into four areas with time and day restrictions of when leaf blowers can be used. Staff was asked to check with school ofcials about the possible restrictions and return with opinions. As a result of the feedback, City Manager Jim Nantell suggested treating schools and city parks like multi-residential homes which would allow leaf blowers to be used twice a week, Tuesday and Friday. Both park maintenance workers and school ofcials would like more days. Alternatively, the city could consider allowing these groups to do work three days a week Monday, Wednesday and Friday, according to Nantells report. The council made some modications by exempting properties of 5 acres or more from
the rules. Looking at leaf blower restrictions came about last year when the Burlingame Citizens Environmental Council recommended the ban to maintain clean air and water while cutting down on air and noise pollution. Since then, a community poll showed residents were split over a complete ban but showed stronger support for a ban on gas-powered leaf blowers. Current law limits how loud a leaf blower can be and the hours of operation to 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 4 p.m. on Sundays and holidays. Under the new rules, leaf blowers can be no louder than 65 decibels and to have them certied by the city. Commercial gardeners would be allowed to use the devices on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday in specied residential areas. Residents who do their own gardening would be allowed to use leaf blowers on weekends from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. as well as the areas designated day for their neighborhood. Lastly, there is a $50 penalty for violating the rules.

The San Mateo County coroner violated his duty and the law by giving pieces of a deceased mans brain to a private pathologist for evaluation in a wrongful death suit without notifying his devoutly Jewish parents they were not burying his entire body, according to a civil suit led on their behalf. The amended suit by Jerald and Sandra Wolkoff led March 1 is a response to a judge tentatively ruling last month that Coroner Robert Foucrault did not have a mandatory duty to notify them. Judge Raymond V. Swope upheld the countys request to dismiss the suit but gave the Wolkoffs the chance to le a new complaint. The new suit still argues Foucrault had a duty but also makes new allegations about the facts and alleged violations, including his alleged interference with the Wolkoffs right to dispose of their sons remains under California law. Although a judge can again side with the county or ask for more information, attorney J. Gary Gwilliam said the Wolkoff hopes they can now have a trial and bring their suffering to resolution. Steven Wolkoff died June 21, 2008 in a vehicle crash on Highway 1 that also killed another 21-year-old man. During the autopsy, pieces of his neck and brain stem were
retained as part of standard procedure. The following June, the Wolkoffs sued several parties in their sons death including the county and American Medical Response whose workers they said failed to revive him. In preparing its defense, AMR subpoeRobert naed the coroner records Foucrault and tissue slides. The family learned during a May 2010 deposition that their sons brain was not buried with his body. I was dumbfounded, frankly, said attorney Steven Brewer who was at the deposition. Brewer said the subpoena sought for AMRs private pathologist to look at records and examine any tissue blocks but not remove them or create new slides. Gwilliam said typical protocol calls for all parties to sign off on the request to ensure everybody has accurate notice. Had the attorneys known of the plan, they could have disputed the subpoena, Gwilliam said. Thats what made the family so angry, he said. The subpoena did not give the coroner the right to release the tissue to create new evidence without the notication or consent of the Wolkoffs, the suit argues. The Wolkoffs faith also considers dissection for reasons not urgent or medical a mat-
ter of shame and gross dishonor, the suit states. The couple, who live in New York, is seeking general damages but also for travel, cemetery grave opening, re-internment and religious services. Aside from any legal mandate, the suit contends Foucrault violated the policies of his own office which were established after another mother sued over the retention of her deceased sons heart. That suit by Selina Picon sparked proposed state legislation that failed to become law but the courts ruled in the countys favor. Foucrault has said the policy concerns organs not tissue slides and that disclosure of the guidelines are widely shared in the ofce and on its website. The suit also argues Foucrault breached his duty as an independent coroner when he released the tissue because the wrongful death suit also named San Mateo County. Rather than treating the tissue with dignity, the countys attorneys were allowed to desecrate them and Foucraults conduct violates the common law duty to refrain from disturbing the body, the suit contends. A case management conference is set for March 14.

A man allegedly high on cocaine who reportedly rampaged through one closed Redwood City business, looted two others and attacked vehicles with a fire extinguisher before hiding from a police dog in a cabinet last summer pleaded no contest to seconddegree burglary and vandalism. In return, Kevin Michael Dolf faces up to four years in prison when sentenced May 1. After his arrest in the Aug. 14 incident, authorities said Kevin Michael Dolfs erratic behavior was due to drugs and caused an esti-
mated $18,000 worth of damage to the downtown Redwood City businesses he targeted. Dolf, 31, began by smashing out the windshields and windows of three cars on Main Street before continuing the socalled rampage inside a Kevin Dolf closed business. Dolf allegedly broke the glass doors and windows of two other businesses, ransacking the interi-
ors and putting stolen property in outside trash bins to later be wheeled away. A witness called 911 from a cellphone to report the incidents at 4:41 a.m., according to Redwood City police logs. When Redwood City police arrived, Dolf allegedly barricaded himself inside one business and hid inside a cabinet in hope of eluding a police dog. After police arrested Dolf, they reported he appeared under the inuence of drugs and had cocaine in his pocket. He remains in custody.
HOPE MILLS, N.C. A decorated Green Beret leapt from the second-story of his burning home early Tuesday, wrapped himself in a blanket and ran back inside in an attempt to save his two young daughters. Fireghters recovered the body of Chief Warrant Ofcer Edward Cantrell on the second oor of his North Carolina home, not far from the remains of 6-year-old Isabella and 4-yearold Natalia. He never made it back out, said Debbie Tanna, spokeswoman for the Cumberland County sheriffs ofce. Cantrells wife and the girls mother, Louise, also jumped from the second oor. She was treated and released from a Fayetteville hospital for smoke inhalation. The family dog, a Rottweiler named Sasha, also survived the re. Cantrell was a special forces paratrooper who served six tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Friends and relatives gathered to recover what they could from burned-out house in Hope Mills, a small community about a 20-minute drive from the gates of Fort Bragg. The house, which featured a broad front porch with tall columns, was built in 1920. Tanna said the old homes timbers were likely very dry, causing a fast-moving blaze. The cause of the re is still under investigation. A sign at the end of the driveway blocked with yellow police tape says The Cantrells Est. Feb. 7, 2004. Bouquets of owers and two teddy bears had been placed nearby. Fireghters from Cotton Volunteer Fire Department, which is less than two miles away, were on the scene within four minutes of receiving the dispatch call. Assistant Chief Kevin Dove said the house was already engulfed in ames. They perished before our arrival, said Dove, a veteran reghter. It was horrible. Cantrell, 36, was a member of the 3rd Special Forces Group at Fort Bragg. He held the rank of chief warrant ofcer 2, which authorized Cantrell to lead half of his 12-member Green Beret team if it was split up, said Lt. Col. April Olsen, a spokeswoman for Army Special Forces Command.

Man assaulted with crowbar outside Peets
A 33-year-old Belmont man was hit with a crowbar outside Peets Coffee after a ght with another man yesterday morning, according to police. At approximately 11:35 a.m., Belmont police responded to the coffee shop on the 1200 block of El Camino Real and found the man. Witnesses described the suspect as Hispanic, 5 feet 10 inches and stocky. He left in a dark 1990s Acura, according to police. The victim, who was taken to the hospital, is not cooperating with police, but police believe they know each other and Tuesdays incident may have stemmed from a prior ongoing dispute.
The sad fact is that minority students across America face much harsher discipline than nonminorities,even within the same school.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan
strapped down or subjected to other restraints. The sad fact is that minority students across America face much harsher discipline than non-minorities, even within the same school, said Education Secretary Arne Duncan. Neither Duncan nor the report provided the details behind the numbers. Civil rights activists said they werent surprised by the results. They blamed get tough, zero tolerance policies that they say contribute to a schools-to-prisons pipeline. The problem, they say, is that zero tolerance applies more to minorities than white children. They say its time for a dialogue on appropriate and fair discipline.
Duncan said some school ofcials might not have been aware of inconsistencies in how they handle discipline, and he, too, hoped the report would be an eye-opener. Were not alleging overt discrimination in some or all of these cases, he said. Judith Browne Dianis, co-director of the Advancement Project, a think tank that specializes in social issues affecting minority communities, said research shows that black and Hispanic children are punished more harshly for the same offenses than white kids. Some think its necessary to crack down on minority children for small infractions. Theres bias in classrooms. Theres also this perception of children of color as being criminals, Dianis said
Raul Gonzalez, legislative director at the National Council of La Raza who taught school in New York, said zero tolerance policies in both schools and courtrooms have created a system that takes children out of school and ultimately leads them into prison where they become hardened criminals. He said more moderate responses are needed in schools, and he hopes that the report will lead not just to a change in policies in schools, but to state laws. Weve lost control of all judgment here, and its almost always a black kid or a Hispanic kid affected, Gonzalez said. Dianne M. Pichi, senior counsel and director of education program at the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, said school discipline codes that include subjective offenses like insubordination have contributed to the problem. She said theres no evidence that get-tough policies work, and they often make things worse by reinforcing a childs disengagement from school and low selfesteem.
NEW YORK The shadowy underworld of Internet hackers was rocked by news Tuesday that one of the worlds most-wanted and mostfeared computer vandals has been an FBI informant for months and helped authorities build a case against ve alleged comrades. The FBI said it captured the legendary hacker known as Sabu last
June, and he turned out to be Hector Xavier Monsegur, 28, a self-taught, unemployed computer programmer with no college education, living on welfare in public housing in New York. His exploits made him a hero to some in cyberspace until he made a rookie mistake he posted something online without cloaking his IP address, or computer identity and someone tipped off the FBI. Soon after his arrest, he pleaded guilty and began spilling secrets, leading to charges Tuesday against

ve people in Europe and the U.S., including a Chicago man, and preventing more than 300 attacks along the way, authorities said. Law enforcement ofcials said it marked the rst time core members of the loosely organized worldwide hacking group Anonymous have been identied and charged in the U.S. Investigators said Monsegur and the other defendants were all associated with the group, and some were also part of the elite spinoff organi-
zation that Monsegur formed last May, Lulz Security or LulzSec. Lulz is Internet slang for laughs or amusement. Monsegur and the other defendants were accused in court papers of hacking into corporations and government agencies around the world, including the U.S. Senate, filching confidential information, defacing websites and temporarily putting victims out of business. Authorities said their crimes affected more than 1 million people.

Super Tuesday
Romney wins Ohio,four other states
By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Mitt Romney squeezed out a win in pivotal Ohio, captured four other states with ease and padded his delegate lead in the race for the Republican presidential nomination but was forced to share the Super Tuesday spotlight with a resurgent Rick Santorum. On the busiest night of the campaign, Romney scored a home-state win in Massachusetts to go with primary victories in Vermont and in Virginia where neither Santorum nor Newt Gingrich was on the ballot. He added the Idaho caucuses to his column. Ohio was the big win, though, and the closest contest of all as the Republican rivals battled for the chance to face Democratic President Barack Obama in November. Santorum countered crisply, winning primaries in Oklahoma and Tennessee and the North Dakota caucuses raising fresh doubts about Romneys ability to corral the votes of conservatives in some of the most Republican states in the country. Ohio was the marquee matchup, a second industrial-state showdown in as many weeks between Romney and Santorum. It drew the
most campaigning and television advertisements of all 10 Super Tuesday contests and for good reason no Republican has ever won the White House without carrying the state in the fall. After trailing for much of the night, Romney forged ahead in a count that stretched past midnight. With votes tallied in 99 percent of the states precincts, he led by about 12,000 out of 1.1 million cast. Gingrich had a victory in his column, too his rst win in more than six weeks. The former House speaker triumphed at home in Georgia, but a barrage of attack ads by a super PAC supporting Romney helped hold him below 50 percent and forced him to share the delegates. Texas Rep. Ron Paul pinned his hopes on Alaska as he scratched for his rst victory of the campaign season. Santorum waited until Oklahoma and Tennessee fell into his column before speaking to cheering supporters in Ohio. This was a big night tonight, he said. We have won in the West, the Midwest and the South, and were ready to win across this country. In all, there were primaries in Virginia, Vermont, Ohio, Massachusetts, Georgia, Tennessee and Oklahoma. Caucuses in North Dakota, Idaho and Alaska rounded out the cal-
endar. Romney picked up at least 183 of the 419 Super Tuesday delegates at stake. Santorum gained at least 64, Gingrich 52 and Paul at least 15. That gave the former Massachusetts governor 386, more than all his rivals combined, a total that included endorsements from members of the Republican National Committee who automatically attend the convention and can support any candidate they choose. Santorum had 156 delegates, Gingrich 85 and Paul 40. It takes 1,144 delegates to win the nomination at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., this summer. The split of the states ensured that the most turbulent Republican presidential campaign in a generation would continue. Already, the candidates were looking ahead to the next contests, Kansas and Wyoming caucuses on Saturday, followed by Alabama and Mississippi primaries on March 13. Restore our Future, the super PAC that backs Romney, disclosed a near-$1 million investment for television ads in Illinois, the next big-state primary on the calendar, on March 20. The organization is already airing commercials in Mississippi and Alabama, as
NATION/WORLD
TEHRAN, Iran Efforts to nd a diplomatic solution to Irans disputed nuclear program appeared to get a boost Tuesday when world powers agreed to a new round of talks with Tehran, and Iran gave permission for inspectors to visit a site suspected of secret atomic work. The two developments countered somewhat the crisis atmosphere over Irans nuclear program, the focus of talks in Washington between President Barack Obama and Israels visiting prime minister. Speaking at a news conference, Obama said he saw a window of opportunity to use diplomacy instead of military force to resolve the dispute over Irans nuclear program. He said he is focused on crippling sanctions already imposed on Iran and on international pressure to keep Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon. Iranians need to
show they are serious about resolving the crisis, he said, adding that his policy is not one of containment but of stopping Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. The U.S. and its allies say Iran is on a path that could lead to the production of a nuclear weapon. Iran denies that, insisting its program is for energy production and other peaceful purposes. Speaking in Brussels, EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said the ve permanent members of the U.N. Security Council and Germany had agreed to a new round of nuclear talks with Iran. Previous talks have not achieved what the powers want an end to uranium enrichment on Iranian soil. The last round ended in failure in January 2011. Ashton said the EU hopes Iran will now enter into a sustained process of constructive dialogue which will deliver real progress in resolving the international communitys long-standing concerns on its nuclear program.

nys chief executive ofcer, Mark Zuckerberg, and launch his ofcial personal page on the site aimed at creating a dialogue with Arabs who live in countries that do not have diplomatic ties with Israel. In an interview with Chief Operating Ofcer Sheryl Sandberg streamed live on the companys website, Peres repeatedly praised Facebook as a tool for positive social change by enabling citizens of different countries to connect.
MOSCOW The urban professionals who have risen up against Vladimir Putin are the very people he needs to move Russia forward. So far he has shown few signs of understanding who they are and Vladimir Putin what they want. How Putin responds to the challenge, and whether he can stop the protests from spreading, will play a crucial role in determining the fate of his new term as president and of Russia itself. The factors that will shape the nations future: PUTIN FATIGUE: Evidence of vote-rigging to save Putins unpopular party from defeat in a December election set off a series of unprecedented protests. Long-stirring anger among young professionals and what has become known as the creative class was no longer conned to the Internet, but on display on the streets of Moscow and other cities. Protest rallies became a celebration of this newfound sense of community and purpose. The protesters are tired of the corruption Putin has fostered and the stiing political system that has deprived them of a voice in how their country is governed. Mostly, though, they are just tired of Putin. PUTINS CHOICE: Now that his return to the Kremlin is secured, the big question is how Putin will respond to the protests and the deeper grievances they represent. Will he tighten the screws or follow through on promises of political reform? His actions so far suggest he will try to do both. It will be a difcult balancing act. If he cracks down too hard on the opposition, or tries to control the Internet or the independent broadcasters that have become plat-

forms for free discussion, he could incite further anger. Ditto if his political reforms turn out to be just window dressing. But if Putin genuinely opens up the political system, he risks losing control over parliament and the governors who rule in his name across the vast country. WHITHER THE PROTESTS: The protesters say Putins promises to restore elections for governors and to allow opposition parties to take part in parliamentary elections are proof that they can be a force for change. They vow to keep up the pressure out on the streets. But it is not clear that they can maintain momentum now that the election is over. The mood at a protest on Monday was gloomier, and several hundred activists provoked a police crackdown by trying to occupy the central square after it was over. Some of the opposition leaders are becoming more confrontational, which could undermine the unity of a peaceful movement that has allowed liberals, leftists and nationalists to make common cause. On a more positive note, the protest movement may be giving rise to a new civic activism, as shown by the tens of thousands of volunteers who served as poll monitors during Sundays election. The movement also has encouraged some people who planned to leave the country to stay and do their part to make Russia a better place for themselves and their children. WHAT COULD BRING PUTIN DOWN: Putin has made no attempt to reach the new generation of educated, urban Russians and doesnt seem to know how. Even his humor, often crude and lled with references to old Soviet lms, falls at. He appears to be betting that he can contain the protesters anger and prevent them from broadening their appeal. The danger to Putin is the Russian economy, still dependent on exports of oil and gas despite grand plans to modernize industry. To consolidate his support ahead of the election, Putin threw money at all sectors of the population, promising billions of dollars in new spending that will severely strain the budget. If Putin doesnt deliver, his support base may turn against him. And if the workers, teachers and government employees who were bused to Putins campaign rallies decide to join the opposition protests instead, hes doomed.

attack inside the Interior Ministry in Kabul, U.S. and NATO advisers were withdrawn from all ministries. The probable trigger for the latest attacks was the mistaken but inexcusable burning of Korans at the U.S. air base in Bagram... The popular backlash in Afghanistan nevertheless reects deeper problems. There is understandable weariness with foreign troops after more than a decade of inconclusive war; resentment at the death of civilians in NATO operations; and frustration with the corruption and fecklessness of a U.S.-backed govern-
he latest crisis in Afghanistan strikes at the heart of the U.S. strategy for preventing the country from reverting to Taliban rule or becoming a base for al-Qaeda. If those goals are to be achieved, the Afghan security forces that have been recruited, trained and equipped at enormous cost over the past several years must be sustained something that will require continued training and advising by NATO, and heavy outside funding, for many years to come. That prospect seemed to be endangered recently when four U.S. soldiers were killed by Afghans in uniform. After an

The Obama administrations... setting of politically motivated timetables for troop withdrawals and aggressive pursuit of negotiations with the Taliban has convinced many Afghans that the United States is preparing to abandon the country. The only secure and honorable means of exit is to nish the work of creating an Afghan army and police force capable of defending the country from the Taliban and other extremists, with backup from U.S. special forces and air power. ... If the Obama administration chooses to accelerate the timetable or signicantly reduce the funding and thus the size of Afghan forces, it will become nearly impossible.

Wall Street
The gradual rally had been powered by optimism about the U.S. economic recovery. But investors realized that Greeces debt problems, Europes economic problems and Israels Iran problems were still very much their problems, too. Stocks fell sharply from the opening bell and never mounted a serious comeback. The Dow was down as much as 227 points. All but one of the 30 stocks in the average nished the day lower. Intel managed a gain of 7 cents. All 10 industry groups in the Standard & Poors 500 declined. Bank stocks, which typically take a hit when there is any reason to worry about Greece, led the declines, followed by industrial and materials companies, which depend on strength in the world economy. Alcoa, which makes aluminum and depends heavily on world economic demand, fell 4.1 percent, the worst of the Dow 30. China revised its projection for economic growth on Monday to 7.5 percent this year, down from 8 percent. The Standard & Poors 500 index fell 20.97 points, its worst decline since Dec. 8, to 1,343.36. The S&P had not declined 1 percent or more for 45 straight trading days, also the longest streak since 2006.
Big movers
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Tuesday on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Stock Market: NYSE Stage Stores Inc.,down 72 cents at $13.63 The retailer said that its fourth-quarter net income rose 2 percent on higher revenue, but its results missed expectations. Verifone Systems Inc.,up $3.69 at $50.24 The electronic payment company posted scal rst-quarter results and a full-year forecast that beat Wall Street expectations. Monster Worldwide Inc.,up 80 cents at $8.32 The online job listing company said it hired Stone Key Partners and BofA Merrill Lynch to help it consider strategic alternatives. Harvest Natural Resources Inc.,up $1.44 at $7.70 The Houston-based oil and gas company said it is negotiating the sale of its stake in oilproducing assets in Venezuela. Nasdaq Nutrisystem Inc.,down $1.30 at $10.58 The weight-loss company posted a biggerthan-expected fourth-quarter loss and weak guidance as it spent more on advertising. Shufe Master Inc.,up $1.48 at $16.05 The slot machine makers rst-quarter prot rose 59 percent. It also said it will buy online poker company Ongame Network for $39 million. Sunesis Pharmaceuticals Inc., up 22 cents at $2.26 A Canaccord analyst initiated coverage of the biopharmaceutical company with aBuyrating on the potential of a cancer treatment. OmniVision Technologies Inc., up $1.33 at $17.16 A Baird analyst upgraded the image sensor makers stock saying he thinks the sensor may be used in Apples new iPad.
Stocks suffered their biggest losses in three months Tuesday, the rst hiccup in a strong and steady rally to start the year. Wall Street worried about the global economy and waited while Greece pressured the last investors to sign on for its bailout. The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 200 points, giving up more than a quarter of its 745-point advance since Jan. 1, the best start to a year in the U.S. market since 1998. The sell-off, which spread west from Europe, also interrupted a period of unusual calm on Wall Street. Before Tuesday, the Dow had not fallen 100 points for 45 straight trading sessions, the longest streak since 2006. The decline of 203.66 points was the worst for the Dow since Nov. 23 and left the average at 12,759.15. It was only last week that the Dow closed above 13,000 for the rst time since May 2008, four months before the worst of the nancial crisis. When things go straight up and dont ever correct or have some sort of normal pullback, as an investor, that makes me nervous, said Ed Hyland, a global investment specialist with J.P. Morgan Private Bank.
NEW YORK Gasoline prices have nally dropped after 27 straight days of increases. The nationwide average for regular unleaded slipped less than a penny to $3.764 per gallon. That ended a streak of price hikes that began on Feb. 8. Pump prices rose by more than 28 cents per gallon in that period, making gasoline the most expensive ever for this time of year. Also Tuesday, oil fell to its lowest price in about two weeks, while the price of natural gas remained near a 10-year low.
The relief at the pump should be temporary. Experts predict that gasoline prices will rise over the next several weeks. The Oil Price Information Service says the nationwide average could peak at $4.25 per gallon in late April, beating the record high of $4.11 per gallon set in July 2008. That will likely keep gas prices front and center in the presidential campaign and economists will argue their impact on the U.S. economy. At a White House press conference, President Obama dismissed suggestions by some of his Republican critics that he wants to see gasoline prices rise. No president wants to put more nancial strain on American families, especially
in an election year, Obama said. The White House will continue to look for ways to reduce the amount of oil Americans consume, Obama said. The president also asked his attorney general to examine whether speculators were driving up the price of oil. But there is no silver bullet for lowering oil and gas prices, Obama warned. Meanwhile, the government boosted its estimates for average oil and gasoline prices. The Energy Department said the average price of oil should be nearly $106 per barrel this year while gasoline should cost an average of $3.79 per gallon. Government data show Americans paid an average of $3.53 per gallon in 2011.

NEW YORK Apple is expected to reveal a new iPad model on Wednesday, with a sharper screen and perhaps an option for faster wireless broadband. The upgrades are relatively minor, but the iPad is secure in its position as the king of tablets. As usual, Apple has kept the features of the new device secret. No matter what they are, analysts expect the new iPad to
be a success, riding on the popularity of the previous models, as well as pent-up demand from consumers who have been waiting for the new model. The iPad 2 was a big step up from the original iPad, since Apple included a camera and reduced both the thickness and the weight of the device. But there isnt that much Apple can do to jazz up the iPad 3. Company watchers expect the new device to have the same basic size and weight as last years model. Nearly a year ago, the iPad 2 went on
sale nine days after it was revealed. Apple watchers expect similar timing this year. Some of the rumored new features include: A sharper screen, similar to the Retina Display on the iPhone 4 and 4s. The rumored resolution is 2048 by 1536 pixels, which would make text look smoother and some high-resolution pictures look better. It wont make much of a difference for images on the Web, or video.
SAN FRANCISCO Googles digital marketplace for mobile applications, music, movies and books is unifying under a new name in an effort to spruce up the shopping experience. Beginning Tuesday, the Android

a series of tweaks designed to make it easier for customers to manage their content and navigate from one section of the store to another. None of the changes will affect the digital content that existing customers have already purchased and stored on Google computers in password-protected accounts.
HOUSTON Former Texas tycoon R. Allen Stanford, whose financial empire once spanned the Americas and made him fabulously wealthy, was convicted Tuesday of bilking his investors out of more than $7 billion through a
Ponzi scheme he operated for 20 years. A day after telling U.S. District Judge David Hittner they were having trouble reaching a verdict, jurors convicted Stanford on 13 of 14 charges he faced, acquitting him on a single count of wire fraud stemming from Super Bowl tickets he allegedly used
to bribe a regulator. Stanford, who was once considered one of the wealthiest people in the U.S., looked down when the verdict was read. His mother and daughters, who were in the federal courtroom in Houston, hugged one another, and one of the daughters started crying.

By all accounts, San Mateos William Amaya can do the incredible. And the impossible. But dont take our word for it. Following the Bearcats nil-nil draw with Willow Glen in the CCS Division II boys soccer nal, Rams head coach John Llamas, a man who knows a thing or two about winning soccer titles, was
placed himself between every one of Willow Glens shots. And at the end of the game, it was Amaya and his teammates celebrating a share of the CCS title. It feels awesome, Amaya said of being a champion. Its awesome knowing I left everything on the eld. I think it was one of my better games of the season. I think its because I came ready to play, came ready to warm up and do my best.
The post-Jordan Richwood era is under way for the Hillsdale softball team and so far, its off to a rocky start. After opening the season with a loss to Notre Dame-Belmont, the Knights were back at it Tuesday, dropping a 6-0 decision to visiting St. Ignatius. Richwood was a four-year starting pitcher for the Knights before graduating last spring and heading off to the University of Memphis. She helped bring respectability and a Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division title back to a long dormant program. Replacing her is senior Dani Fonseca, who is no slouch herself in the pitchers circle. While she played the eld during Richwoods career, Fonseca is her club teams main hurler and has already earned a scholarship to Colorado University-Colorado Springs. Given her resume, Fonseca will be just ne handling the pitching duties this season. She had a decent outing against the Wildcats, scattering seven hits while striking out 12. She threw rst-pitch strikes to 24 of the 34 batters she faced. She did make one mistake, however, and it cost the Knights. With the bases loaded in the top of the third, Kelsie Bernard came to the plate and on a 1-2 pitch, smoked a long line drive to center eld which she turned into a grand slam. The hit was surprising given how the wind was howling in, but Bernards shot sliced through the wind with relative ease. Thats why I was playing (my outelders) shallow, said Hillsdale coach Randy Metheany, factoring in the wind. Even if his outeld was playing normal depth, no one would have gotten to Bernards ball. The Wildcats proceeded to tack on single runs in the fourth and seventh innings. A couple of pitches were a little up, but with 12 strikeouts, I cant put it (the loss) on the pitcher, Metheany said. You have to score at least one run (to win). We just have to get better.
Hillsdales Dani Fonseca struck out 12 and scattered seven hits in a 6-0 loss to St. Ignatius Tuesday afternoon.
For two of the ve teams still playing basketball in 2012, the journey for Northern California supremacy begins tonight. El Camino and Half Moon Bay will be rocking tonight as they host round one matchups in the CIF State Tournament. The Colts are seeded sixth in Division III and theyll host No. 11 El Cerrito at 7 p.m. The Ocean Division champion Cougars are the No. 8 seed in Division IV and welcome No. 9 Calaveras at 7 p.m. For the Colts, it marks the rst time in school history theyve participated in the states quest for a champion. The Cougars take their third crack at a title, but their rst since winning CCS back in 1996. Neither team has ever won a Nor Cal playoff game. Theres a nice buzz going around the school, said El Camino head coach Archie Junio. Its good. The morale of the school is high. The Colts are coming off a loss in the CCS Division III nal against Nor Cal No. 1 seed Sacred Heart Cathedral. In that game, the biggest story was the absence of PAL Bay Division Most Valuable Player Elijah White, who was suspended by the school prior to Saturdays championship game. Junio conrmed that White will be in uniform for Wednesdays matchup with the Gauchos, but he wont be in the starting lineup. As far as I know ... his game face is on, Junio said. I think hes ready to go. He is part of the family, so were going to welcome him back with open arms. I cant wait til he gets back on the court with us. Junio and the Colts are excited to have their full arsenal against El Cerrito, the No. 11 seed. Theyre going to need every one of their weapons on Wednesday.
INDIANAPOLIS The Peyton Manning era in Indianapolis is expected to end Wednesday, according to a report. Citing anonymous sources, ESPN reported Tuesday that the Colts plan to hold a news conference to announce the long-expected decision. Manning and team owner Jim Irsay are expected to attend, the network said. Colts spokesman Avis Roper said he could not conrm the decision or that a news conference would be held Wednesday because Irsay was out of town and could not
be reached for comment. Neither Irsay nor Mannings agent, Tom Condon, responded immediately to messages left by The Associated Press. Peytons older brother, Cooper, told USA Today in a phone interview that Peyton he had spoken to his Manning brother earlier Tuesday. Hes going through kind of an emotional time right now, Cooper Manning said. Until it was over, he was a
Colt through and through. Word of the impending breakup caught one of Mannings closest friends, longtime center Jeff Saturday, off guard. Saturday said Tuesday night that the two had not yet spoken about the apparent decision. I never thought it was a foregone conclusions, Saturday said. I was always hopeful theyd get something worked out, and that he would be back in a horseshoe, but it doesnt look thats going to happen. Thats what Manning wanted, too. He had said in the past that his goal was to play his entire career in a Colts uniform, but
a damaged nerve that forced him to have neck surgery kept him out of action for all of 2011. I cant tell you what an honor it is to go start-to-finish with the same organization here in Indianapolis. That is something I have always wanted to do as a rookie coming out, Manning said after signing a ve-year, $90 million contract in July. Of course, you never know if that is possible, but after yesterday it is official that I will be an Indianapolis Colt for my entire career. I will not play for another team. My last down of football will be with the Colts, which means a great deal to me.

Even though he missed punching the ball clear, San Mateo goalkeeper Will Amaya still had the presence of mind to clear the ball away with his leg. Amaya nished with 12 saves as the Bearcats tied Willow Glen for the CCS Division II soccer championship.

Continued from page 11
For his efforts, Amaya is the Daily Journal Athlete of the Week. Amaya and the Bearcats were under re from the onset. A minute in, the Rams red their rst shot warranting Amayas rst stunning save of the game. Its pretty important to be ready from the rst whistle, Amaya said. Actually, I wasnt ready. I was still putting on my gloves when I got that shot. But I had to what I had to do. The most important part is staying warm when the ball is not on your half. To be ready at all times. Amaya was the backbone of the Peninsula Athletic Leagues best defense in 2011-2012. But a long, tough game against St. Ignatius in the seminals might have left the Bearcats a little winded and fatigued heading into the nal. As such, Willow Glen, a handful even at full strength, gave San Mateo ts all day long. No, I wasnt expecting it, Amaya said of the Rams offensive pressure. I was expecting my defense to shut them down as usual. I wasnt expecting so much action. Of course, I expected them to be better, but not to get as many shots. Things didnt go according to plan on Saturday in that sense. But luckily for San Mateo, Amaya brought his A game. It almost wasnt the case though. In the semi-
nal match against St. Ignatius, a 3-2 win, the junior keeper broke his nose when a Wildcat player collided with him on a save. Amaya went to the sideline for treatment. I knew I couldnt let my team down, he said. After resetting it a little bit, as soon as it stopped bleeding, I went back in. I was little bit concerned but I was more worried about not letting my team down and not playing on Saturday. Amaya put off surgery on his nose until Monday to play in the championship game. And the Bearcats are glad he did. While the majority of his saves were of the world-class variety, The Save, as itll go down in San Mateo folklore, came in the second overtime of the game. On that play, Amaya said the saw the Willow Glen attacker square up and try to curve a ball from 30 yards away to his left side. The San Mateo keeper dove and reached across with his right hand and tipped the ball wide. I guess I even surprised myself with that one. It felt awesome, Amaya said. So great was the save and subsequent reaction, that it even brought some San Mateo fans to tears not bad considering Amaya has only been playing the position for about two years. I take every shot as a challenge, he said. It means a lot, Amaya said of winning the CCS title his junior season. I feel like Ive raised the bar a little bit, in terms of what they expect from a San Mateo athlete. And it feels awesome to know that we made it that far.

Jemile Weeks helps Oakland blank Milwaukee 6-0
PHOENIX Once Jemile Weeks got the ball in this rundown, he wasnt about to give it up. Weeks made a diving tag to nab his older brother Rickie in the rst inning and nished with two hits in the Oakland Athletics 6-0 exhibition victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday. Oakland left-hander Tommy Milone walked Rickie Weeks to lead off the game but picked him off rst. Jemile Weeks was the last player with the ball in the ensuing rundown and chased his brother back toward rst before going to the ground for the out, tackling his sibling at the bag in the process. He was acting like he was frustrated but he was all right, Jemile Weeks said. He just looked at me kinda funny and gave me a little smirk. Asked if he ever considered throwing the ball to a teammate, Weeks quickly said, No. Not a chance. Milone, one of four players acquired from Washington in the offseason deal that sent Gio Gonzalez to the Nationals, pitched three innings of one-hit ball. He struck out NL MVP Ryan Braun for one of his three Ks. It was a good feeling to get out one of the best hitters in the game right now, Milone said, especially to do it for the third out and walk off the eld. I didnt feel as good as I did the last time but I cant complain about the results. Milone, one of several pitchers in the mix for a spot in the Athletics largely open starting rotation, is proud of the development of the pickoff move he used to get Weeks. It used to be just a show me move, he said. Now its turned into, I wouldnt say a game changer, but it saves innings.

The Gauchos come in at 20-8, a little more than a week removed from a seminals loss to Bishod ODowd in the NCS playoffs. El Cerrito went 12-0 in Alameda Contra Costa League play this season and are denitely battle-tested, with games against McClymonds and Oakland on their schedule. El Camino and El Cerrito do have a common opponent both suffered blowout losses to Sacred Heart Cathedral. Theyre very athletic, Junio said. Very transition-oriented, pressure defense. Its one of those real-athletic teams, if Im not mistaken. The Gauchos have a trio of great scorers, much like the Colts. Theyre led by Justin Johnson and his 13.5 points per game. Hes also the teams leading rebounder at 5.4 per. Also hitting double gures is Tyrell Alcorn (10.7 ppg, 21 of 27 from beyond the arc this
season) and Marcellus Pippins (10.6 ppg). Fundamentals (will be the key), Junio said. Hopefully, we close out on the shooters, we play solid D, no easy buckets, force them to shoot jump shots. So, its just the fundamental things to stop the athletic teams. For the boys from Half Moon Bay, Wednesdays game against Calaveras is the icing on the cake. This is the reward for all the hard work, said Cougars head coach Rich Forslund. for the all time in the gym in practice, all the time we spent in the summer in the weight room in the mornings, things like that this is your reward for putting all that effort forward. For a high school team to play into March, thats always big time. Half Moon Bay hasnt been in the big time since 1996. This season was a bit of rebirth for the program, playing in the CCS nals against Sacred Heart Prep a game they loss. Still, the Cougars come into Wednesdays contest excited and condent they can make some serious noise.

But Carrie McKewan had good movement on her pitches and also located them well, holding the Knights to just two hits and four base runners. Freshman Tori Pierucci drew a one-out walk in the third for Hillsdales rst base runner. Senior Marissa Cho picked up the Knights rst hit, legging out an ineld hit in the fourth. Kelly Miller drew a leadoff walk in the fth, moved to second on a wild pitch and took third on a passed ball, but was stranded when the next three batters struck out.

lion in bank loans to fund the $1 billion stadium. It argued that the bank loan wasnt part of the measure that voters approved in 2010. The group tried to put the issue back on the June ballot. The city countered that the loan was an administrative act that didnt need voter approval. Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Peter Kirwan sided with the city. The San Francisco 49ers signed free agent safety and special teams standout C.J. Spillman to a threeyear contract extension Tuesday that takes him through the 2014 season, another move to keep the secondary intact for the reigning NFC West champions. I think were going to try and keep it going, Spillman told the teams ofcial website, referring to the playmaking special teams unit. It brought a different light to the game and from what Ive seen, people were really into those plays. Spillman, whose deal is worth a reported $6 million with $1.8 million in guaranteed money, has become a reliable tackler on special teams since the 49ers claimed him off waivers on Oct. 12, 2010. Last year, Spillman tied for second in the NFL with 14 special teams tackles. He is part of a secondary also featuring safety Dashon Goldson, who received the franchise tag Friday. C.J. is a high-energy, productive player with a strong team-rst mentality who is still developing, 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said. We are pleased to come to terms with C.J. for another three years,

BEVERLY HILLS Sprinkles, the Beverly Hills bakery that helped inspire the craze for sweet frosting in snack-size portions, will launch a cupcake dispensing machine at its agship store. Founder and owner Candace Nelson said her company is rolling out the rst high-tech vending machine on Tuesday, with three more in the works for New York City by the summer. The ATM-like machine features a touchscreen and a robotic arm that pulls the right avored cupcake from a wall of singleserving boxes inside the store. Nelson said the custom-built gadget is in response to demand for increased hours at the popular store. After dinner people want a cupcake. But we cant be open all night long because of our poor employees. So well just stock it fresh before they leave for the evening and itll be good to go, she said. The machines will be restocked constantly throughout the day so the goods stay fresh. Nelson said she was inspired to make the sugary treats available 24-7 when she realized that she couldnt satisfy her own late-night cravings.
Whenever I write a recipe I always try to put myself in the place where I had this recipe or what inspired me....So in the case of the Sopranos,instead of thinking of that time on the Amal coast,I was thinking What would (Tonys wife) Carmella make if it was late and she was coming home after selling real estate all day?

Dora and Diego Lets Cook. The genre of television-inspired cookbooks likely traces itself back to movies. Tie-in books have been around at least since the Pebeco Toothpaste company published the Gone with the Wind Cook Book in 1940. Some TV-inspired cookbooks feature well thought out recipes created by experienced culinary professionals, such as Scicolone (who is better known for cookbooks dedicated to Italian home cooking). Others are essentially community cookbooks that are untested or barely tested. But none of that seems to matter to fans. A lot of good people are brought on to produce them from time to time, but people buy them because its a lark, says Matt Sartwell, manager of the New York cookbook store Kitchen Arts and Letters. Most of the time people dont even think about the recipes. Most people understand were talking about ctional characters. Some of the books, such as the recently released The Unofcial Mad Men Cookbook, border on culinary anthropology. Just in time for the long-awaited start of the shows fth season (March 25), the cookbook offers an exhaustive
history of New York dining in the 1960s, right down to the actual recipes used in Draper haunts like Sardis and The Grand Central Oyster Bar. For her rst Sopranos cookbook theres also a follow up, the 2006 Entertaining with the Sopranos Scicolone drew on her family recipes and those of series creator David Chase to imagine what the New Jersey maa don and his family might really have eaten. Whenever I write a recipe I always try to put myself in the place where I had this recipe or what inspired me, Scicolone says. So in the case of the Sopranos, instead of thinking of that time on the Amal coast, I was thinking What would (Tonys wife) Carmella make if it was late and she was coming home after selling real estate all day? Other books are intended primarily as fan documents. We were just fans of the Andy Grifth Show, says Beck, who wrote Aunt Bees Mayberry Cookbook with co-author Jim Clark.

You can easily whip up a dinner that leaves you feeling like youve had star treatment. My trick? Making sure a bit of bubbly is involved at every step of the process beginning to end. So I created this simple, but richly decadent risotto studded with thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms and strips of smoked salmon. A generous amount of sparkling wine added throughout the cooking process as well as a generous application of it to the cook ensures the experience is Oscar-worthy. Dont like bubbles? You can always substitute a dry riesling. Dont care for smoked salmon? Substitute small shrimp (and cook for an extra 3 to 5 minutes, or until just pink and rm).
3 cups chicken stock or broth, warmed to a simmer 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 4-ounce package smoked salmon, cut into thin strips In a medium skillet over medium-high, melt the butter. Add the onion and shiitakes and saute for 4 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add 1 cup of the wine and cook, stirring constantly, until completely absorbed. Add half of the chicken stock or broth, stir several times, then let simmer until the liquid is nearly completely absorbed. Continue adding stock, 1/2 cup at a time and stirring constantly until absorbed between each addition. When all of the stock has been added and absorbed, add another cup of sparkling wine. Stir until absorbed. The rice should be tender, but still just barely rm at the center. Stir in the cinnamon, salt and pepper. Add the cheese and mix until melted and creamy. Adjust seasonings. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the salmon and the remaining 1/4 cup of sparkling wine. Serve immediately (with more sparkling wine, of course).

percent of primary voters said they, too, had reservations about the candidate they supported. No Republican has ever won the White House without capturing Ohio. Gingrichs victory was his rst since he captured the South Carolina primary on Jan. 21, and the former House speaker said it would propel him on yet another comeback in a race where he has faded badly over the past six weeks. Obama, the man they hope to defeat in November, dismissed the almost-constant criticism of his foreign policy efforts and accused Republicans of beating the drums of war over Iran. Those folks dont have a lot of responsibilities. Theyre not commander in chief, he said. Unopposed for the Democratic nomination to a second term, he stepped into the Republican race with a Super Tuesday news conference at the White House, then attended a $35,800-a-ticket fundraiser a few blocks from the White House. Ohio was the days biggest prize in political signicance, a heavily populated industrial state that tested Santorums ability to challenge Romney in a traditional fall battleground. Georgia, Gingrichs home political eld, outranked them all in the number of delegates at stake, with 76, a total that reected a reliable Republican voting pattern as well as population. Romney, the leader in the early delegate chase, ew to Massachusetts to vote and said he hoped for a good home-state win. He also took issue with Obama, saying, I think all of us are being pretty serious about Iran and its possible attempt to develop nuclear weapons. Dawn Wells, the actress who played the shows beguiling Mary Ann. And Grannys Beverly Hillbillies Cookbook (1994) offers recipes from the Clampetts stamping ground in the Ozarks. Yes, were talking ground hog. I got that from a friend of mine whose mother prepared ground hog in the Depression years, Beck says. Cookbooks as a general category do well for publishers, but having a television connection often gives them an extra push. Television shows have long seasons, an established audience and re-runs with the potential to constantly generate new customers. The books also benet from strong crosspromotional opportunities, Goodman says. For instance, customers searching Amazon or Barnes and Noble online for a Dora shirt or a SpongeBob toy might also be alerted to the cookbook, racking up collateral sales. Gingrich effectively acknowledged he had scant Super Tuesday prospects outside Georgia, where he launched his political career nearly three decades ago. Instead, he was pointing to primaries next week in Alabama and Mississippi, and he told an audience, With your help, by the end of next week we could really be in a totally new race. The polls show the presidents chances for reelection have improved in recent months, as the economy has strengthened, unemployment has slowly declined and Republicans have ripped into one another in the most tumultuous nominating campaign the party has endured since 1976. The former Massachusetts governor campaigned into Super Tuesday on a winning streak. He captured the Washington state caucuses last Saturday, days after winning a littlecontested primary in Arizona and a hard-fought one in Michigan. He won the Maine caucuses earlier in February. The victories helped settle his campaign, which was staggered when Santorum won a pair of caucuses and a non-binding Missouri primary on Feb. 7. Santorum and Gingrich have vied for months to emerge as the sole conservative alternative to Romney, and they battered him as a moderate who would lead the party to defeat in November. But Romney, backed by a heavily nanced super PAC, countered Gingrichs victory in the South Carolina primary with a comeback win in Florida. Last week, it was Santorums turn to fall, as Romney eked out a win in Michigan after trailing by double digits in some polls 10 Some shows, like the Sopranos, make easy work for the writer by offering lots of scenes with food. In the ABC series Desperate Housewives, each character had her own particular culinary style. I felt as though I knew these characters, and that I could easily take their point of view and give them a voice in the kitchen, says The Desperate Housewives Cookbook coauthor Chris Styler, a chef and culinary consultant who says he was a big fan of the show. Some of these ideas, especially for Bree, were easier because she would go into more detail about what she was cooking, Styler said. Susan was just trying to keep her head above water. Lynette was always scrambling to get something on the table. Gabrielle never went anywhere near a kitchen. Other books require more imagination. For instance, the hit NBC series Friends largely takes place in a coffee shop, but little food

is a group that supports Gingrich, although at lower levels. Ohio Republicans were a party divided, based not only on the popular vote but also on interviews with voters as they left their polling places. Santorum outpolled Romney among Ohioans with incomes under $100,000, while Romney won among those with six-gure incomes and up. Romney won among working women, Santorum among women who do not. Santorum won among self-described conservatives, while Romney outpointed his rival among those who said they are moderate or liberal. Santorum was preferred by the half of the electorate that is born-again. Romney was the favorite among the half of the electorate that said it is not. In interviews in all the primary states, Republicans said the economy was the top issue and an ability to defeat Obama was what mattered most as they made their Super Tuesday choices. They also indicated nagging concerns about the candidate they supported, even in Massachusetts, There, one-third of all primary voters said they had reservations, and about three-quarters of those voted for Romney. Massachusetts is a reliably Democratic state in most presidential elections, but in Ohio, 41

Plums give a fresh, tangy taste Woman claims harassment at Paula Deen restaurant
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
When we think of winter desserts, we often think of spiced avors and butterladen richness. But while that butter may bring comfort at the end of a chilly winter day, it also adds tons of unnecessary fat and calories. But winter treats dont need to put a chill on healthy eating. A good place to start when looking for more healthful desserts is fruit, which not only packs plenty of its own noadded-sugar sweetness, it also tends to have gobs of ber and nutrients. For this dessert, we chose tangy citrus and sweet plums. Plums naturally caramelize beautifully, adding deep avor to the dish. To complement the fruit and bring out its natural sweetness, we add just a touch of honey. Everybody likes a good spiced crisp topping, but nutritionally it often doesnt add up. Crisp topping usually makes a good start with healthy ber-rich oats, but goes downhill with a pile of sugar and butter. To remake this topping, we stayed true to its oat roots, but added a handful of healthy-fat almonds, a generous dose of spices and a touch of honey. For a creamy topping we opted for a spoonful of fat-free plain Greek-style yogurt. It adds the creamy dairy mouth feel that whipped cream offers, but with no added fat and a great serving of calcium. We sweetened it up just a touch with honey and a couple drops of almond extract. Dont be intimidated by the number of ingredients in this recipe. It comes together quickly and most of it is done right on the stove.
A good place to start when looking for more healthful desserts is fruit,which not only packs plenty of its own no-added-sugar sweetness.
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves 1/8 teaspoon allspice Pinch salt 1 tablespoon canola oil 1 tablespoon honey 3/4 cup rolled oats 1/4 cup sliced almonds For the yogurt topping: 5.3-ounce container plain fat-free Greek yogurt 1 teaspoon honey Several drops almond extract For the plums: 6 plums, quartered and pitted 2 tablespoons honey 2 tablespoons water Pinch salt 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest 1/2 teaspoon orange zest Juice of 1 lemon Juice of 1 orange 1 tablespoon cornstarch Heat the oven to 400 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, salt, oil and honey. Add the oats and almonds, then toss to coat evenly. Spread the mixture evenly over the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp, stirring once or twice. Meanwhile, make the yogurt topping. In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, honey and almond extract. Set aside. In a large skillet, combine the plums, honey, water, salt, lemon zest and orange zest. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the plums are just softened, about 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, orange juice and cornstarch. Stir into the plums and bring up to a simmer for 1 minute, or until the juices are thickened. Spoon the warm plums into individual bowls, topping each with some of the crisp topping and a spoonful of the yoghurt topping. Serve immediately.
SAVANNAH, Ga. The former general manager of a Savannah restaurant co-owned by Paula Deen claimed in a lawsuit led Monday she was sexually harassed and subjected to a hostile work environment rife with sexual innuendo, physical intimidation and racial slurs. Lisa Jackson said in the lawsuit, led in Chatham County Superior Court, her physician encouraged her to quit working at Uncle Bubbas Seafood and Oyster House because she suffered from panic attacks and other stress from working Paula Deen there. The restaurant is owned by Deen and her brother Bubba Hiers. Jackson said in the lawsuit that Hiers routinely made inappropriate sexual and racial remarks and that she heard both Hiers and Deen use racial slurs. She also said in the lawsuit she saw Hiers violently shake a black employee and that he fostered an environment of intimidation. A spokesman for Deen declined to comment on the pending litigation, and Hiers didnt immediately return calls seeking comment. Jackson, who is white, was hired at the restaurant in February 2005 and within months was promoted to general manager with a mandate from Deen to turn it into a success. Hiers soon began targeting her with unwanted advances, she said, and he watched pornography in the small ofce the two shared. He also distributed pictures of two women having sex at an ofce meeting and complained about heavier staff members, the complaint said. She said Hiers made racially insensitive remarks and that his restaurant required black staff members to use the back entrance and banned them from using a customer restroom that white staffers were allowed to use. During one meeting in July 2010, she said Hiers violently shook a black male kitchen worker. Deen later decided to invite the man to her mansion to smooth things over rather than to address her brothers conduct, the lawsuit said. In another incident, Hiers challenged his staffers to a ght, she said. Jackson said she routinely suffered from panic attacks that often began when Hiers came to work each morning. The situation came to a head in August 2010 when Jackson said Hiers grabbed her face during a dinner for vendors at the restaurant and declared I love you, then later screamed at her and spit in her face.

ALI
Continued from page 1
A DVD of the interview was played for jurors yesterday in Alis trial as part of the prosecutions rebuttal case. In the conversation, Ali reiterated many details already shared with jurors during his time on the stand last week and his common explanation that many things before and after Biletnikoffs death wasnt making sense to me. He told Missett he doesnt remember anything between putting his hands on Biletnikoffs shoulder to move her from blocking the ofce door and seeing her unresponsive on the oor and believing she was dead. Its hard to explain ... it s like your mind is doing something else ... and your body is doing something else, he said. Alis defense maintains the choking was a crime of passion and more tting a voluntary manslaughter than the rstdegree murder conviction he received in 2001. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the verdict in 2009 for racial discrimination during jury selection and sent the case back to San Mateo County. The retrial began in late January and unlike the rst Ali has testied on his own behalf and his defense argues a previously undiagnosed bipolar condition and emotional duress were factors. Ali and 20-year-old Biletnikoff, the daughter of former football star Fred Biletnikoff, met in 1997 at respective substance abuse programs that over-
lapped in San Mateo. Ali, who had joined Project 90 after testing dirty twice as part of his probation, had been clean two years and was working part time as a counselor with the program. The weekend before their confrontation, Ali drank beer with some friends in San Francisco followed by using crack, heroin and crank. Although Ali said he did not choose to kill Biletnikoff referred to by Missett only as the thing with Tracey he did concede choosing to drink and do drugs and offered conicting views on whether he knew the beer would lead to other substances. During two separate forcible kidnappings of a former girlfriend, he grabbed the woman similar to the way he grabbed Biletnikoff, Missett said. Missett also pointed out that much of the physical violence between he and that ex-girlfriend involved drugs and alcohol. He asked if Ali would have consumed either had he known it would lead to Biletnikoffs death. park space when school is not in session. Laureola School was an elementary school on the east side of El Camino Real built in 1951. It was closed in 1978 due to declining enrollment. Today, Laureola Park, located at 503 Old County Road, remains. At the same meeting, the board will discuss middle school electives. Throughout this school year, district administrators have been meeting to discuss curriculum, instruction, professional development, scheduling and other issues. The group identied top priorities for the next two years: consistent course offerings; dene what is considered core curriculum; expand foreign language offerings; and expand elective offerings. In terms of scheduling, possible changes could happen at both Central and Tierra Linda middle schools Coming up with a business name was a collaboration between the two second grade classes, said Jack H. Once there was a product and a company name, the students got to selling at lunch, said finance team member Jackson, who added both children and adults supported the second grade effort. After selling 500 boxes, students began considering what to do with the funds. Sales cashier Kyle said the students wanted to do something fun, which is how the idea to buy the bulletproof vest came up. They gave 30 percent of their prots toward the vest. Advertising Manager Laura was excited to meet Borry, who was bigger than she anticipated. Students researched numerous nonprots before deciding to work with ited the couple and periodically lived with them in both cities, Chetcuti said. Vogt threatened some of girls with bodily harm to keep them from talking, police said. He is being charged with 11 felony counts including one count of aggravated sexual assault with a child, one count of continuous sexual abuse with a child and six counts of lewd acts with a child. Vogt also faces two counts of lewd acts with a minor ages 14 or 15 and one count of showing harmful matter of sexual content to a minor, according to the district attorneys ofce.

$59 million, depending on the needs. Thursday nights discussion will not only cover the possible facilities set up but which grades would be served. For example, the new school could be a traditional elementary school or serve fourth through fth graders throughout the district. At joint meetings between representatives of the school board and City Council, ideas for working together to solve the issue of growth have emerged. One possible solution thrown out was a land swap. Another option was to build where a school once was and sharing the

Students were eager to explain how the business unfolded. Mayah, who handled community relations, explained the students thought people with dogs would support buying the dog biscuits. Sales Associate Lexi said the students made samples at home. Olivia, who oversaw product development, described the process as easy to do. Parent help was needed to make the treats but Jack K. said parents were more than willing. Making the organic biscuits took about two weeks, said research team member Clare.
Police & Working K-9 Foundation. Louise Tully, vice president of the foundation, was on hand Tuesday explaining the vest is custom-made for Borry. The entrepreneurial spirit of the St. Matthew second grade students is quite an inspiration and we are honored to work with them to help protect our loyal police dogs, said Tully. Borry is trained in narcotics recognition, tracking and searching. Hes one of two San Mateo Police Department K-9s. Carben is already outtted with a donated ballistic vest. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, said Barker.
