cess to the Washington D.C. Press Club because of their gender. As a result, they formed their own organization with an initial membership of 17 women of achievement in letters, art, and music composition for networking and support. This was the birth of the National League of American Pen Women (NLAPW). Today, the group has grown to approximately 4,000 members nationwide who meet regularly to share current projects and gain inspiration from each other. Members of the National League of American

Pen Women are currently showcasing their talents at an exhibit titled “Art: Believe/Achieve” at the John O’Lague Galleria in Hayward City Hall. Their varied interests include dance choreography, textiles, watercolor and oil painting, poetry, mask making, and more. Natica Angilly, a worldrenowned choreographer, joined NLAPW over 20 years

ago. She specializes in poetic dance—choreographing dance to a thought provoking or famous poem. Through the years, Angilly began creating three-dimensional masks referencing poems represented by her dance company. Kazumi Cranney is a haiga painter. Haiga is a Japanese art form combining three traditional Japanese arts: Japanese calligraphy, written with black sumi ink; Haiku poems— short poems containing exactly 17 syllables (in Japanese) with a seasonal reference; and watercolor painting, which in this case utilizes special pigmented paints called gansai. Kazumi’s haiga paintings have been displayed throughout the Bay Area and her poems have been published in numerous publications. For Evelyn Glaubman, art has been a way to explore her

DIRECTOR RICHARD SANTOS SANTA CLARA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

ften people think that because they don’t live in a flood-prone area, they don’t need to consider flood safety. Not true. We forget that while we may not live in a floodplain, we may be driving through

the top 100 stimulus projects in the country. The partially completed project is receiving a total of $20.7 million in federal stimulus funds and will support an estimated 400 jobs. With these additional funds, the district will fully complete the section that stretches from Interstate 680 to South Babb Creek and part of the section that ends at Cunningham Park by December 2012. In addition to the large capital projects, every year the district

one as we go through our daily routine, be it on our way to work, a grocery store or a hospital. As result, we all need to know about flood safety. With this goal, the water district recently launched a multimedia “Chicken Little” flood awareness campaign that alerts Santa Clara County residents to the risks of flooding and provides flood-safety tips. The outreach campaign is part of the district’s much larger countywide effort to protect Santa Clara County residents and businesses from the devastating effects of flooding. During the year, the water district undertakes major creek modification projects as well as smaller stream maintenance work to reduce the intensity and the frequency of flooding in the county. One such project is the Lower Silver Creek project, which garnered national attention when the White House named it as one of

staff is out in the streams during summer and early fall clearing waterways, maintaining levees and repairing banks in preparation for the winter rains. In 2010, the water district completed 43 stream maintenance projects, removing 20,820 cubic yards of sediment and repairing 2,299 linear feet of banks or levees. Some of the stream maintenance projects include: stream bank repairs at Upper Penitencia Creek (Pine Hollow) and Sierra Creek (upstream of Hostetter); and sediment removal at Upper Penitencia Creek (south of Mabury), Los Coches (downstream of I-680), and Calera Creek (upstream I-680.) Besides reducing the risk of flooding, the district’s efforts also save county residents money on their annual flood insurance premiums. In October this year, the district completed its 2010 re-

certification process for the National Flood Insurance Program’s voluntary Community Rating System. Because of the district’s flood risk reduction efforts, people in flood prone areas can get a 5 percent discount or more on flood insurance premiums. As a lifelong resident of Alviso, I have experienced the havoc flooding can cause. That is why I encourage you to educate yourself about the risk of flooding and to be prepared. For flood-safety tips or to locate sandbag sites in your neighborhood, visit www.valleywater.org. To get flood-safety updates and tips on your mobile phone, text the word “WATER” to 84444. As always, I am available for questions or comments as your District 3 representative for Sunnyvale; Alviso; Milpitas; and the Berryessa/Alum Rock communities, east of Highway 101 to the Evergreen community area. Feel free to contact me at (408) 234-7707.

Obituary

Victor Lewis Dusio September 30, 1962 – November 25, 2010

Victor Lewis Dusio, age 48, of Fremont and Redding passed away November 25, 2010 in Fremont California. He is survived by his twin sons, Kevin and Mark, wife Kathleen and his mother Carol of Redding, sister Susan Ayala of Redding, brother Richard Jr. of Nevada City and

sisters Kathleen Dusio-Mankin, Diane (Teri) Dusio and Dana (Toni) Dusio, all of Redding. He was preceded in death by his father Richard. Victor was a Sales Engineer for 18 years with Bay Advanced Technologies of Fremont. He always seemed to

His gregarious personality made him many friends in his personal and professional life. Victor will always be remembered by his love of life and quick wit. He will be missed by many, but will always be in our hearts. The funeral was held at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church in Redding, CA, December 6, 2010.

obody wants to get sick, particularly during flu season. You can significantly improve your odds of staying well by washing your hands frequently and following other flu prevention tips. National Handwashing Awareness Week is observed this year from Dec. 6—12, and it’s a great opportunity to evaluate your handwashing practices, making sure they are as effective as possible. “Handwashing is the number one most effective means of preventing the spread of infectious disease,” says Mary Bowron, R.N., Washington Hospital’s Infection Control Coordinator. “Regular handwashing represents the best known and cheapest way of preventing the spread of disease.” One of Bowron’s roles in the hospital is to educate new employees about effective handwashing etiquette. “This has to be one of my biggest pushes as infection control coordinator,” she says. “During hospital orientation, the first thing we do is teach proper handwashing since it represents the backbone of infection control.” But proper handwashing techniques are just as important for the general population, according to Bowron. “People in the community often don’t realize the extent of germs on their hands,” she points out.

By following recommended hand hygiene guidelines, you can help keep your family and community healthier this year by reducing the spread of germs. If your hands are visibly soiled: • Wash them with warm water – if available – and soap, making sure to get each part of the hand (palms, back of hands, under fingernails, webbing between the fingers, etc.) all the way up to the wrists for 15 seconds. • After rinsing your hands, dry them with a paper towel and shut off the water with a paper towel. If you do not have access to soap and running water: • Apply an alcohol-based sanitizer, create friction for 15 seconds or until alcohol is dried, again making sure to rub all surfaces of each hand. Hand Sanitizer is Effective Bowron says that when used correctly, hand sanitizer is just as effective as washing with soap and water unless your hands are visibly soiled. For hand sanitizers to work, hands need to be free of visible dirt and you must also use the enough of the hand gel to get protection. It’s recommended you squirt an amount of gel about the size of a dime into your hands. Then rub vigorously so all sides of your hands get wet. Rub hands together until they are dry. Just as important as how to effectively wash your hands is when to wash them, Bowron says.

• Provide a place for your guests’ clothing and personal items. Clear out part of the closet (provide hangers), empty out a drawer or two, and provide a luggage stand or bench for the suitcase so it doesn’t have to be on the floor.

recently visited a friend in Portland and got to stay in her beautiful guest room for the weekend. My friend thought of everything—down to the last detail. What a wonderful host she was. She even left some chocolates (made in Oregon!) on the nightstand. It inspired me to write about guest rooms and how important it is to make your guests feel at home when they come to visit. Many of you will be hosting friends and family this holiday season, so I am writing this with you in mind. Perhaps some of these tips will contribute to a memorable and happy stay for you and your guests.

• Decorate your guest room. Often guests get relegated to the “spare room” with the leftover furniture and boxes piled up in the corner. Treat your guests to a neat and pretty room—paint the walls, purchase a new bedding ensemble, and remove miscellaneous items to the garage for the duration of their visit. My friend’s guest room was decorated with old black and white family photos and accessories from her parents and grandparents. The bed had a lovely white coverlet with matching pillow shams and a few colorful throw pillows. It was delightful to look at and the whole room felt very friendly and inviting.

• Include a reading lamp on the nightstand. This is such a nice touch, but sometimes overlooked. Make it so your guests don’t have to get up to turn off the light when they are ready to sleep. And a clock on the nightstand is always appreciated. • Include extra pillows and blankets. People can be quite particular about their pillows, so if possible, have a couple of extras in the closet of varying firmness and fullness. An extra blanket is always nice idea in case the nights are chilly. And also consider fleece sheets instead of regular sheets. Fleece sheets are really toasty and warm—I have some on my own bed and I love them.

December 10, 2010

These small touches will go a long way in making your guests feel welcome in your home. Happy holidays to all of you.

• Imitate the hotels and set up a “mini-bar” in the guest room with some bottled water, glasses, and perhaps a few snacks like nuts, fruit or granola bars. Some guests would not feel comfortable asking you or helping themselves to food in your kitchen, so provide a few things for them. Are they early risers? Leave the coffee pot ready to brew in the kitchen so they don’t have to wait for you to get up. • Guests sometimes forget basic necessities, so it’s always nice to provide an extra toothbrush, shampoo, hair dryer, nail file, razor, hand lotion, tissues, etc. Fill a basket with grooming products and leave it in the guest room or bathroom. It will be much appreciated.

BY BIFF JONES PHOTO COURTESY OF ALEX TAIN After almost a two-week delay, Mother Nature finally cooperated, allowing the finish of the Central Coast Section (CCS) girls tennis doubles tournament. It was long worth the wait for the No. 3-seeded duo of Vivian Nguyen and Christi Tain. On Monday, Dec. 6, the Milpitas High team topped the No. 2 seed from Monta Vista High (semifinals) and No. 6 seed from Stevenson School (finals) at Courtside Tennis Club in Los Gatos for the CCS title. Nguyen, a senior, and Tain, a sophomore, went into the tournament as champions from the Santa Clara Valley Athletic League El Camino Division. In the semifinals, they took on Wendi Kong and Ruri Kobayakawa of Monta Vista. Nguyen served first in the opening game which Milpitas won by winning the deuce point (CCS rules state first to four points in a game wins). In the next game, the Trojans broke the Matadors in four

straight for a quick 2-0 lead. Milpitas would go on to a 6-0 first-set victory. Nguyen again opening on her serve to start the second set, and it was soon 3-0 Milpitas before Kong finally held serve to cut the lead to 3-1. After going up 4-1 (winning another deuce game) on Nguyen’s serve, Monta Vista held serve again and the score was cut to 4-2. That would be the Matadors last hurrah as the Trojans closed out the match winning the last to games for a 6-0, 6-2 semifinal victory. In dominating the Matadors, the Trojans executed a solid plan in which the veteran Nguyen played back on all rallies while the young Tain patrolled the net whenever she could. Tain only went to the back line to serve or receive serves, then took the net at her first opportunity. With the semifinals behind them, the only thing standing in the way of the CCS crown was the duo of Logan Finnell and Anna Romeka of Pebble Beach’s Stevenson School. Finnell and Romeka topped top-seeded Stacy Yam and

Then in the fifth game of the set, the Trojans broke the trend as Nguyen held serve to give Milpitas a 3-2 lead. This was enough for Nguyen and Tain to take control of the set and close it out 6-2. Just a set away from a championship, the Trojans could smell it, and quickly took control of the second set by going up 4-0, not letting any game

get to deuce. However, Stevenson, not willing to give in, rallied to cut the lead to 4-2. Tain took the ball to serve, turned to her partner and said, “Let’s close this out.” Tain immediately put her team on the brink of a section title, winning her game at love to go up 5-2. But Finnel had one last gasp in serving the eighth game of the set as she also won at love with both of her last two points coming on aces to cut the lead to 5-3. However, Milpitas’ duo was not phased. Leading 40-30, Nguyen served. Her serve was

sent back, but Tain clinched the title with an overhead slam to give Milpitas a 6-2, 6-3 CCS final victory. Nguyen, the Trojans No. 1 singles player, went undefeated for the season, winning 26 consecutive singles and doubles matches combined. Tain, No. 2 at singles, became the youngest player to ever to win a Milpitas doubles title. Milpitas has now won a CCS individual girls tennis title in three straight years under coach Dong Pham. In 2008 and ’09, Katie Le won the singles title.

the team of Lauren Clark, Ariana Vargas, Rachel Wong, Rachel Wilhelm, Erione Abraham, Tiffany Toor and Allison Miranda went 3-0 en route to the title. To open the tournament, Tri-Valley Elite got an easy, early-morning victory against St. Raphael’s, outscoring their opponent by 27, winning 4316. An hour after wrapping up

that win, Elite was back on the floor battling One Nation from Las Vegas, Nev. One Nation’s girls were on average 20 percent taller and bigger than Tri-Valley and controlled the boards early on, jumping to an early 6-0 lead all generated from offensive recontinued on page 15

In the second half One Nation built another lead and then began to stall, simply passing the ball around. Elite turned up the pressure on defense, causing One Nation to turn the ball over several times and allowing Tri-Valley to take the lead. It ended 33-27 in favor of Elite. In order to guarantee a firstplace finish, Tri-Valley Elite needed to get a win over Our Lady of Angels. OLA was not willing to comply with this idea and began the game by driving past the Elite

players, putting home a number of 3-pointers. At half time Elite was down by six, 23-17. Noticing the discouragement in the girls faces, coaches Clark and Wong gave a halftime pep talk that focused on different defensive and offensive sets along with encourag-

ing the girls to believe that they could win. They responded. Elite came out focused and blew the game open by shutting down OLA’s offense, allowing only six points in the second half. At the close of the game, Elite triumphed with a 21-point win, 50-29.

SUBMITTED BY PAULA LEONG New Hope Community Church is sponsoring a marionette version of The Nutcracker as a gift to the community this Christmas season. The string puppet Nutcracker Suite features traditional music and beautiful

country performing with my family. The marionette Nutcracker was packed in storage for many years until my daughter and her husband rebuilt and restored the show to its original charm in 2008. I am very happy to brush up on my puppet skills and present this show as a gift to the community on

handcrafted marionette puppets performed by The National Puppet Theatre that has been creating and performing marionette shows throughout the country since 1950. “My family started the National Puppet Theatre a few years before I was born,” says Rev. Steve Norman. Making puppets and doing puppet shows was just a normal part of growing up in the Norman family. My earliest memory is being set down for a nap in a open puppet trunk as a baby. While most children went on a vacation during the summer months, I was traveling the

Dec 18th at New Hope Community Church.” This presentation is sure to capture audiences of all ages. Popcorn and drinks will be offered for a donation to support Clean Water Wells in Africa. More background information on the National Puppet Theatre may be found at www.nationalpuppets.com. The Nutcracker: marionette presentation Saturday, Dec 18 2 p.m. New Hope Community Church 2190 Peralta Blvd., Fremont (510) 739-0430 newhopefremont.org

SUBMITTED BY NASA NEWSROOM PHOTOS BY JOHN J. SCHULTZ NASA is providing up to $20 million over the next five years to support a national program to inspire student interest

in science, technology, and mathematics with a focus on robotic technology.

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

Funding is part of a cooperative agreement with the foundation For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST), a nonprofit organization in Manchester, New Hampshire. FIRST provides students the opportu-

nity to engage with government, industry, and university experts for hands-on, realistic

exposure to engineering and technical professions. “This is the largest NASAfunded student program geared toward robotics activities,” said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. “For the next five years, approximately 25,000 students across the country will not only learn from our nation’s best and brightest, but also compete and have fun at the same time.” The centerpiece of the program is the annual FIRST Robotics Competition. During more than 45 regional competitions, teams of high school students have six weeks to build a robot using an identical kit of parts. There are dimension and weight limitations and other technical restrictions, but teams can determine the look and function of the robots. Regional competitions culminate with an international championship in April.

The robots must be sturdy because of frequent contact between the machines. “This program has had a direct impact on our ability to mentor U.S. students and help them consider technical careers,” said Ed Weiler, associate administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington. “Supporting this program is critical to developing scientists and engineers for future U.S. space exploration.”

and managed from NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California, competitively selected FIRST from the candidates. “In addition to financial support, there is considerable time investment and commitment on the part of the NASA engineers and scientists who work with the students,” said Solar System Program Executive Dave Lavery of NASA continued on page 31

traught at the loss of her loyal companion. The companionship, loyalty and intelligence of a pet cannot be underestimated. People know the true story of Greyfriars Bobby, the Skye terrier who guarded the grave of his master, John Gray, in Greyfriars Kirkyard (in Scotland) for 14 years before passing away himself in 1872. They are also familiar with author Eric Knight’s Lassie, the fictional collie featured in the short story Lassie Come-Home which was published in the Saturday Evening Post in 1938 and as a full-length novel in 1940. Similarly, Jack London’s Call of the Wild features Buck, a Saint Bernard/sheepdog, as the main protagonist. These stories were worthy of the silver screen.

In November, Hayward residents Darryl Steen, his wife and daughter were saved by their dog Diamond. The canine family member’s barking awoke the household in the middle of the night. They realized something was amiss because Diamond seldom barks. They smelled smoke, discovered the living room ablaze and were lucky to escape with minor burns. They bear the physical scars of their ordeal and still wear some protective garments but are thankful to be alive. The 2010 Santa Paws Parade is the return of a Hayward tradition. Originally organized by the Lions Club, pet parades began in the city in 1925 and attracted families from far and wide. Hayward’s annual parade became the largest in Alameda County with prizes for categories such as Cutest Pet and Best Pet/Owner Look-Alike. The Hayward Pet Parade was a community event that families anticipated with excitement every year. “In 2007, we had a much smaller parade than today’s event but the grand parades stopped in the 1950s. This year’s organizers hope an annual pet parade will bring back families to the Downtown as part of the Downtown Area revitalization. The Santa Paws Parade is the latest addition to the popular Light Up the Season tree lighting ceremony in the Historic

Downtown Hayward,” explained Gloria Ortega who galvanized support for the 2010 event and is the city’s Redevelopment Project Manager. “The Parade raised approximately $2,000 to support homeless animals. It’s still possible to donate to the Santa Paws Fund which will benefit the Hayward Animal Shelter by visiting www.FirstGiving.com/SantaPawsParade2010. The monies will supplement the Shelter’s funds to buy blankets, pillows and pay for operations the homeless animals need to improve their quality of life,” concluded Ortega. The winner of each category and all entrants received rosettes. Visitors and parade participants were entertained by tap-dancing Christmas trees, had their pictures taken with Santa, shopped at the pet boutique, met Sparky the Fire Dog, petted pets from the Hayward Animal Shelter and were able to adopt. Children enjoyed pony rides in front of Hayward Public Library. For more information about animal adoption and to donate, visit www.FirstGiving.com/SantaPawsParade2010 and www.hayward-ca.gov. Alternatively, call Hayward Animal Shelter at (510) 293-7200 ext 7 or visit the Shelter at 16 Barnes Court (at Soto Road and Jackson Street), Hayward.

score still tied 0-0, the head referee approached both coaches to tell them that there would be no overtime. If the game was tie at the end of the regulation, it would immediately go to “the mark” for penalty kicks to decide the champion. After what seemed to be only a couple of minutes, the referee blew his whistle, and it was time for penalties. At an age where making three out of five shots would normally secure a victory, both teams

made four out of five. With neither team wanting to give up what they battled so hard for the previous 50 minutes – not to mention the three preliminary matches – they were now into sudden death PKs. The No. 6 shooter from both teams would not be denied. With rain and wind still swirling and darkness setting in, the No. 7 shooter for Salinas could not get the ball by the Gladiator keeper. The Gladiators would not let the opportunity pass them by. It

was a shot that beat the Stingray keeper, into the right side of the net that would send the Gladiators home with the first-place hardware. Congratulations to the Stingrays for a hard-fought battle and to the champion Gladiators- Hayley A, Maria C., Jessica F, Ariana H, Kiran H, Lizzie H, Saaniya K, Abby M, Arianna N, Pavani R.

– even more often if you can. Eating together provides a wonderful opportunity to talk with your children about their day and show them that they are your top priority. Get kids involved by giving them age-appropriate tasks like setting the table, tossing the salad, and cleaning up. - Open a book daily. Help your child’s imagination soar by reading favorite stories together. Point out fun things you see in picture books and let your toddler turn the pages. - Host a weekly family fun night. On cold or rainy days, turn off the TV and computer, and get creative. Set up a row of chairs and role-play as a bus driver or train conductor; enjoy a game of musical chairs; or use everyday items like cardboard boxes, glue, and cotton balls to create pieces of art. - Take a field trip. Visit the zoo, local museums, and libraries to learn about animals, interesting historical facts, and other educational topics. Make sure to call ahead and find out if there’s a kids’ day, and ask if free or dis-

counted tickets are available. - Go outside for physical activity. Go for a walk, play catch, ride bikes around the neighborhood or visit the park. It’s a chance to spend time together as well as squeeze in a healthy dose of active play! - Make every moment count. Above all, use every moment together to learn from and listen to your child, even when taking care of every day errands. Young children love to help – take your kids grocery shopping and let them pick out fruits and vegetables while you ask about favorite foods. When driving, point to colors and shapes, and ask your child to count trees or read simple signs. Remember, spending quality time with your children this holiday season is a priceless gift – your time and attention cost nothing and mean everything. For more information on promoting your child’s healthy development, contact FIRST 5 Santa Clara County at (408) 260-3700 or www.first5kids.org and

Headquarters. During the past 16 years, the RAP has issued approximately $40 million to academic and nonprofit organizations across the nation to stimulate intellectual capability in fields tied to robotics engineering. All 10 NASA centers participate in the RAP by contributing technology expertise, funding, and other resources. NASA is the largest organization involved with FIRST and has participated since 1995. In 1999, NASA and First signed a memorandum of agreement to cooperatively expand the availability of technology development, education, and inspiration programs to students throughout the country. U.S. entrepreneur Dean Kamen founded FIRST in 1989 to encourage youth to become leaders in science and technology.

e all have such busy schedules that it can be a challenge to find time to spend together as a family. But quality time is important because when parents learn and play with their children every day, it boosts a child’s self-esteem and helps kids develop positive relationships. Even 10 to 30 minutes of one-on-one time per day is a good start, as long as it’s part of a regular routine. Young children will benefit from the love and attention they receive during these precious moments. This holiday season, FIRST 5 Santa Clara County encourages parents as well as grandparents and caregivers to give the gift of quality time. By planning educational and nurturing activities everyone can enjoy together, families can set up healthy routines that last through the holidays and well into the New Year. - Start a tradition. Plan a family meal at least once a week
