BY DAVE O’HARA A milestone will soon be reached for a local food favorite, when the Rotary Club of Mission San Jose serves its renowned Linguica burger on Saturday and Sunday, August 6 and 7, at the Fremont Festival of the Arts in midtown Fremont. This will be the twenty-fifth year this entry in the spectrum of innovative foods is offered. You will likely see a crowd gathered around the stand at Paseo Padre and Capitol, where the aroma of spicy meats and grilled onions are sure to whet your appetite. “The first year we cooked the customary Linguica sausage, sliced lengthwise and grilled” says sous chef Tom Handley, “but to cook it through meant burning the edges, and the method was labor intensive.” That is when Rotarian Todd Scott dreamed up the current taste treat, which features having the sausages made nine feet long and six inches in diameter. After curing, the skin is pealed away, and the long tube of meat is sliced into disks, five to the pound. These ‘tukes’ are grilled and resemble hamburgers, hence the Linguica burger. They are placed on a hamburger bun and voila, an easy to fix and easy to eat sandwich invented right here. A cartoon character invented for this product, Len Guisa, describes the product as: “Succulent disks of prime Linguica cooked to a glorious golden brown on a deglazed grill kept warm since dawn, served with splendidly sautéed onions on

Back-to-school sales and dwindling vacation days might remind us that summer is creeping to a close, but Union City keeps the fun alive with its Summer Park and Playground Carnival. Held for over 25 years, the carnival is the annual end of year event for all the participants of Leisure Services’ Summer Day Camps, and has hosted between 300 to 350 kids. Seven camps are offered for kids, ages three through 16, includcontinued on page 5

a high loft bun made just for the event and served with courtesy by the Rotary Club of Mission San Jose. Add this taste delight to the zany and mirthful reception at this emporium of epicurean treats, and you have an experience not to be missed.” Since the Linguica is prepared by special order, “the nutritional elements are controlled without reducing the fine taste,” says Handley. “However, the meat is so lean that the grills must be oiled before the first ‘burgers’ go on, to prevent sticking.” The Linguica burger has caught on so well that several brands can be found at local markets in areas of Portuguese immigrant concentration, like the Tri-Cities. Mayor Bob Wasserman has been a grill master for most of the 25-year history. “While it is not exactly health food, the Linguica burger is a treat which should not be missed,” says the Mayor. “We hope to see you all at the corner of Paseo Padre and Capitol, just a block from City Hall, during the festival.”

Community leaders sought for oversight The Ohlone Community College District is seeking interested individuals to serve on the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee with other community leaders to oversee the implementation of the Measure G Bond program. Measure G is a $349 million bond measure, which authorizes funding for needed repairs, upgrades, and construction projects primarily on Ohlone College’s Fremont campus, passed by voters in November 2010. All bond measures for educational facilities in the state are required to have an oversight committee comprised of independent citizens that review and approve expenditures of bond funds to ensure that they are spent according to the provisions of the bond. The Citizen’s Bond Oversight Committee is appointed by the Ohlone College Board of Trustees to work with the District to ensure that Measure G funds are expended only for school facilities. The committee’s duties are to inform the public of District’s expenditures of Measure G proceeds, review expenditure reports by the District as well as present the Board of Trustees with reports outlining their activities and conclusions regarding the expenditure of Measure G bond proceeds. The composition of the committee must include representatives from a senior citizens organization, a taxpayers association, a student, a business person, and at least one general community member (at large). All appointments are made by the Board of Trustees. Interested individuals should fill out an application at http://www.ohlone.edu/org/bond/application.html. Applications can be mailed to Ohlone Community College District, Administrative Services Office, 43600 Mission Blvd., Fremont, CA 94539 or faxed to 510-659-6045. For more information, contact the Administrative Services Office at (510) 659-7307 or go to www.ohlone.edu/go/bondapply.

Kids enjoy games, nature activities, sports, arts and crafts, and other fun activities and field trips, creating an educational and memorable summer. “It’s the time everybody comes together as a whole,” says Recreation Supervisor Marissa Vera of the carnival. But you don’t have to have attended a camp to take part; the public is invited to join in and visit “The Final Fun-tier.” The afternoon will be filled with all things space related, and kids can come in costumes if they wish.

The Great Race for Clean Air is a friendly competition between Bay Area employers to encourage employees to take transit, carpool, walk or bike to work. "Employees are more likely to travel in such fashions when it is encouraged at work,” said Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Air District. “The Great Race for Clean Air is a fun, competitive way to improve air quality, reduce traffic and save money while giving Bay Area commuters an opportunity to try alternatives to driving alone.” Registration for employers is open and runs through August 15, 2012, at www.SpareTheAir.org. Participating employees will automatically be entered into weekly random drawings for incentive prizes such as gift cards to local merchants.

Test the might of your feet in a game of Space Balls (soccer), take part in Space Wars (slip and slide), or join a full fledged Space Odyssey (relay race). “It lets you know what the community offers,” says Vera, adding, “It’s a safe and fun event that all ages can enjoy. It’s a nice way to close out the summer.” And while summer programs are coming to a close, Union City Leisure Services offers a great variety of activities for kids and adults year round. Visit them at www.ci.union-city.ca.us to check out what your next adventure will be.

From September 1 through October 31, thousands of Bay Area commuters will compete against other company and agency teams to find alternatives to commuting to work alone – such as ridesharing, vanpooling, biking, walking or taking transit. At the conclusion of the Great Race, one employer in each county will be recognized for the highest CO2 savings per capita. In addition, employers in small, mid-size and large employer categories in each county will be recognized for achieving the highest rate of employee participation. Great Race winners will be announced in November 2011. The Great Race for Clean Air is sponsored by the Air District, the regional agency responsible for protecting air quality in the Bay Area, with support from 511 Rideshare.

Baseball fundraiser SUBMITTED BY DAVID GODINEZ SUBMITTED BY KRISTEN DICKSON With the start of school quickly approaching and students turning their sights back to the classroom, Half Price Books is encouraging kids to bring in their completed “Feed Your Brain” summer reading logs now through August 7 to receive a $5 Back-to-School Bucks reward. Kids 14 and under were encouraged to read at least 15 minutes a day during June and July. If kids read at least 600 minutes during the summer, they could bring in their completed reading log to their local store to receive their reward. Half Price Books will also award one top reader per age group, per store with a Top Reader prize, a $20 Half Price Books gift card. In addition, Half Price Books will also reward those who took part in the Borders “Double Dog Dare Challenge” Children’s Summer Reading Program. Participants can also turn in completed reading logs to their local Half Price Books in the case that Borders, Borders Express or Waldenbooks is unable to honor their program terms. Borders logs need to be turned in by August 7 and will not be eligible for the Top Reader prize. All Back-to-School Bucks expire August 31. As the summer winds down, parents can continue to help kids feed their brains through books, magazines and newspaper articles that fit their interests. By providing reading materials related to a favorite subject, they’ll learn more about that topic and get the added bonus of a bigger and better vocabulary. For more information and tips visit www.hpb.com/.

We are a local travel ball baseball team comprised of 12-year-old boys, mostly from Union City; we rely on fundraising to keep the program running.

he Tobacco Free Coalition of Santa Clara County and Community Advocate Teens of Today, in partnership with the Santa Clara County Public Health Department, has released the final results of the “2010 – 2011 Community’s Health on Tobacco Report Card.” The Report Card, which grades all cities and the county on tobacco control policies, is in its fifth release and is funded through California Proposition 99. It is a tool to monitor and encourage cities in Santa Clara County to strengthen their tobacco-control policies through enforcement and compliance efforts. “Safeguarding our children from the negative consequences of tobacco is critical,” said Santa Clara County Supervisor Ken Yeager, who led an effort to pass a series of comprehensive tobacco

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

control ordinances. “Tobacco retail licensing has proven effective in nearly 100 communities across California. I encourage all our cities to get on board.” Some of the findings of the “2010 – 2011 Community’s Health on Tobacco Report Card” indicate that most Santa Clara County cities have taken significant strides in prioritizing tobacco prevention efforts in the face of budget reductions and declining resources. For the second consecutive year, the cities of Mountain View, Saratoga and Milpitas lead the county with an “A” grade for monitoring and enforcing laws and policies governing the sale and advertising of tobacco products in their communities. This year, for the first time, Santa Clara County joins these three cities for adopting a strong tobacco retail licensing (TRL) ordinance for the unincorporated area of the county. In January 2011, the City of San

Jose also adopted a similar policy and improved its grade from “F” to “B.” In November 2010, the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors adopted a strong tobacco retail licensing ordinance requiring retailers in the unincorporated area of the county to obtain an annual license to sell tobacco as well as restricting tobacco sales near schools. Currently, many cities in the county are working to strengthen their tobacco control policies, including adopting a similar policy as the county. “Our primary goal as health advocates is to prevent kids from starting to smoke by keeping tobacco products out of their hands,” says Martin Fenstersheib, County Health Officer. “There is also great support among Santa Clara County voters to prevent access of tobacco products from youth. In a 2011 public opinion poll, 88 percent of voters supported a tobacco retail licensing

Page 11

ordinance and 74 percent supported no tobacco sales within 1,000 feet of schools.” This year, the Tobacco Report Card grading criteria was revamped to focus more on jurisdictions efforts on enforcement and compliance of current and new tobacco laws. The report card also focuses on the following areas: adoption and enforcement of a tobacco retail licensing (TRL) or a conditional use permit (CUP), tobacco advertising sales and display, and preventing youth access to tobacco. Jurisdictions that had either a TRL or CUP were given additional points on their grade which earned them higher marks than cities without a similar policy in place. Extra credit was also given to cities and the county for extra enforcement, community education outreach (such as school ed-

ucation), follow-up on complaints and attending tobacco-related trainings, an essential component for promoting lasting policy solutions. Youth decoy operations were conducted along with city police departments in 12 out of the 13 cities, plus Santa Clara County, reaching 364 tobacco retailers. Los Altos Hills and Monte Sereno were not included as they currently have no tobacco retailers within their jurisdictions. Currently, the illegal sales rate to minors in the county is 17.3 percent as reported by the California STAKE Act. To view a copy of all cities and the county grades, a list of policies by jurisdiction and more information about Tobacco Retail Licensing, visit www.sccphd.org/tobacco-prevention or call (408) 793-2700.

BY DAVE CORTESE If you speak to anyone on the street, there will be an almost unanimous consensus that most minors under the age of 18 should not be placed in adult jail facilities where they would interact with hardened criminals and witness unsavory activities. This viewpoint was actually memorialized with the passing of the 1974 Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Act prohibiting the placement of youth in adult jails except under very limited circumstances so that the young minds of juveniles would not be influenced by older offenders. It is with similar reasoning

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

that, at my request, the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors has adopted a policy which states that minors 12years-old and younger, should not be placed in Juvenile Hall. The county should develop alternatives for the safe, temporary placement of children 12 and under who commit a serious crime. In a congregate care setting such as Juvenile Hall, opportunities are numerous for impressionable young children to model their behavior through older peers who have often been through the system many times and developed negative behaviors. As a result, rather than providing positive role

models, Juvenile Hall actually increases the chance that the young children will become repeat offenders. That is not to say that children should not be punished for committing serious crimes; children of that age are easily influenced and the County should help guide them towards being a good citizen. Too often, young children who commit crimes are instantly labeled as life-long criminals when, with the right atmosphere and mentoring, they can learn right from wrong. By placing young children into Juvenile Hall, there is a risk of further aggravating any trauma these children have al-

ready experienced. According to a study by the County’s Juvenile Justice Commission, 90% of children under 13 years old, placed in Juvenile Hall from 2007 to 2009, had a history of trauma or child abuse, a diagnosed mental illness or an absent parent. Rather than correcting their behavior, the experience of being locked up will most likely make it even harder to educate these youth on how to become good citizens. As an alternative, the county is developing therapeutic foster homes providing a more constructive experience for children in a nurturing environment with a greater likelihood of a positive outcome. It is believed

that this policy is the first of its kind in the nation. I have asked Santa Clara County to explore working with neighboring counties to develop a policy of shared placements appropriate for children 12 years old and younger who commit a serious crime. Through this program, we can break the cycle of violence and steer young children towards a path of success. If you would like to learn more about this policy or would like to know how you can help, please call me at 408) 299-5030 or email: dave.cortese@bos.sccgov.org.

AP Wire Service SAN DIEGO (AP), Aug 03 - A federal appeals court has ruled against Christian groups who challenged a nondiscrimination policy at California state universities. On Tuesday, a panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that the policy doesn't violate the constitution. A lawyer for the groups told the San Diego Union-Tribune that he's disappointed. The policy says officially recognized campus groups can't discriminate by factors such as religion and sexual orientation. A Christian fraternity and a sorority at San Diego State University (http://bit.ly/q6kawm) sued in 2005. The groups, which are restricted to Christian members, argued the policy violated their religious freedom. The appeals court disagreed but said there was concern about whether the policy is evenly applied to all groups. The case was sent back to a lower court to decide that issue. --Information from: The San Diego Union-Tribune, http://www.signonsandiego.com

Scholarship Recipient Says Parents Are His Inspiration for Doing Well

lass of 2011 valedictorian Mihir Jain, graduate of Mission San Jose High School, paired strong grades with a slew of extracurricular activities to gain acceptance into the University of Pennsylvania, his college of choice. After applying for different scholarships, Mihir received some good news. He had been chosen to receive the 2011 Don Pickinpaugh Memorial Scholarship, awarded annually to a Washington Hospital employee’s dependent. “I felt really honored when I found out I was given the award, and I was very thankful and grateful that they chose me,” Mihir says. This fall, Mihir plans to major in business at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and also take classes in computer science. “In the third grade I did a book report, and I chose Bill Gates as a hero to me,” Mihir explains of his planned career path of entrepreneurship. “His journey with Microsoft changed how people work and play on a daily basis, and I’ve always been inspired by that and I hope to create something in those fields.” Parental inspiration Mihir says he’s also had a lot of other great role models closer to home. “I can’t choose one person,” he says. “Both of my parents have always been an inspiration and are constantly a source of support and guidance. I have obviously been changed for the better by them, as well as some great teachers at Mission San Jose High School.”

With a number of school and extracurricular activities to his name—including captain of the soccer team and class president, as well as honor society memberships—Mihir says one in particular stands out.

Washington Hospital has several other scholarship opportunities that are available to the greater community. Visit www.whhs.com/community/scholarship for more information.

“I’ve been involved with Boy Scouts since first grade and it’s been huge part of my life. Achieving the rank of Eagle Scout remains my proudest accomplishment,” he says. “I’ve learned life lessons and leadership skills that will stick with me forever.” Finally, Mihir says he wants to thank the WHEA Board for aiding his academic future. “I just wanted to thank WHEA for the scholarship that

District family, visit www.whhs.com/community/sc holarship. Doing good in the community The Washington Hospital Employees’ Association, the volunteer-based organization within Washington Hospital, offers its $2,000 scholarship annually in hopes of helping local students achieve their academic goals. “WHEA sees the scholarship is an investment in the community,” says Washington Community Health Resource Library Coordinator and WHEA President Lucy Castillo. “The high level of applicants we receive makes it so tough to pick one, but this is definitely a way for hospital employees to support our community and our young adults who are majoring in anything from the arts to science to history. “Having that opportunity to invest in the community is phenomenal. If it weren’t for our due paying members, this wouldn’t be possible. For a dollar a pay period and people can see a good investment.” Through employee dues, WHEA organizes activities— like family fun days, wine tasting and trips to local sports games—and also dedicates time and funding to the community. “We’re able to donate to different charities like our local senior centers, ABODE Services, Safe Alternatives to Violent Environments (SAVE)—there’s quite a bit of charities we can do each year,” Castillo says. For community members who want to get involved, WHEA also has several opportunities for them as well, she says.

“We have three drives per year,” according to Castillo. “There’s the sock and undy drive where all the items go to ABODE Services, which takes place in March through April. We have bins in our cafeteria and lobby of 2500 Mowry Avenue. If someone from the community wanted to donate toiletries, underwear or similar items, they can.” WHEA also recently launched its back-to-school supplies drive that runs through Aug. 19. There are bins available for donations on the ground floor of the hospital down the hall from the cafeteria, and also in the Community Health Resource Library located at 2500 Mowry Avenue. “These back-to-school items help children at SAVE as well as some of the students of families that are seeking counseling through SAVE,” Castillo says. Then, coming up in September, Castillo says WHEA will also hold its warmth drive for winter clothing items to help families at SAVE or ABODE Services. Drop-off locations will be in lobby of Washington West, 2500 Mowry Avenue and in the cafeteria on the ground floor of the hospital. “We also have a food drive in November and a toy drive in November and December. These are all great opportunities for the community to participate along with WHEA.” Get involved If you would like to become a volunteer at Washington Hospital, visit http://www.whhs.com/volunteer/ for more information or call (510) 791-3465.

BY ALAN L. OLSEN, CPA, MBA (TAX) MANAGING PARTNER GREENSTEIN, ROGOFF, OLSEN AND CO., LLP Lemonade by the pool, watching firework shows and soaking in the sun are not the only thing that you should plan on doing this summer. With a little tax planning, your summer fun can bring you a pocket full of dollars in tax savings. Here are some summer savings tax planning tips that you may benefit from: 1. Cool off with an energy efficient air conditioning system in your home. Is it getting a little hot at home? If you install an energy efficient air conditioning system in your home, you can claim up to 10% of all qualifying expenses with the Residential Energy Property Credit up to $500[1]. The energy efficient improvements must have been made to your primary residence. Make sure to save your receipts and Manufacturer Certification Statment for your personal records. Also, you will need to file IRS form 5695 with your 2011 Tax Return in order to claim the credit. 2. Give your kids summer jobs by hiring them. Are your kids looking for summer jobs? Put them on the company payroll of your family business. When you employ your children, for 2011 you can pay them up to $5,800 in salary free from Federal tax[2]. The “kiddie” tax doesn’t apply to wages, so children under age 18 get this tax break, too[3]. Have your children put $5,000 into a Roth IRA, where it will compound tax-free over time[4]. When the money is left in the

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

account until they turn 59 ?, they will never have to pay out any tax or penalties on that money or its earnings. If your business is not incorporated, and the children are under age 18, neither you, as employer, nor your children will owe Social Security or Medicare tax on their wages. 3. Take your summer vacation in an electric vehicle. If you purchase an electric vehicle this summer, you can take a tax credit for up to 10% the cost of the vehicle up to $2500. This purchase must have been made between February 18, 2009 and December 31, 2011. The Internal Revenue Service states that “To qualify, a vehicle must be either a low speed vehicle propelled by an electric motor that draws electricity from a battery with a capacity of 4 kilowatt hours or more or be a two- or three-wheeled vehicle propelled by an electric motor that draws electricity from a battery with the capacity of 2.5 kilowatt hours[5].” 4. Consider a vacation home this summer. Taxpayers are allowed to claim deductions for their primary residence and one vacation or second home. In the case of the main residence, tax breaks are usually limited to mortgage interest and property tax deductions. However, there are more deductions available when you own a second or vacation home. For more information see www.groco.com. 5. Deduct Summer Day Camp Expenses for your Children. If your children are attending a summer day camp this summer, those fees may be tax deductible. With the Child and Dependent Care Credit, you can deduct child care expenses that you paid while you work or

Page 17

looked for work. The credit can cover up to 35% of qualifying expenses up to $3000[6]. So, remember if you plan on spending a few dollars this summer, double check to see if your expenses will qualify you for a tax credit or deduction.

BY GARY VAN DEN HEUVEL PHOTOS BY MIKE HEIGHTCHEW Chabot College played host to the cream of the crop of local youth swimmers – more than 1100 of them – who competed in the East Bay Swim League (EBSL) championships on Saturday, July 30. Among the 12 teams, representing all age groups from under six up to age eighteen, it was head coach Paul Pierce’s San Leandro Drowning Darryls who emerged as the league champions, finishing

with a total score of 4652.33. It was the Drowning Darryls’ thirteenth title in their history, which is the league record. The Mission Valley Barracudas finished second (4260.33 points), followed in third place by the Newark Bluefins (3404.50). EBSL is a league started over 30 years ago to help develop the love of swimming in the East Bay. The purpose of the EBSL is to provide young swimmers with an opportunity for summer recreational swimming competition, in an atmosphere that fosters sportsmanship, team spirit, cooperation, and respect. It was started in the Hayward area, but has spread to Southern Fremont, Newark, San Leandro, and Castro Valley. New EBSL records were set in three events. Mission Valley won the boys age 13-14 200-yard Medley Relay with a time of 1:52.6.

The Seals Swim Club (Fremont) took down the Male 13-14 50yard Butterfly (new record time of 25.23), and Newark’s Jonathan Mui eclipsed the old mark in the Male 11-12 50-yard Butterfly with a time of 28.36. The Bluefins celebrated team records by Emily Loaisiga (Female 910 25 Fly, time of 15.76), Victoria Gerome (Female 15-18 50 Fly, 28.00), as well as in three different relays. Newark’s top performers on the hot, sunny afternoon were

Jonathan Mui (134.25 points), Emily Loaisiga (127.5), Isabelle Loaisiga (127.0), Joshua Tsai (122.0), Emmanuel Ngbemeneh (111.0), and Victoria Gerome (110.0). If the turnout at Chabot is any indication, competitive swimming is booming in this part of the Bay Area. While some kids are working on their batting and fielding, and

others are perfecting their technique on their newest video games, there are whole communities of kids who are obsessing over how to beat their personal best in the swimming pool. 14-year-old Christopher Chan of the Newark team, whose specialties are the backstroke and breaststroke, and who competed in the Individual Medley, is a seasoned veteran of competitive swimming; he’s been involved in the sport for six years. Despite his talent and love for swimming, Chan is a well-rounded athlete. He also listed baseball and basketball as his other favorite sports. When asked what sport he would choose – baseball or swimming -- next spring when he is a freshman at Newark Memorial High School, Chan’s answer was unexpected, yet not unusual for today’s multi-tasking young athlete. After a moment of thought, he said, “I’ll probably play golf.” The Internet home of the East Bay Swimming League can be found at ebsl.org. All registration information and league news can be found there.

f you have ever watched the television show “Whose line is it anyway?” you know that great improvisational comedy is an experience never to be passed over. Fremont’s own Made Up Theatre offers a unique and excellent opportunity to see great “improv” every Saturday night. Made Up Theatre offers various types of improv shows, in which performers play fun games, perform spontaneous forty-minute plays, make-up sketches on the spot, and even improvise full length musicals… all to the sounds of sidesplitting laughter from the audience. Since opening in January of this year, Made Up Theatre has grown by leaps and bounds, with many new offerings for people of all ages. “We are coming along really well,” says co-founder Sean Taylor. The progress he speaks of includes moving to weekly shows and their next show sold-out. The group at Made Up The-

atre came together as Five Play Improv, now one of three unique shows offered; a group of “five friends who just wanted to play together.” “That’s what’s so compelling about [us]. Two minutes into a thirtyminute based on a simple suggestion from the audience, Bobby and I can know how it’s going to end,” Taylor says of co-founder Bobby August. “We’re the best of friends; a tight-knit group,” says August, and their chemistry and knowledge of each other makes them all the more fun to watch. The full-length plays and musicals they perform make the group one-of-a-kind – not only in Fremont, but in the greater Bay Area where very few other groups do what is called “longform” improv on a regular basis. “It is very difficult to make stories that are consistent, and understandable,” says Taylor, “But we like to challenge ourselves and have the audience enjoy it the whole time,” finishes August. “Our goal is to have what is as good as a play that’s been scripted, but is totally made-up in front of the

audience, and that’s what we’re known for,” he adds. Their long-form improv can be seen in their show “Showcase” on the second and fourth Saturdays of every month at 8 p.m. In addition to comedy shows, the theatre also offers improv classes. Three levels of classes are available; students who completed the second level recently performed a show for friends and family. “It was really great,” says Taylor. “These were people with no improv experience and they learned so much in fifteen weeks; doing what we are doing on stage.” Made Up Theatre is also hosting a free two-hour improv class on August 31 for anybody who wants to come by and have some fun. “People get to break away from their everyday routine and come out and be people who aren’t themselves,” says Taylor. According to August, there are people who want to become professional improvisers, but notes, “There are also a large percentage of people who want to learn it to become better at talking in front of people or be more open with people,” and improv encourages that. “It’s a break from a daily routine, and they can let loose and have fun.” In addition to classes and shows, the group will be performing in this year’s San Francisco Improv Festival from

August 18 to 27. The festival brings together improvisational groups from across the country to perform in their own styles and methods in front of audi-

ences and the other groups over two weeks. Made Up Theatre’s Five Play Improv group performed last year in the festival and describe it as a great experience. This year, they are paired with a group from Chicago, “Happy Karaoke Fun Time!” who do musical improvisation based on popular karaoke tracks. Both groups will perform August 19 at Eureka Theater in San Francisco; tickets are available online. “We want Made Up Theatre to become big in the Bay Area,” says Taylor. And from converting a completely unadorned, white-walled space into a blackbox theater to bringing improv to audiences through weekly shows and being voted Best Comedy Theatre in the annual

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

SUBMITTED BY ERIC WAGNER California’s prosperity has long depended on the quality of its workforce, yet California’s high schools are falling short when it comes to preparing students for college and career. Indeed, just three quarters of students earn a high school diploma. Among those who do, few have completed the coursework needed to provide genuine college and career options. Recently, The Education Trust—West released a new report, “Unlocking Doors and Expanding Opportunity: Moving Beyond the Limiting Reality of College and Career Readiness in California High Schools,” based on six years of work in school districts across California. The report finds that only five in ten graduates were college-ready in the districts studied and presents data finding that only one in ten graduates were both college and career-ready. Latino, African-American, and low-income students fared far worse than their more advantaged peers. The report calls for a more integrated and equitable approach to college and career preparation so that high schools serve to open doors to both college and career options for all students. The report examines barriers to college and career readiness. It finds that many students are barred from college eligibility because of high school grading practices, poor articulation between the elementary, middle, and high school levels and the persistence of tracking students. The report reveals that many students leave high school without completing career pathways because Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses are insufficiently sequenced to foster real workplace skill development. Furthermore, the report surfaces disturbing equity issues, demonstrating that students of color and lowincome students are disproportionately tracked into less-rigorous academic courses and CTE classes, whereas their more affluent peers are more frequently tracked into college preparatory courses. Indeed, the report reveals that the opportunity to take the coursework necessary to apply for college is not offered to all

students and is offered at far lower rates to Latino and African-American students. “Districts need to make a commitment to equity in opportunity and have a responsibility to ensure that all their students are prepared to unlock all the doors in front of them, including the door to a college education if the student chooses,” said Dr. Linda Murray, Superintendent-in-Residence at The Education Trust—West. “This means ensuring that students have the skills, knowledge, and coursework necessary to access college and career opportunities. And it means eliminating the systematic tracking that increases differences among groups, with low-income students and students of color receiving less rigorous coursework, leading to inferior education outcomes and fewer career opportunities.” The report highlights the potential and promise of the Linked Learning high school reform approach to address many of these problems. Linked Learning melds college and career readiness through an integrated high school curriculum that prepares students for both college and career options. However, the report highlights a number of important equity issues that must be addressed in order for Linked Learning to fulfill its promise. “The nearly 100-year-old system of high school education is not relevant in today’s world,” said Dr. Tameka McGlawn, Senior Practice Associate at The Education Trust—West. “We need new models that produce graduates who are equipped to meet the demands of today’s knowledge-based society with both the college-level academic preparation and the real-world skills demanded by our colleges and employers. But to ensure that result, we must be careful to offer truly equitable college and career opportunities to those students of color and lowincome students who have traditionally been underserved by our education system.” The Education Trust—West works for the high academic achievement of all students at all levels, pre-k through college. They expose opportunity and achievement gaps that separate students of color and low-income students from other youth, as well as identify and advocate for the strategies that will close those gaps.

SUBMITTED BY KATIE DERRIG, ABODE SERVICES The Veterans Administration has awarded the Alameda County Coalition for Veteran Families, a group of four non-profit organizations that offer housing and support services in Alameda County, a $1 million grant for the coalition’s Every Veteran Home Program. The goal of this program is to re-house veteran families who are currently homeless, and to prevent future homelessness among re-housed and at-risk families by helping them access the services they need to maintain stable, selfsufficient housing. The coalition is led by Abode Services, an organization with 22 years of experience helping homeless families and individuals achieve stability and independence. Abode Services will coordinate with Operation Dignity, a veteran-specific housing and service provider; LifeLong Medical Care, an operator of several clinics, heath centers and supportive housing sites; and Building Futures with Women and Children, an organization specializing in housing and services dedicated to the prevention of family violence and support of mental health. Coalition partners will use their combined resources to provide veteran families with housing and services, including rent and deposit assistance, case management, and primary and mental health care. “As of this past January, there were approximately 500 homeless veterans in Alameda County.” said Abode Services Director of Housing Vivian Wan. “This grant from the VA will be a tremendous step toward ensuring that these veterans and their families can access the services they need to avoid or leave homelessness. ‘Every Veteran Home’ isn’t just the name the coalition chose for the program – it’s our vision, too.” The grant to the Every Veteran Home Program was one of 85 awards, totaling $60 million, made through the VA’s Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) Program. This initiative is a part of the VA’s plan to end homelessness among veterans in five years. In 2009, an estimated 107,000 veterans were homeless in the U.S. on any given night.

“We already knew that Alameda County residents are some of the best recyclers in the country, with 63 percent reporting they recycle regularly,” says Jeff Becerra, Senior Communications Manager at StopWaste.Org, “but the results of the contest proved that more and more residents are eager and efficient recyclers.” Of the 893 sorts conducted, StopWaste.Org found 85 percent of garbage bins contained less than 25 percent recyclables and 55 percent con-

recyclable and compostable materials in their trash bins. The three finalists, selected from Oakland, Hayward and Livermore, participated in a recycling “sort-off” competition on July 25, 2011, for the title of “Alameda County’s Best Recycler” and a grand prize of $500. As a testament to the contest’s success and participants’ recycling skills, the “sort-off” resulted in a tie, with both Kristen Kinzel of Livermore and Amy Lee of Hayward winning $500. Aurell Cater of Oakland was awarded $250 as runner-up. From April through June, StopWaste.Org’s prize crew randomly selected garbage bins on regular garbage collection days and rewarded those residents who correctly separated their recyclables, compostables and trash. Alameda County residents demonstrated widespread enthusiasm for the contest with 20 percent of the county participating and a total of 61 winners more than half of whom demonstrated perfect results (zero percent recyclables and compostables in their garbage bin).

tained less than 25 percent compostables. The introduction of an annual Ready Set Recycle contest not only encourages residents to form lasting recycling habits but also provides an effective way of helping Alameda County reach its voter-mandated goal of diverting 75 percent of all waste from county landfills. StopWaste.Org has set the more aggressive goal of only 10 percent recyclables and compostables in the garbage bin by 2020. StopWaste.Org will make Ready Set Recycle an annual event, to be held again next spring because of the program’s success and enthusiasm of Alameda County residents, In the meantime, County residents are encouraged to visit www.ReadySetRecycleContest.Org where they can take a recycling pledge and obtain tips and information about how to improve their recycling habits.

Lt. governor releases plan to revive Calif economy BY ADAM WEINTRAUB ASSOCIATED PRESS SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP), Jul 29 - Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom's proposal to jumpstart economic development and job growth in California, unveiled Friday, drew support from business and labor alike as it focused on “small wins” that he believes entrenched political factions can agree on. The proposal, however, dealt only in broad strokes with battleground issues such as taxation and environmental regulations that cause interest groups to dig in for a political fight. “Everyone has their trophy, everyone has their agenda, and they start shooting at each other before we even sit down,” Newsom, a Democrat, said. By concentrating on steps such as creating a single economic development office high in state government and marketing California overseas to expand exports, supporters hope

Newsom's approach can generate momentum toward progress on tougher issues during the next six months. The report recounted the struggles of California's economy, which has lost a million jobs in five years. It also detailed strengths that could underpin new growth, including a culture of business innovation, access to export markets, an educated workforce, and a solid foundation in the emerging “clean economy” for products with environmental benefits. Aspects of the plan drew praise from the California Chamber of Commerce, California Labor Federation, the state chapter of the National Federation of Independent Businesses and the California Association for Local Economic Development. CalChamber CEO Allan Zaremberg said his group appreciated Newsom's emphasis on international trade, regulatory reform and “the priority

Sacramento policy makers must place on doing no more harm to our economy.” Shortly after he was elected last year, Gov. Jerry Brown asked business leaders for ideas on how to boost job growth in technology and manufacturing. Brown attended at least one of the panel meetings with chief executives that fed into Newsom's report. Several of its recommendations were part of Brown's campaign platform. Brown “will continue to work closely with (Newsom) to expand California's job creation agenda,” Gil Duran, a spokesman for Brown, said Friday. He called the idea for a cabinet-level office focused on job creation a positive suggestion that Brown will discuss with Newsom and legislative leaders. Newsom is working with Assembly Speaker John Perez, D-Los Angeles, to send a bill creating that office to Brown's desk by September.

Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, said he was looking forward to working with Newsom on steps to foster job creation and link education to the economy. Steinberg still hopes to pass legislation to streamline business regulations and assess their costs and benefits. His previous effort was shelved during spring budget negotiations with Republican lawmakers. Newsom's proposal also calls for new or improved economic measurements, such as evaluating the benefits of various tax incentives. Some of those incentives were designed to lure companies to relocate to California but don't encourage the 95 percent of job growth that comes from startups and expansion of companies that are already in California. The proposal by Newsom lays out the broad strokes of a plan to set the state on a course toward job growth. Among its proposals:

- Emphasize innovation and manufacturing, particularly by small, agile companies serving global supply chains. Encourage expanded exports of both goods and services. - Re-establish a state presence in foreign markets to promote trade, starting with a privately funded office in China within 180 days, then one in Brazil. - Remove thickets of “onerous and inconsistent regulations, slow bureaucracies and misaligned policies” that slow California businesses and impose barriers to global competition, without weakening standards. - Plan education and job training with economic development in mind, emphasizing the skills workers will need for “new economy” jobs. Business leaders appreciate the plan's emphasis on speed, measureable results and regular continued on page 31

Commuter legislation SUBMITTED BY KRISTINE ROSELIUS Senate Bill 582, authored by state Sen. Leland Yee (D-San Francisco), is awaits Gov. Jerry Brown’s signature after passing both houses of the state Legislature the week ending July 15, 2011. The bill, which was jointly sponsored by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), aims to reduce both traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions by establishing a four-year pilot program under which local air districts and metropolitan planning organizations could require employers with 50 or more employees (or, at the agencies’ discretion, 20 or more employees) to adopt commute benefit policies that offer workers one of the following: the option to pay for their transit, vanpooling or bicycling expenses with pre-tax dollars, as allowed by federal law; a transit or vanpool subsidy of $75 per month; a free shuttle or vanpool operated by or for the employer; or any employer-chosen alternative to these options that can be demonstrated to provide an equal or greater benefit. Examples of the kinds of alternative commute benefit policies employers may choose have long been in place at the Sunset Development Co.’s Bishop Ranch business park in San Ramon. Some 33,000 workers are employed at the 585-acre park, which is home to everything from Fortune 500 corporations to small local businesses. “We offer all employees full-service commute assistance, including free express buses from BART, a variety of incentives, and access to a free Guaranteed Ride Home program,” explained Bishop Ranch’s transportation manager, Marci McGuire. “As a result, even the employees of our smallest companies receive the same quality and quantity of commute benefits as our largest employers.” SB 582 is modeled on local ordinances already adopted in San Francisco, Berkeley and Richmond, and at San Francisco International Airport. To date, the vast majority of employers subject to these ordinances have chosen the pre-tax option, which reduces employers’ payroll taxes by an average of about $224 per employee per year, and can reduce employees’ commuting costs by up to 40 percent or as much as $1,100 annually. “Our commute benefit ordinance has proven to be a win-win-win,” noted Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates, who also serves as Chair of the Air District’s Board of Directors and as an MTC Commissioner. “Employees like it because they spend less money on transportation to and from work. Employers like it because it trims their tax bills. Everybody gets to do a little something to save the planet. It may be one of the few issues in Berkeley history that has not generated controversy.” “Businesses that offer commuter benefits to their employees enjoy tax savings and higher employee retention rates,” said Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Air District. “Employees are more likely to consider commute options like transit, ridesharing and bicycling when actively encouraged by their employers.” For more information about MTC, the regional transportation planning, financing, and coordinating agency for the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area, visit www.mtc.ca.gov.

revisions to address changing conditions, said Carl Guardino, president of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, which represents some of the world's largest technology companies. The group paid $45,000 toward developing the report, about twothirds of its cost. Guardino praised Newsom's willingness to learn from others about better ways to foster economic development. Some fellow Democrats criticized Newsom for accompanying Republican lawmakers on a job-growth tour of Texas this spring, but ``there's a lot of stuff out there we can learn,'' Guardino said. A group representing manufacturers congratulated Newsom for trying to make California more attractive to high-wage businesses, and expressed hope the effort would change past practices of picking winners, such as renewable energy, for state support at the expense of other industries. The group is “anxious to start helping,” said Gino DiCaro, spokesman for the California Manufacturing and Technology Association. “The essentials that any company needs for growth are simple: predictable costs, competitive costs, adequate infrastructure, access to skilled workers and regulatory certainty,” he said. Hard work lies ahead as Newsom, a business owner and former San Francisco mayor, steps to the forefront of the economic push his first major policy move since he was elected to statewide office. California remains mired in a sluggish recovery, with most counties at double-digit unemployment. A University of the Pacific economic forecast on Friday projected the state rate will stay above 10 percent through 2013, and federal data for the second quarter showed the national economy still sputtering.

Fremont Log SUBMITTED BY DETECTIVE BILL VETERAN, FREMONT PD July 29 Officer Hadden stopped a suspicious vehicle near Stevenson Boulevard and Albrae Street. She contacted the driver who is on probation for being a felon in possession of ammunition. A search of the vehicle located a stolen credit card and multiple burglary tools. Follow up on other miscellaneous property inside the vehicle led to the identification of more property stolen the previous day in Cupertino. The driver was arrested for possessing stolen property, possessing burglary tools and a probation violation. A Ford Mustang traveling northbound on Grimmer at a high rate of speed rear-ended a Ford SUV. The force of the impact spun the SUV over the raised center median which then rolled over onto its roof. The Mustang driver was transported to San Jose Regional and the SUV driver transported to Eden. Neither driver sustained lifethreatening injuries. Two black male adults wearing dark clothing approach a male at Dalton Co at Eggers. The subjects produced a revolver and demanded his cell phone and money. The victim complied and the suspects were last seen running eastbound towards the rear of the Camden Quik Stop. One suspect, described as a black male adult, 20-25 years old, medium build, medium complexion, wearing a black hoodie wearing a

black baseball cap - orange bill was carrying a large framed black revolver/silver grip. The other suspect is described as a black male adult, 20-25 yrs, black hoodie, medium build and dark pants. Units were dispatched to Southlake Mobile Home Park on a domestic violence call in which a female suspect brandished a knife at her husband. A surround and call-out was done on the residence and the female suspect came out. The female suspect refused to follow commands and charged at Officer Settle. Officer Settle deployed the Taser which immediately incapacitated the suspect. The suspect was treated at Washington Township Hospital and booked into FPD jail for felony domestic violence, brandishing a knife and resisting arrest. An armed robbery occurred in 40000 block of Blacow Rd. The victim's cell phone was taken which was equipped with GPS. A ping on the phone was quickly initiated, which showed the phone in the area of Stevenson and Cedar in Newark shortly after the robbery. Units responded to the area and located the suspects; the phone and gun used in the robbery were recovered. Officers were dispatched to a residence on Pajaro Drive on a report of a two-year-old not breathing. Units responded, found the house empty and later located the child and parents at Fremont Kaiser. Apparently the mother performed CPR, revived

the child and transported him to the hospital. The child was breathing on his own and recovering at the hospital. July 30 At 9:50 p.m., a drive-by shooting occurred in front of 4555 Peralta Boulevard. A group of males walking home were confronted by 3-4 males driving by in a vehicle. Words were exchanged and shots were fired from the car towards the pedestrians. One victim, a Hispanic Male Adult, age 32, was fatally wounded. FPD officers arrived and attempted CPR, followed by FFD life saving efforts, all to no avail. The victim succumbed to his wounds at 10:02 p.m. An investigation is currently on-going. July 31 Officer Lawrence responded to a suspicious circumstance at 32000 Lake Bridgeport. The homeowners stated around 3 a.m., they heard somebody attempt to open their front door. Upon investigating the noise, they found a female on their front porch. The homeowners assumed the female had the wrong house and asked her to leave. A few hours later they noticed their front door lock had been damaged and felt the subject was attempting to burglarize their home. Officers responded to a call for help in the area of Bell Street and located a victim of domestic violence. The victim had a visible head injury sustained from a fight with her husband. The husband was arrested for felony domestic violence by Officer Spear. A shoplifting incident quickly turned into a robbery

when the suspect fought with a store security guard at Rite Aid on Mowry Avenue. The suspect, described as a tall black male adult with shoulder length curly dreads and a black hat, fought the security guard off and fled the store with items. August 2 A residence on Gissing Place was burglarized sometime during daytime hours. The point of entry and loss was unknown. A second burglary occurred on Hunter Lane. The point of entry was the front door and the loss was undetermined. At 10:25 p.m., Hayward PD called because a victim arrived at Kaiser Hayward with a gunshot wound. The victim was transported to Eden Hospital for surgery. Officers Blass and Wilson responded to investigate. The shooting likely occurred at 9 p.m. at Nordvik Park at Paseo Padre Parkway and Commerce Drive. Witnesses were not forthright with information and suspect information is vague. The victim’s injuries appeared minor. Officers responded to a residence on Blackstone Way to investigate two prowlers. Officer Lobue located two possible suspects who fled. A foot pursuit ensued and the suspects were apprehended. Two 12-year old male juveniles were arrested for resisting arrest. August 3 At the Starbucks at Mission/Warm Springs, a victim parked his vehicle on Warm Springs just outside Starbucks and from the window watched a black Lexus stop alongside his vehicle. A black male got out and shattered the driver-side

window taking items from the back seat. The victim ran to his car and grabbed the suspect as he was getting back into the Lexus. The victim was then dragged approximately 20 feet by the suspect vehicle until his foot was run over. He refused treatment and suspect vehicle has not been located. Officer M. Smith responded to Walmart on a theft case in which two suspects were being detained by store security. One suspect fled the store and the other was arrested. The arrested suspect gave up the whereabouts of his crime partner which led officers to a storage unit on Edison Way. Officers found the storage unit locked from the outside but decided to conduct a probation search anyway after getting the lock combination from Lathrop. Once inside they located Suspect #2 hiding in the unit and arrested him. On July 23rd at 9:20 a.m. the ‘Check N Go’ check cashing business at 39481 Fremont Blvd was robbed by a lone black male adult suspect. The victim teller (who is 8 months pregnant) was forced into the back of the business. The suspect pointed a handgun at the victim and ordered her to open the registers and safe. After taking an undisclosed amount of money, the suspect ordered the victim to lay on the ground. The suspect then fled in a green colored Chevrolet Camaro. Through investigation done by the Fremont Police Department Robbery Unit, Donald Jenkins (20 year old male) was identified as the robbery suspect. Jenkins was arrested in

Newark Log SUBMITTED BY COMMANDER BOB DOUGLAS, NEWARK PD Saturday July 30 Officers responded to the 7-11 store located at the intersection of Thornton Avenue and Sycamore Street at 2:30 a.m. for an armed robbery that had just occurred. Responding officers learned that the suspect entered the store wearing a mask covering his face. The suspect pulled out a handgun, pointed it at the clerk, telling the clerk to hand over money and cigarettes then fled on foot eastbound on foot. The clerk believed the suspect was a dark skinned male, approximately 25 to 30 years old, 5’10” tall, 200 lbs., wearing black gloves, and black pants. No vehicle was seen or heard. August 1 At 5:50 p.m., Officers responded to the 8400 block of Mayhews Landing Road on a report of a residential burglary that had just occurred. The resident returned home and saw a juvenile male near the front of her address carrying some of her property. The resident and family gave chase in their vehicle as the juvenile was running away and dropping their property. The juvenile tried to hide on a porch on Sunset Avenue, was taken into custody and, when searched, additional property stolen from the residence was found in his pockets and a backpack. The suspect, age 16, a runaway from a group home in Oakland with a prior arrest for residential burglary in Newark was booked at juvenile hall. Officer Kimbrough was detailed to Newpark Mall at 6:40 p.m. on a report of two females, Riza Martinez, resident of Lodi, age 18 and Vivian Arias, Hayward resident age 21, making purchases with a fraudulent credit card at several stores inside the mall. Martinez and Arias were booked at Santa Rita Jail. Tuesday August 2 Officer initiated a car stop on Thornton Avenue at Arden at 11:44 p.m. The passenger of the vehicle fled and a foot pursuit ensued.

SUBMITTED BY SGT. J. RINETTI, UNION CITY PD

On 07/28/11 at about 12:45 PM, Union City Police was dispatched to the area of Fourth Street between “D” and “E” Street on a report of shooting. Upon police arrival, witnesses reported an exchange of gunfire between two groups. Suspect and vehicle descriptions were obtained and broadcast to responding Officers. An Officer responding to the scene saw a vehicle matching the description from one of the involved parties. A traffic stop was conducted and the occupants were detained. During the investigation, UCPD learned that a local hospital was treating a gunshot victim from Union City. As a result of the investigation all the occupants of the vehicle were arrested. The victim is an 18-year-old Hispanic male from Union City. His injuries (single gunshot wound) are non-life threatening and he is in stable condition at a local hospital.

August 5, 2011

BY SIMON WONG Hayward Rotary Club and Neumanali Restaurant (742 B Street, Hayward) hosted the inaugural concert of the Hayward Chamber Players, a trio of world-class musicians, in support of the Hayward Rotary Foundation Dictionary Project which provides every eight-year old in a Hayward Unified School District elementary school with a dictionary. The Project is in its seventh year. Almost 70 Rotarians and their friends were treated to virtuoso performances on July 31, 2011, by violinist Corina Stoian, cellist Alexandru Dumitrache and pianist Ron Brickman whom Hayward piano teacher Cathy O’Connor assisted, as page-turner. Stoian’s musical career began at an early age, performing with prominent symphony orchestras throughout Romania while still a student at the prestigious Conservatory of Music, Bucharest, and winning numerous prizes in national violin and chamber music competitions. She studied further at the famous Folkwang Musikhochschule (Conservatory of Music), Essen, in Germany. Stoian has resided in the USA since August 2006 and has apcontinued on page 35

peared as a soloist at the Bear Valley Music Festival, the Lesher Center for the Arts (Walnut Creek), with the Merced Symphony, Auburn Symphony, Academy at All Hallows Orchestra (Sacramento), Folsom Lake Symphony, at the Sonora Bach Festival and in numerous recitals and concerts in Amador and Calaveras counties. She has featured as a soloist in Italy, France, Israel, Bulgaria, Germany and Switzerland. The violinist is also a coach with the second annual Hayward Odd Fellows’ two-week, intensive master class series for youth, ages 12 to 19. The children, from far and wide, organize as trios and quartets, play small chamber music for two hours each evening and will perform for members and guests on August 15, 2011. Dumitrache was born in Bucharest and joined the Bucharest Conservatory of Music aged 11. He won First Prize in the prestigious National Cello Competition, in Romania, when he was 17 and was invited to record and perform with the Romanian National Broadcast Symphony; he continued his studies at the University of Illinois where he earned his Master’s degree. Dumitrache has performed throughout Romania as a recitalist and has appeared as a

soloist with many European and American orchestras. Brickman is an accomplished soloist, recitalist, chamber musician and accompanist. As President of the Mother Lode Friends of Music, the classical music-performance organization serving the central region of the Sierra Nevada foothills, he organizes and performs in several concerts each season. He has appeared at the Crocker Museum (Sacramento), the Berkley City Club, the St. James Chamber Series (Sonora) and at other venues across the nation and internationally. He resides in California’s historic Gold Rush Country, now known as Calaveras County. The program consisted of classically-arranged popular music from around the world. An extremely appreciative audience was treated to masterful renditions of folk tunes, English country dances, Spanish tangos, Hungarian dances, Argentinean tangos, American rag, Russian waltzes, Brazilian rumbas and Grigoras Dinicu’s The Lark. Hayward residents Stoian and Dumitrache are the best kept secrets of the Hayward and Greater Bay Area arts scene. The surprise was palpable. “The Dictionary Project is Hayward Rotary’s signature project,” explained Pam Russo, Executive Director of St. Rose

Hospital Foundation and newly-elected president of Hayward Rotary; Russo is the third female president in the club’s 90-year history. “This is the first time we’ve held an event like this; the owner of Neumanali Restaurant knows Corina and Alex, approached me and Robin Wilma and we thought it would be a pleasant way to spend a Sunday afternoon for the good of children and the community. Rotary serves many, including youth and families.” Locally, Hayward Rotary’s theme for 2011-12 is “Bucks,” a simple way of raising funds, a little and often, with fun activities such as blind wine-tasting. Rotary International’s theme is “Reach within to Embrace Humanity” – giving back, giving of oneself, “Service Above Self.” “I’d encourage everyone to support Rotary and our causes. Rotarians may bring guests to meetings to learn about what we do,” said Russo. “After attending my first meeting as a new Rotarian, I accompanied George Pacheco to Child Spree of which he was Chair; the following year we were co-Chairs. Child Spree helped prepare under-served children to return to school with a backpack and a $100 Mervyns gift certificate. Each adult guided a child around the store for new clothes and school supplies.

That was my first experience; there was an emotional investment. We also have fun doing what we do. Each year, Rotary grants, our Dictionary Project and a Presidential project amount to approximately $70,000 that we give back to the community.” “We hope the Hayward Chamber Players’ inaugural concert becomes a tradition and grows and flourishes,” said Brickman. “Community and public support will enable top musicians to perform together in people’s homes and in other venues.” “Your music is magnificent; totally different for our community and very welcome. It’s a treat to have you here,” stated local businessman John Wilma who, with Ken Meirovitz, launched the Dictionary-Literacy Project for Hayward's Third Graders after he saw two job seekers struggling to complete application forms more than seven years ago. “We must thank Julie McKillop of Neumanali Restaurant for the fine food and wines, our musicians who generously performed gratis and everyone who supported this benefit concert for the Dictionary Project. Thanks also to Jay Ifshin, of Ifshin Violins in El Cerrito, for his $250 donation. Today’s event and the success of the Dictionary Project are only possible with every-

one’s continued support.” For more information: Hayward Chamber Players Contact Corina Stoian at (510) 363-3403 or email StoianViolin@gmail.com.
