or decades, scientists have been expanding our knowledge and vision of the universe. And, closer to home, a similar quest gave a group of industrious high school students from Fremont Christian School (FCS), the impetus to put their own ideas into action. Thirteen students enrolled in Space Engineering, an elective class for grades 9-12, taught by Mr. Matthew Miller, recently encountered their own version of space travel. Their project, an innovatively designed micro-robot, was placed onboard the Ariane 5 ES rocket and launched into space, destined for the International Space Station (ISS). The blast-off occurred on the morning of March 23 (March 22 evening PST), at the French Guiana Space Center located in the jungles of northeast South America. continued on page 32 INDEX It’s a date . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3

Tri-City Voice Newspaper Needs Your Help There has been fantastic community support We qualify for adjudication and have filed to go to court. The bad news is the Bay Area News Group/MediaNews has filed to stop us again and they have filed to change the judge. The Bay Area News Group MediaNews is trying to convince the Judge not to let us go to court. Bay Area News Groups opposition is based on maintaining a financial monopoly. We need a judge to allow us to present our case. We need the community to go to court to observe and show support for Tri-City Voice.
We will publish court information as soon as we get it. Qualifications to become a “Newspaper of General Circulation” are quite simple. A portion of the California Government Code that outlines one method of “adjudication” is Section 6000. Tri-City Voice easily meets all of these requirements. The code states: A “newspaper of general circulation” is a newspaper published for the dissemination of local or telegraphic news and intelligence of a general character, which has a bona fide subscription list of paying subscribers, and has been established, printed and published at regular intervals in the State, county, or city where publication, notice by publication, or official advertising is to be given or made for at least one year preceding the date of the publication, notice or advertisement. Listed in order, the following are the requirements… 1) Distribute news of general interest…TCV qualifies 2) Have a valid paid subscription list…TCV qualifies 3) Printed and published in the City of Fremont for at least one year… TCV qualifies That’s it! Those are the requirements under Section 6000 to become a Newspaper of General Circulation.

Mind, Body, Energy! Washington Hospital’s Sixth Annual Women’s Health Conference Patty Wooten, R.N., a nationally known health care speaker and "nurse-humorist," was the lunchtime speaker at Washington Hospital’s Sixth Annual Women’s Health Conference. In a laughter filled presentation, she teaches that humor provides comic relief for the tension that develops during illness and recovery, and it also stimulates the immune system, decreases pain, reduces stress hormones and improves the quality of life. To learn more about education programs and services offered by the Washington Women’s Center, visit www.whhs.com/womenscenter or call (510) 608-1301.
On Saturday, March 31, Washington Hospital held its Sixth Annual Women’s Health Conference. The theme of this year’s conference was Mind, Body, Energy! The day was devoted to inspiring and empowering women so that they can feel their best by taking care of both their mind and body. "Women benefit from sharing their experiences and this annual event is committed to bringing women together to enrich their health and quality of life," says Paulette Grilli,R.N., Manager of Health Promotions at Washington Hospital.
Mind and Body One of the key issues affecting women's health and their mind and body — is how to age gracefully. The keynote address on "Aging Gracefully" by Dr. Victoria Leiphart, a gynecologist on the Washington Hospital medical staff, offered tips on staying active, eating a balanced diet, and building a network of friendships. “Research demonstrates that women who have friends and a network of support are healthier and happier,” according to Grilli. Dr. Vandana Sharma, an oncologist on the Washington Hospital medical staff, discussed lifestyle choices women can make that could reduce their risk of cancer. Macaria Meyer, a registered dietician, followed with a discussion of how your mood and the food you eat have an effect on one another.
The day wasn’t all about sitting and listening. Educational talks and inspiration were combined with activities such as Tai Chi to keep attendees engaged and moving. "In one session, participants learned to combine breathing and movement to increase their energy," says Grilli. "The goal of this event was to provide women with information and skills they could use at home to support a healthy body and a state of well-being."
Heart, Humor and Healing The lunchtime presentation featured Patty Wooten, R.N., a nationally known health care speaker and "nurse-humorist" who kept the audience laughing while discussing how the ability to maintain a "light hearted" attitude and a willingness to laugh can help people cope with stress. In her presentation, Wooten discussed information about laughter research and the impact laughter has on the immune system. She also shared tactics on how to use humor when facing stress and change.
Focus on Women Mind, Body, Energy! Sixth Annual Women’s Health Conference was sponsored by the Washington Women’s Center. Washington Women’s Center offers collaborative health screenings, and diagnostic and educational programs tailored to meet a woman’s needs. Washington Women’s Center is located at 2500 Mowry Ave., Suite 150, in Fremont.
Washington Women's Center Class Focuses on Body, Mind and Spirit
Coping with a chronic illness can take a serious toll on your body as well as your mind and spirit. The pain and physical limitations caused by a chronic illness can often lead to sadness and grief as well as depression. Yoga can give you the tools you need to cope with your illness so you can feel better physically and emotionally. The Washington Women’s Center is offering an upcoming class called "Yoga and Coping with Chronic Illness." It is scheduled for Monday, April 9, from 6 to 8 p.m., at the Washington Women's Center, 2500 Mowry Avenue in Fremont. The class is limited to 15 participants and registration is required. The fee is $15 and a credit card number must be provided at the time of registration. Call (510) 608-1301 to register. The class is for any woman with a chronic illness such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, lupus or cancer. If your illness is affecting your quality of life, this class is for you.

SUBMITTED BY AN NGUYEN Chabot College Art 9 Class prepares for their 5th journey to the annual California Conference for the Advancement of Ceramic Art (CCACA) in Davis, California, on April 27 – 29. Also known as the Art Colloquium, students from Art 9
are comprised of student artists ranging from first-year art students to experienced artists in the ceramics community. They are led by their instructor Mr. Clayton Thiel, well-known Bay Area ceramics sculptor, who has also been invited to be featured in the “30 Artist Show” at the Natsoulas Gallery in Davis.
Art 9 students will represent Chabot College in a conference with over 40 colleges and universities from throughout California. Participant Pauline Cabello shares, “CCACA is a nationally recognized art show that features leading artists from around the world for a weekend of creative workshops, collaboration, and
networking. It’s an opportunity for students to showcase their artwork, gain hands-on experience designing, building, and curate an exhibit.” Art 9 Colloquium has no allocated budget and depends on students and contributions from the community. The students desire to represent
Chabot College in the most professional manner possible and need financial support to afford the cost of the event, such as hotel rooms, food, attending conference lectures, as well as materials to build and light their exhibit. Students from Chabot College Art 9 are asking for community support in this endeavor. To pledge your support and learn more about Art 9, please visit the facebook page www.facebook.com/SoTAartclubChabot and look for information to contribute on the Information Page. All contributions, regardless of size or value, are greatly appreciated by the students of Chabot College. Participant Mairead Roberts says, “We would appreciate any support, even if community members could pass our message along that would count for a lot.”

A
rea rugs can serve many purposes. From an interior design standpoint, rugs support the color scheme and style of the room and can be the perfect starting point for selecting paint and furnishings. Rugs can help define separate areas in a space, and can also serve as a stunning focal point for a room. From a practical standpoint, rugs add warmth to a cool floor, help reduce noise, and provide a comfortable place for kids to play. With the enormous selection of rugs available, choosing the right one can be daunting. Below are a few tips to consider when choosing an area rug. • Decide how much you would like your rug to stand out in the room. Will
the rug be a focal point, functioning like artwork in the room? If so, then choose a rug with a beautiful design or motif. For example, in traditionally decorated rooms, you might select a rug with a center medallion; for a more modern room, you might select an abstract or geometric design. If you select an area rug with a large and busy pattern, keep the other fabrics in the room simple. For example, a solid color sofa, and a subtle striped fabric on the chairs. If you would rather call attention to other features in the room, such as that gorgeous oil painting or that new red sofa, select a rug with a muted pattern or a solid color. • A rug for your dining room should be large enough to accommodate both the table as well as the chairs with people
sitting in them. A rule of thumb is to add about 36" to the width and length of the table. This will give enough room for diners to comfortably move their chairs in and out. Generally, china cabinets and buffets sit on the floor, not the area rug.
Sofas are heavy enough that they can be partially on and off the rug.
• If you are purchasing a large rug to cover an entire room, leave a border of exposed floor on all sides. This will make the room look larger. If your rug is centered in the room, aim for equal amounts of floor showing on all sides. When this is not possible, aim for equal amounts on two opposite sides.
• Use a waffle-weave mat called a "rug grip" underneath rugs that are placed on bare floors. This will protect the floor from scratches, as well as keep the rug in place.
• For stability, living room chairs should ideally be placed all the way on or all the way off the area rug. If chairs are heavy enough, this may not be a problem.
• A rug under a coffee table looks best if the rug is the same length as the sofa. An area rug measuring 6' X 8' or 5' X 7' is usually a good size in front of a sofa.
• Area rugs on top of wall-to-wall carpeting can cause a tripping hazard. I prefer not to use area rugs on top of carpeting, but if you do, make sure to use a rug grip made for this purpose. This type of rug grip has adhesive on both sides, causing the rug to stick to the carpeting.

California's 10th District seat. A Sacramento law firm had argued in a lawsuit that Hernandez's use of the moniker would violate state elections law because Hernandez has left NASA. Hernandez had flown aboard the
shuttle Discovery in 2009. The Sacramento Bee reports (http://bit.ly/H3yHKG ) that Superior Court Judge Lloyd Connelly ruled that ballot designations apparently can reflect a profession or vocation held
during the previous calendar year. Hernandez spent two weeks at NASA in 2011 before leaving the agency. Information from: The Sacramento Bee, http://www.sacbee.com

SUBMITTED BY GAIL BLALOCK The Tri-City Ecology Center continued its long tradition of donating books to the five county libraries in the Tri-City area. Its recent 40th annual book donation included 21 titles, eleven for children and teens and ten for adults. The books were recently on display at the Fremont Main Library lobby. Books for adults include “Four Fish” by Paul Greenberg, “Toxic Free” by Debra Lynn Dadd, “World Changing” by Bill McKibben and Alex Steffen, and “Genius of Place, Fredrick La Olmsted” by Justin Martin. The donation also included a beautifully illustrated book for birders – “Alameda County Breeding Bird Atlas” written by members of the Audubon Society who are Alameda County residents. The children’s books feature “Hot Planet for Cool Kids” by Julie Hall, “Hello Bumblebee Bat” by Darrin Lunde, “Into the Deep, True Story of Explorer William Beebe” by David Shelton, and “Jo MacDonald Saw a Pond” by Mary Quattlebaum. Over the years, the Ecology Center has donated approximately $40,000 in books, videos, and DVDs to the Fremont, Newark, and Union City county libraries. This is the longest-running program in the Center’s 40year history thanks to the generous donations from members and income from fundraisers. Suggestions for future donations are always welcome at www.tricityecology.org. Stop by your local county library and check these books out!

Fremont Unified School District Board meeting report BY MIRIAM G. MAZLIACH The following are highlights from the Fremont Unified School District (FUSD) Board meeting held on March 14, 2012. Oral Communications/Public Comment: Fremont Adult School Principal, Steve Giudice remarked on the school’s 78th Anniversary, which was recognized via a Board resolution. Additionally, Giudice commended Fremont Superintendent Dr. James Morris, for his support of the school and multiple visitations over this past year. Morris was presented with the “Alameda Chapter’s Friend of Adult Education Award” and a Certificate of Recognition. As approved at the February 22 Board meeting, and as a precautionary measure, “pink slips” (for potential termination of positions) have been distributed to specified classified and administrative personnel, as notification is required by March 15 per Edu-
cation Codes and Board Policies. Martha Kreeger and Christina Broadwin, both MSJHS parents, spoke out against this action. Several other parents commented under the misconception that the policy would go into effect immediately. Superintendent Morris asked Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources, Robert Lee, to move to another meeting room and speak with the large group of parents to alleviate their concerns. Agenda Item – Special Education Opportunity Report: Dr. Lee Funk of School Innovations and Advocacy (SI&A), a consultancy group, presented his detailed review and analysis of the district’s special education program, with the assistance of FUSD’s Director of Special Education Services, Judith Cameron. Dr. Funk commented that the district has made continual progress on placing identified students in the “least restrictive environments.” However, it appears that most Special Ed stu-

dents do not leave the program; so, the district needs to take a look at criteria regarding exit procedures. Additionally, there is an over representation of AfricanAmerican students in the program. Although not uncommon statewide, according to Dr. Funk, the district needs to address this disparity issue. Agenda Item – Financial Advisory Committee (FAC): Hugh Tebault, the chair of FAC, presented the committee’s report, noting that FUSD receives less ADA (Average Daily Attendance) monies, paid by the state per student, even though Fremont district students score higher API (Academic Performance Index) growth than most districts. “This is a huge cash flow issue when you look at the nuts and bolts. We used more than we brought in.” Agenda Item – Public Hearings Sunshine Proposal/Collective Bargaining: Time was reserved for both the Fremont Unified District
Teachers Association (FUDTA) and Fremont Unified School District (FUSD), to present and receive proposals on a one-year contract successor agreement. The motion to accept the proposals was passed by the Board with 5 ayes. Agenda Items: District Demographic Study/Assignment Areas: Demographer Tim Reynolds and Therese Gain, FUSD’s Director of Facilities/Maintenance/ Transportation, provided an annual review of the student enrollment patterns and capacity levels at school sites. They reported that enrollment is relatively stable, but projecting the numbers over the next six years, would show more impacted/overloaded schools, especially Warm Springs, Ardenwood, Forest Park, Parkmont, and Warwick. In line with this, several housing developments were scheduled to be designated for specific school attendance area assign-
ment. However, during this Board meeting only two were approved: Guardino (Vallejo Mill/WHS area) and East King Avenue (Niles/WHS area). Agenda Item – Transportation Report: Director Therese Gain and Transportation Manager Jim Gannon discussed the status of transportation funding and related issues such as the impact of the revised bell schedules. Agenda Item – Facilities Needs: A consultant from WLC Architects/MGT America presented the initial draft of their final report on the condition/analysis of the school site facilities in FUSD. While findings indicated that most school sites fell in the Fair category, some fared worse. However, to fix or update all the recommendations of the Facilities Needs Assessment would cost an estimated $567,932,000. This is an even greater amount than what the proposed Bond measure would cover.

SUBMITTED BY PATRICIA RUSSELL PHOTO BY KEL RAMA The Chabot College Theater Arts Department will present Luis Alfaro’s critically acclaimed “Electricidad,” a Latino interpretation of the Greek tragedy “Electra,” set within the brutal gang culture of a contemporary Los Angeles barrio. Performances are April 12 14, and 19 - 22 at the Douglas Morrison Theatre in Hayward. “’Electricidad’ is a fast-paced, highly theatrical retelling of ‘Electra,’” said Rachel LePell, Chabot College Theater Arts instructor and one of the play’s producers. “It follows the original story of murder, revenge, family loyalty, family destiny and examination of the law - all unfolding in the world of the barrio culture and language,” she said. “The production will showcase a live rock and roll band and a ‘Greek chorus’ of hip hop and salsa singers and dancers,” said LePell. The setting will feature a hand-painted mural in the tradition of urban Latino artwork. “Electricidad” creator Luis Alfaro is an award-winning playwright, performer, and writer and recipient of a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship “genius grant.” He drew upon his Chicano

heritage and upbringing in the poor, largely Hispanic Pico-Union district of downtown Los Angeles to create his adaptation of the tragic Greek saga. The play opens as the title character Electricidad keeps vigil over her father’s dead body, vowing to avenge his murder by her mother Clemencia. The production is directed by Linda Amayo-Hassan with set design by Instructor Dov Hassan; both are residents of San Lorenzo. The lighting designer is Chabot College student and Union City resident Sean Gallagher. Actors include Hayward residents Janelle Aguirre, Kel Rama, Dinorah Galvan, Moinca Palcastre, and Ulises Toledo. As producer, LePell is working in collaboration with Susan E. Evans and Terry Sullivan of the Douglas Morrison Theatre. “We hope that this will be the first of many collaborations with the Douglas Morrison Theatre of Hayward,” LePell said. The theatre is owned and operated by the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District.
Performances are April 12, 13, 14, 19, 20 and 21 at 8 p.m. and April 22 at 2 p.m. at the Douglas Morrison Theatre. Tickets are $10 for students and seniors, and $15 for general admission.

AP WIRE SERVICE BY AMY WORDEN THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER PHILADELPHIA (AP),Two years ago, Charles Smith's beloved Great Dane, Buzz, came down with what his veterinarian thought was bloat, a digestive-tract disorder considered the second-leading canine killer after cancer. Turned out it was a just a scare that time. But it made Smith uneasy. Concerned that his 150-pound dog was also at risk for other maladies prevalent among dogs of Buzz's size, Smith hit the Internet in search of pet

BY JONATHAN FAHEY AP ENERGY WRITER NEW YORK (AP),– Watching the numbers on the gas pump tick ever higher can boil the blood and lead the mind to wonder: Why are gasoline prices so high? Many stand accused, including oil companies, the president, Congress, and speculators on Wall Street. Others assume that the earth is just running out of oil. The reality, economists say, is fairly simple, but it isn't very satisfying for a driver looking for someone to blame for his $75 fill-up. Last year, the average price of gasoline was higher than ever, and it hasn't gotten any better this year. The average price nationwide is $3.88 per gallon, the highest ever for March. Ten states and the District of Columbia are paying more than $4. Q: What determines the price of gasoline? A: Mainly, it's the price of crude oil, which is used to make gasoline. Oil is a global commodity, traded on exchanges around the world. The main U.S. oil benchmark has aver-
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
aged $103 per barrel this year. The oil used to make gasoline at many U.S. coastal refineries has averaged $117 per barrel. Oil prices have been high in recent months because global oil demand is expected to reach a record this year as the developing nations of Asia, Latin America and the Middle East increase their need for oil. There have also been minor supply disruptions in South Sudan, Syria and Nigeria. And oil prices have been pushed higher by traders worried that nuclear tensions with Iran could lead to more dramatic supply disruptions. Iran is the world's third largest exporter. Q: How are gasoline prices set? A: When an oil producer sells to a refiner, they generally agree to a price set on an exchange such as the New York Mercantile Exchange. After the oil is refined into gasoline, it is sold by the refiner to a distributor, again pegged to the price of wholesale gasoline on an exchange. Finally, gas station owners set their own prices based on how much they paid for their last ship-
ment, how much they will have to pay for their next shipment, and, perhaps most importantly, how much their competitor is charging. Gas stations make very little profit on the sale of gasoline. They want to lure drivers into their convenience stores to buy coffee and soda. Oil companies and refiners have to accept whatever price the market settles on – it has no relation to their cost of doing business. When oil prices are high, oil companies make a lot of money, but they can't force the price of oil up. Q: Are oil prices manipulated by speculators on Wall Street? A: Investment in oil futures contracts by pension funds, mutual funds, hedge funds, exchange traded funds and other investors who aren't going to actually use oil has risen dramatically in the last decade. Much of this money is betting that oil prices will rise. It is possible that this has inflated the price of oil – and therefore gasoline – somewhat. But investors can also bet that prices will go down, and they do. Studies of the effects of continued on page

BY ROB GILLIES ASSOCIATED PRESS TORONTO (AP), Struggling BlackBerry maker Research in Motion Ltd. said Thursday that it plans to return its focus to its corporate customers after failing to compete with flashier, consumer-oriented phones such as Apple's iPhone and models that run Google's Android software. The shift in strategy came with a management shakeup that includes longtime executive Jim Balsillie leaving the board and severing ties with a company he helped build and later see decline. RIM said it will focus its consumer efforts on targeted offerings that tap the company's strengths. That includes devices that employees will want to buy on their own and bring to the corporate environment. The company was exploring partnerships and other opportunities for consumer products that aren't deemed central. Those products
could include software and features that are then incorporated into RIM's own offerings. “We can't do everything ourselves, but we can do what we're good at,” RIM CEO Thorsten Heins said. RIM has had limited success trying to enter consumer markets in recent years, particularly with high-end devices that sport touch screens popular with consumers. Heins said a turnaround required “substantial change.” “We believe that BlackBerry cannot succeed if we tried to be everybody's darling and all things to all people,'' Heins said. “Therefore, we plan to build on our strength.” Heins, who joined RIM four years ago and was most recently its chief operating officer, replaced co-CEOs Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis in January after the company lost tens of billions in market value. Lazaridis founded the company, and Balsillie had joined in its early years.

RIM said Thursday that Balsillie has resigned from its board after 20 years with the company. David Yach, chief technology officer for software, and Jim Rowan, chief operating officer for global operations, also are leaving. The company said it was undergoing a comprehensive strategic review. Heins said he was open to selling the company, but “it is not the main direction we are pursuing right now.” The Canadian company has long dominated the corporate smartphone market. Its BlackBerrys are known for their security and reliability as email devices. President Barack Obama even refused to part with his BlackBerry after he took office. RIM has sought to expand its appeal to consumers, but it has had trouble because the phones aren't perceived to be as sexy as its chief competitors. RIM has been counting on improvements with its forthcoming BlackBerry 10 system, but that has faced multiple delays. BlackBerrys also lag iPhones or Android phones when it comes to running third-party applications. Touch-screen models that lack physical keyboards have largely flopped. For that reason, BlackBerrys are even losing ground in the business world, as employees demand iPhones or Android devices over BlackBerrys. Apple sold 37 million iPhones in the last three months of 2011 – more than what RIM shipped in the past three quarters combined. RIM shipped 11.1 million BlackBerrys in the latest quarter, which ended March 3. RIM also bombed in its efforts to produce a tablet computer to compete with Apple's iPad. Among other things, the PlayBook received negative reviews because it launched without an email program and the popular messaging service BlackBerry Messenger. In December, the tablets that originally cost $500 were selling for $200, below the cost of making them. BGC Financial analyst Colin Gillis said it's a positive development that RIM is going to focus on its corporate clients and lowerend consumers. “They are conceding the high-end consumer market with all these services that are wrapped around the platform,” Gillis said. “At least there's some reality here. Are they going to compete against iTunes? No way.” Peter Misek, an analyst at Jefferies & Co. in New York, said RIM should have recognized that it is niche player and lost the battle with Apple three years ago. Misek said the company should have looked at partnering with other companies last year rather than now. When he took the CEO job in January, Heins said a drastic change in strategy was not needed. He said Thursday that he changed his mind after conducting his “own reality check on where the entire company really is.” RIM announced the changes as it announced quarterly results that fell short of Wall Street expectations. Net loss was $125 million, or 24 cents a share, in the fiscal fourth quarter. This compares with $934 million, or $1.78 per share, a year ago. After excluding one-time items, adjusted income was 80 cents per share, a penny short of expectations from analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue fell 25 percent to $4.2 billion from $5.6 billion. Analysts were expecting $4.5 billion. For the full fiscal year, RIM earned $1.2 billion, or $2.22 a share, on revenue of $18.4 billion. That compares with net income of $3.4 billion, or $6.34 a share, on revenue of $19.9 billion in fiscal 2011. In extended trading after the results came out, RIM shares fell 33 cents, or 2.4 percent, to $13.40. During the regular session, the stock increased 6 cents to close at $13.73.

Freshman designated hitter, Ryan Beal got his second straight start and delivered a 1-4 performance with another run batted in. The day before, Ohlone's 10-game winning streak was snapped with a 5-3 loss to Skyline away. Ohlone ace Trent Allianic left the mound in the fifth inning with an arm injury and the Renegades went on to lose their first game in a month. Beal accounted for two out of the three runs Ohlone scored with an RBI and a run scored. Beal doubled to the 350' mark in right field, driving in a run in the first inning and later came around to score. He finished the game going one for four at the plate.

SUBMITTED BY STEVE BURMASTER The Logan Colts trampled the Moreau Mariners in men's volleyball on March 29 on Logan's home court with a 3-0 victory. The first game was close as Logan just squeaked by with a 25-22 win. There was quite a gap in score for following two games, however, as the Colts managed a win of 25-17 for game two and massacre of 25-14 for the third game, guaranteeing Logan the set. Alvin Nguyen, senior and middle blocker for Logan, made his starting debut of the season and did not disappoint his fans with his high-flying acrobatic moves and straight down kills. Seniors and outside hitters, Cameron Salcedo and Andrew Nguyen provided steady passing, digging and very smart hitting throughout the match. Jeric Yamboa, Logan senior and right side hitter, also had quite a few kills and assists in the front row. His counterpart, Logan junior, Noah DeloSantos made a few diving saves to extend rallies. Logan student and senior Neal Barrina led by example with his consistent, smart setting and great defense in both the front and back row. Two days later, Logan finished as a quarter finalist with a 3-1 match record in the GOLD Division at the Deer Valley Volleyball Tournament held on March 31. The Logan Colts first participated in a pool play against Concord High School and came away with a 25-9 and a 25-11 win. They next took on Foothill High School, winning the first match 25-23, losing the second 19-25, and taking the tie 15-8 to place first in the pool. Logan then played to determine if they were to participate in the gold or silver bracket. The Colts defeated the second in their pool, Acalanes High School in a nail-biter match to qualify them not only for the gold bracket, but for the quarter finals. During the quarter-final game, James Logan was defeated by the Amador Valley dons in two matches resulting in a 17-25 and a 21-25 score. Logan will be playing Mission San Jose next on Tuesday, April 3 at 6 p.m. Both teams are thus far undefeated in the MVAL.

SUBMITTED BY STAFF CAPTAIN STEVE SILVA, FREMONT FD On March 30, 2012 at 4:14 p.m., the Fremont Fire Department responded Engine 53 to a reported vehicle fire at 1351 Driscoll Road. This was a single Engine company response as there were no structures threatened. On arrival Engine 53 reported a working car fire, with no other property threatened, and then ordered the Firefighter to pull a hose line to extinguish the vehicle fire. Fremont Firefighter, Dominic Fagundes, looked through the car’s smoky windows, kicked open the passenger window, pulled a young boy out of the burning vehicle and placed him out of harm’s way. Engine 53 called for an ambulance and extinguished the car fire, while rendering medical aid to the victim. A Paramedics Plus Ambulance arrived on scene and transported the patient to Washington Hospital. The victim suffered from smoke inhalation.

SUBMITTED BY SGT. STEVE DELEMA, FREMONT PD As part of this month’s Distracted Driving Awareness Month campaign, the Fremont Police Department will be offering “zero tolerance” to those texting or operating hand-held cell phones during the month of April, 2012. Drivers who break the law and place themselves and others in danger will be cited. The current minimum ticket cost is $159, with subsequent tickets costing at least $279. Distracted driving is a serious traffic safety concern that puts everyone on the roadway at risk. As a result, law enforcement across the state, including the Fremont Police Department are increasingly cracking down on cell phone use and texting. This April will see over 225 law enforcement agencies conducting zero tolerance enforcements. Drivers who use hand-held devices are four times as likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves. Younger, inexperienced drivers under 20 years old have the highest proportion of distraction-related fatal crashes. In addition, studies show that texting while driving can delay a driver’s reaction time just as severely as having a blood alcohol content of a legally drunk driver. Studies show that there is no difference in the risks between handsfree and hand-held cell phone conversations, both of which can result in “inattention blindness” which occurs when the brain isn’t seeing what is clearly visible because the drivers’ focus is on the phone conversation and not on the road. “Turn off your phone and put it out of reach as you get into the car,” said Christopher J. Murphy, Director of the California Office of Traffic Safety. “Think before you call or text someone. If there is a chance they may be driving, let it wait. It’s not worth it.”
On February 29, at just after 5 a.m. someone broke the front door to Ocean Supermarket located at 2 South Park Victoria Drive, entered the store and broke open the cigarette cabinet, stealing over $150 in cigarettes. The video camera showed the burglar was a male wearing a black hoodie and carrying a black backpack. On March 16, 2012, at about 3:30 a.m. someone broke the front glass to Rite-Aid, 1350 South Park Victoria Drive entered and stole over $240 dollars worth of cigarettes. The video in Rite-Aid showed the suspect was a male wearing a black hoodie, carrying a black backpack and wearing distinctive looking shoes. On March 31, 2012, Milpitas Police Officers developed leads in the case and contacted a 14 year-old suspect. Officers completed their investigation and concluded the suspect was involved in the two burglaries. The suspect was arrested and booked at the Santa Clara County Juvenile Hall. Milpitas Police Department relies on the public to report suspicious activity in their neighborhoods, so we can work together in combating residential burglaries. Anyone with information regarding this incident or any other criminal activity occurring in the City of Milpitas is encouraged to call the Milpitas Police Department at (408) 5862400. Information can also be given anonymously by calling (408) 586-2500, or via the Milpitas Police Department website at http://www.ci.milpitas.ca.gov/government/police/crime_tip.asp

BY JESSICA NOËL FLOHR “Respect your elders” is something that many of us were taught growing up. For Farida Sultany, respecting one’s elders is a way of life. Sultany, a young woman of 25, is the program coordinator for the Afghan Elderly Association (AEA). She recently made her debut as a film director with her project “Komak” (The Help), a documentary on services offered by AEA. Whole families have fled the war-torn country of Afghanistan to seek refuge in the United States. Of over 300,000 Afghan Americans living in the U.S., half reside in the Bay Area.

ficult challenge to adjust to life in their adopted land. Language and cultural barriers often prevent access to needed resources. Najia Hamid arrived in the United States in 1990. As a translator for Afghan residents in Fremont, she saw the need for support services for elderly Afghan immigrants and founded AEA in 1995 with very limited resources. The organization began with 12 members and received its first notable donation from Kaiser Permanente in 2000; it has now grown to include over 600 members. Large numbers of Afghan citizens began to flee their country when the Soviets invaded in late 1979, the beginning of a 10-year occupation that took at least one “Komac” director and AEA Program Coordinator Farida Sultany with Ms. Hajera Noori in the Healthy Aging Program.
million lives. This was followed by years of civil war and the rise and fall of Taliban control. In 2001, yet another war began, this time with direct involvement. Elderly Afghan immigrants often show signs of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), requiring extra care and assistance when transitioning to a new and quite different environment. While elders in Afghanistan are treated with great respect as an integral part of their family, a fast-paced, youth-oriented lifestyle in the United States can result in confusion and isolation. To assist elderly Afghan immigrants, AEA has developed services including healthcare, naturalization assistance and housing. “Komak,” directed by Farida Sultany, premiered to a full house on the Persian New Year, March 21 at the Centerville
Community Center. The director played a starring role, introducing AEA and its services and sharing personal stories from AEA members. One of the most significant services offered by the AEA is the health program which started in 2006. The Healthy Aging Program includes exercise, information on nutrition and healthy eating, health education and a chance to socialize with other seniors. Health Promoter is focused on homebound elders. One woman in the film expressed the positive effect of home visits saying, “I am happy all day.” This is the ultimate goal of AEA… to let these men and women know that they are not alone.

On March 30, Milpitas Police officers responded to a reported theft of delivered items from a resident’s porch. The victim provided surveillance video images to officers, who later located and arrested two suspects for the theft as well as other thefts in other cities. On March 30, at 5:42 p.m. a citizen reported that an unknown suspect went onto his porch, stole a previously delivered package and then returned the package opened. The citizen Khanh Nguyen reviewed his surveillance camera which showed a male subject, later identified as a 16 year old San Jose resident, taking the package from the porch. The surveillance camera showed the suspect’s vehicle to be a black 1990’s model Honda Accord. The video showed the suspect’s return to the home several minutes later and return the package. Officers searched the area for the suspect’s vehicle. When officers located the vehicle it was occupied by Khanh Nguyen and the juvenile suspect.
Officers were able to positively identify Nguyen and the juvenile from the surveillance video which was provided by the citizen. Officer’s determined Nguyen was on probation for grand theft and conducted a probation search on the vehicle he was driving and his home. Several packages were located at both locations that were addressed to various people who reside in Milpitas, San Jose and Sunnyvale. Based on the addresses from the stolen packages several victims have been identified and some property has been returned. Milpitas Police Officers are continuing to locate and identify additional victims from the recovered evidence. Nguyen was booked into the Santa Clara County jail on 11 counts of possession of stolen property, conspiracy, probation violation, theft, prowling and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. The juvenile suspect was issued a citation for 3 counts of possession of stolen property, conspiracy, theft and prowling. The juvenile was released to his parents.

sumer culture: dog biscuits infused with foie gras, doggy day spas, jeweled collars, and faux fur jackets under the Christmas tree. “Our pets live with us as members of the family,” says Schaffer. “There's a sense that if Aunt Mildred had cataract surgery, can't I do the same for my dog?” Yet only about 1 percent of American pet owners insure their animals, compared to 25 percent in the United Kingdom, where pet insurance has been well-established for close to four decades. Advances in veterinary medicine - neurosurgery, chemotherapy, even organ transplants - have saved many animals. But the vet bills for specialists and complicated surgeries can run well into the thousands of dollars. Surgery to replace a Labrador retriever's bad knees or a Persian cat's faulty kidney - medically unthinkable only a few years ago - can top $18,000. “When I was growing up, when your pet got sick, you put them down,” said Mike Hemstreet, a software programmer who runs Pet Insurance Review, a website where consumers can compare rates among nine independent companies offering pet insurance. Navigating plan options can be tricky; coverage plans offer a wide range of variables. No policies cover preexisting conditions. Many plans don't cover genetic conditions. Others exclude older dogs and cats, or large breeds of dogs, or breeds with a history of health conditions. Most have caps on the costs of treatment per year. All have deductibles. Premiums can vary depending on zip code. At Philadelphia-based Petplan, rates average about $18 per month (or $216 year) for a cat and about $33 a month (or $396 a year) for a dog. Smith chose Indiana-based PetFirst because it would accept his six-year-old Great Dane when the
life expectancy of such large breeds is less than 10 years. In addition to his $51 monthly premium, Smith pays a $50 deductible. PetFirst pays 90 percent of the bill for almost everything else: treatment, tests, prescription drugs, and routine vet exams. But, as in most plans, there also is a per-incident cap of $2,500 and an annual cap of $12,000. And clients must pay the full cost out of pocket and are then reimbursed by the company. “Pet insurance is for people who would do anything for their animals and don't have thousands to pay for it,” says Hemstreet. How about downsizing one's apartment to pay vet bills? That's what Chris and Natasha Ashton did to cover the $5,000 cost of treating their cat in 2001 when the couple was attending the Wharton School and their year-old cat, Bodey, was stricken with a mysterious kidney ailment. “They ran every test there was and thought she might need a kidney transplant,” said Natasha Ashton. “In retrospect, she was constipated.” The ordeal gave the Ashtons an idea for their graduate school project. Today the couple own Petplan, one of the nation's largest and fastest-growing pet insurance companies. They were able to offer greater coverage - such as coverage for hereditary conditions - than other plans because of the rich trove of actuarial information provided by their sister company, Petplan UK, which was founded 35 years ago. “It didn't make any sense to us that Americans spent more per capita on their pets but so few had insurance,” said Natasha Ashton. A 2010 study by Consumer Reports found that pet insurance may not be worth the cost for many pet owners. They might be better off just setting aside an emergency fund for unexpected expenses.
Still, insurance may offer peace of mind, industry officials say. One in three dogs gets sick or injured each year, according to Petplan. And for some pets with chronic conditions, in the long run insurance can save money. Last fall, Petplan joined with Capital Blue Cross in central Pennsylvania to offer pet insurance to its human clients in what may be the first such partnership. Blue Cross officials said they were persuaded by the statistics - $12 billion spent on veterinary care last year. “The amount Americans spend on pet care is no surprise when you consider 68 percent of the population has pets, and 98 percent of them consider pets part of the family,” said Stacy Balaban, Capital Blue Cross' senior director for strategic development. Shelters too - like Operation Ava in Philadelphia - are now offering 30 days of free health insurance with every pet that is adopted. The limited insurance offered under the Shelter Care plan, a division of Petcare insurance, helps defray costs of caring for a pet that may have contracted a contagious disease in its trip through the shelter system, said Ray Little, Operation Ava's director of rescue and adoptions. Trial health insurance coverage for shelter pets is a win-win, says Howard Nelson, president of Doggie Style, a Philadelphia pet store chain that operates Operation Ava shelter and adopts animals through its stores. For insurance companies, it may mean a customer for life. For homeless pets, he says, it may mean the difference between having a lifelong home or returning to the shelter, which 10 percent of the animals do. “People have a lot of expenses when they bring a pet home,” says Nelson. “To have illnesses covered, even a portion of the expense, can help keep animals in a home.”

A number of months ago, FCS students were invited to work with Valley Christian School (San Jose), after learning of that school’s participation in a space endeavor last year. Valley Christian partnered with NanoRacks of Houston, Texas, a firm that develops modular lab equipment and contracts with NASA to send science research projects to the International Space Station. Two other schools joined their collaborative effort, Whittier Christian and Faith Christian Academy in Coalinga. To make it more financially feasible, each of the four schools was responsible for paying a portion of the “rental fee,” approximately $10,000 apiece, for space on the rocket that transported their projects to the International Space Station. Many stepped up to help financially including Mr. Henryk Sloma who donated half the participation fee which includes launch and return of the project. Additionally, Mr. David Mendez, of Mendez Construction, parent of one of the students, underwrote the cost of the project’s components. During the summer, students began their project in earnest and according to one of the class members, Dongyub “Mike” Ryu, “We brainstormed, designed and built the micro-robot into a doable prototype.” Students worked for over five months to construct the robot - at school, home, weekends, evenings, and even during vacations. Their teacher says, “Students had to learn software, mechanics, electrical engineering and even public relations. They actually picked up a lot by themselves, and over time they became very adept at these types of projects and what experiments to do. It’s amazing to see what they’ve accomplished.” Ryu explains, “The best description is that the project is a Micro-Cube Lab with a Micro-Robot, riding on a grid of Teflon and computer disk drive rods.” Another classmate, Priya Natarajan adds, “It’s designed to move across a plane in an x-y direction.” The class chose a fitting name for their microrobot, PI, an acronym for “Programmable Intelligence.” PI’s dimensions are only 15 millimeters x 21
millimeters x 21 millimeters. “The basis of the experiment,” says Ryu, “is to see how the microrobot would behave in a micro-gravity (negative-gravity) environment. The Space Station’s gravity is one millionth of that of Earth’s, so if there’s no gravity; how will PI work and be controlled in space?” Student Micaehla May emphasizes their supposition, “We think PI will work because it’s low friction; in space, objects float, so it’s easier to move.” Miller, who has an electrical engineering and physics background, explains that the reason anything on Earth moves is because that object overcomes other forces which act on that object. “The usual forces that an object has to overcome are gravity, friction, and someone or something pushing or pulling on that object. However, on the ISS, gravity is negligible for PI. There are no other objects pushing or pulling on it, so that means that the only real force we need to overcome is friction,” says Miller. Not everything went smoothly during the development process. May says there was an initial setback. “I accidentally dropped the robot. It set us back a day but we reconstructed it and replaced some components. So, it actually made it function better!” FCS finished their project January 29, with just five hours to spare. The next step was to bubble wrap and Fed Ex their “precious cargo” to Valley Christian, where it was integrated with the other three schools’ projects on cement mix, ferrofluid and plant growth in space. Next stop was NanoRacks in Houston for re-testing. On January 31, NASA did a final “shake test” to ensure that everything stayed in place and on February 1, the micro-robot was sent to French Guiana. With the successful launch of the Ariane 5 ES rocket on March 23, the journey is expected to take between 10-15 days to reach the International Space Station. Besides transporting a payload of scientific experiments, the rocket is primarily a resupply vehicle for the six astronauts, from different nations, now living on board. Once the experiments arrive, the astronauts will activate them for 30 days of continuous use and
download data for the students to analyze every three days. The project should return to Earth in late April, riding with astronauts back to Siberia from the International Space Station. “We’ll be able to track and follow PI, to see how it does with commands that we gave it,” says student Liana Simpson. “If corrections need to be made, we can tweak our program a little bit.” Miller adds, “The project has a camera installed so that we can also check the status of actual movement versus expected movement.” The FCS students are writing a technology report and will await data from the ISS to see if the project functions as they thought. Information will be posted on their blog at http://fremontchristianiss.tumblr.com/ Ryu sums up the experience, saying, “The hardest thing is being able to apply what you’ve learned to make it work in real life. We encountered it at an earlier age by doing this project, more than you would have, to this magnitude in life,” declares Ryu. FCC Space Engineering students who participated in the PI project include: Kyle Diep, Peter Liu, Micaehla May, Madison Mendez, Micah Morris, Priya Natarajan, Dongyub “Mike” Ryu, Manraj Sekhon, Savraj Sekhon, Jasmine Shin, Liana Simpson, Erin Tang and Zaneta Zhao. Interested students apply in advance and are interviewed for the Space Engineering elective class. Teacher Matthew Miller meets with the FCS’s Superintendent, Dr. Tricia Meyer, to choose a team of students who will work best together. “I’m just excited that while we have a high school of 210 students, we have been able to provide this unique opportunity like Space Engineering,” states Superintendent Meyer.

Premises liability lawsuit resolved OFFICER KIM MACDONALD A recent court decision in Illinois involving premises liability was settled for $10 million dollars after a woman was killed in her apartment. The property management company and owner of the building are responsible for paying $1 million of that amount. The facts of the case are listed below: A Cook County jury has awarded $10 million to the family of a 21-year-old
woman who was beaten and strangled in her Edgewater apartment seven years ago. Melissa Dorner was found dead in her apartment in the 6100 block of North Winthrop Avenue on Jan. 24, 2005. She had moved to the apartment five months earlier, relocating there after a serial rapist attacked her the previous March. A former resident of the building, Roberto Ramirez, was detained in Mexico a year later and extradited back to Chicago. Police say his hair, some clothing and other
Suspects arrested for attempted vehicle theft SUBMITTED BY SGT. RAJ MAHARAJ, MILPITAS PD On March 28 at approximately 1:46 a.m., a citizen called the Mil-
pitas Police Department to report seeing two suspects trying to get into a white Acura Integra on the 1600 block of East Calaveras Boulevard. The caller indicated the
evidence were found at the murder scene. He pleaded guilty to her killing and is serving a 50-year sentence at the Menard Correctional Center. Lawyers had argued that Ramirez had been accused of assaulting another woman in the Winthrop building two months earlier. But the managers of the building did not follow up on the case, and Ramirez was allowed to remain living there, the lawyers argued. “Had the management company followed its own policies and
suspects never got into the vehicle and were last seen fleeing in a blue Honda Civic with other subjects inside. Milpitas Police officers responded and determined the suspects had damaged the door lock as they attempted to enter the Acura. Additional Milpitas Police officers responded to the area and started to search for the suspect vehicle and the suspects. At approximately

procedures in screening prospective tenants, Ramirez would never have been in the building,” said one of the lawyers for the family, Colin Dunn said. “Numerous policies were either violated or ignored.” Jurors reached their verdict after deliberating a day and a half. The jury assessed 90 percent liability against Ramirez and 10 percent to the building management, Wilmette Real Estate and Management, and the building owner, BCH Tower LLC of Chicago.

continued from page 22 speculation on oil markets suggest that it probably increases volatility, but that it doesn't have a major effect on average prices. Q: Are politicians to blame for high prices? A: Politicians can't do much to affect gasoline prices because the market for oil is global. Allowing increased drilling in the U.S. would contribute only small amounts of oil to world supply, not nearly enough to affect prices. The Associated Press conducted a statistical analysis of 36 years of monthly inflation-adjusted gasoline prices and U.S. domestic oil production and found no statistical correlation between oil that comes out of U.S. wells and the price at the pump. Over the last three years, domestic oil production has risen and gasoline prices rose sharply. In the 1980s and 1990s, U.S. production fell dramatically, and prices did too.
Releasing oil from emergency supplies held in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve could lead to a temporary dip in prices, but the market might instead take it as a signal that there is even less oil supply in the world than thought, and bid prices higher. Any price relief from a release of reserves would be temporary. Politicians can, however, help reduce the total amount drivers pay at the pump. They could lower gasoline taxes and they can help get more fuel efficient cars into showrooms by mandating fuel economy improvements or subsidizing the cost of alternative-fueled vehicles. The first new fuel economy standards since 1990 are just now going into effect. Last summer the Obama Administration and automakers agreed to toughen standards further in 2016. The U.S. fleet is now more fuel efficient
than ever, and gasoline demand in the U.S. has fallen for 52 straight weeks. The U.S. is never again expected to consume as much gasoline as it did in 2006. That means that while drivers are paying more than they used to, they would have been paying much more if they consumed as much gasoline as they did in the middle of the last decade. Q: Are prices high because the world is running out of oil? A: Not yet. Prices are high because there's not a lot of oil that can be quickly and easily brought to market to meet demand or potential supply disruptions from natural disasters or political turmoil. Like most commodities, the need for oil is so great that people will pay almost anything, in the short term, to get their hands on what might be the last available barrel at any given moment. But substantial new reserves of oil have
been found in shale formations in the United States, in the Atlantic deep waters off of Africa and South America, and on the east coast of Africa. Canada has enormous reserves, and production is growing fast there. The Arctic, which is largely unexplored, is thought to have 25 percent of the world's known reserves. All of this oil, however is hard to get and expensive to produce. That leads analysts to believe that oil will never stay much below $60 a barrel for an extended period again. As soon as oil prices fall, producers will stop developing this expensive oil until demand, and high prices, return. Current high prices have fueled a boom in oil exploration that is sure to bring more crude to the market in coming years. But it is not here yet, so for now, pump prices – and frustration – are expected to remain high.

Farshid Namei and Carol Ramos will be exhibiting their paintings at Mission Coffee Roasting Company during the month of April. Namei's formal education is in engineering and financial planning, but after 10 years in the corporate environment she left a very rewarding career to follow a lifelong dream - painting. Since then her paintings have been selected and awarded by many local, national and international juried competitions and exhibited in major galleries. Ramos is a retired teacher from the Fremont Unified School District. She has been an art student for several years, taking classes around the Bay Area in drawing, watercolor, and pastels. Her work has been accepted in several juried shows, and recently in 2011 she was accepted in the State Painting Competition at the Triton Museum. Ramos is inspired by her many travels to draw and paint people and the countryside around the world. There will be a hors d'oeuvres reception for the two artists on Sunday, April 22 from 3 p.m. – 5 p.m. with music provided by Rudy Ramos and a few songs sung by Mike Todd.
