Award, the highest award a Girl Scout can earn. Now that the garden is complete, Kimberly will teach a group of students at Parkmont to take care of the garden and complete her report for Girl Scouts. Soon she will be awarded the Girl Scout Gold Award, placing her in a very select group of young women.
In the middle of Parkmont Elementary School where portables once stood, flowers are blooming. For the past two years after the portables were removed, this little area of the school grounds has been fenced off to keep the students away from the remaining rubble. Girl Scout Kimberly Henderson had a vision of what could be done in the area. Under the guidance of teacher Catherine Strommen, Kimberly designed a sensory garden. She has spent months planning and implementing her vision. Kimberly obtained donations and discounts on materials and plants from local businesses and Parkmont families then coordinated volunteers. Over several weekends, about 100 students and family members came out to help build the garden which is separated into four sections sight, smell, touch, and sound - to be used as an outdoor science classroom. Kimberly, an 11th grade student at Kimberly Henderson helps a young Girl Scout plant grass in Parkmont Washington High School, took on this Elementary School's Sensory Garden sound area. project as part of her Girl Scout Gold

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 the community to go to court to observe and show support for Tri-City Voice.
We will give you the court information as soon as we get it.

40 days he spent aboard the NRP Sagres, a school-ship under the Portuguese flag. This three-masted “tall ship” was originally built for the German Navy in 1937, confiscated by the United States following WWII then sold to Brazil in 1948. In service as school-ship Guanabara with the Brazilian Navy, she was finally sold to the Portuguese Navy in 1961. The third ship in the Portuguese
Navy to carry the name, Sagres remains in service to this day. Macau-based Portuguese writer Magalhães de Castro is the author of numerous books and a video documentary about his travels in Tibet, Nepal and northeast India. He participated in Sagres’ voyage from Goa to Alexandria then Lisbon and chronicled the intensive daily work of 146 men as they faced the threat of Somali pi-
SUBMITTED BY RENA DEIN A special talkie matinee, “Man of Aran” (1934, Gainsborough Pictures), will be screened at the Niles Silent Film Museum on Sunday, April 29. A poetic triumph and world success, this film established the romantic mystique of Aran that has endured for eighty years. Non-fiction filmmaking pioneer Robert Flaherty's first sound feature elaborates on themes presented in his two previous major works, “Nanook of the North” and “Moana.” In all four of his major features, including “Louisiana Story,” Flaherty explored the relationship of man to his natural environment. This film was shot between 1931 and 1933 on the Aran Islands, west of Ireland's Galway Bay. Flaherty's screen "family" was actually composed of three unrelated islanders chosen for their photogenic appeal: Colman "Tiger" King is the title character, a no-nonsense fisherman, Maggie Dirrane plays his wife, and Michael Dillane his young son. Flaherty is more interested in recording the natural beauty of the islands, which are largely rock, and the surrounding sea than in presenting any formal information on the lives of the islanders. Life here is as elemental as it was for the Eskimos in “Nanook” and the South Seas islanders in “Moana.”
rates in the middle of the Indian Ocean and Gulf of Aden, waters of the Red Sea, and a protracted storm in the Mediterranean that produced 12 meter high waves and winds raging up to 120 km/hr. This exhibition, accompanied by a video, will reveal a unique experience aboard an historic sailing ship, commemorating 50 years of service by the NRP Sagres as a school-ship under the Portuguese flag. NRP Sagres has visited Macau on four separate occasions: January 1979, December 1983, August and November 1993.

Though the film came under fire from some critics at the time of its release for not presenting the social conditions that hampered the lives of the islanders – many of them renting from absentee landlords indifferent to their economic well-being – it has come to be accepted as work of film poetry rather than a social document. “How the Myth Was Made: A Study of Robert Flaherty’s Man of Aran” (1978, George C. Stoney Associates) will also be shown; George C. Stoney returned to Aran forty years after Flaherty to examine how “Man of Aran” affected the island and its people. Both films will be introduced and discussed in person by W. Jack Coogan, Director of the Robert and Frances Flaherty Study Center of the School of Theology at Claremont, California, since 1972.

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
The Bookworm
So what are you gonna do after college? That’s the question that’s irritated you for the better part of eight months. Everybody’s been asking you and if you knew, you’d tell them. The thought of taking a job just to have a job makes you feel awful. You can’t imagine getting up Monday through Friday to do something you hate while other people are doing jobs you’d kill to have. So, short of violence, how can you snag a once-in-a-lifetime position? Read the new book “I Got My Dream Job and So Can You” by Pete Leibman, and you might find out. What would you do with 5 million minutes? Work. That’s the answer because 40 years of work equals around 5 million minutes on the job, maybe more. And now that you know that, you can understand why it’s worth taking a few minutes now to ensure that you enjoy every one of those 5 million. Author Pete Leibman says that the key to getting your dream job is simple: S.I.M.P.L.E. But first, you need to learn to smile and nod and disregard most of the career advice you get from family and friends, because it’s wrong. Then, Start. Quit making excuses, stop blaming the economy and understand that you can do something or do nothing. Choose wisely and act accordingly. Know what you want by Identifying your dream job. Start with the big picture and ask yourself some important questions. Figure out where you want to be. Get yourself a Makeover. Learn to stand tall and confident. Pay attention to personal details, polish your look, and be sure you don’t reek of cigarettes or cologne.

The Bookworm is Terri Schlichenmeyer. Terri has been reading since she was 3 years old and she never goes anywhere without a book. She lives on a hill in Wisconsin with two dogs and 11,000 books. Plan where you’re going by networking and asking for referrals. Look for your dream job because it’s not like pizza: it won’t be delivered to you. Use your contacts, networks, LinkedIn, and know who not to approach. Finally, Execute your plan. Do your homework before an interview. Know the deadly sins of interviewing. And once you land the job, B.E.P.R.O. Think the end of college means you have to take whatever job comes along? Not so, says author Pete Leibman. In “I Got My Dream Job and So Can You,” he explains – among other things - how he landed his own fantasy position amid an economic downturn. I found a lot of interesting observations in this book, and tips that would be extremely useful for any job-seeker. On the other hand, there are a lot of basic, common-sensical instructions that you’ll probably already know if you’ve ever held a job, and that may test your attention span. Still, reminders are good - especially when you absolutely, positively need to stand out and shine. Meant for new college grads, I think this book also makes a nice gift for work-bound high school graduates or for adults who are sick of the daily grind and want more from their work lives. If that’s you, then reading “I Got My Dream Job and So Can You” is what you need to do. c.2012, Amacom $15.95 / $18.95 Canada 246 pages, includes index

Bill aids local florists SUBMITTED BY JEFF BARBOSA A bill by Assemblyman Bob Wieckowski (D-Fremont), backed by Chambers of Commerce and local florists throughout the state, passed the Assembly’s Business and Professions Committee on April 10, 2012 on an 8-0 vote. The bill, AB 1581, seeks to combat consumer deception by requiring floral retailers who use local phone numbers or local names to include their address and notice of their place of business in their advertisements. Larger floral retailers often misrepresent their geographical location in their advertising to appeal to consumers who want to buy locally. “At its core, this bill is about arming the consumer with more information,” Wieckowski said. “By providing the actual business address, consumers who wish to shop locally will have the appropriate information to make that decision when placing their orders.” The bill is supported by the Fremont, Hayward, Milpitas, San Leandro and Simi Valley chambers of commerce, along with several state small business organizations and floral associations. Twenty-eight other states have passed similar laws. In 2011, Texas passed a similar bill. Fremont Flowers owner Dirk Lorenz appeared before the committee in support of the bill. Lorenz submitted the bill idea as part of Assemblyman Wieckowski’s “There Ought to be a Law” contest.

SACRAMENTO A bill that would have prohibited California state employees from making more than the governor has died in committee. Sen. Joel Anderson proposed capping salaries at the roughly $174,000 paid to the governor. Anderson, a Republican from La Mesa, says the bill is needed to limit what he calls “lavish state salaries” that can be several times the governor's pay once employees are compensated for accumulated vacation time and other benefits. He cites a prison doctor who was paid $785,000 last year, a prison psychiatrist paid $566,000 and a University of California president paid $560,000. He says 9,000 employees were paid more than the governor last year. SB1368 failed on a 6-7 vote Tuesday in the Senate Government Organization Committee. Anderson says all votes against the bill were from Democrats.
WASHINGTON (AP), President Barack Obama pushed Congress Tuesday to give oil market regulators more muscle to deter price manipulation by speculators, the latest White House response to determined Republican attacks on administration energy policies amid high gas prices at the pump. Obama wants Congress to strengthen federal supervision of oil markets, increase penalties for market manipulation and empower regulators to increase the amount of money energy traders are required to put behind their transactions. “We can't afford a situation where some speculators can reap millions while millions of American families get the short end of the stick,” Obama said at the White House. The plan is more likely to draw sharp election-year distinctions with Republicans than have an immediate effect on prices at the pump. The measures seek to boost spending for Wall Street enforcement at a time when congressional Republicans are seeking to limit the reach of federal financial regulations. The president's $52 million proposal comes as Republicans have been hammering Obama on his energy policies, recognizing the political cost of high gas prices on the president. Obama's plan would turn the tables on Republicans by taking aim at Wall Street's role in the oil price chain. Obama was joined during his Rose Garden remarks by Attorney General Eric Holder, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Gary Gensler, and Federal Trade Commission Chairman Jon Leibowitz. The president didn't shy away from casting the issue in partisan terms, drawing attention to Republican opposition to a plan to end tax breaks for oil and gas companies. “So here's a chance to make amends,” he said. continued on page 28

BY CHRIS KAHN AP ENERGY WRITER NEW YORK (AP), First Solar Inc. will lay off 2,000 workers and close its factory in Germany following a collapse in solar panel prices that has erased the industry's profits and forced some smaller companies into bankruptcy. America's biggest solar manufacturer said the layoffs amount to 30 percent of its global workforce. It's an about-face for a company that doubled the number of employees at the Frankfurt, Germany, plant to more than 1,200 just last year. First Solar will also shutter some production in Malaysia. It plans additional job cuts in Europe and the U.S. “The solar market has changed, and so must we,” Mark Widmar, First Solar's chief financial officer, told analysts in a conference call. The price of solar panels, which generate electricity from sunlight, has plummeted recently. An influx of Chinese competitors has led to a rapid buildup in supply. At the same time governments in Europe, the biggest market for solar power, are reducing generous subsidy programs that had fueled demand. From March to December last year, solar panel prices dropped 50 percent, said Aaron Chew, an analyst with the Maxim Group. Cheaper solar is good news for con-

sumers, but manufacturers are struggling to stay afloat. Last year, Solyndra LLC of Fremont, Calif., Evergreen Solar Inc. of Marlboro, Mass., and Spectrawatt Inc. of Hopewell Junction, N.Y. all declared bankruptcy. “Nobody's making money in this business right now,” Chew said. Analysts said job cuts, factory closures and even mergers are to be expected in a relatively young industry that still welcomes new players every year. They see the industry following in the footsteps of television and computer makers by locating factories in Asia, where labor costs are low and governments provide few regulatory obstacles. “It's a very healthy thing,” Jefferies & Co. analyst Jesse Pichel said. “This is a shakeout period for solar in which uncompetitive technologies are getting kicked out.” First Solar specializes in “thin film” solar modules that are cheaper than those made by competitors. But the decline in global panel prices has eroded its status as the industry's low-cost leader. First Solar's modules are also less efficient than others, limiting their use. For instance, they're ideal for large-scale projects that deliver power to the electrical grid, but they less effective for smaller systems used on rooftops. The company lost $39.5 million in 2011 after earning $664.2 million in 2010. Its shares have dropped nearly

85 percent in the past 12 months. They rose about 10.3 percent Tuesday to $22.96 after the company announced the cuts. “It is essential that we reduce production and decrease expenses,” First Solar Chairman and CEO Mike Ahearn in a statement. “These actions will enable us to focus our resources on developing the markets where we expect to generate significant growth in coming years,” such as the U.S. and China. First Solar expects the restructuring to reduce its manufacturing costs by $30$60 million this year and another $100$120 million a year afterward. It will book a charge of $245 to $370 million, mostly in its first-quarter results. Analysts said First Solar needs to cut costs even more and demonstrate that its panels are as durable as its competitors. Pichel said that as prices continue to fall, consumers will likely favor more efficient, polysilicon panels made by other solar companies. Goldman Sachs analyst Brian Lee downgraded First Solar to “Neutral” from “Buy” and cut 2014 earnings expectations to $4 from $5.75 per share. Meanwhile, sales of solar panels and related equipment should keep rising, but nowhere near the blistering pace of the past several years. Solar installations are expected to increase by 3.7 percent this year, compared with a 49.7 percent increase from 2010 to 2011, according to energy research group GTM Research.

BY BIFF JONES The Ohlone College Renegades' fast pitch softball team will not win its tenth straight Coast Conference North (CCN) Division title this year. However, it will finish in second place and receive one of twelve automatic bids to the sixteen-team California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA) Northern Regional Post-Season Tournament. On April 19, Ohlone traveled to Cupertino to take on the third place De Anza College Dons in a game that De Anza desperately needed to win. It was De Anza's final regular season contest and they were playing for one of four wild card bids to the CCCAA North Region Playoffs. Sophomore Katy Bihl would get the start for Ohlone while Casey Showalter started for De Anza. After the Renegades were set down in the top of the first inning, the Dons got on the board in the bottom of the first on an Ohlone error, a single and a two-out double for a 2-0 lead. Ohlone came right back in the top of the second on singles by Kaley Marden, Shelby Fowler and Jaime Costa to cut De Anza's lead to 2-1. Ohlone would take the lead 3-2 in the third inning as center fielder Ashley Vignola led off with a single followed by shortstop Mariah Nisbet reaching on a Don throwing error when laying down a sacrifice bunt attempt. After an out, Marden walked to load the bases, which was followed by RBI singles from Lauren Ermitano and Fowler to give the Renegades the lead. De Anza plated three runs in their half of the fifth inning on two walks, two singles and another Renegade error for a 5-3 lead. Again, Ohlone answered in the next half of the inning when Fowler led off with a walk, stole second, advanced to third on a fly ball out by Costa, and scored on a single by Bihl to narrow the lead to 5-4. The top of the seventh inning saw the Renegades tie the score at 5-5 when Nisbet opened the inning with a single and was sacrificed to second by second baseman Sarah Ragusa. Nisbet then scored on a double by Marden. The game would go into extra innings after freshman pitcher Brittany Wright's shut down bottom of the seventh. The Renegades then exploded for five runs in the top of the eighth inning on singles by Renelle Traylor and Wright; Vignola reaching on a hit-by-the-pitch; doubles from Nisbet and Marden; and a Don error, which allowed Ermitano to reach base. After Wright's second shut-down inning in the bottom of the eighth, Ohlone achieved a 10-5 victory to improve its record to 14-3 in CCN and 26-11 overall. The Renegades will find out on April 28 who and where they play for the first round of the CCCAA North Regional. It will be a best two-outof-three format with game one on Saturday, May 5 and game two the next day. The top eight of the 16 seeded teams will host the first round of games with one playing 16, two playing 15, etc. Ohlone had been ranked fifth or sixth recently in the RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) so will probably host a first round game.

Men’s Volleyball Logan defeats Kennedy 3-0 SUBMITTED BY COACH STEVE BURMASTER A very much improved Kennedy team came into Guy Emanuele Pavilion April 24 expecting to play well and challenge the "Colts" for a shot at second place in the Mission Valley Athletic League. Despite a lot of firepower and good defense by Kennedy, the "Colts" prevailed by coming back from deficits in all three games to win: 25-22, 25-23, 28-26. The difference was the mental toughness and execution of plays at key points in each of the games. In addition, the "Colts" proved to have better ball control from all of the members on the floor as evidenced by a diving, sprawling one arm stab in the back row my Sophomore Middle Blocker, Khrystien Ocampo that was a "game changer" in the important second game of the match with the Colt's striving to regain the lead late in the game... his dig propelled the team to three straight unanswered points and the Game 2 victory! Later, in Game 3, Khrystien dove hard for another dig while in the front row and suffered a deep bruise to the edge of his palm. Alvin Nguyen was called in as a replacement and did a marvelous job of patrolling the net and containing some of Kennedy's most powerful hitters. "Go Colts"!

Statement from New Haven Unified School District
Shooting near Logan High School
SUBMITTED BY RICK LAPLANTE
On Tuesday April 24, 2012, approximately 12:09 p.m., UCPD emergency dispatch center received a report of a shooting that occurred at 14th Street and H Street in Union City. Responding officers located a male victim suffering from gunshot wounds on H Street near a driveway to Logan High School. The victim was medically treated by Alameda County Fire and EMS personnel and transported to a local hospital. A potential suspect was observed by witnesses driving a full-sized, construction-type, pick-up truck, white in color, with racks similar to lumber racks. The alleged suspect is described as a Hispanic male, early 20's, stocky or husky build, short brown hair, light brown beard. Witnesses described the suspect wearing a bright yellow construction type vest. UCPD and New Haven Unified School District administrators placed Logan High School and Searles Elementary School on temporary lockdown due to their proximity to the shooting scene. The lockdown was lifted this afternoon and school operations have returned to normal. District officials sent out an automated message advising parents in regard to student pick-up procedures. If you have any information related to this case please call the Union City Police Department's Press Information Officer, Ben Homer, at (510) 675-5225. If you wish to use the anonymous tip line please call (510) 675-5207 or E-mail information to tips@unioncity.org
The District’s primary concerns at this point are first, for the victim and his family, and second, for our students, their families and our staff at James Logan High. We would like to urge folks to keep the victim and his family in their thoughts and prayers. We also would like to assure everyone connected with the high school that Logan is a safe campus. This incident occurred two blocks away from the school, not at the school itself. Our lockdown procedures today worked as designed, our students behaved in exemplary fashion, and parents who came to the school to pick up their children were patient and respectful. We also would like to thank the Union City Police Department for their swift and professional response. We will cooperate in any way we can with the investigation.

ithout the diligence of Sue WebberBrown, a former district attorney investigator with Butte County, the plight of children who live among addicts and the drug labs they create may have continued to be ignored. But in the 1990’s, when the methamphetamine lab culture was at its peak, Webber-Brown recognized these exposed children were at increased risk of death, injury, sexual abuse and other forms of physical, emotional abuse and neglect. Her mission became to promote cooperation between Law Enforcement, the District Attorney’s Office, Child Protective Services, medical and health services and County Probation so that during drug lab raids, the welfare of children came first. Prior to these efforts, law enforcement often saw children as obstacles to their drug lab investigation. Child Services workers would not respond to scenes and children were often handed over to the nearest neighbor or relative without background checks or home visits. Often, it was never known if a child was going into another drug home or worse yet, a home with a registered sex offender. In addition, the serious health risks to these children are numerous when they have been exposed to the toxic chemicals used in the production of methamphetamine. Even in homes without meth labs or chemicals there are hazards endangering children which stem from the use, sale or manufacture of any drug. Users often live a lifestyle “incompatible with a proper regard for human life.” This usually leaves a child exposed to less quantifiable hazards: drug trafficking; sex offender registrants; pornography; weapons, raids by law enforcement which may result in gunfire. Deputy district attorneys
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
would neither file nor prosecute child endangerment charges, often because the method and type of evidence col-
Crandall, Detective Rodney Little, Detective Teresa Martinez and Officer Heather Huiskens have tirelessly taken up the cause of Drug Endangered Children. They have focused on getting support from law enforcement heads and convincing them to implement a policy and train their personnel. In 2011 the District Attorney’s and all social workers at the Department of Children and Family Services received DEC training along with Alameda County Probation.
Sgt. Greg Crandall & Lt. Kim Peterson lection for the crime of Child Endangerment was insufficient. In short, there was no coordinated effort towards the necessary goal to get kids out of dope homes and hold people accountable for their crimes. James Hodges, a lieutenant with the Alameda County Sheriff’s department in charge of the northern narcotics unit learned about Sue Webber’s efforts and led the charge to bring all the various agencies to the table to hammer out a protocol. Hodges’ passion and understanding of the program was the force needed to propel and educate local law enforcement into taking care of the children first while conducting the drug and child abuse/neglect investigation simultaneously. Hodges completed the DEC (Drug Endangered Children) protocol in 2007, just as he was about to retire, which is when the Fremont Police Department took over as the lead agency. From 2008 to the present, Lieutenant Kim Petersen, Sergeant Gregg
Lieutenant Petersen has been successful in putting together a Drug Endangered Children Response Team consisting of a deputy district attorney, law enforcement and a child welfare worker. And because of her efforts, illegal drug manufacturers are finally being held accountable for endangering their children. If you, as a concerned citizen, observe or suspect drug lab activity in your neighborhood, it should be reported, to your local police non-emergency line. However, if you believe a child is in danger, the call should be placed to 911. If the investigation that follows reveals a child is in danger, your local officers will enlist the response of appropriate DEC Team members. If you suspect any suspicious activity in any Fremont neighborhood relating to drug manufacturing, please leave a confidential message at (510) 790-6800.

Even before the White House announced Obama's plans, House Speaker John Boehner called it a political ploy and criticized the president for not using authority he already has to deal with such problems. “The president has all the tools available to him if he believes that the oil market is being manipulated,” Boehner told reporters Tuesday. “Where's his Federal Trade Commission? Where is the SEC? He's got agencies there. So instead of just another political gimmick, why doesn't he put his
administration to work to get to the bottom of it?” Boehner used the acronym for the Securities and Exchange Commission, whose duties include regulating markets. Senior administration officials who put together the proposal stopped short of blaming market manipulation for rising gas prices, but said they wanted to curtail the ability of speculators to take unlawful advantage of oil price volatility. “The price is affected by a variety of factors,” said Brian Deese, the director of the White House's
National Economic Council. “Obviously, instability in the Middle East as well as growth projections across the globe are affecting global oil markets all the time.” Meanwhile, the average price of a gas at the pump has dropped slightly but is still higher than it was at this time last year. “None of these steps by themselves will bring gas prices down overnight,” Obama said. “But it will prevent market manipulation and make sure we're looking out for American consumers.” At issue is the increasing role of investment in oil futures contracts by pension funds, mutual funds, hedge funds, exchange traded funds and other investors. Much of that money is betting that oil prices will rise. Analysts say it is possible that such speculation has somewhat inflated the price of oil. At the same time, investors can also bet that prices will go down – indeed, speculators have been credited for low natural gas prices. Studies of the effects of speculation on oil markets indicate that it
April 27, 2012
probably increases volatility, but doesn't have a major effect on average prices. Citing such evidence, Charles T. Drevna, president of the American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers, said refiners count on the financial markets to hedge against higher crude oil costs. He urged Obama to instead focus on transporting oil from Canada through the Keystone XL pipeline that Obama has blocked. Obama's plan this time calls on Congress to: – Increase six-fold the surveillance and enforcement staff of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to better deter oil market manipulation. – Increase spending on technology to provide better oversight and surveillance of energy markets. – Increase civil and criminal penalties against firms that engage in market manipulation from $1 million to $10 million. – Give the Commodity Futures Trading Commission authority to increase the amount of money that
a trader must put up to back a trading position. The administration officials said such authority could help limit disruptions in energy markets. The White House effort comes as Republicans have talked of limiting the reach of a financial regulation overhaul that Congress passed in 2010 over their objections. Though the House Republican budget, which calls for sharp reductions in government programs, does not specify reduction in spending by the trading commission, the administration officials said that if the cuts were applied the commission would lose more than five times what it spends on regulating energy markets. The debate will pit Republicans who blame high gasoline prices on Obama who, in turn, blames Republicans for coddling Wall Street. ––– Associated Press writer Alan Fram contributed to this report.

Kidnapper arrested SUBMITTED BY MILPITAS PD On April 16, 2012, a reported kidnapping had been captured on a surveillance video, at a local gas station, in Union City. The suspect, later identified as Eframe Joseph Haile of San Jose, was observed chasing down a female and violently forcing her into his vehicle. The female victim was eventually located, however Haile remained at large. An arrest warrant had been issued for Haile for kidnapping and false imprisonment. The Union City Police Department sent out a “Be On the Lookout” bulletin for Haile and his vehicle to local police departments. On April 19, detectives from the Milpitas Special Investigations Unit, spotted Haile’s vehicle, a 2001 Audi A6, parked at a local hotel in the City of Milpitas. The detectives began conducting surveillance and spotted a subject matching the description of Haile on the balcony near a second floor hotel room. Milpitas police officers responded to the area and quickly set up a perimeter around the hotel. As officers attempted to make contact at the hotel room, Haile jumped out of the rear second story window and began running through an adjacent business parking lot. Perimeter units quickly spotted Haile and detained him, at gunpoint, where he was eventually taken into custody without further incident. Joseph Eframe Haile was booked into the Santa Clara County Jail for his outstanding warrants and the Union City Police Department was notified of his capture.

ire Station #1, on the corner of Mowry and Argonaut, is considered the central hub of the Fremont Fire Department. The station houses a paramedic engine company staffed by three personnel and a paramedic truck company, also staffed with three personnel. It is, by far, the busiest station in Fremont with over 4,000 calls a year between both companies. As a rookie paramedic/firefighter, my first goal was to pass firefighting specific training on Truck 51 at station #1. Since I was brand new to the department, I worked as the fourth firefighter on the truck so that I was watched over and didn’t have too much responsibility. The goal of the two month truck training period was to teach me Fremont Fire Department operations on incidents such as structure fires, grass fires, vehicle extrications, and technical rescues. It’s an interesting experience, walking into a firehouse for the first time as a rookie paramedic/firefighter. Generally speaking, crews are tightly knit socially because of time spent working 24-hour shifts together; over time your coworkers become like family. But that only happens over time and as a rookie, I had to prove myself both on calls and working around the firehouse. Luckily for me, even though I worked with one of the most experienced crews on the department, they were open, friendly and didn’t treat me like a complete outsider. My first morning on the job, my Captain and senior firefighter sat down with me and went over
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
all that was expected. They explained how I would be involved in training, call response and station duties over the next two months. A goal was for me to work at the training tower on Stevenson Boulevard 3-4 hours every day, learning hands-on operations, in preparation for a written and manipulative test at the end of the two month rotation. Over the next two months, countless hours were spent drilling on everything from throwing ladders and pulling hose to ropes and ventilation techniques during structure fires. In addition to training, Truck 51 also responded to about 3-4 calls a day. While most of the calls were for emergency medical response, we also responded to several vehicle accidents, fire alarm activations, and structure fires. Structure fires are probably the most intense and labor intensive incidents; after being on the job for a couple of weeks, I was involved with my first structure fire in a Fremont uniform. At around 2 p.m. on a weekday, a single family home in Niles caught fire, probably caused by an electrical short. The fire was fairly extensive involving two bedrooms and the hallway. Luckily, the residents were alerted by their smoke alarms and escaped out the first floor windows of the house. Engine 52 from Niles arrived very quickly, made entry into the house and started putting the fire out with their 1 3/4 inch hose while the crew from Engine 51 performed a search to make sure no one was inside. Simultaneously, my crew on Truck 51 threw ladders to the roof and cut a ventilation hole so crews working inside could attack the fire and perform rescue in a more tenable environment. I was pretty impressed with how smoothly and coordinated the fire was extinguished and, even though the family lost some of their possessions and part of their house in the fire, we were able to save the majority of the house and its contents; no one was injured. It was a great introduction to fire ground operations in Fremont. At the end of my two-month rotation on Truck 51, I felt completely prepared when the day of the big test arrived. The test lasted 3-4 hours at the training tower and was very comprehensive assessing all the skills I had learned over the previous two months. I was relieved to find that I passed and excited to learn that I would be moved to station #3 in Irvington for the next phase of my probation.

Facha’s gem highlights MSJHS Baseball SUBMITTED BY KENNY JACOBY The Mission San Jose (MSJ) varsity baseball team ended a week of hard-fought play with a 1-1 record, edging out American 1-0 and falling short to Washington 5-2. The game at American on April 18 was a textbook pitchers' duel, as both sides combined for only five hits during the contest. MSJ’s Brandon Facha crafted a gem, throwing a two-hit complete game with zero walks. Facha needed only 62 pitches in providing MSJ with a much needed win. American’s starting

pitcher, Joey Hockett, went for six strong innings, allowing only three hits and amassing seven strikeouts. MSJ took on its rival, Washington, on April 20, but suffered a disappointing 5-2 loss in a well-fought battle by both teams. Each side came out of the gate strong, with MSJ leading 2-1 after the first inning. However, it was Washington who prevailed as their hitting stayed alive late in the game, while MSJ could not put together a hit after the third inning. Although MSJ’s defense was solid for most of the game, Washington’s offense proved to be stronger. A double in the fourth from Knight scored Nico Estevez, who had been walked. Doubles from Sewell and Jacobs off of Donoghue in the fifth inning gave Washington a 4-2 lead. Havard replaced Donoghue on the mound following Jacobs’ double, and although he kept Washington in check, MSJ could not come back from the deficit. Sewell pitched the complete game for Washington, allowing two earned runs, as he walked four, struck out seven MSJ batters and amassed 140 pitches.

SUBMITTED BY INDIA COMMUNITY CENTER On April 29, three organizations, India Community Center along with the Pakistani American Culture Center and The 1947 Partition Archive are teaming up to debut a Silicon Valley first: the Indus Heritage Day. Indus Heritage Day aims to celebrate shared South Asian histories. During this event, the focus is the ancient Indus Valley, a highly advanced but little known South Asian civilization that was at its height 5,000 years ago. Children and adults alike will be educated about the Indus Valley through a series of craft activities, a walk through, a documentary film screening, and keynote lecture by world renowned Indus Valley archaeologist Professor Jonathan Mark Kenoyer. The educational event is completely free to the public. The day will unfold with breakfast at 10 a.m. Through hands on activities that include Indus hat, jewelry, and seal making, children will learn about the undeciphered ancient Indus script, intriguing details about the ancient Indus trade routes with Mesopotamia and Egypt, along with technology and fashion of that time. The event will also feature an ‘ancient photo booth’ and an ancient city ‘modelhome’ walk through. Local henna artist, Tisha, will feature Indus Valley themed henna designs. At 11:30 p.m., budding Pakistani documentary filmmaker Saqib Mausoof will screen his upcoming documentary film “In Search of Meluhha: Untold story of the Indus Civilization.” The film screening will be followed by a lecture at noon entitled “Ancient Cities of the Indus Valley” by
Page 33
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
Professor Kenoyer. This talk will present an overview of the major cities of the Indus civilization in Pakistan and India, along with a discussion of smaller settlements and distant resource areas. The important features that distinguish this civilization will be examined including settlement organization, technology, writing, art and religion. The talk will also discuss the evidence for contacts and trade between the Indus region and other adjacent areas, such as peninsular India, Central Asia, the Arabian gulf, Iran and Mesopotamia. Additional areas of discussion will include the decline and transformation of this civilization and its major contributions to later cultural traditions of South Asia. The event will close with children from Xpressions dance company performing Indus regional folk dances including Chalo Mela Ma, a regional dance from Rajasthan and Gujarat that is linked to the unique rituals and prayers of these geographies. A second dance, Dandiya Raas is derived from Ras Leela, performed by Lord Krishna and Gokul and Vrindavan with the Gopies (cowgirls). The distinguishing feature of the Raas is the short sticks (dandiya) representing the sword of Durga carried by the dancers, which they strike in rhythm. Raas is danced by men and women, sometimes together. Majority of the Raas songs are in praise of Krishna and it builds in tempo as it progresses, leading to an exciting finish. Indus Heritage Day is expected to educate children (and adults alike) on South Asian history and inspire study and preservation by the current and future generations. The event is sponsored by a number of local businesses and individuals, as well as art and culture organizations including the Global Heritage Fund and Society for Art & Cultural Heritage of India (SACHI). The event is free but pre-registration is required. Sign up online at www.indiacc.org. For more information, call (408) 934-1130.

Lakin’s novel “Someone to Blame” won the 2009 Zondervan First Novel competition. She specializes in contemporary psychological mysteries and allegorical fantasy. The writers group meets on the fourth Saturday of the month from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. in Room 216 at DeVry University, 6600 Dumbarton Circle in Fremont. Meetings are open to the public. Fremont Area Writers is a branch of the 1,500-member California Writers Club. To find out more, log on to http://www.cwc-fremontareawriters.org/ or call Richard Scott at (510) 791-8639.

ver 850 Northern California students competed in the Northern California Scholastic Chess Championships at the Santa Clara Convention Center the weekend of April 22 and 23. As expected, the team competition was dominated by the two Northern California Schools that excelled at the Nationals last year and dominated the State meet last year. Berkeley Chess School (not an official school for the competition so not involved in team competition) also excelled by grabbing two individual championships. The only California Schools to ever win a National Championship in K-5 or K-6 are Regnart (K-5 champions 2011) and Mission San Jose Elementary (MSJE; K-6 champions in 2008). At the 2011 Nationals, MSJE had four top four finishes in K-1 (3rd), K-3 (4th), K-5 (4th) and K-6 (2nd). No other school has ever had four top four finishes at the nationals. At the 2011 state meet, MSJE won K-3 and K-5 and was second to Regnart in K-6. In high school competition, Mission San Jose High School (all seven members were MSJE graduates) trailed Monta Vista High of Cupertino all weekend. In the last round, MSJHS had a three point round to overtake Monta Vista and win by a half point. In the critical game, Mission’s Vincent Tian (1755) upset Monta Vista’s Kevin Rosenberg (1982) to give Mission a half point victory (16 to 15.5). In addition to Vincent, the MSJHS team consisted of James Kwok, Arthur Liou, and Hemang Jangle. Vincent and Hemang are students of Richard Shorman as are most of the top MSJE players. Arthur and James are students of Michael Aigner. These are the two of the top chess teachers in Northern California. MSJE dominated the elementary grades (won 6 of 7 grades) at the Northern California grade level championships in December. It was no surprise that MSJE also dominated the elementary school sections at these championships. Alvin Kong, Eric Zhu, and Shalin Shah have been stars for the MSJE chess team since they were in kindergarten. Two years ago Sayan Das earned his way onto the chess team and fought his way to the top of the ladder. Suddenly MSJE had four stars in one grade. All four of these stars are students of
MSJE winning K-6 Championship team. l to r Sayan Das, (Joe Lonsdale) Alvin Kong, Shalin Shah, Eric Zhu, Kavin Kumararvel Richard Shorman. As expected, this group led the MSJE chess team to an overwhelming victory in the K-6 Championship section. Shalin Shah and Sayan Das each scored five points and tied for second place. Alvin Kong and Eric Zhu each scored 4.5 points and tied for fourth place. The team competition in K-5 was again dominated by MSJE. Amit Sant scored 4.5 points and took 5th place. Drake Lin scored four points and tied for sixth place. Overall MSJE scored 13.5 points versus 7.5 for the second place team (Willet from Davis). Regnart was not able to field a full team in either K-5 or K-6 championship. They did field a strong K-6 JV (Junior varsity, for players with rating below 900.) team and won the JV Championship 13.0 to 10.5 for second place MSJE. Since MSJE had a total of 13 players in K-5 and K-6
Championship, it was not surprising that they were beaten in K-6 JV. Again MSJE dominated the team competition in the K-3 Championship Division. Going into the tournament we thought we had a reasonable chance of winning both the individual and team championship in K-3. MSJE first grader Rishith Susarla (1427) was the second highest rated student in the field once Ben Rood left the section. However when Rishith lost his second round game to Amir Dhami (1243 Chadbourne) the chance of an individual championship looked very dim. However the second rated MSJE player in the section (John Chan 1384, the seventh highest rated player in the section.) came through with 5.5 points and a clear first place finish. The MSJE K-3 team won with 13.5 points,
more than twice the second place team. The only close team championships were the oldest (high school) and the youngest (Kindergarten). The Kindergarten championship was even closer than the High School Championship which Mission High won by 0.5 points. MSJE and Vallejo tied with 13.5 points. MSJE got the first place team trophy on tie breaks, but the teams are co-champions. Each team also had an individual winner as Kevin Pan from MSJE and David Inglesias from Vallejo both scored a perfect 5.0 to win the title of Kindergarten Champion. This was a very well-run tournament. The rounds started on time and even the trophy presentations went reasonably well. Congratulations to Salman Azhar and his entire team.
