lowers, lunch outings, card and gifts do not a Mother’s Day make. In fact, one calendar mandated day doesn’t really mean much when it comes to honoring a supporting pillar of our lives. Sure we adore our Moms, but trying to stuff all that love and appreciation into a 24-hour (and let’s face it, more like two or three hour) window is simply inane and insufficient. We will always come up short. The idea of a day celebrating your mother is a lovely thing, but many are probably guilty of slacking off the rest of the year and using Mother’s Day as a redeeming weapon. The second Sunday in May has everyone crowding into restaurants, offering activities and gifts in an effort to prove their affections and make mom feel special. And for many women the day presents a challenge; her own family is planning something continued on page 7 INDEX It’s a date . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3

I had never seen anyone use a lanyard or wear one, if that’s what you did with them, but that did not keep me from crossing strand over strand again and again until I had made a boxy red and white lanyard for my mother. She gave me life and milk from her breasts, and I gave her a lanyard. She nursed me in many a sickroom, lifted teaspoons of medicine to my lips, set cold face-cloths on my forehead, and then led me out into the airy light and taught me to walk and swim, and I, in turn, presented her with a lanyard. Here are thousands of meals, she said, and here is clothing and a good education. And here is your lanyard, I replied, which I made with a little help from a counselor.

THE LANYARD BY BILLY COLLINS “The other day as I was ricocheting slowly off the pale blue walls of this room, bouncing from typewriter to piano, from bookshelf to an envelope lying on the floor, I found myself in the L section of the dictionary where my eyes fell upon the word lanyard.

Here is a breathing body and a beating heart, strong legs, bones and teeth, and two clear eyes to read the world, she whispered, and here, I said, is the lanyard I made at camp. And here, I wish to say to her now, is a smaller gift—not the archaic truth

No cookie nibbled by a French novelist could send one more suddenly into the past-a past where I sat at a workbench at a camp by a deep Adirondack lake learning how to braid thin plastic strips into a lanyard, a gift for my mother.

that you can never repay your mother, but the rueful admission that when she took the two-tone lanyard from my hands, I was as sure as a boy could be that this useless, worthless thing I wove out of boredom would be enough to make us even.”

RI man's 1974 traffic violation dismissed in Mass. AP WIRE SERVICE ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP), Apr 20 - A Rhode Island man has finally settled a warrant issued for a traffic violation in Massachusetts nearly four decades ago. Michael Young, of Warwick, R.I., asked a judge in Attleboro District Court on Tuesday to dismiss a driving to endanger charge issued in September 1974. He was 23 at the time. The now 60-year-old told the court he found out about the warrant recently when he went to conduct business at the Rhode Island Registry of Motor Vehicles. The Sun Chronicle of Attleboro reports that Judge Daniel O'Shea noted that half the people in court had not even been born at the time of the traffic violation. He granted Young's request, dismissing the case with payment of $100 in court costs. Prosecutors agreed with the dismissal. --Information from: The Sun Chronicle, http://www.thesunchronicle.com

10-foot gator chomps on Fla. deputy's cruisera AP Wire Service GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP), May 03 - A 10-foot-long alligator has taken a bite out of a Florida deputy sheriff's cruiser.

Authorities say Alachua County Deputy Victor Borrero spotted the gator Saturday evening near the Gainesville Golf and Country Club. It attacked the patrol car while the deputy was

waiting for an alligator trapper to show up. Sheriff's spokesman Todd Kelly says the car's front bumper was heavily damaged. A Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Com-

mission spokeswoman said the alligator was put down under the state's nuisance gator policy. Under that policy, the trapper is allowed to keep meat and hide from the gator.

SUBMITTED BY CITY OF UNION CITY SUBMITTED BY DETECTIVE BILL VETERAN, FREMONT PD Police are looking for a suspect who robbed two employees of Perfect Day Spa. The incident happened on Friday night, April 29 in the parking lot of Perfect Day Spa on Paseo Padre Parkway. Armed with a hand gun the suspect approached the employees while they were leaving work. Suspect is a black male adult standing 5'06” tall with a thin build. He was wearing red shirt with writing on it. An armed robbery was reported on Sunday, May 1 in the area of Cabrillo Drive and Balboa Way. The victim alleged that two Black males robbed him of his wallet, cash and cell phone. They were wearing dark hooded sweatshirts and fled in a white minivan. The suspects are still at large. A suspect believed to be in possession of a controlled substance was driving a stolen 1999 Dodge Caravan, license plate number 5EFX126, when Officer Geibig spotted him in the parking lot at Lucky Supermarket on Sunday, May 1. Pursuit was terminated when the suspect vehicle entered Highway 880. Niles Merchant Association's Historic Train Car in the Niles District was burglarized on Sunday, May 1. Chief Security Officer Aguirre is investigating the commercial burglary. A representative of The Market Broiler Restaurant, 43406 Christy Street, called police to report that a patron told a waitress that the meal she served might be his last and then disappeared into the bathroom for an extended period. The incident happened at about 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 1. The patron warned of explosives in his truck parked near Jamba Juice. Police evacuated the area and searched his truck. It was determined there were no explosives and that the man's bizarre behavior was not grounds for arrest. A man was robbed of money in the area of Thornton Avenue and San Pedro Drive. The incident was reported on Tuesday, May 3. The victim, who was visiting Fremont for business reasons, alleged that two suspects stole his cell phone and his wallet containing $140 cash. The only description of the suspects provided by the victim to Sgt. McCormick and Officer Diehm was that they were Black male adults. The victim admitted to police that he had taken a cab to the location after arranging a “date” from an internet site. Mission Coffee was burglarized on Tuesday, May 3. An unknown suspect(s) entered the closed business through the front door and stole the cash register.

On Monday (4/25), officers responded to an in- progress residential burglary located on Del Monte Court. A witness reported that a juvenile suspect was attempting to break into the residence via the rear sliding door. The witness took a photograph of the suspect as he was breaking into the residence. The flash from the camera alerted the suspect, causing him to flee. Police arrived just in time to catch him less than a block from the victim’s home. Tuesday evening (4/26), an officer was dispatched to investi-

gate an in-progress vandalism. A witness reported that three suspects were spray-painting graffiti on the sound wall on Whipple Road near Dyer Street. The first officer on scene caught all three suspects in the act and arrested them for graffiti. On Wednesday (4/27), Newark Police requested assistance covering calls for service while they investigated a homicide. Union City Police sent two officers to Newark while they stabilized the scene and called in additional resources. Also, on Wednesday (4/27), members of the Community Policing and Problem Solving (COPPS) unit were conducting

special enforcement in the area of the Tropics Mobile Home Park when a vehicle committed a traffic violation. The officer attempted to make a traffic enforcement stop, but the driver fled and attempted to evade the officer. The driver eventually pulled over in the area of Medallion Drive and Noah Drive, jumped out of the vehicle and began to make threatening statements to the officer. Officers physically restrained the driver and found he was on parole. He had discarded a loaded firearm nearby which was recovered. The driver was ultimately arrested for possession of a loaded firearm and a violation of parole.

for her, but she needs to do something for her mother, who in turn has her own mother to think about, and everyone is trying to mark the holiday in this small space of time. The pressure and expectation can turn the day into more of a stress factor and something to check off the “To Do” list than a natural, heartfelt expression of love. So why not make your own Mother’s Day? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to surprise your mom on some random Monday or Thursday in March or September? How much more special would that time and experience be, coming just from you without the dictate of country and shopping ads? Ultimately our mothers would be better served if our attentions were spread throughout the year instead of injected into one day out of 365. Interaction, inquiry, love, respect, and gratitude should be ongoing expressions of our heart.

Call your mother. Take walks or motorcycle rides together, cook her dinner, go to a museum, play cards, take up Zumba, paint her living room. Don’t drive your mom to join Facebook just so she can find out what’s going on in your life. Because really, it all comes down to connection. Flowers and cards once a year will never trump a collection of memories made together. So although you will probably do something for your mom this Sunday, don’t rely on Mother’s Day to do all of the talking. The incomparable gift of mothers is captured with wit and beauty by former U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins in his poem “The Lanyard” from his collection entitled “The Trouble with Poetry.” So for all you mothers out there, this is for you. On May 14, August 25, October 1, January 18, and clear into forever. SUBMITTED BY COMMANDER BOB DOUGLAS, NEWARK PD

A Newark resident was robbed of his wallet on Joaquin Murieta Avenue. The incident happened on Tuesday night, May 3 when two unidentified men, wearing masks accosted the victim then fled on foot.

Movie Review BY JENNIFER GAU

ormer Federal Agent, Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker), teams up with Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) again for the fifth installment

(directed by Justin Lin) of fast cars and tan women. Unfortunately, they have become fugitives running from Los Angeles to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Tired of hiding, they need a long lasting retirement plan and decide to assemble an elite team to set them all free. Somehow, they must carry out their complex plan with both a corrupt businessman and Special Forces agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) hot on their tails. Dominic is the leader of the team and brainstorms a plan in order for them to hopefully be able to walk away with lots of money and off the FBI Most Wanted List. The team set up is strangely familiar to Ocean’s team in “Ocean’s 11 (2001).” The team requires: a chameleon that can blend in anywhere (Sung Kang); a fast talker (Tyrese Gibson); someone good with circuits (Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges); a few to punch through walls; a utilities and

Fast Five weapons expert; and, last but not least, dangerous and reckless drivers. The action in this movie is comedic. The director shows the impossible without showing how it is possible. It is highly

unlikely the actors are able to jump off multiple roofs over 10 feet high without breaking or fracturing something and still

be able to outrun a gang of masked gunners. Besides the ridiculous and unreal factor, Lin nails it with the right angles to get the best view of the cars. Also beautiful are the aerial views of Rio de Janeiro that help transition between scenes.

But the beauty does not transfer below on the streets where the big boys play. A testosterone

filled movie, it is incredulous how much property the characters easily destroy without shedding blood of their own. Although filled with cheesy dialogue, “Fast Five” is a roller coaster of excitement from the beginning highway rush to hijacking a train, to hanging out

in the warehouse, and finally the satisfying grand finale car chase that leaves you with a smirk knowing you were a part of something cool. Runtime: 2 hour 10 minutes Rated: PG-13

Washington Hospital Honors Its Nurses During National Nurses Week

uring National Nurses Week, celebrated May 6—12, Washington Hospital honors its nurses, the health care professionals whose hard work improves the health and well being of their patients and the community as a whole. Nursing staff members are an integral part of the patient care team from bedside care to research and education of the community on a range of health care topics. Achievements and accolades for nursing staff Washington Hospital’s nurses have consistently dedicated themselves to the highest quality patient care, combining compassionate bedside care with strong evidence-based practices reflected in the awards the nursing staff receive and the patient care improvement research that they generate. In a hospital-wide achievement that speaks highly of the nursing staff, Washington Hospital received the 2011 HealthGrades Award for Patient Safety Excellence, which places the hospital among the top five percent in the nation for patient safety, according to HealthGrades, a leading, nationwide health care ratings, information, and advisory services company. “We have had a number of quality initiatives that have had great success,” says Lauren Lucas R.N., nurse manager of Washington Hospital’s 6 West Unit. “Nursing units at Washington Hospital have focused on multiple evidence-based initiatives, in-

Washington Hospital nurses are effective because they work with an excellent group of certified nurse assistants, licensed vocational nurses and ancillary staff.Together, these men and women function as a team, providing the highest quality of care to patients. At the end of each shift, our nurses go home with the knowledge that they are making our community healthier and stronger one patient at a time.

cluding ones to help better monitor and prevent hospital-acquired infections, such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) and Clostridium difficile.” Nurses from Washington Hospital also regularly receive accolades for excellence in beside care from the Diseases Attacking the Immune System (DAISY) Foundation. “For more than six years now, Washington Hospital has been honored to be nominated as a DAISY Award hospital,” according to Washington Hospital Nursing Director, Alice Santos, R.N. “We have many fine dedicated nurses whose dedication and commitment is reflected in the number of specialty certifications that our nurses obtain.” Attracting the best In the face of a growing

nursing shortage, Washington Hospital continues to attract quality nursing candidates through measures to fully support nurses’ efforts to care for patients in accordance with the hospital’s Patient First Ethic, which states all decisions and actions must be based on what is best for the patient. For nurses just beginning their careers at the hospital, Washington Hospital’s administration has committed to being one of the few local hospitals to offer a comprehensive New Graduate Nurse Program, which provides new nursing school graduates with both hands-on and classroom training. The program lasts between eight and 10 weeks, with two and a half weeks of classroom training spread throughout a preceptorship, a period of time

in which an experienced nurse is teamed with a new graduate to work together so that the less experienced person can learn and apply knowledge and skills in the practice setting with the help of the more experienced person. “Not all hospitals have a dedicated program like we do,” says Nurse Manager Sam Avila, R.N., who coordinates the program. “I think it’s really important for us to have the program for both the clinical training and ongoing emotional support that new grads receive, because it is a big adjustment going from student nurse to practicing R.N.” Commitment to high quality nursing care In study after study, quality nursing care correlates highly with better patient outcomes. In an effort to reinforce its ded-

ication to high-quality nursing standards, Washington Hospital’s leadership has continued to strive for Magnet Status Recognition, a prestigious designation for nursing excellence awarded to only a small percentage of hospitals. The Magnet Recognition Program® was developed by the American Nurses’ Credentialing Center (ANCC), an affiliate of the American Nurses Association, and recognition is granted only to hospitals that satisfy a set of criteria designed to measure the strength and quality of their nursing. For hospitals to become a Magnet-recognized institution, they must demonstrate that nursing delivers excellent patient outcomes, nurses have a high level of job satisfaction, and where there is a low staff nurse turnover rate and appropriate grievance resolution. Magnet status also indicates nursing staff’s involvement in data collection and decisionmaking in patient care delivery.

Red, yellow, blue—which color should I choose?

hoosing colors is by far the most discussed topic with my design clients. Everyone wants to know which color will work best in their home. Colors have a distinct effect on all of us; being aware of how colors make you feel can be of great help when decorating your home. How do you feel when you walk into a red room? How about a green room? It is not a coincidence, for example, that many hospitals use green on the walls to help relax their patients. And have you noticed the colors red and orange in many restaurants? Restaurant designers know that those colors are appetite stimulants. Let's explore the fascinating subject of color psychology and how it applies to home decor. Red... signals excitement and sexuality. In addition to stimulating appetites, red can even improve your sense of smell as well as cause other physiological responses such as

increased heart rate and rapid breathing. Red rooms are dramatic and provocative. Used as an accent color, red can provide a much needed jolt of energy and life. Imagine a neutral tan and cream living room with a vase of bright red flowers. Or a piece of artwork with bold red strokes. Beautiful! Other energetic colors in the red family are fuchsia and magenta. If those are too intense for you, try burgundy, which is rich and elegant, or brick red, which is earthy and warm. Orange... is associated with warmth and contentment. Like red, orange is also an appetite stimulant. In its pure form, orange is playful and whimsical. A very friendly, energetic color, use orange in family rooms, laundry rooms, kitchens and kids’ rooms. More sophisticated colors in the orange family are copper and terra cotta. For a really interesting color combination, try pairing copper with purple. Terra cotta looks terrific

paired with teal or cobalt blue. Yellow... is the ideal color for dark or dreary rooms, and people often love yellow kitchens. One of my favorite yellows is Kelly Moore’s Clean Canvas. It is the color of my own kitchen. Yellow is cheerful, friendly and outgoing. Yellows can be familiar and comforting, reminding us of beautiful sunsets and wheat fields. Gold, an elegant member of the yellow family, can add formality, prestige and opulence to a room. For a very sophisticated look, pair gold with black or navy. Green... is very popular in decorating. Because of its ties to nature, green is a most restful color and is successfully paired with a wide variety of other colors. I consider it a “neutral” because it works so well with so many accent colors. Dark green is masculine and traditional. Earthy greens like moss and sage are quiet and soothing. Try pairing sage green with purple, and yellow-green with coral.

Give a room a jolt with some lime green accents. Blue...is named by most people as their favorite color. The color of the sky and the ocean, blue is calming and peaceful. Muted blue-gray is a wonderful bedroom color. Bright blues are energetic, vibrant and happy, while dark blues exude professionalism, conservatism and dependability. Business consultants often recommend wearing a navy blue suit to a job interview. Navy and white is a classic color combination that is very popular right now—try decorating a bedroom with a navy accent wall, crisp white trim, a navy and white patterned bedspread and white drapes. Purple...combines the vibrancy of red and the tranquility of blue. Historically, purple has been the color of royalty, and it connotes wealth and luxury. Purple is also associated with the exotic and mystical. Red purple is sensual and excit-

ing. Eggplant and plum are regal and elegant. Lavender is delicate and sweet. Dark purples can be combined successfully with gold, silver and green. Purple can add a unique touch to your rooms.

Bingo night raises funds for Japan BY JAYNE KUCHAC AND MIRIAM G. MAZLIACH PHOTO BY EMILY HSU To assist victims of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami, Weibel Elementary School in Fremont recently held a “Bingo Night.” Their efforts raised just under $1,000. Money is still being collected by the school, so the community is welcome to stop by the school office and donate to this worthwhile cause. All monies collected are being sent through the charity Operation USA (OpUSA), to reach the people in Japan who need it the most. This organization is well-regarded and has been involved with disaster relief efforts since 1979. Checks should be made out to OpUSA or visit www.opusa.org for more information. During Weibel’s fundraising evening, participants paid $5 for a booklet that contained 10 games with the option of a family pack for $25 which included four game packs of 10 games each, four raffle tickets and four food tickets.

For each of the 10 bingo games a variety of patterns could be used for the win: horizontal, vertical, four corners,

cisco, open your golden gate.” Everyone was encouraged to get involved and enjoy a good laugh; although, the bingo

and kite style, with the final game reserved for the crowd favorite -- blackout. In that bingo game, all the numbers on a player’s board had to be covered. When someone finally won, the moans and groans of the crowd were the best! The bingo caller made it a lot of fun for the players, using a rhyme for each number. For example, “chicken legs” represented number 11; everyone had to do the chicken dance when that number was called. Number 8 was the “golden gate” and all had to join in a chorus of the song, “San Fran-

caller was sometimes teased, it was all in good fun! Many thanks go to the participants and especially the Weibel families for donating all the prizes and food for the fundraising event. This was the second “Bingo Night” held by the school. Last year’s event raised funds for the TECH group, to buy iPads for Weibel students use in classrooms. To donate to Weibel Elementary School’s current relief efforts for Japan, contact the school at (510) 651-6958 or visit www.opusa.org.

SUBMITTED BY KRISTINE ROSELIUS The Bay Area Air Quality Management District, the regional agency responsible for protecting air quality in the Bay Area, announced the start of the Spare the Air smog season on May 2. This year is the 20th anniversary of the Spare the Air program.

Through the Spare the Air program, Bay Area residents are encouraged to reduce air pollution every day by reducing driving, keeping their vehicles maintained, carpooling, taking transit and walking and cycling. “Since 1991, the Spare the Air campaign has encouraged Bay Area residents to reduce their driving which contributes to more than half of our region’s air pollution,” said Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Air District. “Residents can do their part to reduce air pollution by making a commitment to not drive one day per week.” To mark the 20th anniversary, the Air District’s Facebook and Twitter sites will feature Spare the Air facts and trivia throughout the summer season that will show the air quality progress in the region since the program’s inception and offer tips for reducing emissions. Spare the Air health alerts are issued when ozone pollution is forecast to reach unhealthy levels. Ozone, or smog, can cause throat irritation, congestion, chest pain, trigger asthma, inflame the lining of the lungs and worsen bronchitis and emphysema. Ozone pollution is particularly harmful for young children, seniors and those with respiratory and heart conditions. Tailpipe exhaust from the millions of cars on Bay Area roads has been the largest source of smog in the Bay Area. Smog is formed when volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides from motor vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, industrial emissions and household chemicals combine with oxygen in the presence of heat and sunlight. For more information and to sign up for email AirAlerts to check the daily air quality forecast, visit www.SpareTheAir.org or call 1-800HELPAIR (435-7247). For more information about the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, visit www.baaqmd.gov.

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF FREMONT By: /s/ Elisa Tierney Redevelopment Agency Director FREMONT REDEVELOPMENT MAP OF MERGED PROJECT AREAS

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN MID-TERM REVIEW FOR THE FREMONT MERGED REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT (INCLUDING IRVINGTON, NILES, CENTERVILLE, AND INDUSTRIAL AREAS) NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Fremont (the “Agency”) will hold a public hearing on June 7, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. at the City Council Chambers, located at 3300 Capitol Ave, Fremont, California. The hearing may be continued from time to time until completed. The hearing is being conducted to receive testimony of all interested parties for the purpose of: (1) reviewing the Consolidated Amended and Restated Redevelopment Plan (the “Redevelopment Plan”) For The Fremont Merged Redevelopment Project (the “Merged Redevelopment Project”), which addresses redevelopment of the former Irvington, Niles, Centerville, and Industrial project areas, and the corresponding Five-Year Implementation Plan for the Merged Redevelopment Project adopted by the Agency on June 10, 2008, as amended and restated as of March 10, 2010 (the “Implementation Plan”); and (2) evaluating the progress of the Merged Redevelopment Project. The redevelopment plans for the Irvington and Niles redevelopment project areas were originally adopted in 1977. The redevelopment plan for the Industrial redevelopment project area was originally adopted in 1983, and the redevelopment plan for the Centerville redevelopment project area was originally adopted in 1997. All four redevelopment plans were amended in 1998 and the four projects were merged for purposes of tax increment financing. The plans were subsequently amended in 2010 for the purposes of increasing the limit on the amount of tax increment revenue that may be claimed from the Industrial area portion of the Merged Redevelopment Project, and consolidating the separate redevelopment plans into the single current Redevelopment Plan. Attached is a map showing the general locations of the four areas comprising the Merged Redevelopment Project within Fremont. The Agency’s current Implementation Plan sets forth, for the five-year planning period comprised of fiscal years 2008-09 through 2012-13, the specific goals and objectives of the Agency for the Merged Redevelopment Project, potential programs and projects, estimated expenditures proposed to be made during the planning period, and an explanation of how the goals and objectives, programs, and expenditures will eliminate blight within the Merged Redevelopment Project, and implement the affordable housing requirements of the California Community Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code Section 33000 et seq.). This hearing is being conducted pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33490(a) and (c) and presents an opportunity for a mid-term review of the current Implementation Plan, and a progress evaluation of the Merged Redevelopment Project.

Public Input sought for Bay Area long-range plan SUBMITTED BY KATHLEEN CHA (ABAG) AND JOHN GOODWIN (MTC)

ay Area residents are invited to discuss the region’s future growth at a series of public workshops being held in all nine Bay Area counties through May 19. Participants will use a fun, interactive web-based visual simulation tool to understand some of the challenges and trade-offs associated with the

housing and transportation needs of our growing region. The discussion results and feedback will help inform development of Plan Bay Area, the region’s long-range integrated land-use/transportation plan. “Now is the time to speak up about your vision for a sustainable, prosperous future,” said Adrienne Tissier, chair of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). “As our population is projected to grow from about 7 million to

nearly 9 million people by 2040, we need a plan that meets the transportation and housing needs of current and future generations.” Plan Bay Area is led by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) in partnership with the Bay Area’s other two regional government agencies, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and the Bay Con-

servation and Development Commission (BCDC). Additionally, the agencies are partnering with Envision Bay Area, an initiative led by the Silicon Valley Community Foundation and a group of nonprofits working to promote public participation on Plan Bay Area. An online tool – YouChoose Bay Area – helps residents try out different growth scenarios and learn about some of the consequences for their communities. Visit the online

tool at www.YouChooseBayArea.org. The workshops are the next step in the Plan Bay Area process, following release of an Initial Vision Scenario, which has been presented at city council meetings and provides a starting point for conversations about where new development should occur and how new transportation investments can serve this growth in a way that promotes sustainable communities.

SUBMITTED BY EUGENE DIAS What do teachers do when they retire? They travel; they substitute teach; they have time to pursue their hobbies and physical activities. However, one of their most productive and satisfying accomplishments is volunteering. A major purpose of Division 91 of the California Retired Teachers Association of Fremont, Union City and Newark is to encourage its membership to volunteer in community service endeavors. The past year, 2010, members of CalRTA #91 accrued more than 32,000 volunteer

hours in a myriad of services throughout the community including support in hospitals, senior care centers, schools and churches; transportation to medical appointments; gathering usable furniture, clothing and food items for the poor and needy; serving as docents in museums; and participating in the trapneuter-return program to reduce the population and euthanasia of feral cats. Volunteering in retirement is positive, rewarding and a benefit to the community. CalRTA#91 supports a scholarship program for Teacher Training students at Cal State University East Bay.

Funds are raised through Ducks for Bucks proceeds, book sales and donations. The California Retired Teachers Association was organized in 1929; CalRTA#91 is the newest division, formed 10 years ago. CalRTA #91 invites retire teachers and those interested in supporting public education to quarterly luncheon meeting held quarterly during the year on the third Wednesday of the appropriate month. The next meeting will be held July 20th. Call Eugene Dias (510) 797-0972 for more information. Retirement is not inactivity!

BY JORDAN ROBERTSON AP TECHNOLOGY WRITER SAN FRANCISCO (AP), May 04 Intel Corp. said Wednesday that it has redesigned the electronic switches on its chips so that computers can keep getting cheaper and more powerful. The switches, known as transistors, have typically been flat. By adding a third dimension - “fins” that jut up from the base - Intel will be able to make the transistors and chips smaller. Think of how skyscrapers address the need for more office space when land is scarce. The company said the new structure will let chips run on less power. That gives Intel its best shot yet at cracking the growing markets for chips used in smartphones and tablet computers. Intel has been weak there because its current chips use too much power.

BY BARBARA ORTUTAY AND RACHEL METZ AP TECHNOLOGY WRITERS NEW YORK (AP), May 04 - AOL's first-quarter earnings and online advertising revenue dropped sharply, but the struggling Internet company tried to reassure investors by pointing out that part of its ad sales grew for the first time in more than three years. CEO Tim Armstrong called the quarter a milestone for AOL, but in an

Chips with the 3-D transistors will be in full production this year and appear in computers in 2012. Intel has been talking about 3-D, or “tri-gate,” transistors for nearly a decade, and other companies are experimenting with similar technology. The announcement is noteworthy because Intel has figured out how to manufacture the transistors cheaply in mass quantities. Transistors are at the center of the digital universe. They're the workhorses of modern electronics, tiny on/off switches that regulate electric current. They're to computers what synapses are to the human nervous system. Transistors operate in the shadows, but they're integral to daily life. And they need to shrink, so that computers can get smaller and smarter. A chip can have a billion transistors, all laid out side by side in a single layer, as

interview he also made it clear the company has a long way to go. Monthly unique visitors to its network of content sites, which is referred to as the AOL Huffington Post Media Group since AOL's March 4 acquisition of news hub The Huffington Post, dipped 3 percent to 100 million. Revenue from the company's long-declining dial-up Internet business also fell. For the past several years, AOL has been trying to boost its online advertising business and beef up its stable of

if they were the streets of a city. Chips have no “depth” - until now. On Intel's chips, the fins will jut up from that streetscape, sort of like bridges or overpasses. However, Intel's advance doesn't mean it can add a whole second layer of transistors to the chip, or start stacking layers into a cube. That remains a distant but hotly pursued goal of the industry, as cubic chips could be much faster that flat ones while consuming less power. The demand is there for smartphones that deliver the Internet in our pockets, supercomputers that beat human champions at “Jeopardy!,” and other feats of computer wizardry that would have been impossible in the 1970s. Processors then could only hold continued on page 39

websites as subscribers steadily abandon the Internet access business that made it a household name in the 1990s. But the shift has been difficult. AOL Inc. said Wednesday that it earned $4.7 million, or 4 cents per share, in the latest quarter, down from $34.7 million, or 32 cents per share, a year earlier. Excluding restructuring charges and other items, AOL would have earned 22 cents a share in the latest quarter. The company's profit from continuing operations was 4 cents per share, compared with 39 cents in the year-ago quarter. Revenue fell 17 percent to $551 million from $664 million, above the $535 million that analysts polled by FactSet were expecting. continued onpage 31

Aol, continued from page 30 AOL said its ad revenue would have been flat if not for changes associated with shutting down European businesses and shifting focus away from services with lower profit margins. The New York -based company said revenue for display ads - billboard-like ads on websites - grew 4 percent to $130.5 million. This was the first time since the fourth quarter of 2007 that AOL's display advertising grew from the previous year. AOL sees display growth as important because it's a segment of online advertising that is poised for major growth over the next several years. The company's search and contextual ad revenue, meanwhile, fell 21 percent to $95.8 million. Armstrong is optimistic about the online ad market overall, though, saying it's “more robust” this year than last and that it will keep improving. “The stampede of consumers to digital services has

been faster than advertisers' ability to keep up with consumers, so you have a significant pooling of consumers in Internet services and a trickle of advertisers that have been able to keep up with it,” he said. Still, even if the market grows AOL's share is expected to be small for now. Research firm eMarketer expects AOL to hold just 4 percent of the U.S. display ad market by revenue this year, behind Facebook, Yahoo and Google. And for all U.S. ads, eMarketer expects AOL's share to be less than 3 percent. AOL's subscription revenue, which has long been in decline, dropped 24 percent to $215 million as AOL continued to lose dialup customers who upgraded to speedier Internet service from cable TV and phone companies. The company ended March with 3.6 million dialup subscribers, down 22 percent from the previous year. AOL shares dipped 41 cents to $19.99 in trading.

AP WIRE SERVICE LOS ANGELES (AP), May 04 - Comcast Corp. will spend an extra $300 million this year on NBCUniversal, mostly to pay for new prime-time shows in a turnaround effort at broadcaster NBC. The company, which bought a controlling interest in NBCUniversal in January, said $200 million will be spent mainly on new NBC shows to fill the 10 p.m. slot where Jay Leno briefly hosted a variety show every weeknight. It was a moneysaving move that was abandoned within months, after local stations complained that low ratings were hurting their 11 p.m. news. Another $100 million will be spent on new shows on cable channels, which include Bravo, Oxygen, SyFy and E! Entertainment. The company did not say how much NBCUniversal spent on shows last year.

NBCUniversal CEO Steve Burke disclosed the figure Wednesday on a conference call with analysts following Tuesday's release of Comcast Corp.'s upbeat first-quarter results. “The real key to turning around NBC is not necessarily increased investment. The real key is making better shows,'' Burke said. The network already has a potential hit with ``The Voice,'' a singing competition show that debuted last week. The company ordered 21 pilots of potential shows, the same number as last year, and will announce to advertisers in New York this month which ones it will order for the fall lineup. Burke said the turnaround of the fourth-ranked network will take several years but is worth the investment. He said that even raising NBC to third place would mean hundreds of millions of dollars more in operat-

ing profit annually. Although Comcast says it bought NBCUniversal for its lucrative cable channels, Comcast promised government regulators that it would invest in programming at the broadcast network. Philadelphia-based Comcast on Tuesday reported first-quarter net income of $943 million, or 34 cents per share, for the first three months of the year. That's up 9 percent from $866 million, or 31 cents, a year ago. Excluding costs related to its acquisition of NBCUniversal from General Electric Co., earnings came to 36 cents per share. That topped the 34 cents average expected by analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue rose 32 percent to $12.1 billion. That also beat the $11.45 billion expected by analysts. Comcast's first-quarter results include two months of NBCUniversal's, which weren't included last year.

your tickets at the depot kiosks or pay on board. Be sure to check the web site for days and hours of operation, (www.ncry.org). Board the train at either the Niles Depot on Mission Boulevard or in Sunol. Find a seat in the open-air car or the old enclosed Pullman cars. There is a dining car that sells snacks, and offers free wine tasting for some rides. The excitement of the train, combined with chugging through the Canyon’s green foliage, seeing the creek run by below, feeling the crisp air and the sun on your face, is blissful. In Sunol, or Niles, you can disembark for shopping, a pit

stop, or photos with the big engines. The experience makes all those Thomas the Tank Engine stories come to life. The next day we went further afield, all the way to San Francisco. Our outings were geared to the three-year-old meltdown meter but, of course, my grandson Jacksen is excep-

tional, so his attention span and curiosity are keen. We took BART, because it’s another train ride. Disembarking at the Powell Street station brings you exactly to the Cable Car Turntable. The line to board the tram is usually long but it circles the turntable and watching the old trolley cars pulled in, turned and pushed out again is fascinating in and of itself. There’s something refreshing about old-fashioned hands on manual labor as opposed to a clicking joystick. Once seated on the outside benches, the wait was worth it. Our gripman was a true San Francisco character, playing tunes on his bell, hollering “What about those Giants?” and even giving Jacksen a chance to pull the bell rope.

The cable car, like the Little Engine That Could, labors up the city’s hills, then flies down the other side like Buzz

Lightyear on a mission. The gripman stops at famous sights such as Lombard Street’s twisting passage, and points out

Coit Tower in the distance. We arrived at our destination, Fisherman’s Wharf, ready for the fabled crab sandwich on sourdough bread. Our plan was to eat at a waterside sandwich shop but we ended up, at the gripman’s suggestion, at Scoma’s Restaurant. The white tablecloths and dark wood spoke of fine dining, as did the prices and black-tied waiters. Our waiter, Sal, had been working at Scoma’s for 15 years, and said he was still the “baby” on the staff, most of whom had been there over 35 years. He knew his job though, and immediately brought the children’s menu and then Jacksen’s “fish stick,” a large and delicious piece of fried cod with French fries. From the crab and salmon cake to the crab sandwich, my organic butternut squash and crab soup, and fresh sourdough bread, all the food was satisfyingly good. The calm

and quiet of the restaurant led us to really relax; Jacksen ate his fish and chips and drew with restaurant-provided crayons; his parents enjoyed a glass of wine. Refreshed, we set off down Jefferson Street to find the sea lions. Along the way we saw a group of statue mimes eating lunch, and a man who hid behind a leafy branch and pretended to scare people. Then we saw, or smelled, the sea lions, basking on their piers, wrestling each other for space and generally showing off – natural clowns. Our last stop was the Ferry Building, further down the Embarcadero. A cab ride seemed appropriate by that time, and inexpensive. The Ferry Building offered wide hallways, gelato, enticing food aromas, and a grand view. By 4 p.m. we were

fed, exercised, shopped out, and ready to go home. The short walk to the Embarcadero BART put us on the platform for the Fremont train in two minutes, and home within the hour, without one meltdown. Jacksen had been promised really BIG trees and a golden bridge, so our next local adventure was to Muir Woods National Monument and the Golden Gate. Again, all do-able in one day and with a threeyear-old. We left Fremont at 9:30 a.m. and routed ourselves north and then west across the San Rafael Bridge. Plenty of signage led us easily to the Monument grounds. The lovely thing about Muir Woods and children is that you can just let them run ahead of you and enjoy themselves, even a threeyear-old. We saw giant redwoods with giant hidey holes in

the trunks and twisted faces in their bark. The forest was green and enveloping, a consuming experience from ground level to high overhead. After an hour, we stopped at the gift shop and headed back to the car for the

last leg of our journey, the Golden Gate Bridge. If you go first to Fort Baker, and drive through the old military base (now turned lodge and spa) you may wonder why you are there, until suddenly the Golden Gate Bridge looms high above you. After some awe-struck photos and a brief explore, we squirreled our way out through a mountain tunnel, up and over Hawk Hill and right into the parking area by Fort Barry. It’s quite a view of the fabled bridge from high up there on the headlands. There is the added fascination of the historic batteries, with the old anti-aircraft gun pads,

and military living quarters. At last, headed home over the Bay Bridge we finally had a meltdown: “Jacksen, we’re on a double decker bridge!” “No we’re not. No it isn’t.” “Yes it is. Remember when I pointed it out yesterday?” “No you didn’t. No it’s NOT a double-decker!” The wisdom of age allowed us to drop the subject and the rest of the ride was peaceful and uneventful. Planes, trains, and automobiles, cable cars, buses, bridges and hikes are all to be had within driving distance of home. My son has twice said, “Mom, we had a blast!” But you don’t even have to wait for visitors, do it for yourself. Play at home - enjoy where you live.

he greatest issue we face as a society is how to fund the cost of health care; cost-protection for our aging population who are approaching 65? This is more than a funding question to me. It strikes at the heart of how we define ourselves as a country. As baby boomer who is a whole lot closer to Age 65 than I am to Age 21, I understand this. People who work in medical offices can tell you stories about how an aging population needs care in ever increasing numbers, making delivery of that care increasingly more difficult. Can Medicare survive as the exclusive provider? I believe that the answer is "no" for two key reasons. One is the increasing amount of funding needed for the ever-growing federal bureaucracy that administers the Medicare program; the money is simply not there. This leads to the second reason… since it is almost an unwritten law that federal bureaucracies grow ex-

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

ponentially with less funding on the horizon, the only place to cut in Medicare is benefits. The result is an extensive national discussion on Medicare rationing. For this reason I believe the Medicare Advantage (MA) product is going to become an increasingly better choice for all Medicare-eligible people. For those unfamiliar with the MA program with or without Part D, refer to one of my earlier columns for a refresher. Suffice it to say that the MA product is marketed and administered by private insurance companies who contract with Medicare. Once enrolled in a MA product, Medicare pays the insurance company a fixed amount per enrollee (you) and they administer your claims/benefits. The MA carrier can charge a premium or not. Anthem for example offers a zero premium product marketed as Freedom Blue, while Kaiser charges about $75 a month for its Secure Advantage. These premiums include Part D prescription drug coverage.

The key to MA carrier success is a basic tenet of how to do business. They trim overhead to maximize their bottom line while working to increase sales (market share). I don't have the exact numbers but I recall hearing from sources in my industry that Anthem set a goal of 1,000,000 new enrollees last year and instead had 2,000,000 new enrollees. These dramatic increases in enrollment explain why Anthem has been able to maintain a zero premium. Why did this dramatic increase in MA enrollment happen? I submit it is a statement of how poorly Medicare is functioning. When a Medicare-eligible individual elects to directly enroll in Medicare, that person must also obtain a supplemental medical policy along with a separate Part D - prescription drug policy. The minimum total expense for quality supplemental coverage is approximately $150-$175. Some supplemental programs can be in the $300+ a month range. You need a supplemental policy because what many peo-

ple do not realize is that Medicare has no stop-loss limit for out-of-hospital physician services and large exposure for in-hospital as well. Compare that with the MA program that replaces Medicare and any supplemental product with part D. Some MAs additionally offer worldwide coverage and better Skilled Nursing Facility coverage, etc. Growing knowledge about MAs among the Medicare-eligible population ensures increasing success for this product. The most interesting aspect to this situation is that Medicare (CMS) increasingly scrutinizes how some MA carriers function rather than encourage people to consider the MA alternative. Would it not make more sense for CMS to embrace the MA product so our senior population has more choice in how they purchase health care cost-protection? Time will tell, but I for one shout, "Yes!” Stay healthy. Stay tuned. Get involved. Learn what is being done. Your life now does indeed depend upon it.

Speak Up for Better Education BY SUPERVISOR DAVE CORTESE

re you concerned about the funding cuts that are hitting our schools? I certainly am. Over the past few years, our schools have lost teachers, libraries, sports programs, art and music programs, clubs and more. They have put off buying new textbooks and have increased class sizes. All of this is detrimental to the quality of our students’ education. If you too are concerned, then I would like to invite you to join me in the fight for better education funding by attending our annual bus trip to Sacramento and the Education Summit that I am hosting this May. What does this have to do with my role as County Supervisor? The county, after all, doesn’t oversee education. The county focuses on things like health care, social services, and public safety. Did you know that a student’s education has an impact on his or her use of county services in the present or future? A simple illustration of this is that without adequate funding for education more youth get into trouble, being around negative influences, and fewer others graduate ending up in the county’s juvenile justice system. This means that the county has a BIG stake in the fight for quality education. With this in mind, as both a parent and as County Supervisor, I am going to continue to fight for better education funding. I hope you will be able to join me at one or both the events being set up for this purpose. For the past eight years, I have sponsored a one day bus trip to Sacramento. I have taken more than a thousand commu-

nity members, parents, students, teachers, educational leaders, and others interested in quality education to discuss our concerns with our legislators. We have spoken with our legislators and told them point blank that we are not happy with funding cuts in our schools. Last year we

had a number of students from East Side Union High School District join us as part of a field trip arranged through School Board member Frank Biehl. Their stories provided a real world picture of the impacts that funding cuts have on students. We have commitments from a number of legislators to stop cutting our school funding. It is very important for us to keep the discussions alive. I am very pleased that this year’s trip will be cosponsored by the Silicon Valley Education Foundation. It will take place on Monday, May 16, 2011 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The trip, including lunch, is absolutely FREE! Two weeks before we board

the bus to Sacramento, we will hold an Education Summit. The Education Summit will take place on Tuesday, May 3, 2011 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Board Chambers at the County Government Center at 70 W. Hedding Street in San Jose. This is a great opportunity to share your concerns about cuts at your schools with people from schools and neighborhoods across the county. We will have a panel of education leaders who can share the history of budget cuts and give a better picture of the future of our county if the cuts are allowed to continue. We will compile this information to drive the discussion with the legislators in Sacramento. So, by attending the Education Summit, your voice will be heard as far away as Sacramento. Who knew your voice could travel so far? After we return, we will put out a summary of commitments we received so we can make sure promises were kept. Once again, I urge you to join me in the fight for better education funding. Our students need and deserve a high quality education. The future of our county and our nation are at risk if the cuts continue. It is imperative that we get together and make our voices heard in Sacramento. To register for the Education Summit, the Sacramento Bus Trip, or both please visit my website at www.supervisorcortese.org or call (408) 299-5030. Also, if you are a part of an organization that would like to partner with us for this trip, please e-mail Lara McCabe at lara.mccabe@bos.sccgov.org for details.

ity Beach in Fremont has recently opened for public availability its Indoor Challenge Course, an arrangement of ropes and wooden platforms placed 25 feet in the air on which the adventurous can test their coordination and courage. The course shares some similarities with rock climbing, with course challengers secured by a harness with ropes operated by teammates on the ground. Challengers then proceed through a series of eight elements which include traversing cables, planks and platforms. “The element of danger here will be mostly perceived, but of

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

course it’s very powerful,” said City Beach Director of Operations Gregg Dean. “Fear is a powerful thing, and the whole point is to harness that. If you go up in a rope course and you don’t have any level of fear, there’s probably something wrong with you.” Dean has logged over 750 hours on the ropes course over the past five years, and he said he still has a palpable measure of fear each time he goes up. However, despite the sense of danger associated with the course, Dean stressed the high degree of safety under which the course operates. “Honestly, it’s the most controlled environment at City Beach,” Dean noted. “You’re actually more apt to get injured on a sports court underneath a bas-

May 6, 2011

ketball hoop than you are on the ropes course just because of the level of safety and the checks and balances involved with the way we manage the course.” According to Dean, the facility at City Beach is the only indoor ropes course on the West Coast. When City Beach opened its doors in December 2001, the course was reserved for private functions such as corporate events, but the course is now available to anyone who wishes to try their mettle. “We’ll work with private individuals, families, friends, wedding parties,” Dean said. “We work with sports teams on every level, from Pop Warner football teams all the way to professional sports organizations.” More than a test of any particular physical attribute, the ropes course is a challenge to a person’s resolve and boundaries. Dean said that the powerful effect the course has on people who try it together should not be underestimated. continued on page 37

ouldn’t it be great to have a local professional athlete? Well, fortunately for the Tri-Cities, there is a successful professional athlete residing in Union City, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter Jonathon Macalolooy. Affectionately known as JONMAC, Macalolooy is fresh off a unanimous victory at

moving onto San Diego State where he received his degree in kinesiology in 2008. At the young age of 5, Macalolooy began training in martial arts, diving into wrestling a short time after. With the extensive devotion to the sport, Macalolooy translated it into high school success at Logan. In 2002, he was named the North Coast Section wrestling champion. And ever since, he’s stuck with it and taken his talents as far as they can take him.

“You look at somebody different after you come down from an experience on a ropes course,” he said. “You really think ‘we took care of each other up there.’ ” In addition to the ropes course, City Beach -- which also has a location in Santa Clara -- offers much more, including an indoor rock climbing gym, with 16,000 square feet of climbing routes; a garden patio featuring four bocce ball courses; a multi-purpose gym offering visitors the chance to play basketball, volleyball or badminton; a restaurant serving an eclectic variety of dishes; and entertainment hub for a chance to play on one of eight billiards tables, two air hockey tables, two shuffleboard tables and five pingpong tables, all while watching sporting events on HD TVs; and a private conference room.

Rebel Fighter Explosive, an MMA event at the Amador County Fairgrounds in Plymouth last month, and finished with a score of 30-27. He absolutely dominated his opponent Sam Stevens-Milo, taking him down in every round. Macalolooy is a Union City native who graduated from James Logan High School in 2003,

“Being involved in such combative elements seemed to just point in the same direction,” said Macalolooy, who trains and teaches at the Dragons Den in Union City, and encourages all interested fighters to come by and check it out. “It continued on page 38

wasn't like I just woke up one day and said I want to be a professional MMA fighter because it looked cool. One thing just led to the next on my path and I ended up here.” Getting in a ring to take on opponents in a one-on-one capacity runs in the Macalolooy blood. Jonathon’s older brother Jeff was involved in martial arts and wrestling, while his dad and uncles boxed while back in the Philippines. He credits a lot of his success to his family. “It was a family thing, and still is,” he noted. “Family has always been the most important thing in my life and being Filipino, that includes my extended family as well. They not only ground me, but have always been my biggest form of support.” Macalolooy began his professional career in October 2008 in San Diego. After winning his first fight, the obstacles began to pile on. He remembered back to the early days of his career, and the challenges with scheduling fights. “There were about four occasions where fighters either pulled out, or shows got cancelled, sometimes even just weeks beforehand,” he said. “It was definitely hard to deal with, but it’s common for those just starting out.” When Macalolooy moved back to Union City, he finally had his second fight, in May 2010. However, he suffered a nasty blow during what he referred to as a “freak accident,” where he would end up breaking both his tibia and fibula while

throwing a kick. Nevertheless, Macalolooy persevered with tremendous determination. That determination culminated in the victory at Rebel Fighter Explosive, showing that his leg is completely healed and he’s ready to compete. Now with the injury behind him, Macalolooy is looking to improve off his 2-1 record (his only loss coming as a result of a medical stoppage due to his broken leg). “You are only as good as your last fight or competition,” said a humbled Macalolooy. “If you put weight on past accomplishments, then the hunger is no longer as strong.” Like most fighters, his ultimate goal is to become a world champion. In the time being, he said he’d like to simply live life in the present. “I like to focus on just constantly improving one match at a time and to constantly evolve my game,” he

said, including helping others at the art of MMA. “I want to be able to continue teaching my craft and sharing my passion. I would love to make a career out of just teaching martial arts because we all know you can’t fight forever.” MMA isn’t for everyone. It’s a sport that requires hours and hours of training and, when in the ring against an opponent, it can be painful. Now that he’s a professional, Macalolooy has become an inspiration and role model for many. His advice to those aspiring MMA fighters was simple: “I suggest you make sure you love it.” Macalolooy certainly has garnered a love for the sport, and remains optimistic, even through the tough days of training. “The training can become very brutal and tiresome if your heart is not in it,” said Macalolooy, who trains six days a week, with most training days two-a-day sessions. “But if the training is hard, the fight is easy. “Be willing to check your ego at the door if you plan on acquiring new skills, but more importantly, make sure you come to table with some skills to begin with,” added Macalolooy. “Getting punched in the face for the first time is a huge shock for most people. Go figure, right?” MMA has developed tremendously in recent years. According to Macalolooy, MMA has picked up so much popularity, fighters can only compete if they have decent skills in all of the four main disciplines, Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling and Jiu Jitsu. Now, Macalolooy noted, “Fighters are much more well-rounded.” Moreover, partly due to the intensity he spoke of, MMA is rapidly growing onto the mainstream audience. As for why, Macalolooy thinks he knows the reason. “It’s so real,” said Macalolooy. “There is no escape or blame. It is simply you and your opponent testing each other’s heart and skill.”

LETTER

TO THE

EDITOR

While most people aren't aware that part-time elected officials are getting perks worth thousands of dollars at taxpayer expense, other hard to justify "arrangements" have lately been well-exposed. A million dollar severance for an ousted BART director seems inappropriate. San Bruno residents have reason to be enraged about the ousted PG&E chief executive 35 million dollar package. Whoever took part in crafting those outrageous packages and getting them past ratepayers and taxpayers would have to admire what the City of Fremont did to unsuspecting citizens. It tried to sneak a $2 million skateboard park into a quiet established residential area. Then when residents eventually found out and resisted, the city sidestepped a multitude of obvious concerns (especially in the off-hours) brought up by EVERY resident in that area by rescinding the project and then reissuing it under a different number to remove all complaints associated with the previous project number. If the city was honestly interested in ALL its citizens, the skateboard park would be in the more prominent and appreciated area between Stevenson Blvd and the "Teen Center". This is near the tried and proven temporary site where it peacefully existed for years. City staff has publically admitted that the full one-acre skateboard park was doable in this area and could be done on-schedule, which means that it could have been completed this year. Maybe honest government is an oxymoron. Residents along Paseo Padre Parkway know first hand that the city cheated and lied (and more) to get their way on something as simple as a skateboard park. The multitude of problems associated with locating a free skateboard park adjacent to Aqua Adventures Waterpark has been well-documented. Those few city "leaders" in Fremont are setting up an "arrangement" that will be regretted by all. The city leads by example. Maybe cheaters do prosper ... Bob Fifield and others Fremont

several thousand transistors. Today they hold billions. The latest change isn't something that consumers will be able to see because it happens at a microscopic level. But analysts call it one of the most significant shifts in silicon transistor design since the integrated circuit was invented more than half a century ago. “When I looked at it, I did a big, ‘Wow.’ What we've seen for decades now have been evolutionary changes to the technology. This is definitely a revolutionary change,” said Dan Hutcheson, a longtime semiconductor industry watcher and CEO of VLSI Research Inc., who was briefed ahead of time on Intel's announcement. For consumers, the fact that Intel's transistors will have a third dimension means that they can expect a continuation of Moore's Law. The famous axiom, pronounced in 1965 by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, has guided the computer industry's efforts and given us decade after decade of cheaper and more powerful computers. The core of Moore's prediction is that computer performance will double every two years as the number of transistors on the chips roughly doubles as well. The progress has been threatened as transistors have been shrunken down to absurd proportions, and engineers have confronted physical limitations on how much smaller they can go. Controlling power leakage is a central concern. For Intel, which is based in Santa Clara, Calif., the change is a reminder of its leadership in advanced semiconductor technology and its incentive to keep Moore's Law alive.

Previous major changes have focused on new materials that can be used for transistors, not entire redesigns of the transistors themselves. “People have been trying to avoid changing the structure,” Hutcheson said. Other semiconductor companies argue that there's still life to be squeezed from the current design of transistors. Hutcheson agrees, but said Intel's approach should allow it to advance at least a generation ahead of its rivals, which include IBM Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. The reduced power consumption addresses a key need for Intel. The performance expectations and power requirements for PCs are much higher than they are for phones and tablet computers, so Intel's dominance in PC chips doesn't necessarily lead to success in mobile devices. Even Intel's Atom-based chips, which are designed for mobile devices, have been criticized as too power hungry. The new technology will be used for Intel's PC chips and its Atom line. Technological leadership alone won't guarantee success, however, as Intel has learned in repeated attempts at cracking the mobile market. Other chip makers such as Qualcomm Inc. and Texas Instruments Inc. have entrenched partnerships with cellphone makers, and there is suspicion about the performance of Intel's chips in mobile devices. “When it comes to the mobile market, they have their work cut out for them,” Hutcheson said of Intel. But “this gives you the transistors to build the next great system.”
