Continued from Page 1 The last bond passed at about 56 percent and Newark voters overwhelmingly voted for it and pushed it to victory. It is expected that college staff, faculty and students will phone banks, speak to community groups about the need for the bond, and pass out fliers to obtain votes, just as they did to pass the prior bond in 2002. Last year, Ohlone employed the opinion research firm Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin & Associates and it found that 74 percent of the respondents polled believed state budget cuts harmed Ohlone. In accordance with state law, bond funds can be utilized only for infrastructure improvements and cannot be spent on salaries and supplies. A bond oversight committee oversees all expenditures of bond money. Ohlone has an excellent track record regarding bond oversight and audits, which is a facter, regarding passing a new bond.

So is the government specifically pointing out issues with its competition or will it be fair and recognize that its own GM products also have the exact same yet widely uncovered issues? To me, it seems that Toyota has a wide range of vehicles tailored for everyone; the Prius for the ecofriendly; the Scions for the underground cool; all the way to the Lexus for the uber-elite. Although right now the media seems to be attacking the entire fleet, I believe that Toyota will be able to rebuild its status just by being the way it always has. Whether it’s a conspiracy or not? You decide. In the meantime I’ll keep driving what I feel is my reliable and safe Toyota.
