firefighters were called out to steinbeck elementary school in south san jose before 3:00 yesterday morninghere the firefighters found the building housing electrical components on fire. they stopped the flames from spreading to the main building. the school believes someone set the fire on purpose but fire officials say the cause is still under investigation. no one was injured. >>> a review of construction records and e-mails from the company which built the bay bridge found we'll probably spend millions of dollars on repairs. according to a report by the sacramento bee, the department of transportation built a chinese company to build the bridge despite the company had no experience building bridges. the paper says officials apparently thought the company would work faster and it cost about $250 million less than the next lowest bidder. but the report found in order to get it all done quickly, some of the work doesn't meet codes and probably will have to be fixed down the road. the department of transportation is defending its decision. >>> san jose mayor chuck reid is endorsing san rica

[laughter] really angry whale. [laughter] speaking of fish, peter benchly, the grandson of robert benchly, he of the algonquin round table, had a hard time coming up with the title for his famous book. the printer was saying, come on, we need a title. and they had, they had gotten it down to three choices; the jaws of death, leviathan rising and the shark. so you probably figured out what book we're talking about here. and his father, nathaniel benchly, mischievously proposed why don't you call it who's that noshing on my leg? [laughter] you can imagine, remember the opening bars in the movie, who's that noshing on my leg? [laughter] slightly undercut it. so anyway, you know, titles are problematic. joe heller's catch 22 was originally titled catch 18 for the eight years that he was working on it, it was catch 18. and then just before catch 23 -- catch 22 was to be published in august of 1961, hi
