OUCH!

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The same neighborhood groups
that successfully stopped a pro-
posed nine-home subdivision in
Redwood City from going forward
three years ago is again suing the
city over what they say is an inade-
quate review of the environmental
impacts.
The suit filed in San Mateo
County Superior Court Thursday
asks to immediately set aside all
city approvals related to the Finger
Avenue project and prevent devel-
oper Kirk McGowan from doing
anything to the site while the suit is
pending.
The legal move comes after repre-
sentatives from the Friends of
Cordilleras Creek and the Finger
Avenue Pride Committee met twice
with McGowan and a city-hired
facilitator to discuss the possibility
of buying the property as a way to
mitigate the impacts. Some progress
was made but there was signi-
cant disagreement on the value and
no agreement was reached within
the allotted time frame, according to
the suit.
The settlement discussions are
ongoing but the groups led the suit
because they only had 30 days to act
from the City Council vote last
month, said attorney Susan Brandt-
Hawley.
Filing protects the statute of limi-
tations if the negotiations fall
through.
But Jay Reed, a spokesman on
behalf of McGowan, said discus-

SACRAMENTO A new law
allowing Californians to register to
vote online appears to be having its
intended effect, attracting more than
400,000 users in its first three
weeks.
That may not be good news for
Republicans. Nearly a third of
online registrants were younger than
26 and were 2 1/2 times more likely
to register as Democrats than
Republicans, according to an early
sampling of nearly 51,000 online
registrations by Political Data Inc., a
nonpartisan company that provides
detailed voter information.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The owner of iconic Petes Harbor
in Redwood City will ask the
Planning Commission to approve
permits allowing developers to con-
vert the oating community into a
411-unit waterfront housing com-
plex that could uproot the boat-
dwelling tenants who call the mari-
na home.
Developer Paul Powers of RWC
Harbor Communities is asking for a
planned development permit that
includes a parking exception. The
plan doesnt require zoning changes
and therefore no special approvals
because it does not propose high-
rise buildings or the lling in of the
Bay.
Residents are worried the plan is
moving too fast and will take away
their affordable housing. They are
expected to attend the public hear-
ing much as they did at last weeks
City Council meeting. The tenants
previously met with owner Paula
Uccelli and were told that if the
property sells they can stay through
the end of this year.
Petes Harbor was the brainchild
of Paulas husband, Pete, who died
in September 2005. He opened the
21-acre harbor in 1958 on former
swamp land and it is now consid-
ered a landmark. However, since
June 2002, Paula Uccelli has
required all live-aboard leases to
include language acknowledging
the possibility of relocation. All

League of Legends crowns
$1 million champions
LOS ANGELES It had all the mak-
ings of an Olympic event: an indoor
arena, play-by-play announcers, 7,000
enthusiastic fans, uniformed competitors
from across the globe and swarms of
cameras capturing every angle of the
action. However, when the crowd erupt-
ed into a screaming frenzy each time a
player met his demise, it felt much more
like The Hunger Games.
The dizzying world championships of
the online battle arena game League of
Legends concluded Saturday night
inside the University of Southern
Californias Galen Center, which typi-
cally hosts basketball not video
games, with underdog Taiwans Taipei
Assassins defeating South Koreas
Azubu Frost to win the tournaments $1
million grand prize.

MiSTakE Hui Chung, Kurtis Toyz
Lau, Alex Lilballz Sung, Cheng Bo
Bebeisadog Wei and Wang June
Stanley Tsan bested Azubu Frost
members Jung RapidStar Min-sung,
Lee CloudTemplar Hyun-woo, Hong
MadLife Min-gi, Jang Woong Gun-
woong and Park Shy Sang-myeon in
three of four championship rounds.
The contest served as the latest exam-
ple of the increasing popularity of com-
petitive gaming or e-sports, as its
called. Unlike most multi-game e-sports
competitions, such as the World Cyber
Games and Major League Gaming, the
second season world championships of
League of Legends were organized
directly by the games developer, Riot
Games Inc.
Brandon Beck, the Riot Games CEO
who co-founded the studio with presi-
dent Marc Merrill in 2006, acknowl-
edges that League of Legends was
always designed to be more like a sport
than an interactive lm or virtual amuse-
ment park. He said because theres no
turnkey solutions for organizing e-
sports, Riot Games decided to hold the
contest themselves.
While e-sports have been around for
more than 15 years, the genre has yet to
achieve mainstream success in North
America, though its practically a
national pastime in South Korea. Thats
shifted over the past few years, as tech-
nology has evolved, Internet speeds have
become faster and more reliable and a
generation of spectating gamers have
grown up.
If you lump North America and
Europe together, e-sports are dramatical-
ly on the rise, said Beck. Theyre start-
ing to catch up, but its nowhere near as
mainstream as they are in some of these
other territories. Its not uncommon to
have a large, single-digit percentage of
the Korean population watching a
League of Legends nal on TV.
Each match of League of Legends
features two teams of ve players pick-
ing superhero-like characters with spe-
cial powers called Champions from a list
of more than 100, then attempting to
slaughter each other and destroy their
jungle arena bases. Riot Games mostly
makes money with the free-to-play
game by selling virtual items and char-
acters.
The studio recently declared League
of Legends as the most played game
in the world with 70 million players
hailing from 145 countries registering
for the game since it debuted in 2009.
Riot Games noted an average of 12 mil-
lion players are now logging on each
day, more than Call of Duty: Modern
Warfare 3, World of Warcraft or any
Facebook game.

I
n the 1850s, as a ship traveled through
the Golden Gate (with no bridge), the
captain immediately scoured the land to
the right for a good place to anchor the ship.
The rst ships pulled into a swampy area after
seeing the Presidio a short distance from the
water. The passage to the Presidio was dif-
cult and treacherous as the area was com-
pletely wetlands, full of shallow water, rushes
and birds. The Presidio was in disrepair with
few soldiers living there. Most of the soldiers
had been transferred to the Sonoma fort where
General Vallejo commanded them. This area
will eventually be lled in and Crissy Field
for aircraft will occupy the site.
The area where Marina Green exists now
was a vast wetland surrounded by sand dunes
and salt marshes. Very few residents lived in
the area in the mid-1850s. In 1854, Rudolph
Herman, a German, settled in San Francisco
and did a number of jobs until 1860 when he
opened a bath house called the North Beach.
After a successful beginning, Herman moved
to the north end of Baker Street and enlarged
his business and added a large hotel, a restau-
rant, picnic gardens, a complete system of hot
and cold water baths, changing rooms for a
Bay dip and two wharfs. The complex was
renamed Harbor View Park. The seafood
restaurant became well known for its clam
chowder, cracked crab and steam beer.
Business was brisk and other pleasure busi-
nesses opened such as a dance hall called the
Winter Garden on Baker near Beach, Seaside
Gardens at Baker and North Beach, Germania
Gardens at Baker and Jefferson and McLanes
Crab House at the foot of Fillmore Street.
Later, heavy industry developed in the area
such as Phelps Manufacturing Company at
Fillmore, Bay and Buchanan as well as The
San Francisco Gas and Light Company. As
the Bayview industry area developed, lodging
was needed for the workers. The Gareld
Hotel opened in the 1880s at Chestnut and
Fillmore. In the 1890s, the Jefferson Hotel at
Broderick and Jefferson housed mainly
employees of the iron works and ship yard.
The Bayshore and Fort Point Road, a
macadamized road was built along the shore
and the Presidio Road to the north also aided
transit to the pleasure centers. A stage line
provided transit from Portsmouth Square and
later omnibus service from South Park
(Rincon Hill) reached North Beach and
Harbor View. In 1866, Henry Casebolts City
Front, Mission and Ocean Railroad began
horsecar operation traveled outbound on
Sutter and Polk, then north to Broadway and
nally reached Hermans Hotel.
This Bayview property would be lled in
and used as a site for the 1915 Panama-Pacic
International Exposition.
Although the name Cow Hollow has
drifted into obscurity, at one time it was a well
known area a little south of the Marina. In
fact, there is a playground still bearing this
name in the Greenwich, Filbert, Broderick
and Baker area. In 1861, the Hartman family
started the rst dairy on land purchased near
the Washerwomans Lagoon. In the following
10 years, 60 dairies sprung up between the
Presidio and Van Ness Avenue, averaging 60
cows. A whole slew of families settled in the
area: Matthias family at the corner of Steiner
and Francisco, E.K. Knight, Frank Emhoff,
etc. By the middle 70s, a dozen dairies dotted
North Beach. The situation got so bad the city
banned cows in 1891. The sanitary conditions
became so bad that the milkers were forced to
move down the Peninsula or quit the business.
Another factor that made the Bayview area
so appealing for settling was a large lagoon
that was situated by Franklin, Filbert, Octavia
and Chestnut streets. This area was used since
the Presidio was established as it was a large
accessible body of shallow water in the then-
vacant land. Large caldrons full of heated
water could be used and then dumped back on
the ground or in the water. Washing clothes
became expensive when returning miners
began taking orders for washing clothing and
bedding. It became almost cheaper, and many
did this, to send your soiled clothing by boat
to the East Coast to be cleaned. The men
worked their trade on one side of the lagoon
and the women worked on the opposite side.
This worked for a few years until it became so
popular a site that it became extremely pollut-
ed. In 1877, the city sent prisoners to the
lagoon and it was lled in with sand from the
surrounding dunes.
Ships that followed the early ones found out
that the North Beach area was devoid of a
good area to unload supplies and load their
boats with hides, tallow and etc. but this North
Beach area was found to be good for other
things.
Rediscovering the Peninsula by Darold Fredricks
appears in the Monday edition of the Daily
Journal.

Shannon Haley and Ryan Michaels were
supposed to meet seven years before they
nally did.
It wasnt your traditional setup as in a
romantic blind date the Bay Area locals
were thought to be musically compatible.
Haley, who is from Los Altos, and Michaels,
from Palo Alto, both traveled quite a distance
before meeting in Nashville, Tenn. But those
who thought theyd mesh well were right.
Since that rst meeting in January 2011, the
duo that goes by Haley & Michaels has start-
ed recording together. On Oct. 25, theyll play
Club Fox in Redwood City. Its at that event
that the pre-release of their new album will be
available.
Finding harmony on stage started by nally
meeting.
Haley was in Los Angeles when a guitar
player suggested she meet his friend,
Michaels, who was in Nashville. At the time,
Haley was planning a move to Nashville.
It was over coffee at The Frothy Monkey
that they discovered, while each had different
musical styles, they shared identical inu-
ences. They enjoyed the same songs and knew
lyrics even to obscure songs. They even real-
ized how closely the two had grown up.
It wasnt long before they played together.
Michaels asked Haley to sing with him during
a performance at the Roxy in May 2011. In
December, they did a show at San Franciscos
Red Devil Lounge. Each played a set on their
own before taking the stage together as a duo.
It was their rst show together.
There was such a response to the duo. We
felt it, said Haley.
Both had played music for some time. Once
together, the work seemed to ow easily.
Everything has fell together so quickly as
soon as we started working together.
Despite not working together for long, the
Nashville-based group is starting to gain
recognition. They recently won two Nashville
Independent Music Awards, including the
award for Best Live Performers.
Haley & Michaels offer a welcoming style
of mellow rock music with well-balanced har-
monies. Those who have yet to be introduced
to their music can get a taste with the single
The Price I Pay, which is now available on
the website. A full-length album is expected
early next year but a pre-release will be
offered at the Redwood City show. In addi-
tion, while surrounded by locals, theyll debut
the music video.
Its really nice to be back to play music but

commercial, Endeavour arrived at
the California Science Center
Sunday to a greeting party of city
leaders and other dignitaries that
had expected it many hours earlier.
The Endeavour was still slowly
moving toward a hangar on the
grounds of the museum mid-
Sunday afternoon.
Organizers had planned a slow
trip, saying the spacecraft that once
orbited at more than 17,000 mph
would move at just 2 mph in its nal
voyage.
But that estimate turned out to be
generous, with Endeavour often
creeping along at a barely
detectable pace when it wasnt at a
dead stop due to difcult-to-maneu-
ver obstacles like trees and light
posts.
Saturday started off promising,
with Endeavour 90 minutes ahead
of schedule. But accumulated hur-
dles and hiccups caused it to run
hours behind at days end.
Some 400 trees had been removed
to avoid such situations, but ofcials
said most of the trees that gave them
trouble could not be cut down
because they were old or treasured
for other reasons, including some
planted in honor of Martin Luther
King Jr.
The crowd had its problems too.
Despite temperatures in the mid-
70s, several dozen people were
treated for heat-related injuries after
a long day in the sun, according to
re ofcials.
But it was a happy, peaceful
crowd, with reghters having only
to respond to a sheared hydrant and
a small rubbish re, and no reports
of any arrests.

LOS ANGELES Federal regulators
failed to pursue recalls after they found cad-
mium-tainted jewelry on store shelves,
despite their vow to keep the toxic trinkets out
of childrens hands, an Associated Press
investigation shows.
Ofcials at the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission also have not warned par-
ents about the contaminated items already in
their homes.
More than two years after the AP revealed
that some Chinese factories were substituting
cadmium for banned lead, the CPSC still has-
nt determined the extent of the contamina-
tion.
Contaminated jewelry is surely less preva-
lent in the U.S. than before its widespread
presence was first documented. However,
rings, bracelets and pendants containing cad-
mium and marketed for preteen girls were
purchased over the last year. The AP and rep-
resentatives of two consumer groups were
able to buy the items in Los Angeles, subur-
ban San Francisco, central Ohio and upstate
New York.
Despite touting its work as a model of
proactive regulation, the agency tasked with
protecting Americans from dangerous every-
day products often has been reactive or
inactive.
Take a childrens jewelry sweep the
CPSC conducted at stores nationwide. Testing
showed that six different items on shelves
including one referred to as a baby bracelet
were hazardous by the agencys guidelines.
Yet the agency neither pursued recalls nor
warned the public about the items, records
and interviews show.
In addition, the CPSC allowed Wal-Mart
Stores Inc. and Meijer, a smaller Midwest
chain, to pull from shelves jewelry that
unked safety testing without telling parents
who had previously purchased such items.
And it did not follow through on evidence it
developed that cadmium jewelry remains on
sale in local shops.
Agency staffers have consistently sided
with rms that argued their high-cadmium
items shouldnt be recalled not because
they were safe in the hands of kids, but
because they were deemed not to meet the
legal denition of a childrens product.
Also, the CPSC trusted retailers and jewelry
importers to self-police their inventories for
cadmium, but did not check whether they had
done so for at least a year.
In response to APs reporting, the CPSC
said it did all it could given limited resources.
A spokesman credited the agencys focus on
intercepting jewelry before it got onto shelves
as the reason that cadmium did not become
the widespread scourge that lead was several
years ago.
To be sure, the CPSC does have challenges.
Though the agencys resources have been
growing, by federal standards the CPSC is a
minnow a $115 million budget supports
just 545 full-time employees responsible for
regulating thousands of products.
And, under agency rules, it is difcult to
mandate that a rm recall an item.
While CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum
has claimed credit for reducing the presence
of cadmium in childrens jewelry, in fact,
faster and more forceful efforts have come
from elsewhere.
For example, major retailers including Wal-
Mart and Target Corp. began requiring safety
testing not the CPSC.

HARRISBURG, Pa. Arlen
Specter, who spent much of his 30-
year career in the U.S. Senate warn-
ing of the dangers of political intol-
erance, is remembered as one of
Congress best-known moderates
and was a member of both major
parties during his career. Now, two
years after he was voted out of
ofce, his death coincides with a
nding by political scientists that
Congress is more polarized than at
any point since Reconstruction.
Specter, who died Sunday, even
began a short-lived run for president
in 1995 on a
platform that
warned his fel-
l o w
Republicans of
the intolerant
right. He lost
his job after
crossing politi-
cal party lines
to make the
toughest vote he had ever cast in his
career when, in 2009, he became
one of three Republicans to vote for
President Barack Obamas econom-
ic stimulus bill.
Republican fury drove Specter to
the Democratic Party, where he lost
the 2010 primary.
Former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom
Ridge, who served six terms in the
U.S. House and as President George
W. Bushs rst Homeland Security
secretary, said he thinks a serious
third party could emerge on the
national stage in 2016 without bipar-
tisan agreement on major issues
including the debt and immigration.
I think the American public is fed
up with the inability of both parties
to nd common ground, Ridge said
Sunday.
Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., who
served four years with Specter, said
Sunday that he believes moderates
can still bring people together.
Its not going to happen naturally
or by accident, Casey said. We
have to work at it. ... Each individual
member of Congress has to take on
personal responsibility. ... He has to
keep the poison out of the water to
avoid the kind of demonization that
happens when people debate
issues.
Specter, Casey said, was one of
those people who could disagree
without demonizing.
The other two Republicans who
supported Obamas stimulus are
Maines two U.S. senators. One of
them, Olympia Snowe, announced
in February that she wasnt seeking
re-election. She said she was frus-
trated by my way or the highway
ideologies.
In one study of congressional
polarization, University of Georgia
professor of political science Keith
Poole mapped the political polariza-
tion of Congress by charting votes
and found that the parties are more
divided than at any time since
Reconstruction after drifting further
apart in the last 40 years.
In one essay, Poole said there are
no true moderates left in the House
of Representatives, and just a hand-
ful remaining in the Senate, in con-
trast to the Reagan era when about
half of the members of Congress
could be described as moderates.

ROSWELL, N.M. In a giant leap
from more than 24 miles up, a daredevil
skydiver shattered the sound barrier
Sunday while making the highest jump
ever a tumbling, death-defying
plunge from a balloon to a safe landing
in the New Mexico desert.
Felix Baumgartner hit Mach 1.24, or
833.9 mph, according to preliminary
data, and became the rst man to reach
supersonic speed without traveling in a
jet or a spacecraft after hopping out of a
capsule that had reached an altitude of
128,100 feet above the Earth.
Landing on his feet in the desert, the
man known as Fearless Felix lifted his
arms in victory to the cheers of jubilant
onlookers and friends.
When I was standing there on top of
the world, you become so humble, you
do not think about breaking records any-
more, you do not think about gaining
scientic data, he said after the jump.
The only thing you want is to come
back alive.
A worldwide audience watched live
on the Internet via cameras mounted on
his capsule as Baumgartner, wearing a
pressurized suit, stood in the doorway of
his capsule, gave a thumbs-up and leapt
into the stratosphere.
Sometimes we have to get really high
to see how small we are, an exuberant
Baumgartner told reporters outside mis-
sion control after the jump.
Baumgartners descent lasted for just
over nine minutes, about half of it in a
free fall of 119,846 feet, according to
Brian Utley, a jump observer from the
International Federation of Sports
Aviation. He said the speed calculations
were preliminary gures.
Baumgartner said traveling faster than
sound is hard to describe because you
dont feel it.
With no reference points, you dont
know how fast you travel, he said.
The 43-year-old former Austrian para-
trooper with more than 2,500 jumps
behind him had taken off early Sunday
in a capsule carried by a 55-story ultra-
thin helium balloon.
His ascent that was tense at times and
included concerns about how well his
facial shield was working.
Any contact with the capsule on his
exit could have torn his suit, a rip that
could expose him to a lack of oxygen
and temperatures as low as minus-70
degrees. That could have caused lethal
bubbles to form in his bodily uids.
But none of that happened. He activat-
ed his parachute as he neared Earth, gen-
tly gliding into the desert east of Roswell
and landing without any apparent dif-
culty. The images triggered another loud
cheer from onlookers at mission control,
among them his mother, Eva
Baumgartner, who was overcome with
emotion, crying.

Police arrest man after San Francisco standoff
SAN FRANCISCO Police have arrested a 28-year-old
Vallejo man after a standoff at a San Francisco home Sunday.
San Francisco police Sgt. Michael Andraychak says the
trouble started around 7 a.m. Sunday when police were called
out about shots red in the citys Alamo Square neighbor-
hood.
When ofcers arrived at the scene they found bullet casings
and blood on the ground.
Police surrounded a nearby home, where they believed the
suspect who red the shots was inside.
Andraychak says around 11 a.m., after ofcers ordered the
occupants of the home to come out, several adults and four
children walked out.
Police arrested two of the adults the Vallejo man and a
30-year-old woman. Their names have not been released, but
the man was described by police as a possible suspect in the
shooting. He was being held on a no-bail probation violation
warrant out of Solano County.

SAN DIEGO A man dressed in camouage who
exchanged gunre with police in the lobby of a downtown San
Diego building was arrested a short time later after being
found bloodied and staggering on the street.
City News Service reports the suspect was no longer armed
when he was taken into custody early Sunday on Market
Street. He had apparently been shot by police.
Police ofcials say ofcers responded after a call came in
about a man walking through downtown carrying a rie.
When they spotted him a shootout erupted.

BURLINGTON, Mass. As
Mitt Romneys campaign claimed
new momentum in the race for the
White House, President Barack
Obamas political advisers on
Sunday promised the incumbent
would unleash his more aggressive
side in Tuesdays debate to prevent
their Republican rival from deliver-
ing another magical and theatrical
performance.
Obama and Romney hunkered
down in private debate preparation
for much of the day as aides offered
a pre-debate sparring match on tele-
vision.
They disagreed on much, but
agreed that Romney bested Obama
in their rst meeting nearly two
weeks ago a performance that
shifted the direction of a race that
had favored the
president but
has since tight-
ened in national
and battle-
ground state
polls.
He knows
Mitt Romney
had a better
night at the rst
debate, Obama spokeswoman
Jennifer Psaki said of the president.
The American people should
expect to see a much more ener-
gized President Obama.
Ed Gillespie, senior adviser to the
Romney campaign, quipped that the
former Massachusetts governor
would be prepared regardless of
Obamas adjustments: The presi-
dent can change his style. He can
change his tactics. He cant change
his record.
Obama spent
the day with
aides in swing
state Virginia,
while Romney
stayed close to
his Boston-area
home ahead of
T u e s d a y s
p r i me - t i me ,
town hall-style debate at Hofstra
University in Hempstead, N.Y.,
exactly three weeks before the Nov.
6 election.
Romneys advisers suggested the
Republican nominee would continue
to moderate his message in tone,
if not substance as he did in the
Oct. 3 meeting to help broaden his
appeal to the narrow slice of unde-
cided voters. In recent days, Romney
has promised his tax plan would not
benet the wealthy, emphasized his
work with Democrats as
Massachusetts governor and down-
played plans to strengthen the
nations abortion laws.
He told an Iowa newspaper this
week, for example, that he would
not pursue abortion-related legisla-
tion if elected. Thats in direct con-
ict with last years pledge to the
anti-abortion group, the Susan B.
Anthony List, to cut federal funding
from Planned Parenthood and sup-
port legislation to protect unborn
children who are capable of feeling
pain from abortion.
I think Mitt Romneys perform-
ance was, indeed, magical and the-
atrical. Magical and theatrical large-
ly because for 90 minutes he walked
away from a campaign he had been
running for more than six years pre-
vious to that, Obama senior cam-
paign adviser Robert Gibbs said of
the rst debate.
While the debates have proved
critical, they are one element in
larger campaigns that involve exten-
sive ground games in virtually every
state across the nation and a televi-
sion ad war that may consume $1
billion before Election Day.
Through Monday, either absentee
or in-person early voting has begun
in 43 states.
Romney on Sunday released a
new television spot showcasing
footage from running mate Paul
Ryans rst and only face off with
Vice President Joe Biden last week.
The ad features clips of Ryan saying
the government cant keep spend-
ing money we dont have.
The comments are juxtaposed
with video from the debate of Biden
laughing.
Debate preparation trumps campaigning
Barack Obama Mitt Romney
By David Crary
BOWIE, Md. Irene Huskens
has the wedding venue picked out: a
charming bed-and-breakfast in
southern Maryland. But the wed-
ding is no sure thing.
The plans made by Huskens, a 43-
year-old police captain, and her
partner, Leia Burks, hinge on
whether Marylanders make history
on Nov. 6 by voting to legalize
same-sex marriage. A yes vote,
and the wedding is on. A no vic-
tory? Huskens is loath to consider it.
There are a lot of Marylanders
who want to set the precedent of
equality who will vote from their
gut for fairness, she said at her
colonial suburban home in Prince
Georges County, where she and
Burks are raising two adopted chil-
dren.
Dating back to 1998, 32 states
have held votes on same-sex mar-
riage, and all 32 have opposed it.
Maryland is one of four states with
Nov. 6 referendums on the issue
and gay-marriage advocates believe
theres a strong chance the streak
will be broken.
In Maryland, Maine and
Washington, its an up-or-down vote
on legalizing same-sex marriage. In
Minnesota, theres a measure to
place a ban on gay marriage in the
state constitution, as 30 other states
have done previously.
Groups supporting same-sex mar-
riage, which has been legalized by
court rulings or legislative votes in
six states and the District of
Columbia, are donating millions of
dollars to the four campaigns.
Theyre hoping for at least one vic-
tory to deprive their foes of the
potent argument that gay marriage
has never prevailed at the ballot box.
Our opposition uses this talking
point with elected ofcials and in
courtrooms, said Chad Griffin,
president of the Human Rights
Campaign. The national gay-rights
group is contributing more than
$4.4 million to the four state cam-
paigns.
If were able to win one of these
four, it will be a narrative change
proof that the public has moved our
way dramatically, said Grifn.
Opponents of gay marriage
expect to be outspent in the four
states, perhaps by more than 2-to-1
overall, yet they remain hopeful
their winning streak can be pre-
served.
We denitely can win all four if
we can increase the fundraising,
said Brian Brown of the National
Organization for Marriage, which
has pumped more than $2 million
into the campaigns against gay mar-
riage. Its TV advertising is just
beginning, including in the expen-
sive markets that reach Marylanders
in the Washington, D.C., suburbs.
We do have a big hill to climb to
be able to effectively communicate
our message, Brown said. But we
dont need to match the other side
we win repeatedly while being
outspent.
All four states are expected to be
carried in November by President
Barack Obama, who came out in
support of same-sex marriage earli-
er this year.
At 0-32, gay-marriage forces seek first win at polls

The Republican makeover
Editor,
Wisconsin congressman and
Republican vice presidential candidate,
Mr. Paul Ryan, portrays himself as a
free enterprise loving, scally responsi-
ble, socially conservative guy.
However, during the Wall Street bailout
debate, he emphatically argued in
Congress on behalf of the Wall Street.
To quote, Heaven help us if we fail to
pass this (referring to then-Treasury
Secretary Hank Paulsons three page
proposal), I fear the worst is yet to
come. Thanks to C-SPAN and Michael
Moores lm Capitalism: A Love
Story, the video clip is preserved. The
etch-a-sketch makeover is not only
applicable to the Republican presiden-
tial candidate Romney but also to the
vice presidential candidate Ryan.

Vice presidential debate
Editor,
Does sneering, snickering and gig-
gling make you appear vice presiden-
tial? Whoever coached Vice President
Biden gave him questionable advice.
Was the strategy to intimidate
Congressman Ryan? If so, it didnt
appear to work; Congressman Ryan did
not crumble. Was Vice President Biden
not aware that the audience could view
both of them at the same time? Did he
think that rude and boorish behavior
would not be noticed? Were any swing
voters swayed toward the Obama/Biden
ticket?

We need a day for boys
Editor,
I agree with David Lims guest per-
spective column published in the Oct.
11 edition of the Daily Journal lauding
the United Nations International Day
of the Girl, although a year-long
observance would be better. However, I
think someone should propose a similar
awareness period for boys, who need
far better role models for what it means
to be a man, especially a father.

Fooled again?
Editor,
Although George W. Bush stumbled
over his wording, what he meant was
clear enough when he said: Fool me
once, shame on you! Fool me twice,
shame on me! Even though Bush was
not really elected president back in
2000, he was selected with the help of
voter suppression and Supreme Court
intervention, and we were shamelessly
fooled, twice! Before he ran for his
second term, we should have known
better and rejected him soundly based
on his actions from his rst term.
It seems like about half the voters are
ready to be fooled again, by
Republican lies, misrepresentation, ad
hominem attacks, voter fraud and sup-
pression. Are we really such slow
learners that we need a third
Republican term to understand how
detrimental their policies are for the
nation, and the world? Are we still
falling for the myth that Republicans
are good for the economy, for jobs, the
stock market and world peace? While
President Obama has proved capable of
cleaning up a lot of the mess Bush left
behind, the Republican Romney/Ryan
ticket will bring not only more of the
same, but probably even worse since
the Supreme Court will be stacked with
even more right wingers in the future.

Liar, liar
Editor,
Are his pants on re? In his debate
with Obama, Mitt Romney proved that
many religious leaders are wrong. He
proved that it is easier to lie than tell
the truth. Check the facts, Jack! The
fact checkers proved that, God forbid,
Romney lied and made up his facts
through sheer imagination. Do we want
a liar as our president?

The Orange County Register
C
alifornia has the highest-paid
state employees among the 50
states, but close to the lowest
number of state employees per capita.
The numbers come from a new analysis
by Center for Continuing Study of the
California Economy, an independent
think tank based in Palo Alto. The
analysis used 2011 data from the U.S.
Census Bureau.
The average salary for California
state employees was $70,777. That was
ahead of salaries in four liberal
Northeastern states: New Jersey,
$69,302; Connecticut, $67,828; New
York, $67,250; and Rhode Island,
$63,678. Its also nearly 40 percent
higher than salaries in our Western
competitor Texas, at $51,449.
Those numbers were just for state
employees. When state and local
employees are combined, California
still is tops with $67,524 average
salaries, compared to $65,188 for No. 2
New Jersey, and just $45,022 for Texas.
Thats worth keeping in mind when
Gov. Jerry Brown and others insist we
need to raise taxes, via Propositions 30
and 38, to avoid deeper cuts in state
services and classroom teaching.
When ranking states based on ratio of
state employees to population,
California in 2011 ranked fth-lowest,
at 467 per 10,000 residents. Nevada
was lowest, at 420 per 10,000, followed
by Arizona, 433; Mississippi, 462; and
Pennsylvania, 465.
A lot of government workers prefer
it this way, Assemblyman Chris Norby,
R-Fullerton, told us. But I would
rather have more and pay them less.
However, Mr. Norby, a former public
school teacher, cautioned that, in some
areas, such as teaching, the best mix
seems to be higher-paid, excellent
teachers teaching large classes.
The problem, alas, is that teacher
tenure and other rules promote compen-
sation based more on longevity than
teacher effectiveness. Mr. Norby also
noted that, in public education in
California, more than half the money
is going to teacher salaries. The rest is
going to administration.
The result is shown in state test
scores, in which California students
routinely nish near the bottom of the
states.
We also have noted in previous edito-
rials that both the University of
California and California State
University systems now employ more
administrators than professors. The
administrators commonly make more,
on average, than the professors.
University professors also have a
lower teaching load than 20 years ago,
Mr. Norby said. The universities are
administratively top-heavy. They have
to spend a lot on mandatory programs.
Mandatory K-12 programs also add to
costs. Look at whom they are serving:
The people or the mandates?
The mandates have come from feder-
al programs with strings attached to the
funding. But they also have come from
state mandates written by the
Legislature that have bulked up the
California Education Code to 12 vol-
umes.
As the past 20 years have shown, the
bureaucracy and public-employee
unions make reforms all but impossible.
But at least when they come asking for
more tax money, we can point out that
they already make more than any other
state employees in the nation.
Fewer, but very well-paid, state workers
Dont get
sick on the
weekend
M
edical care has certainly changed in past decades
and continues to evolve in San Mateo County. The
days of house visits are a thing of the past. While
you may be able to confer with your doctor or the doctor on
call over the weekend, dont expect to be seen. Your best alter-
native will be the nearest emergency room or urgent care clin-
ic. The assumption that it is
primarily the uninsured who
go to the emergency room for
care is not quite accurate. Just
talk to parents who visit the
emergency room on week-
ends when their child is very
sick, or hurt, or needs imme-
diate attention.
***
I remember when our pedi-
atricians made several trips to
our house to administer to
kids with very high fevers,
etc. And if the child wasnt
that sick, the doctor would
meet you at his ofce during
the weekend. Those days are gone. And its probably not
because doctors are unwilling, but its not in their current job
description. Meanwhile, todays re departments spend about
80 percent of their time in providing medical assistance, not
putting out res.
***
As life expectancy veers toward 100, the number of seniors
seeking and needing medical care has made a quantum leap.
The labs and X-ray rooms are full of waiting patients, most of
them over 70, from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Its a big business, the taking
and analysis of blood and the ultra modern screenings now
available, from MRIs to complex scans. As technology
improves and becomes more expensive and seniors live longer
and longer, its a perfect storm when it comes to cost and who
will pick up the bill. No one wants or should want to deny the
elderly the care they need and deserve. But how to make it
more efcient and still be effective is something else. San
Mateo County is home to a high proportion of elder citizens. In
some of our cities, the elderly are the fastest growing segment
of the population.
***
Another change is the precarious situation of doctors in indi-
vidual practice. Everywhere you go in the county you see the
expansion of Kaiser Permanente and the Palo Alto Medical
Foundation (PAMF). The building next to Mills Hospital has
been bought by PAMF and many, if not most, of the doctors
who had ofces there have moved. Also do not be surprised if
you get a note from your doctor that he or she has a new
address and afliation ( probably now part of PAMF). Will this
bring economies of scale or just add to the costs of health care?
And will new doctors be willing to take the risk of opening an
ofce on their own or with a few colleagues or, on the other
hand, decide the future will be more secure by becoming a
Kaiser physician?
***
Remember the family doctor who took care of you from
birth to the grave? No more. Now even doctors who list them-
selves under internal medicine usually have another specialty.
If you are on Medicare, no doubt you have several doctors, one
for each ailment. You see one M.D. for the right nger and
another M.D. for the left toe. To address the decentralization of
medicine, there are now electronic records so your various doc-
tors can keep up with your latest blood tests or X-rays. Thats
progress. But dont be surprised if your doctor spends more
time looking at the computer than he or she does looking at
you.
***
A quarter or more of Medicare costs are incurred in the last
years of life. Bill Keller, former executive editor of the New
York Times and former San Mateo resident, asks in a recent
op-ed of the Times: are we squandering a fortune to buy a few
weeks or months of a life spent hooked to machinery and con-
sumed by fear and discomfort. That last year of life offers a
tempting target if we want to contain costs and assure that
Medicare and Medicaid exist for future generations. However,
Keller concludes saving money isnt the right answer or neces-
sarily the correct one. Cost-benet analysis doesnt lend itself
easily to good medical care. One example the unregulated
compounding of cheaper drugs which led to the current menin-
gitis outbreak. Unfortunately, there is no free exam, test or pill.
Someone has to pay. That someone is Medicare/Medi-Cal.
Otherwise known as the taxpayer. Can we cut costs (payments
to doctors, drug companies, and hospitals and unlimited servic-
es for aging seniors) to keep us solvent?

WASHINGTON With the outcome
of next months presidential election
increasingly hazy, heres a shred of clar-
ity that investors can cling to: The tax
rates they pay on investment income like
stock prots and dividends are almost
certain to change.
Whether rates rise or fall could affect
the prices of some dividend-paying
stocks, experts say. Some, mainly
Republicans, believe that lower rates
would boost the economy and lift mar-
kets.
Under the current system, people pay
the government 15 percent on most div-
idends and capital gains, the prots from
selling investments. Both candidates
proposals would divide taxpayers into
two categories: Those who earn more
than $200,000 per year $250,000 for
families ling joint tax returns and
those who earn less.
President Barack Obama would boost
the rate on capital gains to 20 percent for
higher earners and leave it at 15 percent
for everyone else. Mitt Romney wants to
maintain the 15 percent rate for wealthi-
er people and eliminate the tax entirely
for everyone else.
The differences are more dramatic
when it comes to dividends. Obama
would tax high earners dividends as
ordinary income, up to 39.6 percent for
the wealthiest Americans. As with capi-
tal gains, Romney would maintain the 15
percent rate for richer people and elimi-
nate the tax for people who make less.
The proposals reflect philosophical
differences between the parties.
Republicans think lower rates will
encourage more people to invest, juicing
the listless economy.
It would encourage you to take more
risks, put more capital into the economy
and hopefully spur economic growth,
says Taylor Griffin, who advises
Republican campaigns and served in the
Treasury Department under President
George W. Bush.
Democrats say its only fair that peo-
ple who have succeeded in amassing
wealth should pay a larger share of the
nations expenses. Higher rates did little
to discourage investment during the
1990s, when Bill Clinton was in ofce
and the economy boomed. During that
period, Obama said last month while
explaining his tax plan, we created 23
million new jobs, the biggest surplus in
history, and a whole lot of millionaires,
to boot.
The election is not the nal word on
next years tax rates. Both houses of
Congress would have to approve any
changes. Lawmakers have been dead-
locked for years on taxes and spending,
so any changes would likely be part of a
broader bargain to postpone or avoid the
so-called scal cliff at the end of 2012.
Thats when automatic government
spending cuts would take effect if law-
makers cant agree. In another blow, if
no deal is reached, tax rates for every-
body would return to the higher levels in
effect before a series of cuts rst passed
during the Bush years.
Dividend rates for the highest earners
would be almost three times as high, a
huge increase, says Raymond Radigan,
managing director with U.S. Banks
wealth management division.
Retirees and others who rely on
investment income, even if theyre in
lower tax brackets, could nd dividend-
paying stocks less attractive, says Adrian
Day, whose Adrian Day Asset
Management invests about $180 million
for wealthy clients. To replace the lost
income, they might buy riskier assets
like junk bonds, Day says.
Yet raising the tax rate on dividends
wouldnt necessarily hurt dividend
stocks. Some companies might simply
eliminate their dividends, says Cliff
Caplan, a financial planner with
Neponset Valley Financial Partners in
Norwood, Mass.
Apple, for example, announced its
rst dividend in July, after running out
of other uses for its colossal cash
reserves. If the tax rate on dividends
nearly triples, Caplan says, I can see
them saying, Screw it. Why pay it out
when your investor is going to get killed
on taxes?
How will candidates tax
plans impact investors?
SAN FRANCISCO Corrosion that
went unchecked the suspected cause
of a re at Chevron Corp.s Richmond
renery in August has been linked to a
re at the plant in October 2011, the San
Francisco Chronicle reported Sunday.
A state Division of Occupational
Safety and Health inspector who investi-
gated the smaller 2011 re documented
allegations from two workers of corro-
sion at the renery. The 2011 re took
place during a scheduled maintenance
shutdown and was quickly extinguished.
Were afraid something is going to
fall through the cracks, one worker told
Cal/OSHA safety inspector Carla Fritz,
who went to the plant to investigate the
re last November.
Were concerned about increased cor-
rosion weve increased temperatures
and increased rates, and it takes a toll on
the equipment, said the worker, who
was identied in Fritzs notes as head
operator of the lube oil plant the most
senior of a 20-member operator crew.

WASHINGTON Social Security recipients shouldnt
expect a big increase in monthly benets come January.
Preliminary gures show the annual benet boost will be
between 1 percent and 2 percent, which would be among the
lowest since automatic adjustments were adopted in 1975.
Monthly benets for retired workers now average $1,237,
meaning the typical retiree can expect a raise of between $12
and $24 a month.
The size of the increase will be made ofcial Tuesday, when
the government releases ination gures for September. The
announcement is unlikely to please a big group of voters 56
million people get benets just three weeks before elections
for president and Congress.
The cost-of-living adjustment, or COLA, is tied to a govern-
ment measure of ination adopted by Congress in the 1970s. It
shows that consumer prices have gone up by less than 2 percent
in the past year.
Basically, for the past 12 months, prices did not go up as
rapidly as they did the year before, said Polina Vlasenko, an
economist at the American Institute for Economic Research,
based in Great Barrington, Mass.
This year, Social Security recipients received a 3.6 percent
increase in benets after getting no increase the previous two
years.
Some of next years raise could be wiped out by higher
Medicare premiums, which are deducted from Social Security
payments. The Medicare Part B premium, which covers doctor
visits, is expected to rise by about $7 per month for 2013,
according to government projections.
The premium is currently $99.90 a month for most seniors.
Medicare is expected to announce the premium for 2013 in the
coming weeks.
The COLA continues to be very critical to people in keep-
ing them from falling behind, said David Certner, AARPs
legislative policy director.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If its true that you only get one chance to make a rst
impression, than the College of San Mateo football team
just spoke volumes.
Behind a defense that allowed only 107 yards of total
offense, the Bulldogs began their 2012 NorCal Coast
Conference schedule against Foothill College with a 37-3
win.
It was denitely a big step in the right direction for our
team, said CSM assistant head coach and defensive coor-
dinator Tim Tulloch. We played well in all phases. The
guys did a really good job the last two weeks of focusing
on the corrections and the mistakes of the rst ve games
making a commitment and saying were all in, were
committed to this game and each other.
The Bulldogs used a couple of huge quarters of offense
to distance themselves from the Owls.
We had the guys pick one thing to do better and the
whole team was going to hold them accountable, Tulloch
said. You could see the hard work and effort paid off on
the eld. We were happy with the play.
Defensively, the Bulldogs put on a clinic. They shut
down the Foothill rushing attack to the tune of two yards
a carry (31 carries, 66 yards). And passing, the Owls
came in averaging over 200 yards a game. On Saturday,
they were held to 41.
We denitely wanted to take away their top receiver,
Chris Williams, who averaged 120 yards a game, Tulloch
said. Their two best players are him and their running
back and so a lot of our focus was on them. We just need-

SAN FRANCISCO The San
Francisco Giants are showing how
little home-eld advantage matters
in the baseball playoffs.
Madison Bumgarner allowed two
homers and got knocked out early
for the second time this postseason
and the Giants once again got off to
a bad start to a series at home, los-
ing Game 1 of the NL champi-
onship series 6-4 to the St. Louis
Cardinals on Sunday night.
The Giants have lost all three
home games so far this postseason,
with Bumgarner taking the defeat in
two of them. They managed to over-
come that in the rst round against
Cincinnati by becoming the rst
team ever to win the nal three
games of a best-of-ve series on the
road.
But if San Francisco is to make it
back to the World Series for a sec-
ond time in three years, the team
must win at AT&T Park at least
once this series against the wild-
card Cardinals.
Game 2 will be Monday night
with San Franciscos Ryan
Vogelsong taking on St. Louis
Chris Carpenter.
Playing at home has usually been
a big advantage for the Giants, who
excel with the nightly sellouts and
spacious dimensions that help the
pitching staff. San Francisco had a
48-33 record at AT&T Park during
the regular season and won ve of
seven postseason home games on
the way to the World Series title two
years ago.
That hasnt been the case this
October as the Giants have been
outscored 20-6 in the three home
games. The common theme so far

The cruel reality of life as a foot-
ball player is that sometimes,
dreams fall a couple of yards short.
The Serra High School football
team found this out on Saturday
afternoon, falling to Bellarmine
Prep High School in overtime 35-34
after a missed 2-point conversion
fell apart at the 2-yard line. The loss
was the rst for Serra this season.
Zero, said Serra head coach
Patrick Walsh of his choice to go for
2. The regrets I have are, I didnt
positively prep, as the defensive
coordinator, for this team to play
better and avoid that situation. The
rst play of overtime, its a 10-yard
touchdown (for Bellarmine).
Adding up all the data, Eric
Redwood is having a great game,
the offensive line is blocking well,
so in terms of that decision, zero
regrets. Ill sleep comfortably
tonight. Of course, I wish we would
have got it.
Redwood was stopped after tak-
ing the ball off the left side of the
offensive line. It was one of the few
times the Bells were able to shut
down No. 2. Redwood rushed for
180 yards on 22 carries and four
touchdowns.
Bellarmine had a good defense
today, Redwood said. I tried and
put my heart out there. I just didnt
get it. So its a disappointment. But
well come back.
Hes an inspiring person, Walsh
said of Redwood. Hes traversed
some difcult territory. Im really
proud of what hes done, as a human
being. And its reective of how hes
been running the ball for Serra. I
feel no different about this team
now than I did before this game.
Unfortunately its 35-34
Serra loses to Bellarmine

SAN FRANCISCO The New
York Giants gave the San Francisco
49ers another reason to simmer.
Antrel Rolle intercepted two pass-
es by Alex Smith, Prince
Amukamara picked off another and
the Giants shut down San Francisco
in a 26-3 victory over the 49ers on
Sunday in a rematch of last seasons
NFC championship game.
After outscoring the Bills and Jets
by a combined 79-3 the last two
weeks, the 49ers (4-2) met their
match again with Eli Manning and
New Yorks top team. No overtime
needed this time, and not much of
Manning either.
Manning threw for 193 yards and
one touchdown, Ahmad Bradshaw
ran for 116 yards and a score and
New York (4-2) rode a dominant
defense and four elds by Lawrence
Tynes to hand outspoken 49ers
coach Jim Harbaugh the most lop-
sided loss of his tenure.
What a San Francisco treat.
The Giants grinded out a 20-17
overtime win at rain-soaked
Candlestick Park on Jan. 22, capital-
izing on two fumbles by fill-in
returner Kyle Williams en route to
another Super Bowl title over the
Patriots. All week some San
Francisco players talked about
unfinished business, and
Harbaugh added to the hype when
he red back a strongly worded
statement criticizing Giants offen-
sive coordinator Kevin Gilbride for
saying All-Pro defensive end Justin
Smith often gets away with mur-
der holding linemen.
For all the hoopla, the rematch
was never close.
Amukamaras interception in the
second quarter started a surge of
New York offense. Smith, who wore
tape around his sprained middle n-
ger, lofted the pass too high and
allowed Amukamara to leap under-
neath the ball before tight end
Delanie Walker even had a chance at
the Giants 33.
At one point in the rst half,
Manning completed eight consecu-
tive passes for 142 yards and had the
usually stout San Francisco defense
out of sorts. Domenik Hixon caught
passes of 39 and 16 yards on con-
secutive third downs, and Victor
Cruz followed with a 6-yard touch-
down catch and his usual salsa
dance in the end zone to give the
Giants rout 49ers

Bellarmine. Thats the only thing that hurts
right now.
Serra ran for 321 yards as a team on
offense, but didnt quite gure out how to
shut down the Bells passing attack. The
Padres went up 7-0 with 8:44 left in the rst
quarter after Bellarmine fumbled the ball on
its rst play from scrimmage. Redwood did
the honors from two yards out.
The Bells responded a little more than four
minutes later on a 16-yard touchdown pass to
make it 7-7. But after shutting down the Serra
offense on its next drive, the Bells turned the
ball over once again and the Padres made
them pay for it, taking the ball 15 plays and
77 yards for the 14-7 lead, this time on a 10-
yard touchdown catch from Zack Kazakoff to
Fia Malepeai, whose great effort at the goal
line snuck the ball just inside the pylon.
But Bellarmine would not be denied and
they capped off the second quarter with a cou-
ple of big scores that gave them the momen-
tum they rode all the way to the win.
First, a 6-play, 56-yard drive tied the score
at 14 with 1:17 left in the half. Then, after
shutting down the Padres on three plays, the
Bells blocked a punt and returned it to the
house for a 21-14 lead heading into halftime.
The major lesson of the day, at the end of
the rst half, we were playing with heavy
hearts and a lot of responsibility, Walsh said.
And the kids put a smile on their face at half-
time and it was more fun in the second half.
The rst half was stressful and thats not the
way its supposed to be. Were supposed to
have fun. And the aura of the team and the
stadium was better in the second half and Im
really proud of the boys for that.
The Padres did look like a more inspired
football team in the second half, although
they went down 28-14 following another long
Bellarmine drive that made it 28-14 with 2:22
left in the third quarter. Kj Carta-samuels was
nearly unstoppable for Bellarmine. The new
Bells quarterback threw for 201 yards in the
game and ran for another 31. Plus, when
Bellarmine needed a big play, No. 10 was up
to the task.
I would say it came down to 1 ? phases of
the game, Walsh said. I think they won the
game on special teams. It was really really
damaging. And our pass defense was porous.
Bellarmine executed well. It was just seems
that some times, it was just too easy to com-
plete passes.
Serra responded behind a packed house, led
by the running of Redwood.
First, the senior tailback rushed for a 3-yard
touchdown with 11:01 left in the game to cap
off a 9-play drive. Then, on the longest play
of the afternoon, No. 2 fought off a couple of
would-be tacklers on what looked to be a
short run and dashed down the Serra sideline
for a phenomenal 75-yard TD run with 6:23
left in the game.
My line blocked well, Redwood said,
and I had to shed a couple of tackles. It was
full-on sprint from there.
After both teams stalled on drives to end the
game, Bellarmine, behind Carta-samuels 10-
yard touchdown pass, took the lead 35-28.
Three plays into the Serras offensive pos-
session, Redwood was called upon and his 4-
yard run made it 35-34. Walsh chose to gam-
ble behind a line that had been blocking well
the entire afternoon. But the Bells defense
was up to the task and shut down Redwood at
the 2-yard line, much to the chagrin of the
Serra faithful.
We denitely the team to bounce back
because we play with our hearts and were a
brotherhood, Redwood said after the loss.
SERRA
ed to play team defense without mistakes or
breakdowns over the top make them earn
everything.
The teams were shut out in the rst quarter,
but with six seconds expired in the second
quarter, Jerrell Brown found the end zone on
a 20-yard run to make it 7-0 Bulldogs.
Five minutes after that, George Naufahus
1-yard run doubled the CSM lead.
The offensive line controlled the line of
scrimmage, Tulloch said of his teams 255
yards rushing. Our backs ran extremely hard
and we as team, we addressed the turnovers ...
which has been our Achilles Heel. That made
a huge difference.
Blake Plattsmier started at quarterback for
CSM and orchestrated a 409-yard afternoon
his 9-yard run with 14:55 left in the game
made it 24-3.
Three minutes later, the quarterback
showed he could do it with his arm, hooking
up with Aaron Criswell on an 80-yard touch-
down pass to make it 30-3 and all but seal the
deal for CSM.
The Owls on the other hand, did nothing
against CSM other than turn the ball over
three times all on interceptions.
The guys just played really well together,
Tulloch said of a defense that only missed
three tackles the entire afternoon. When we
play like that, its nice to see. Were a tough
defense when we do that.
Chris Changs 12-yard touchdown catch
with six minutes left in the game made it 37-
3.
We were ring on all cylinders, Tulloch
said. Thats how we wanted to start it off. It
was a good team effort.
Plattsmier nished 13 of 20 for 154 passing
and two touchdowns. Brown paced the rush-
ing attack running for 76 yards on 11 car-
ries. Plattmier rushed for 66 yards and
Naufahu had 53 on eight carries.
CSM
Giants a 7-3 lead in the second quarter.
New Yorks next drive stalled and Tynes
kicked a 34-yard eld goal to go ahead 10-3.
Tarell Brown blocked a 40-yard attempt by
Tynes, San Francisco took over with 8 sec-
onds left before half and wildcat quarterback
Colin Kaepernick completed a 36-yard pass
to Mario Manningham the former Giant
before David Akers missed wide left from 52
yards as time expired.
Akers, who tied the NFL record with a 63-
yard eld goal in a Week 1 win at Green Bay,
also hooked a 43-yard eld goal wide right on
San Franciscos rst drive.
He made a 42-yarder from the same right
hash mark. The All-Pro kicker is 11 of 16 this
season.
Once the break was over, the Giants sent
San Francisco spiraling down and out in a
New York minute.
David Wilson returned the second-half
kickoff 66 yards to set up Bradshaws 1-yard
TD run. That extended New Yorks lead to 17-
3 and quieted the Candlestick crowd
except for the Giants fans that sprinkled the
stands blue on a sun-splashed day along the
bay.
On San Franciscos next two possessions,
Rolle intercepted Smiths passes to foil any
49ers rally.

blame on himself.
Palmer believes his lone intercep-
tion, which Falcons cornerback
Asante Samuel returned 79 yards
late in the fourth quarter, was the
games turning point.
We fought hard all game, he
said. We had a great game plan,
and I let the team down. I let our
fans down. Making the mistake I
made was crucial, and thats on me.
Thats my fault.
Beginning the
game with a 1-3
record for the
sixth time in
eight years, the
Raiders had
used their bye
week to design a
solid game plan
that flustered
Atlanta quarter-
back Matt Ryan into a season-worst
59.4 passer rating while Oaklands
offense up 474 yards.
Darren McFadden had 70 of the
Raiders 149 yards rushing and
Denarius Moore caught ve passes
for 104 yards as both players
accounted for a touchdown, but
Oakland still made too many costly
mistakes.
Palmer and McFadden each lost
fumbles, and the Raiders, who con-
trolled the ball nearly 13 minutes
longer than the Falcons, were whis-
tled 12 times for penalties for 110
yards.
I thought we came out here and
competed today, coach Dennis
Allen said. I thought we played
extremely hard. Offensively, I
thought we were able to move the
ball. We just werent able to nish
things off.
The Raiders defense flustered
Ryan into three interceptions, the
second of which cornerback
Michael Huff grabbed after diving
in front of Julio Jones at the 2-yard
line. The ball ew 37 yards before
Huff picked it off.
On the ensuing drive, Oakland
took a 3-0 lead on Sebastian
Janikowskis 52-yard eld goal.
Atlanta running back Michael
Turner managed just 33 yards on 11
carries, and tight end Tony
Gonzalez had just two receptions
before he hooked up with Ryan
twice on the winning drive.
I think we were a little bit better
in coverage today and I think we
were able to get to the quarterback a
few times, Allen said. I think one
of those interceptions we were able
to hit him and the ball kind of ut-
tered up a little bit, so those things
work hand in hand.
But it seemed Oakland had
almost no solution to block Atlanta
defensive end John Abraham, the
four-time Pro Bowl who nished
with three sacks, two quarterback
hits and a forced fumble.
The Falcons had Abraham bring-
ing pressure from both end posi-
tions. Right tackle Willie Smith,
starting in place of the injured
Khalif Barnes, struggled all day
with the NFLs active career sacks
leader.
We had our hands full with him,
Allen said. We had some plays
where we tried to chip him, but
obviously whenever he got singled
up he was able to get some pressure
on the quarterback.
Samuels pick nearly crushed
Palmer, who had moved Oakland 62
yards to face a third-and-6 from the
Atlanta 28.
Looking to his right for Moore,
Palmer instead threw to Samuel,
who jumped the route and ran down
the left sideline to give the Falcons
a 20-13 lead with 2:40 remaining.
Making matters worse, Palmer
dove for Samuels feet near the
Raiders 20, only to watch him run
untouched into the end zone.
You have to give him credit,
Palmer said.
Palmer takes blame for Oakland loss

MINNEAPOLIS Erlana
Larkins had 16 points and 15
rebounds and the Indiana Fever
stunned defending champion
Minnesota with a 76-70 victory
over the Lynx in Game 1 of the
WNBA Finals on Sunday night.
Tamika Catchings added 20
points for the Fever, who played
without leading scorer Katie
Douglas because of a sprained left
ankle.
Seimone Augustus scored 23
points and Rebekkah Brunson
added 10 points and 10 rebounds for
the Lynx, who are looking to
become the WNBAs rst repeat
champion in 10 years.
Game 2 in the best-of-ve series
is Wednesday night in Minneapolis.
Coming off the rst title in fran-
chise history, the Lynx posted the
best record in the league this season
on their way to homecourt advan-
tage throughout the playoffs. They
entered the finals with talk of
becoming the WNBAs next
dynasty, but the Fever dont appear
to be impressed.
They scored 15 points off of 17
Minnesota turnovers and outscored
the Lynx 38-24 in the paint to
become just the second visiting
team this season to win at Target
Center.
Briann January added 11 points
and six assists and Erin Phillips
scored 13 for Indiana.
Maya Moore had 14 points and
10 boards but made just 4 of 14
shots and Lindsay Whalen managed
12 points on 4-for-12 shooting.
Now theyve lost homecourt and
trail in a series for the rst time
since their title run started last year.
Indiana led by 10 in the second
quarter and withstood a furious
opening to the second half by the
Lynx. Minnesota looked to be tak-
ing control with an 8-0 run midway
through the third that gave them a
54-50 lead and put the Fever on
their heels.
But it takes more than a few
jumpers in a row to shake this
resilient Fever.
Indiana pulled it off without
Douglas, who severely sprained her
left ankle early in Game 3 of the
Eastern Conference finals in
Connecticut and didnt make the
trip. There is some question whether
Douglas will be available at all in
this series.
Losing a leading scorer normally
would mean curtains for a title run,
but the Fever have already shown
they can overcome problems like
this. They trailed each of the rst
two series 1-0 before rallying to win
the last two games as they chase
after their rst title. The Fever even
played their best game of the post-
season after Douglas went down
with the ankle injury ve minutes
into the game against the Sun, bury-
ing Connecticut with a barrage of 3-
pointers to cruise to a 16-point vic-
tory.
They were just as strong in the
nals opener early, using superior
ball movement to nd wide open
shots on the perimeter and cutters to
the basket for easy layups. Indiana
opened up a 10-point lead in the
second quarter and some hard-
nosed play had the Lynx ustered.
Catchings leveled guard Monica
Wright with a screen and Augustus
picked up a technical foul after
Wright was called for a foul on the
play.
Larkins bullied her way around
the paint all night, out-muscling the
Lynx frontcourt for position and
keeping possessions alive grit and
hustle. Her putback with 3:20 to
play gave the Fever a 72-62 lead,
and now the Fever have the view
from the drivers seat for the rst
time this postseason as they go for
their rst title.
Attendance figures have been
down league-wide this season, a
troubling sign for a league that has
been ghting to gain traction in the
United States almost since its incep-
tion. The lower bowl was jammed at
Target Center for Game 1, with a
spirited crowd announced at 14,322
waving white pom poms.

NEW YORK Hitless at the
plate, Robinson Cano isnt getting a
break with the umpires, either.
The slumping All-Star second
baseman could only plead his case
to no avail Sunday after a missed
call by an umpire helped the Detroit
Tigers beat the New York Yankees
3-0 Sunday.
And just like that, the Tigers once
again tagged the Yankees, taking a
2-0 lead in the AL championship
series.
An MVP-caliber player for much
of the summer, Cano has been a
playoff bust.
He is hitless in a postseason
record 26 straight at-bats and 2 for
32 overall (.063). His failure to run
hard out of the batters box has
become glaring. And he let the ball
pop out of his hand in the seventh
inning, allowing Detroits rst run
to score.
Then he wound up on the wrong
side of a call by second base umpire
Jeff Nelson, who missed seeing
Cano tag Omar Infante. Instead of
the third out, the Tigers turned it
into a two-run eighth and expanded
their lead.
A week shy of his 30th birthday,
Cano is looking forward to a nine-
gure contract when he can become
a free agent after next season.
Instead of boosting his resume, hes
become a big factor in transforming
the Bronx Bombers into Bronx
Busts this month.
Cano grounded out four times
Sunday, and his 0-for broke the pre-
vious mark of 24 for a single post-
season set by Baltimores Bobby
Bonilla in 1996, according to
STATS LLC.
By the end of the game, fans were
booing him as loudly as they jeered
Alex Rodriguez.
Derek Jeters broken ankle seems
to have left most of the rest of New
Yorks batting order hurting, too,
with Raul Ibanez, Mark Teixeira
and Ichiro Suzuki the only consis-
tent threats.
The Yankees got just four hits,
and gave them a .205 average (53
for 258) in the playoffs. They were
0 for 5 with runners in scoring posi-
tion, dropping to 10 for 50.
Rodriguez took a called third
strike on a changeup in the second
and struck out on a checked swing
in the fourth, throwing his bat. Fans
mocked him with applause when he
ied out to left in the seventh, and
then he singled with two outs in the
ninth. That left him 3 for 23 with no
RBIs in the postseason, including 0
for 18 with 12 strikeouts against
right-handers.
Curtis Granderson was 0 for 3
with three strikeouts and a walk,
falling to 3 for 26 with 14 Ks. Nick
Swisher singled and is a relatively
robust 4 for 26.
Russell Martin was hitless in four
at-bats and is 5 for 26.
Hiroki Kuroda had taken a perfect
game into the sixth inning and was
on the verge of escaping trouble in
the seventh. Following Quintin
Berrys leadoff double over
Granderson in center and a single to
right by Triple Crown winner
Miguel Cabrera, Kuroda struck out
Prince Fielder and induced a
grounder to shortstop from Delmon
Young.
Jayson Nix, starting in place of
Jeter, made a good throw to second,
where Cano stepped on the bag, But
in transferring the ball for the throw
to rst, Cano allowed the ball to pop
out of his right hand as Berry
scored.
Kuroda tied his season high with
11 strikeouts, allowing ve hits and
three runs in 7 2-3 innings. But the
Yankees, looking like the old team
that they are, have scored just 20
runs in seven postseason games, a
gure more appropriate for 1968
than 2012.

has been subpar starting pitching
with Bumgarner the main culprit.
After going 2-0 with a 2.18 ERA as
a rookie in the postseason two years
ago, Bumgarner hasnt made it
through ve innings in either start
this year.
He looked in good form at the
start, needing just 11 pitches to get
through a perfect rst inning. But
nothing was easy after that.
Yadier Molina lined a single on
an 0-2 pitch with one out in the sec-
ond. David Freese then drove a 3-2
pitch over the wall in left-center to
give the Cardinals a 2-0 lead.
Bumgarner then couldnt make it
out of the fourth. Daniel Descalso
doubled and scored on Pete Kozmas
double. Jon Jay added a two-out RBI
single and Beltran ended
Bumgarners night with the homer.
That marked the rst time all year
that Bumgarner allowed two homers
in a home game and gave him an
11.25 ERA in the postseason.
Even a strong night from Tim
Lincecum and the bullpen couldnt
overcome Bumgarners rough out-
ing. Five Giants relievers combined
for 5 1-3 hitless innings with
Lincecum throwing two.
The two-time NL Cy Young
Award winner had been demoted to
the bullpen so far in the playoffs
after a rough regular season. He has
allowed just one run in 8 1-3
innings so far and could give man-
ager Bruce Bochy an option if he
doesnt want to give the struggling
Bumgarner another start.
The Giants bats woke up in the
fourth inning when RBI hits by
Brandon Belt and Brandon
Crawford and a two-run triple by
Gregor Blanco cut the decit to 6-4.
But they managed only two hits in
5 1-3 innings against the Cardinals
bullpen and nd themselves in a 1-0
series hole.
GIANTS
HOUSTON Aaron Rodgers
and the Green Bay Packers nally
put it all together.
The reigning MVP set a career
high and tied a franchise record
with six touchdown passes and the
Packers played their best game of
their so far inconsistent season,
beating previously unbeaten
Houston 42-24 on Sunday night.
Jordy Nelson caught three touch-
down passes and James Jones had
two, including a beautiful, diving
one-hander in the fourth quarter for
the Packers (3-3). Tom Crabtree had
the other, a 48-yarder that Rodgers
threw just before taking a hit from
Texans outside linebacker Brooks
Reed.
Rodgers completed 24 of 37 pass-
es for 338 yards. He tied Matt
Flynns game record for TD passes,
set in last years regular-season
nale against Detroit with Rodgers
resting on the sideline in advance of
the playoffs.
Arian Foster scored two touch-
downs, but ran for only 29 yards for
the Texans (5-1).
The loss leaves the Atlanta
Falcons (6-0) as the only unbeaten
team in the NFL.
Houston had the leagues third-
ranked defense and badly missed
star linebacker Brian Cushing, who
was placed on injured reserve after
tearing a knee ligament in last
weeks 23-17 win over the New
York Jets. Still, the Texans had no
reason not to feel condent.
Houston is off to its best start in
franchise history, while Rodgers
and the Packers had been strangely
erratic. But the Texans looked like
the team out of sorts from the start
on Sunday night.
Rookie DeVier Posey lined up
offsides on a Green Bay punt,
resulting in a Packers rst down.
Rodgers then lofted a perfect pass to
Nelson over the shoulder of corner-
back Johnathan Joseph for a 41-
yard touchdown, stunning the noisy
crowd.
Houstons offensive line also
looked shaky. The Packers sacked
Matt Schaub on each of Houstons
rst two series, forcing quick punts.
Schaub was only sacked three times
in the rst ve games.
Houston defensive end J.J. Watt
sacked Rodgers, and red up the
fans by mimicking Rodgers cham-
pionship belt pose after the play.
Watt came into the game with 7 1-2
sacks, just behind Green Bays Clay
Matthews, who led the league with
eight.
That didnt faze Rodgers, who
eluded a rush from Connor Barwin
and completed a 24-yard pass to
Randall Cobb, who had seven
catches for 102 yards. Jones made a
diving, ngertip catch in the end
zone just before the end of the rst
quarter for a 14-0 lead.

PHILADELPHIA Jason Hanson kicked
a 45-yard eld goal in overtime and the
Detroit Lions rallied from a 10-point fourth-
quarter decit to beat the Philadelphia Eagles
26-23 on Sunday.
Held in check most of the game, Matthew
Stafford led Detroit to 17 points in the fourth
quarter. He threw a TD pass and ran for a
score.
Detroit had two shots from the Eagles 1
after a pass interference penalty on Colt
Anderson with 13 seconds left in regulation.
But Stafford misred on both passes and
Hanson kicked a 19-yard eld goal to send it
to overtime.
The Lions (2-3) sacked Michael Vick on the
rst two plays of the extra quarter, forced a
punt out of the end zone and started at mid-
eld.
Stafford hit Calvin Johnson for a 17-yard
gain to the Eagles 27 on rst-and-20. A few
plays later, Hanson nailed the game-winner.
The Eagles (3-3) head into their bye week
with two straight losses.
REDSKINS 38, VIKINGS 26
LANDOVER, Md. Robert Grifn III
ran for 138 yards and two touchdowns,
including a 76-yard scamper with 2:43 to
play, and Washington snapped an eight-game
home losing streak.
One week after he left the game early with
his rst NFL concussion, Grifn also com-
pleted 17 of 22 passes for 182 yards with one
touchdown and one interception.
The Redskins (3-3) feasted on a Minnesota
team that had not allowed more than 23 points
in a game this season. Minnesotas three-
game winning streak ended. The Vikings are
4-2. Minnesota held an early 9-0 lead but paid
the price for getting eld goals instead of
touchdowns in the red zone. Christian Ponder
completed 35 of 52 passes for 352 yards.
SEAHAWKS 24, PATRIOTS 23
SEATTLE Russell Wilson found Sidney
Rice behind the secondary for a 46-yard
touchdown with 1:18 remaining, and Seattle
rallied for 14 points in the nal 7:31.
The matchup between the Patriots No. 1
ranked offense and Seattles No. 1 defense
instead turned in to a starring performance for
Wilson and a shocking rally.
Wilson hit Braylon Edwards on fourth
down for a 10-yard TD to get the Seahawks
within 23-17. After a pair of holds by Seattles
defense, Wilson found Rice open on a double
move. Steven Hauschkas extra point gave
Seattle the lead.
Tom Brady and the Patriots (3-3) were then
stopped on fourth down at their 28 when Wes
Welker came up 2 yards short, and the
Seahawks (4-2) were able to celebrate the
unlikely comeback.
BILLS 19, CARDINALS 16 OT
GLENDALE, Ariz. Jairus Byrds sec-
ond interception of the game set up Rian
Lindells 25-yard eld goal 3:50 into over-
time.
The loss ended Arizonas eight-game home
winning streak.
Byrd picked off a pass from John Skelton,
who had replaced the injured Kevin Kolb, and
returned it 29 yards to the Arizona 6 to set up
the winning kick.
Arizonas Jay Feely kicked a franchise-
record 61-yard eld goal with 1:09 left in reg-
ulation to tie it 16-16, but his 38-yard attempt
to win it as the fourth quarter ended careened
off the left upright. Feely says someone tipped
the attempt.
The Cardinals (4-2) lost their second in a
row after a 4-0 start. The Bills (3-3) won after
allowing 1,201 yards and 97 points in their
previous two games.
RAVENS 31, COWBOYS 29
BALTIMORE Jacoby Jones tied an
NFL record with a 108-yard kickoff return
and Baltimore won its 14th straight regular-
season home game
Dallas ran for 227 yards, most ever against
the Ravens, and totaled 481 yards offense. But
the Cowboys (2-3) missed a 2-point conver-
sion after closing to two points with 32 sec-
onds left.
Dallas recovered the onside kick, and Dan
Bailey was wide left on a 51-yard eld goal
try with 6 seconds left.
Ray Rice scored two touchdowns and Joe
Flacco threw for a score to help the Ravens
(5-1) secure their fourth consecutive victory
and enhance their grip on rst place in the
AFC North. Baltimores home winning streak
is the longest current run in the NFL.
BUCCANEERS 38, CHIEFS 10
TAMPA, Fla. Josh Freeman threw for
328 yards and three touchdowns and Ronde
Barber scored on a 78-yard interception
return.
Freeman teamed with Mike Williams on a
62-yard scoring play in the rst quarter and
threw TD passes of 19 and 17 yards to Vincent
Jackson in the second half as the Bucs (2-3)
stopped a three-game losing streak.
The Bucs intercepted Brady Quinn start-
ing for the Matt Cassel (concussion) twice
in the Kansas City quarterbacks rst start in
nearly three years. They also limited NFL
rushing leader Jamaal Charles to 40 yards on
12 carries.
BROWNS 34, BENGALS 24
CLEVELAND Rookie Brandon
Weeden threw two touchdown passes and
Cleveland snapped an 11-game losing streak
that dated to last season.
Cleveland had not won since Nov. 20,
matching a franchise record for consecutive
losses. But for the rst time this season every-
thing fell into place for the Browns (1-5).
Montario Hardesty, lling in for injured
rookie Trent Richardson, scored on a 1-yard
plunge and cornerback Sheldon Brown inter-
cepted Andy Dalton and returned it 19 yards

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Shonn Greene ran
for a career-high 161 yards and three touchdowns, Mark
Sanchez was efcient and Tim Tebow made a few big
plays.
Even the Jets maligned defense was able to shut
down Andrew Luck and the Colts offense as New York
snapped a two-game losing streak that had many won-
dering if the season was about to spiral out of control.
For a week, at least, Sanchez was in total control and
the Jets (3-3) had their best overall performance save
for a handful of personal foul penalties since an
opening-week rout of Buffalo.
Indianapolis (2-3) trailed 21-6 at halftime and could-
nt erase a big decit for the second straight week after
coming back from 18 points and beating Green Bay last
Sunday.

MIAMI Ryan Tannehill threw two touchdown
passes and Miami withstood a late rally.
The Rams faced a fourth-and-8 at the Miami 48-yard
line with 30 seconds left, and rather than go for a rst
down, coach Jeff Fisher sent out rookie Greg Zuerlein to
try a 66-yard eld goal, which missed wide left.
Zuerlein made two eld goals to improve to 15 for 15
this season, but then missed three times in a row, includ-
ing from 48 and 32 yards in the rst half.
The Rams outgained the Dolphins 461-209.
Both teams are 3-3. Fisher lost to the team that court-
ed him in January, when he chose the Rams job instead.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia Inbee Park rallied
to win the LPGA Malaysia on Sunday for her second
victory of the year, closing with a 4-under 67 to beat fel-
low South Korean player Na Yeon Choi by two strokes.
Park took the lead with a tap-in birdie on the par-4
13th and moved two shots ahead with another short
birdie putt on the par-4 14th. She got away with bogeys
on the nal two holes when Choi made a double bogey
on the par-3 17th in her closing 71.
Im very happy to win, Park said. I played for the
second time here, and its the rst time Ive won twice
in one year, so Im really proud of myself for that.
She won the Evian Masters in July in France and has
six straight top-three nishes and 10 top-10s in a row. In
her previous three events, she tied for second in the
Safeway Classic and nished second in the Canadian
Womens Open and Womens British Open.
I think my golf has improved, everything, hitting the
ball, chipping, putting. Everything has really
improved, said Park, also the 2008 U.S. Womens
Open champion. I worked really hard on my swing.
Ive been hitting it very solid all year. So, that gave me
a lot more birdie chances.
Two strokes behind Choi entering the round and three
behind with 10 holes left, Park picked up a stroke when
the defending champion bogeyed
the par-4 ninth, then pulled even
with birdies on the par-4 10th and
11th holes. Park holed a 20-foot putt
on 10, and a 15-footer on 11.
I think I prefer leading, because I
think its much easier the last day,
Park said. But, I mean, I had to play
good on the nal day to win. I knew
that Na Yeon was really strong on
this golf course and I knew she real-
ly liked this golf course. So I knew I had to go really
low today to win, make a lot of birdies.
Chois tee shot on the 17th ended up an unplayable lie
in a bunker.
I think I had bad luck, said Choi, the U.S. Womens
Open winner in July. My ball was unplayable. I could-
nt hit it from there. Id really like to congratulate Inbee,
my friend. I could see she was really nervous. Shes
usually not nervous at all. She was nervous today. Im
very happy my friend won this week.
Park nished at 15-under 269 at Kuala Lumpur Golf
and Country Club to match the tournament record in the
event that started in 2010. She earned $285,000 to push
her tour-leading total to $1,954,608.
Australias Karrie Webb shot a 68 to nish third at 12
under.

A
San Mateo County ordinance
denes bite as an animals tooth or
teeth breaking skin. According to
national statistics and by local accounts, the
great majority of victims are bitten by a dog
they know. But people are generally more con-
cerned and much more likely to report bites
when they dont know the dog or owner. Here,
people should exchange information much like
they would after an auto collision. Our state
health code makes this mandatory. A person
who willfully conceals information is guilty of
a misdemeanor. If someone is bitten and the
attacking dogs owner ees, the victim or vic-
tim dogs owner should attempt to get a photo
of the owner/dog with a cellphone, jot down a
license plate number, look around for witness-
es, call the police, or all of the above. When
information isnt obtained at this time, track-
ing down the responsible owner is difcult at
best. PHS/SPCA becomes involved when we
receive bite reports, faxed by hospitals and pri-
vate vet clinics after victims receive care. We
quarantine the animal (at our shelter or the
owners home, depending on circumstances)
and determine if the nature of the bite meets
the county ordinances denition of dangerous
or vicious animal. If an animal is declared
dangerous, an owner can keep their animal,
with restrictions, and must pay an annual per-
mit fee or contest the declaration. If their ani-
mal is declared vicious due to the injuries,
their pet can be euthanized. They can appeal,
but this usually requires hiring an attorney. All
hearings are presided over by county employ-
ee not a PHS/SPCA employee. To avoid
bites (and attorneys!), keep pets leashed at all
times. If your dog exhibits signs of aggression
especially unprovoked dont ignore
them. If addressed early on (through classes or
consultations), behaviors can be changed. If
unchecked, behaviors are reinforced. Lastly,
exercise caution when approaching unfamiliar
animals, even when owners say they are
friendly.

LOS ANGELES Liam
Neesons Taken 2 has defended
its box-ofce title with a narrow win
over Ben Afecks Argo.
Sunday studio estimates put 20th
Century Foxs action sequel Taken
2 at No. 1 with $22.5 million in its
second weekend. Taken 2 raised
its domestic total to $86.8 million.
Afflecks Argo, an Iranian
hostage thriller from Warner Bros.,
opened in second-place with $20.1
million.
Ethan Hawkes Sinister, about a
true-crime writer caught up in
supernatural horror, debuted at No.
3 with $18.3 million. The movie
was released by Lionsgates
Summit Entertainment banner.
Sonys Here Comes the Boom,
with Kevin James as a teacher who
becomes a mixed martial arts sensa-
tion, started weakly at No. 5 with
$12 million.
The weekends other new wide
release, CBS Films crime comedy
Seven Psychopaths, also opened
to small crowds, taking in $4.3 mil-
lion to nish at No. 9. The movies
ensemble cast includes Colin
Farrell, Sam Rockwell, Christopher
Walken and Woody Harrelson.
The follow-up to Taken, the hit
that established dramatic star
Neeson as an action hero, Taken 2
was dinged by critics who called it a
replay of the original. The sequel
has Neesons ex-CIA guy up against
a gang of Albanian goons out for
revenge for their kin that he killed in
the rst movie.
It kind of proves that reviews do
not matter, said Paul
Dergarabedian, an analyst for box-
office tracker Hollywood.com.
Audiences just continue to eat this
up. They just love Liam Neeson in
this role.
Argo may prove the opposite,
using its great reviews and
Academy Awards buzz to settle in
for a long stay at the box ofce.
Afeck directed and starred in the
real-life story about a CIA operative
who concocts a plan to rescue six
Americans hiding in Tehran after
the 1979 U.S. embassy takeover by
disguising them as members of a
fake movie crew.
Revenues on the lm ticked up a
whopping 47 percent from opening
day Friday to Saturday, a sign that
audiences were talking it up exuber-
antly to friends.
This is a really good indication
of how quickly word of mouth can
spread, said Dan Fellman, head of
distribution at Warner Bros. The
critical acclaim in this case is going
to translate into commercial suc-
cess.
Argo played almost entirely to
older crowds that do not necessarily
rush out to see movies over opening
weekend but often check out well-
reviewed films in subsequent
weeks.
Lionsgate was happy to come in
third with Sinister, especially
given most peoples projections on
the lm were in the low teens at
best, said David Spitz, head of dis-
tribution. Its always nice to come
in and over-perform everybodys
expectations.
Hollywoods business continues
to grow as it heads into the busy
holiday season. Overall domestic
revenues came in at $132 million,
up 51 percent from the same week-
end last year, when Real Steel led
with $16.3 million.

KARACHI, Pakistan Tens of
thousands rallied in Pakistans
largest city Sunday in the biggest
show of support yet for a 14-year-
old girl who was shot and seriously
wounded by the Taliban for promot-
ing girls education and criticizing
the militant group.
The Oct. 9 attack on Malala
Yousufzai as she was returning
home from school in Pakistans
northwest horried people inside
and outside the country. At the same
time, it gave hope to some that the
government would respond by
intensifying its fight against the
Taliban and their allies.
But protests against the shooting
have been relatively small until
now, usually attracting no more than
a few hundred people. That
response pales in comparison to the
tens of thousands of people who
held violent protests in Pakistan last
month against a lm produced in
the United States that denigrated
Islams Prophet Muhammad.
Demonstrations in support of
Malala and against rampant mil-
itant violence in the country in gen-
eral have also been fairly small
compared with those focused on
issues such as U.S. drone attacks
and the NATO supply route to
Afghanistan that runs through
Pakistan.
Right-wing Islamic parties and
organizations in Pakistan that regu-
larly pull thousands of supporters
into the streets to protest against the
U.S. have less of an incentive to
speak out against the Taliban. The
two share a desire to impose Islamic
law in the country even if they
may disagree over the Talibans vio-
lent tactics.
Pakistans mainstream political
parties are also often more willing
to harangue the U.S. than direct
their people power against Islamist
militants shedding blood across the
country partly out of fear and
partly because they rely on Islamist
parties for electoral support.
One of the exceptions is the polit-
ical party that organized Sundays
rally in the southern port city of
Karachi, the Muttahida Quami
Movement.
The partys chief, Altaf Hussain,
criticized both Islamic and other
mainstream political parties for fail-
ing to organize rallies to protest the
attack on Malala.

BEIRUT The Syrian regime was
accused Sunday of dropping cluster
bombs indiscriminate scattershot
munitions banned by most nations in
a new sign of desperation and disregard
for its own people.
The international group Human Rights
Watch cited amateur video and testimo-
ny from the front lines in making the
allegation against the government of
President Bashar Assad.
Syria and Turkey, meanwhile,
declared their skies off-limits to each
other amid mounting cross-border ten-
sions in Syrias 19-month-old conict,
now a civil war. Turkey is an outspoken
backer of rebels trying to oust Assad.
The weekends mutual ban on over-
ights is part of Turkeys increasingly
assertive stance toward Syria that has
stirred concerns about a regional cona-
gration. In the past two weeks, Turkey
has retaliated for stray Syrian shells and
mortar rounds, intercepted a Syrian pas-
senger plane on sus-
picion it carried mili-
tary equipment, and
according to a
Turkish newspaper
Sunday sent more
warships to naval
bases north of the
Syrian coastline.
Inside Syria, rebel
ghters and regime
forces have been locked in a bloody
stalemate for weeks, with rebels holding
large rural stretches in the heavily popu-
lated western area, but unable to dis-
lodge Assads troops from urban centers.
During the summer, the regime escalated
shelling and airstrikes on rebel-held
neighborhoods.
Human Rights Watch said new ama-
teur videos and interviews with residents
suggests the Syrian air force has dropped
cluster bombs in the past week, mainly
along a main north-south highway in
western Syria that runs through Maaret
al-Numan, a town captured by rebels
after erce ghting.
Cluster bombs open in ight, scatter-
ing smaller bomblets over a wide area.
Many of the bomblets dont explode
immediately, posing a threat to civilians
long afterward.
Steve Goose, an arms expert for the
New York-based human rights group,
said most nations have already banned
cluster bombs and that many of those
who havent, including the United
States, said they would do so soon.
These are weapons that are really
beyond the pale, Goose said in a phone
interview. This is a weapon of despera-
tion (for Syria) at this point in time.
Only those governments and political
leaders who are willing to thumb their
nose at international opinion will use
these weapons.
The Syrian government had no imme-
diate comment.
First word of cluster bombs being
dropped by the regime emerged in July,
but the recent reports indicated a more
widespread use, said Nadim Houry, a
Lebanon-based researcher for Human
Rights Watch.

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba A U.S. mil-
itary judge is considering broad security rules for the war
crimes tribunal of ve Guantanamo prisoners charged in the
Sept. 11 attacks, including measures to prevent the accused
from publicly revealing what happened to them in the CIAs
secret network of overseas prisons.
Prosecutors have asked the judge at a pretrial hearing starting
Monday to approve what is known as a protective order that is
intended to prevent the release of classied information during
the eventual trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who has por-
trayed himself as the mastermind of the terror attacks, and four
co-defendants.
Lawyers for the defendants say the rules, as proposed, will
hobble their defense. The American Civil Liberties Union,
which has led a challenge to the protective order, says the
restrictions will prevent the public from learning what hap-
pened to Mohammed and his co-defendants during several
years of CIA connement and interrogation.

In Maryland, as in Maine and Washington,
the most recent polls show a lead for the sup-
porters of same-sex marriage. But compara-
ble leads in other states notably in
California in 2008 evaporated by Election
Day, and Josh Levin, manager of the
Marylanders for Marriage Equality cam-
paign, expects the final result to be extreme-
ly close.
Levin and his allies are aware that
Maryland, because its polls close earlier than
Maines or Washingtons, could become the
first state to approve same-sex marriage by
popular vote.
We cannot take it for granted, Levin
said. That being said, if we make it happen
in Maryland, the lessons learned here can be
applied across the country.
The campaign has been intensifying in
recent weeks, widening rifts among
Marylands most prominent Catholics,
among black clergy, even among NFL team-
mates. Baltimore Ravens linebacker
Brendon Ayanbadejo has endorsed same-sex
marriage; center Matt Birk wrote a newspa-
per column opposing it.
The divide among Catholics the states
largest denomination has been striking.
Archbishop William Lori and the Maryland
Catholic Conference are actively campaign-
ing against same-sex marriage. Catholic
VIPs supporting it include Gov. Martin
OMalley and former Lt. Gov. Kathleen
Kennedy Townsend, daughter of the late
Robert F. Kennedy.
In both Maryland and Washington state,
voters are being asked to approve or reject a
same-sex marriage bill passed by the legisla-
ture earlier this year. In each case, opponents
were able to collect enough signatures to
challenge the laws.
OMalley, who played a key role in win-
ning legislative support, says the law has
strong provisions to protect the religious
freedoms of the Catholic Church and other
faiths that disapprove of same-sex marriage.
Were a people of many different faiths,
and its so important that we protect rights
equally under the law, he said.
Among several openly gay legislators who
helped advance the bill was Delegate
Heather Mizeur, who married her lesbian
partner during a brief window when same-
sex marriage was legal in California in 2008.
Mizeur says shes a dedicated Catholic,
despite her opposition to church teaching on
marriage.
The No. 1 tenet of our faith is the prima-
cy of our conscience, Mizeur said. That
was important to me as a young person, sit-
ting there trying to pray the gay away.
Another churchgoing Catholic active in
the gay-marriage campaign is 83-year-old
Erma Durkin of Glen Arm, whose gay son
married his longtime partner in New York
last year. Durkin said shes made clear to her
pastor that she objects to materials inserted
in the church bulletin conveying the Catholic
hierarchys opposition to same-sex marriage.
You cant command that someone stay
celibate and single all their life, Durkin
said. If we find someone we love that much
that we want to marry, thats a wonderful
thing.
On the other side, Archbishop Lori recent-
ly hosted a meeting of same-sex marriage
opponents to mobilize for the campaigns
home stretch.
The union of man and woman is not only
a good for the couple, but for the entire com-
munity of believers and for humanity, Lori
told the gathering.
Within the opponents coalition, the
Maryland Marriage Alliance, black pastors
are playing a key role. One of them, the Rev.
Derek McCoy, is the campaign chairman; he
is keenly aware of the high stakes.
Eyes are on us from around the country,
he said. We have a gargantuan task ahead of
us.
Blacks comprise about 25 percent of
Marylands electorate, and polls showed a
significant increase in their support of same-
sex marriage after it was endorsed in May by
Obama and the Baltimore-based National
Association for the Advancement of Colored
People.
POLL
Shearer, candidate filing officer
with the San Mateo County
Elections Ofce.
Those registrations are part of the
approximately 380,000 Californians
who used the new online system dur-
ing its rst three weeks of operation.
Participants with a signature already
on le with the Department of Motor
Vehicles can sign up via the Internet
or a mobile device. Local elections
ofces verify the forms before being
added to the voter rolls.
Breakdowns of the local online
registrants were not immediately
available from the Elections Ofce
but statewide the early numbers
show an uptick in numbers from
younger residents and Californians
who are overseas, according to the
ofce of state Sen. Leland Yee, D-
San Francisco/San Mateo, who
authored the law that allowed for
online registration.
Political Data Inc., the states
largest provider of voter informa-
tion, released data showing that of
the 31 counties reporting, 28 per-
cent of those registering online are
under age 26 compared to 12 per-
cent overall and those overseas and
out-of-state account for 2 percent of
online registrations.
I am thrilled to see so many
Californians, especially young peo-
ple, using this new system to regis-
ter to vote, Yee said in a prepared
statement.
Aside from online registration,
the election has been pretty quiet,
said David Tom, deputy assessor-
county clerk-recorder.
The Elections Ofce is receiving
fewer calls than in presidential elec-
tions past, he said.
Sample ballots are currently
being mailed and voter registration
for the Nov. 6 election ends Oct. 22.
Online registration is available at
RegisterToVote.ca.gov. Mail-in
forms are available at public
libraries, city and county ofces,
California Department of Motor
Vehicles ofces, U.S. Post Ofces,
online for download or by calling
312-5222 to have one mailed within
one business day.
COUNTY
About one-third were not afliated
with either major party.
If the trend holds, it could further
erode Republicans share of the
California electorate, which has
dipped to 30 percent of registered
voters.
Young voters made up 28 percent
of those registering online in the
early review done by Political Data.
That was seven times as many as
those over age 65.
The numbers make sense, said
Kim Alexander, president of the
nonpartisan California Voter
Foundation. Online registration
tends to attract younger, more
mobile voters, she said, and they are
more likely to register as Democrats
or independents.
One of those is 22-year-old Amy
Howard of San Francisco, a senior
sociology major at the University of
California, Davis who registered
online as a Democrat this week.
Online is just easier to do. Its
just so accessible, I didnt have to
go out of my way and spend time
mailing it, she said. It appeals to
younger people because theyve
been around computers probably
since they were born or were really
young.
Jane Richardson, a 22-year-old
senior design major at UC Davis, is
a registered Democrat from
Piedmont who changed her address
online.
She said many of her politically
active friends have been deterred
from voting by just some little
problem with registering. Online,
its easy to change that.
Online registration requires appli-
cants to include their date of birth
and the last four digits of their
Social Security numbers, which are
checked against their drivers
license or the state identication
card kept by the California
Department of Motor Vehicles.
An electronic image of the appli-
cants DMV signature is added to
the application if the information
matches. Yet registering online is
not the end of the process: Under
the law, county elections ofcials
still must verify the information
submitted before formally register-
ing the applicant to vote.
Republican lawmakers opposed
the bill that created online registra-
tion on the grounds that it could lead
to voter fraud and additional costs,
yet they also might have been think-
ing of their partys future.
Statewide, Republicans make up
30 percent of Californias 17.3 mil-
lion voters to Democrats 43 per-
cent. More than one in ve voters is
registered as an independent.
The early registration trend under
the new law suggests rough times
ahead for the California Republican
Party. Information gathered by
Political Data from 31 of
Californias 58 counties showed
Democrats accounting for 49 per-
cent of online registrations, com-
pared to 19 percent for Republicans.
Theyre on their way to slipping
below 30 percent, Tenoch Flores, a
spokesman for the California
Democratic Party, said of the GOP.
Theres a whole new generation of
voters that are taking a look at the
Republican Party in California, and
theyre turning away from it.
California Republican Party
spokesman Mark Standriff said he is
not surprised by the early results.
But the GOP is using a broader
approach to registering voters as it
looks to rebuild for 2014, he said.
While Republicans tell prospec-
tive voters they can register online,
were not using that as a focus of
our registration efforts right now,
he said. Its just another tool that
we want to be able to use.
Supporters said they hoped online
registration would boost participa-
tion by appealing to the more than 6
million Californians who are quali-
ed but have not registered to vote.
A Public Policy Institute of
California analysis released this
week found that many voters are
disaffected and often skip elections
even if they are registered.
Compared to the population in gen-
eral, the institute found that regis-
tered voters are likely to be more
educated, more nancially secure,
older and white.
Those demographics could
change with online registrations.
Thats a pretty good assumption
that younger, tech-savvy people are
going to use it. I could probably do
it on my smartphone, said Santa
Barbara County Registrar Joseph
Holland.
About a third of voter registra-
tions in that county are coming in
online.
Los Angeles County Registrar
Dean Logan attributed a record-
setting pace in voter registrations
to what he said is a fast and conven-
ient way to sign up. About 150,000
people registered there last month,
compared to 120,000 who regis-
tered in September 2008, before the
last presidential election.

SAN FRANCISCO A man was
seriously wounded after being
stabbed near Candlestick Park as he
was going to watch the San
Francisco 49ers home game.
Police Sgt. Michael Andraychak
said two men suspected of attacking
the 27-year-old Elk Grove man
Sunday were arrested a short dis-
tance away.
Andraychak said the victim was
with ve friends when the suspects
approached them on the southwest
side of the stadium.
He said they got into an argument
and one of the suspects pulled out a
knife and stabbed the victim in the
torso.
He was rushed to the hospital, and
Andraychak said he was expected to
survive.
Andraychak said the victim and
his attackers were all 49ers fans.
Police identied the suspects as a
30-year old San Francisco man and
a 22-year-old Daly City man.

sions are now completely off the table.
Were not going to continue to talk to
folks when theres a lawsuit led. Were
were operating in good faith and thats
too bad. Thats what compromise and
negotiation is all about, Reed said.
Redwood City Community
Development Director Bill Ekern did not
return an inquiry about the citys reac-
tion to the suit.
The current suit mirrors many of the
same issues as the earlier one but, while
the rst took issue with the lack of an
environmental impact report, the second
argues the document needs revisiting.
Its very similar in that the project
didnt change very much, Brandt-
Hawley said.
The project in question calls for
demolishing six existing homes at 50, 80
and 88 Finger Ave. and replacing them
with nine houses and a U-shaped private
road on the 1.69-acre site. The City
Council in September unanimously cer-
tied the EIR for the plan after following
the staff recommendation to move the
houses on three parcels away from the
street and the top of the creek bank and
revise garage setbacks.
But the suit argues the city used an
inadequate EIR that lacked reasonable
alternatives, adequate analysis of aes-
thetics and stormwater impacts, ade-
quate responses to comments on the nal
EIR and substantial evidence to reach its
conclusions.
The suit harkens back to November
2009 when the same two groups sued the
city over the initial EIR and the city set-
tled by sending the plan back to the
drawing board with direction to speci-
cally look at aesthetics, cultural
resources, traffic safety, parking and
overall neighborhood compatibility. The
new plan brought forward this last July
called for a 25-foot creek setback to
meet the citys adopted storm water con-
trol ordinance and ease concerns raised
in the lawsuit about runoff and erosion.
The blueprint also called for no size
increases in four of the lots, no decrease
in front yard setbacks for those lots
garages and no tree removals other than
the 10 already proposed.
Before voting, the City Council asked
the developer and neighborhood groups
to try working out their differences a
request that led McGowan to suggest that
the stipulated judgment was already the
solution. Regardless, the two sides did
meet formally twice, once for seven hours
and another for two and a half hours.
McGowan is extremely disappoint-
ed the project has dragged out for six
years and has now come to a lawsuit,
Reed said.
Reed said the opponents are abusing
CEQA, referring to the California
Environmental Quality Act that governs
development.
Since rst being proposed in 2006, the
project has undergone several other
changes like reducing off-street parking
spaces from seven to ve, reducing ve
of the homes sizes by 895 square feet,
limiting trees removed from 13 to 10 and
establishing storm runoff draining into a
new system on Finger Avenue rather
than into Cordilleras Creek.

FINGER
signed by Gov. Jerry Brown, also
requires the disclosure of top donors on
all advertisements by independent
expenditure committees, making the
independent expenditure committee
principal ofcers liable for ethics viola-
tions and requiring a written ling with
the Fair Political Practices Commission
by the committee that they did not coor-
dinate with other campaigns or launder
funds.
The bill was sponsored by FPPC Chair
Ann Ravel.
With independent expenditures, it
can be especially difcult for voters to
track the true source of spending on a
candidate or ballot measure, because fre-
quently contributions are made to other
independent expenditure committees,
obscuring the identities of the original
donors. Disclosure is the best tool avail-
able to make the voting public aware of
these practices, Ravel wrote in a state-
ment.
An independent expenditure is made
by an individual or group that is not afl-
iated with the candidate or ballot meas-
ure. While independent expenditures are
on the rise in the California political
arena at both state and local levels, cur-
rent law has not always kept up with
their expansion, according to Gordons
ofce.
In 2010, the FPPC estimated $127
million had been spent by special inter-
ests on independent expenditures since
2000. The 2010 Supreme Court decision
in Citizens United v. FEC and the subse-
quent rise of Super Political Action
Committees has only increased funding
and donations toward independent
expenditures throughout the state,
according to Gordons ofce.
Gordon said it is important for voters
to know who is paying for political mes-
saging and in what amounts.
There have been instances when an
independent expenditure committee has
violated the law, only to disband and
avoid liability for such violations,
according to Gordons ofce. AB 481
would establish principal ofcer liability
to provide the FPPC with necessary
tools to hold committees accountable.
AB 481 passed the Senate on a 37-0
and the Assembly on a 64-11, receiving
the required two-thirds vote required of
bills that amend the Political Reform
Act.
Today, Gordon and Ravel will hold a
joint news conference to detail the mer-
its of the bill. The event is 10 a.m.,
Monday, Oct. 15, Alquist State Building,
main courtyard, 100 Paseo de San
Antonio, San Jose.

leases the past 12 years have also been
month-to month because of the sale
potential. Uccelli has said she plans to
reside at Peters Harbor if the residential
development happens.
The project, to be located on the north
side of Highway 101 between Bair
Island Road and Redwood Creek, calls
for 411 multi-family housing units under
shingled roofs and associated parking, a
clubhouse, a community pool and
approximately 263 slips in a private
marina. All existing commercial opera-
tions at the marina will cease and any
future boat mooring limited to apartment
tenants. The buildings would range from
three to ve stories and constructed all at
once dependent upon market conditions
although the total time frame is estimat-
ed at 30 months.
The project also calls for open space
and park amenities. The Bay
Conservation and Development
Commission has jurisdiction over a 100-
foot swatch of shorelines that includes
the western and northern edges of the
project and, according to the city staff
report, the developer is working with the
agency to make sure the project falls in
line with its policies.
The developer is also building One
Marina, a 231-unit community formerly
known as Peninsula Park. Both it and
Petes Harbor were part of the 2004
Marina Shores Village project approve
by the city but overturned through a
voter referendum. Although the vote
reverted both parcels back to previous
zoning designations it did not affect the
early certication of the environmental
impact report.
The Redwood City Planning
Commission meets 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct.
16 at City Hall, 1017 Middleeld Road,
Redwood City.

By Anthony McCartney
LOS ANGELES Britney Spears darkest
days are about to be revisited in a Los Angeles
courtroom, but not by the resurgent pop
singer.
Instead jurors will begin hearing testimony
next week on claims by Spears former man-
ager that he was vilied and unfairly blamed
for the singers public meltdown more than
four years ago. Spears parents are defendants
and will likely testify, but the panel wont hear
directly from the Grammy winner.
Former Spears confidante Sam Lutfi is
seeking millions of dollars from Spears and
her family, claiming her mothers book lied
about him drugging and isolating the pop
superstar. He is also seeking a portion of the
singers prots, claiming he was a key player
in her 2007 album Blackout and had the
right to serve as her manager for years.
Instead, the singer spent much of that time
recovering under a court-ordered conservator-
ship, with her father and ance continuing to
exert control over her personal life. It is high-
ly unlikely the star will be a witness during
the trial, although a judge has said she will
consider a request by Luts attorney to call
Spears as a witness mid-trial if necessary.
A probate judge overseeing Spears conser-
vatorship has ruled that the singers caretakers
should not allow her to testify under any cir-
cumstances. Luts attorney has cited the
singers record tour and her current role as a
judge on Foxs The X Factor as reasons for
why the singer should testify, but he may have
to settle for the testimony of Spears divorced
parents, father Jamie Spears and mother
Lynne Spears.
Jury selection began Friday and will contin-
ue on Tuesday, with opening statements
expected later in the week.
The case is the culmination of years of acri-
mony between Lut and Spears family and
conservators, who successfully obtained a
restraining order against him to keep him
from contacting the singer or trying to inter-
vene in her life. The order has expired, but
conservatorship attorneys are seeking repay-
ment for more than $93,000 in legal fees a
judgment Lut is appealing.
Lut sued in February 2009, roughly a year
after Spears was hospitalized and placed
under the conservatorship to take control of her
health and nances. The move by Jamie Spears
came after months of erratic behavior by his
daughter, including shaving her head, speaking
in a British accent and other bizarre incidents
that also led to her losing custody of her two
sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Lutfi was a constant presence around
Spears during the tumultuous period. In his
court case he maintains that he was trying to
help her, though her parents paint a more sin-
ister picture. They say Lut drugged and iso-
lated their daughter cutting her phone line
and hiding her cellphones and used the
paparazzi as henchmen.
Many of the claims were included in court
lings used to obtain the conservatorship, but
Lynne Spears included them in her 2008 book
Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame
and Family in a Tabloid World. Lut is suing
for libel and defamation based on three chap-
ters in the book that describe him as a gener-
al to the paparazzi and portray him as a man
trying to manipulate not only the singer, but
her mother.
Lut claims he was trying to aid Spears
career and help her regain custody of her chil-
dren. The books allegations have caused him
to be subjected to unfathomable amounts of
ridicule and public scorn, his lawsuit states.
Luts attorney, Joseph Schleimer, and attor-
neys for the Spears family declined comment
on the trial, which may last nearly three weeks.
Lynne Spears attorney, Stephen Rohde, has
noted in pretrial hearings that the burden is on
Lut to prove that the statements in the book
are untrue and that
his client knew
they were false.
A judge has
also limited the
case against
Jamie Spears,
who Lutfi
accuses of
hitting him
in the chest
at the
si nger s
house
s h o r t l y
before the
conserva-
t orshi ps
establish-
ment. Lut
is no longer
entitled to
recoup dam-
ages for
emotional dis-
tress if a jury
nds that a
b a t t e r y
occurred.

A Health Center
Dedicated to
Severe Disc
Conditions
Youve seen the ads and heard the
radio commercials about my Non-
Surgical Spinal Decompression
treatment. At Crossroads Health
Center, Ive created an entire facility
dedicated to patients with severe disc
conditions that have not responded
to traditional care. My revolutionary,
Crossroads Method, provides a very
high success rate to patients with
serious back, neck, leg and arm pain
even when all else has failed. This
FDA cleared; non-surgical treatment
allows us to rehabilitate your
herniated or degenerative disc(s)
by reversing internal pressure and
enabling your disc(s) to heal from the
inside out. We succeed where other
treatments have failed by removing
the pressure that is causing pain to
your disc(s) and nerves without
drugs, injections, invasive surgery or
harmful side effects.
The only ofce to have
The Crossroads Method
This method which includes
computerized true disc
decompression is considered by
many doctors to be the most
advanced and successful non-
invasive treatment of serious back,
neck, leg or arm pain.
This procedure allows for a much
higher success rate by increasing
hydration of your discs, fexibility,
relaxation of muscles and ligaments
along with improving muscle and
core strength, balance and posture.
This results in a more effective and
lasting solution to your pain. There
are no side effects and no recovery
time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment
has proven to be effective even
when drugs, epidurals, traditional
chiropractic, physical therapy
and surgery have failed The
Crossroads Method has shown
dramatic results.
Patient Testimonials
During the 1 1/2 years of having
constant daily lower back pain and
spasms, I took anti-infammatory
and pain medication, but nothing
helped lessen the pain. When
an MRI showed that I had two
degenerative discs, I went through a
series of lumbar epidural injections
without success. The only thing
that made the pain and spasms go
away was Spinal Decompression
treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am
still pain-free!
Lisa K.
My severe low back and sciatica
pain have been reduced signifcantly
since receiving spinal decompression
therapy at Crossroads Health Center.
I am now able to walk, golf, and do
things that I havent been able to do in
years! I would also like to say thanks
to Dr. Ferrigno and the offce staff as
they went above and beyond to make
sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldnt be happier!!

How Will I Know If I Qualify
for Treatment?

complimentary consultation we will
ask a series of questions and perform
a comprehensive examination to
determine exactly where the pain is
coming from. If x-rays are necessary,
we can take them in our offce. Once
we determine the cause of your
pain we will let you know if we can
help you and if you qualify for our
treatment protocol.
If we dont feel like we can help we
will refer you to someone who can.
