OBAMA CALLS FOR IMMIGRATION COOPERATION BY END OF

In addition to staff training, a
review, timeline and report, a
third-party investigator will be
hired because of the timing of a
money transfer for a $1.3 million
home loan given to the San Carlos
Elementary School District super-
intendent.
The board
voted 4-0 last
night to give
direction to its
counsel to hire
an independent
attorney to
retain a
process-orient-
ed audit of the bridge loan transac-
tion. The transfer of funds for
Superintendent Craig Bakers loan
occurred one day prior to the board
taking formal action to approve
i t .
The escrow on the San Carlos
home Baker purchased was sched-
uled to close Sept. 13, but went
through on Sept. 11, a mistake,
Baker said.
Amore in-depth audit may from
a third party could restore the dis-
tricts trust with the community,
said Trustee Kathleen Farley.
The public is asking for this,
Farley said. I have mixed feel-
ings. I dont want to prolong
things though, I just want to get it
done just to put the issue to bed
and leave no questions. Other
trustees were in agreement with
Farley, including Trustee Carol
Elliott.
A lot of people out there dont
have as much information as I do,
so I would support this, Elliott
said. Im a little bit in the rip-
Investigator to look into superintendent loan

Development plans for
Centennial Village, which would
transform South San Franciscos
1965-era shopping center at El
Camino Real and South Spruce
Avenue into a new mixed-use
shopping, housing and office
development was rejected by the
City Council Wednesday night.
The South San Francisco City
Council voted unanimously
against the initial study and miti-
gated negative declaration, along
with the planning project citing
lack of prevailing wages for its
construction and lack of guaran-
teed housing, which the council
had recommended be added to the
plan at its Sept. 25 meeting. The
City Council will vote in the future
on the status of a total buildout of
the project, but since the develop-
ers has gotten past the hurdles of
the Environmental Impact Report,
the project could move forward as a

The Foster City-based biophar-

step closer to expanding its cam-
pus after the City Council
approved an environmental review
this week.
This is a win-win for Gilead and
Foster City and I wish them all the
best. They have been very proac-
tive in supporting our sustainabil-
ity efforts and I expect that to con-
tinue Councilman Charles
Bronitsky said.
Gilead is seeking to increase the
area covered by the Gilead
Sciences Corporate Master Plan to
about 72.59 acres to allow for
5,000 potential new employees.

Placing second on Project
Runway, San Mateos Alexandria
von Bromssens phone has been
ringing off the hook since the sea-
son nale of the fashion designer
competition last Thursday.
The experience was crazy and
intense for von Bromssen, who
participated in 13 challenges and
said she averaged four hours of
sleep per night during the six
weeks of lming of the Lifetime
network television show. Overall,
the show brought her out of her
comfort zone though and has
helped her designs stand out on a
national scale.
I have 200 orders in my pocket
off of things people saw on the
show, said von Bromssen, 38. I
cried a lot when I saw the show and
stopped watching it early on. Now
its very different since the phones
are now ringing.
The crying was caused by what
she describes as television por-
traying her in the wrong way, as a
very cold and standofsh charac-
ter. She competed against 16 other
contestants.
I wore platforms and was really
quiet and America hated me, said
von Bromssen, who runs a fashion
collective on Palm Avenue and
sewing lessons for children under
the name Camp Couture.
The environment of the show
was her biggest challenge. She
got shingles because her immune
system was weakened by the lack
of sunlight and long hours. Von
Bromssen describes the show as
almost like being at war.
You have to go make things
under [tough] conditions, von
Bromssen said. Its like the run-
way games. I was tougher. When
youre 6 feet 5 inches [with heels
on] no one will f with you. I

Indictments end gang probe
Raids throughout the Bay Area and
in Nevada by immigration authori-
ties the week of Oct. 25, 2008 were
the culmination of a three-year effort
to combat the MS-13 street gang,
resulting in the criminal indictments
of 29 people, federal prosecutors in
San Francisco announced that week.
Arrests were made in San
Francisco, Richmond,
Oakland, Alameda,
South San Francisco,
San Bruno and Reno,
Nev., according to U.S.
Immigration and Customs
Enforcement.
The indictment of the 29 suspected
members or associates of the gang
was unsealed yesterday by U.S.
Attorney Joseph Russoniello, who
discussed Operation Devil Horns
a reference to the MS-13 gang
sign at a news conference in San
Francisco.
MS-13, also known as Mara
Salvatrucha, originated in El
Salvador and Southern California,
and has members throughout the
Bay Area in the thousands, accord-
ing to Russionello. He called the
group one of the most vicious,
dangerous organized crime gangs
in the country, and said its members
engaged in indiscriminate vio-
lence against innocent victims as
well as other gangs and its own
members.
Property owner
sues city for taxes
The property company
that bought the Hillsdale
Garden Apartments two
years ago was suing both
the city and the county of
San Mateo for nearly
$600,000 in tax refunds, it was
reported the week of Oct. 25, 2008.
Essex bought the Hillsdale Garden
Apartments in 2007 and, in the com-
plicated land deal, the company
claimed it was charged twice for
property transfer tax. It asked for and
was refused a $486,250 refund from
the city and was seeking a $111, 000
refund from the county, according to
the lawsuit.
County home sales slide
As home sales jumped across the
state, San Mateo County found itself
in the unique situation of having
both slumping home sales and drop-
ping home prices, according to a
report issued the week of Oct. 25,
2008 by a real estate tracking firm.
Home sales in California jumped
65 percent in September 2008 from a
year prior, as homebuyers seized
sharply discounted foreclosed homes
and other properties, according to
the MDA DataQuick report. In San
Mateo County, the number of avail-
able homes dropped by 4.9 percent
and the median price fell 20.7 per-
cent to $603,000.
County Health Department
testing mass vaccination
The county Health Department were
using employees and residents the
week of Oct. 25, 2008 to help them
train for a disaster in which thou-
sands of people will need medication
or vaccines, such as a bioterrorist
attack or a flu pandemic.
The federal government has sug-
gested a goal of vaccinating one per-
son every one or two minutes, said
Dr. Karen Relucio, assistant health
officer.

nally printed five years ago this week. It

The San Mateo County District Attorneys
Ofce accepted more than $680,000 from
the state yesterday to combat workers com-
pensation fraud, the largest of four grants it
has received to proactively investigate and
prosecute the growing crime.
The California Department of Insurance
awarded $32 million in grants to 36 coun-
ties, including $680,286 to San Mateo
County prosecutors. The grant is awarded
annually to the county but the number
changes.
The grants are funded through assess-
ments on California employers and the
amounts doled out are based on criteria such
as the previous years performance, applica-
tions, arrests and convictions.
Its a fairly sizable grant for this coun-
t y, said Chief Deputy District Attorney
Karen Guidotti.
The money will pay the salaries of one
inspector and one prosecutor who focus on
people trying to defraud the compensation
program with false or exaggerated injuries.
In fiscal year 2012-13, Insurance
Commissioner Dave Jones ofce received
more than 5,000 referrals for suspected
workers compensation fraud with losses
more than $340 million, according to
Jones.
The impact of fraud is felt across
California businesses and is a drain on our
economy, Jones said in an announcement
of the grant.
The local ofce also received a $355,000
disability and health care grant from the
insurance department. The grant is brand
new and highlights an increased interest in
fraud like staged accidents, faked illnesses
and other types of chiropractic and medical
fraud, Guidotti said.
The remaining two grants are $294,000
for auto insurance fraud and $47, 000 for life
and annuity fraud.
Guidotti said the money lets the ofce
track down and prosecute crimes rather than
being reactive.
They allow you to be more proactive,
she said. These crimes are happening but if
you dont have the resources to root them
out they go undetected and we are only pros-
ecuting them when they fall in our lap.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
APacica man indicted for allegedly fatal-
ly beating and stabbing an acquaintance
more than 50 times at his fathers home
before trying to clean up the bloody scene
wont learn until mid-December if hes men-
tally t to stand trial for murder.
The evaluation of Marc Anthony Furlan,
25, was due back yesterday but one of two
court-appointed doctors needed to be
replaced.
The decision now due Dec. 12 will deter-
mine if Furlan will face hospitalization in a
state mental facility or trial on allegations
he used a deadly or dangerous weapon to
murder Keith Coffey, 24, on Oct. 17, 2012.
Competency is a persons ability to aid in
his or her own defense unlike sanity which
is a persons mental state
at the time of an alleged
crime.
Furlan and Coffey were
acquaintances and report-
edly argued before
Coffeys death.
Prosecutors say Furlan
killed Coffey in the Dell
Road house and dragged
the body outside before
trying to clean the scene. Two tenants ed
the scene and contacted police who found
Coffey in front of the home around 5:15
a.m.
Furlan was reportedly trying to dispose of
the body when police arrived and had left a
wide swath of blood from the house to out-
side. His father was not home at the time of
the incident.
A motive in the murder has not been
released.
In March, the criminal grand jury indicted
Furlan for murder which negated the need for
a preliminary hearing on the evidence.
Months later in August, Furlans defense
attorney raised the question of his clients
competency.
Coffeys death was the first murder in
Pacica since 2000.
Furlan remains in custody without bail.
Murder defendant may be unfit for trial

California issues largest campaign-reporting fine
SACRAMENTO In a case seeking to unmask the murky
multimillion-dollar trail of money pouring into state and
national political campaigns, Californias political watch-
dog agency on Thursday announced the largest ne in its
history for campaign-reporting violations and ordered two
political action committees to pay the state $15 million for
failing to properly report the source of funds spent in the
2012 election.
Teams of attorneys and researchers from two state agen-
cies spent a year tracing the money used to oppose one
California ballot initiative and support another, illustrating
how difcult it has become to track the ow of money in
state and national political campaigns. The groups that
helped funnel the money were in numerous states, including
Arizona, Iowa and Virginia.
The California Fair Political Practices Commission called
the two groups that will pay the $1 million ne part of the
Koch Brothers Network of dark money political nonprot
corporations. The reference is to billionaire brothers
Charles and David H. Koch, who have given millions to
conservative causes across the country.
Donors were given the choice of directly contributing to
the ballot measure campaigns or giving money to an
Arizona-based nonprofit that would not disclose their
names, allowing them to avoid retribution from unions,
according to documents released as part of the investiga-
tion.
Almost $29 million was given by donors who chose not
to stand up for their political views but instead wanted to
inuence elections but hide from public view, said Ann
Ravel, chairwoman of the FPPC.
Gun groups consider recalls of state lawmakers
SACRAMENTO Gun owners groups said Thursday they
are considering recall campaigns against ve Democratic
lawmakers in California, including Assembly Speaker John
Perez, for supporting a variety of rearms bills this year.
The effort could be patterned on recall elections in
September that unseated two Colorado legislators, includ-
ing the state Senate president.
The successful Colorado recalls suggest that lawmakers
also are vulnerable in California, Jennifer Kerns, who
recently founded the group Free California, said at a Capitol
news conference.
Some of the lawmakers are newly elected to their seats and
have the support of independents who are more likely to
oppose gun restrictions, she said.
Kerns is a Republican political strategist who helped with
the Colorado effort. She also is the spokeswoman for the
gubernatorial campaign of Republican Assemblyman Tim
Donnelly of Twin Peaks, who was the only lawmaker to
attend the news conference.
Autopsy: Boy with pellet gun shot seven times
SANTAROSA An autopsy report shows the 13-year-old
boy who was killed by a Northern California sheriffs
deputy while holding a pellet gun was shot seven times.
The preliminary report from the Sonoma County coro-
ners ofce says the two fatal wounds hit Andy Lopez in his
right hip and the right side of his chest.
Investigators believe the deputies who encountered the
boy Tuesday afternoon red eight rounds. The timeline
released by Santa Rosa police says those shots were red
within 10 seconds of the deputies rst report of a suspi-
cious person.
The deputies say the teen was carrying what looked like an
assault rie and had his back toward them at rst. They
ordered him to drop the weapon, but instead he turned toward
them.
Around the state

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama made a plea for Republican
cooperation on immigration Thursday,
seeking common ground by years end
in the aftermath of the divisive partial
government shutdown. Yet prospects
for success this year remain a long shot
even as a handful of House GOP law-
makers push for more limited measures.
Obamas renewed focus on immigra-
tion comes amid mounting criticism of
the White House over computer prob-
lems that have plagued insurance
enrollment under the 3-year-old health
care law. It also comes nearly four
months since a bipartisan majority in
the Senate passed a comprehensive
immigration bill that would tighten
border security and provide a path to
citizenship for the 11 million immi-
grants living here illegally.
Rather than create problems, lets
prove to the American people that
Washington can actually solve some
problems, Obama said during an
event devoted to immigration at the
White House.
The Senate measure has stalled in the
House, where most Republicans reject
a comprehensive approach and many
question offering citizenship to peo-
ple who broke U.S. immigration laws
to be in this country.
Still, White House ofcials say they
believe that the partial government
shutdown, rather than poisoning the
political atmosphere, may have creat-
ed an opportunity for collaboration
with Republicans seeking to repair
their image, which polls show took a
hit during the prolonged ght over
nancing the government and extend-
ing the nations borrowing limit.
Moreover, Obama made a point of
underscoring support for an immigra-
tion bill from the members of the busi-
ness community, traditional
Republican allies who criticized GOP
tactics that led to the partial shutdown
and to brinkmanship over a potential-
ly economy-jarring default on U.S.
debt.
The White House took notice when
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, indi-
cated on Wednesday that he was hope-
ful that immigration legislation could
be done before years end.
Obama calls for immigration
cooperation by end of the year
By Pete Yost
WASHINGTON The violent crime
rate went up 15 percent last year, and
the property crime rate rose 12 per-
cent, the government said Thursday,
signs that the nation may be seeing
the last of the substantial declines in
crime of the past two decades.
Last year marked the second year in a
row for increases in the crime victim-
ization survey, a report that is based
on household interviews.
The 2012 increases were driven by a
rise in crimes that were not reported to
police, a category frequently involv-
ing less-serious offenses. Simple
assaults also rose. The rate of property
crimes increased due to a rise in theft.
One year of bad news is something
you notice but dont necessarily draw
conclusions about. Two years of bad
news suggests it might be time to start
worrying, said Carnegie Mellon
University professor Jonathan
Caulkins.

WASHINGTON Contractors who
built the web portal for the Obama
administrations health insurance mar-
ketplace said Thursday the sites crip-
pling problems trace back to insuf-
cient testing and changes that govern-
ment ofcials made just prior to going
live.
Whos to blame? The rst congres-
sional hearing into what went wrong
dug into issues of website architecture
and testing protocols but also re-
stoked the partisan battle over
President Barack Obamas signature
expansion of health coverage for mil-
lions of uninsured Americans.
Republicans whove been trying to kill
the program the past three years sound-
ed outraged that it is being poorly car-
ried out, while Democrats jeered them as
political hypocrites.
What was clear after more than four
hours of testimony was that the con-
tractors had only partial answers, and
only the Obama administration can
eventually put the entire picture togeth-
er to explain the botched rollout.
Better times are coming, said execu-
tives from CGI Federal, which built the
HealthCare.gov website serving 36
states, and from QSSI, which created a
component that helps verify appli-
cants incomes and other personal
details. They said problems are being
xed daily and expressed optimism that
anybody who wants coverage will able
to get it by Jan. 1.
Website contractors point fingers at Obama admin.

More victims of online
abuse reach out to parents
WASHINGTON Sarah Ball was a 15-
year-old high school sophomore at
Hernando High School in Brooksville, Fla.,
when a friend posted on Facebook: I hate
Sarah Ball, and I dont care who knows.
Then there was the Facebook group
Hernando Haters asking to rate her attrac-
tiveness, plus an anonymous email calling
her a waste of space. And this text arrived
on her 16th birthday: Wow, youre still
alive? Impressive. Well happy birthday any-
way.
It wasnt until Sarahs mom, who had
access to her daughters online passwords,
saw the messages that the girl told her
everything.
More young people are reaching out to
family members after being harassed or
taunted online, and its helping. A poll
released Thursday by the Associated Press-
NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and
MTV found incidents of digital abuse are
still prevalent but declining somewhat. It
found a growing awareness among teenagers
and young adults about harm from online
meanness and cyberbullying, as well as a
slight increase among those willing to tell a
parent or sibling.
Two shot at National
Guard armory; gunman in custody
MILLINGTON, Tenn. A member of the
National Guard opened re at an armory out-
side a U.S. Navy base in Tennessee, wound-
ing two soldiers before being subdued and
disarmed by others soldiers, ofcials said
Thursday.
Millington Police Chief Rita Stanback
said the shooter was apprehended Thursday
by other National Guard members, and that
he did not have the small handgun used in the
shooting in his possession by the time of-
cers arrived. Stanback said two National
Guard members were shot, one in the foot
and one in the leg.
Im sure there could have been more
injury if they hadnt taken him into cus-
tody, Stanback said.
Maj. Gen. Max Haston, Tennessees adju-
tant general, said at a news conference that
the victims were being treated at a local hos-
pital and he expected them to be released.
Authorities havent released the name of
the shooter or the victims. But Haston said all
three of the men were recruiters and that the
shooter was a sergeant rst class who had
been in the Guard about six or seven years and
that the victims one a major and the other
a sergeant major were his superiors.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The citys rising utility rates,
downtown vitality and economic
development are top concerns for
those running for San Bruno City
Council.
The four seeking ofce are coun-
cilmen Rico Medina and Ken
Ibarra and challengers Andrew
Mason and Marty Medina for two
open seats on the council. The
citys ability to maintain its
streets and sidewalks was also of
concern for the candidates.
Interviews were held this week
to help the Daily Journal deter-
mine endorsements. To allow each
candidate a forum to express their
opinions on the issues discussed,
candidates were given the same
questions and asked to answer each
in around 50 words. Answers are
arranged alphabetically by the
candidates last name.
What i s the bi ggest chal-
l enge faci ng the ci ty?
Ken Ibarra: San Bruno needs
to continue moving forward.
Were experiencing the return of
projects that had stalled with the
recession. With their revival, we
need to accommodate them with
timely reviews and approvals. The
completion of the new Caltrain
station/grade separation needs to
be promoted along with the
Transit Corridors Plan.
Andrew Mason: We need lead-
ership to ensure that the PG&E
San Bruno pipeline settlement
funds will be properly allocated to
ensure infrastructure and automa-
tion upgrades are made toward the
citys aging utility related water
and sewer infrastructure systems.
In addition, these upgrades must
ultimately realize lowered costs to
residents.
Marty Medi na: San Bruno
turns 100 next year with millions
of dollars of repairs are needed in
our sidewalks, streets, sewer and
water systems. The council has
repeatedly increased water and
sewer rates but we cannot spend
ourselves out of this problem. Its
unsustainable. We have to revamp
our maintenance and construction
programs.
Ri co Medi na: Our greatest
challenge is also our greatest
opportunity. We need to use the
$70 million settlement [from
PG&E] to move our community
forward and invest in our future.
We cannot let the past dene our
future but rather it must propel us
forward.
Whi l e downtown has an
i nterest i ng mi x of busi ness-
es, what else could be done
to bring new life there?
Ken Ibarra: We need everyday
services and more entertainment
or family uses. Residents clamor
for a bakery, stationary store and
even a post ofce. The park can
eventually be used as a central
activity and entertainment center.
A shuttle service from Bayhill
should be considered to give thou-
sands of workers more options.
Andrew Mason: We need to
create spaces in the city that could
be altered to bring in people for
live music/theater performances.
For instance, the park on the cor-
ner of Jenevein and San Mateo
avenues could be opened for the
public. Currently, it is roped off
and is unavailable for public
access.
Marty Medina: We could pro-
vide incentives to attract new
businesses and eliminate vacant
storefronts. We should improve
the lighting, cleanliness, vibran-
cy and showcase downtowns
diverse restaurants and businesses
with our cable company. We could
install tot-lot play equipment and
provide live music at the park and
a shuttle bus.
Rico Medina: With comple-
tion of the grade separation, we
need to move forward on the tran-
sit corridor plan so the train depot
and surrounding area can become a
downtown destination with a com-
bination of residential and com-
mercial use, along with improve-
ments to the nearby areas.
What fee, tax or ordinance
woul d you l i ke t o see
repealed?
Ken Ibarra: Ordinance 1284
needs to be repealed at least with-
in the Transit Corridors Plan area.
The TCP can only be effective
when underutilized properties are
allowed to build above 50 feet tall.
Creating a vibrant downtown and
city center depends on higher den-
sities and taller buildings
designed with sensitivity to the
surroundings.
Andrew Mason: The recent
increases in utilities fees, namely
water for residential users, pose a
strain on the residential popula-
tion, many of whom are retired or
on a xed income. City Council
leadership needs to vote against
any additional fee increases, and
continue to upgrade utility related
infrastructure systems.
Marty Medina: On one side of
town your car gets a ticket on
street sweeping day; on the other
side nothing. Also, currently a
property owner pays $354 for an
encroachment permit to repair
their sidewalk. The fee needs to be
reduced to cover actual expenses.
Ri co Medi na: Recently I
voted no on a recommendation to
increase the water and sewer rates.
Since the increase took effect July
1, I have heard nothing but frustra-
tion and concern from residents.
We must revisit this and look at
other options.
Do you thi nk the ci ty i s
maki ng the ri ght deci si ons
when i t comes to new devel-
opment?
Ken Ibarra: I am proud of what
we have planned and approved,
and we can do more to attract busi-

Obituary
Police seeking Comcast
employee impersonator
South San Francisco police are on the
lookout for a man who attempted to con-
vince a resident on the 3100 block of
Dublin Drive that he was a Comcast
employee on a service call but who left
when the resident said she was not a cus-
tomer of that cable company.
The incident took place at 7 p.m. and the
man apologized and left the area in a white
station wagon. The resident conrmed her
suspicion by calling the company and
learning that there were no pending service
calls in the area, according to police.
The man was described as white, mid-40s,
with a medium build and approximately 5
feet 7 inches. He has brown hair, brown
eyes and was wearing a dark jacket and
checkered shirt, according to police.
Yacht thief gets five years probation
AWyoming man who stole a $2 million
yacht from a Sausalito marina and ran it
aground in Pacica left San Mateo County
Jail for the rst time since his arrest in
March, San Mateo County District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe said.
San Mateo County Superior Court Judge
Barbara Mallach said Wednesday that in
light of Leslie Alan
Gardners mental health
issues, a sentence of ve
years probation and one
year in the county jail
was appropriate,
Wagstaffe said. As part of
his sentence, Gardner,
63, must remain in
California and pay
$1.38 million in restitu-
tion.
Gardner and a couple from Aptos alleged-
ly stole the 82-foot long vessel, named
Darling from the Sausalito Yacht Harbor
on March 4. Prosecutors said the trio par-
tied, drinking beer and eating pizza aboard
the boat as they cruised around the Bay and
subsequently into the ocean.
Around 6 a.m. Pacica police were called
out to the Linda Mar Beach, where the boat
had run aground in shallow water. The ves-
sel was freed and towed to Richmond for
repairs.
On Sept. 11, Gardner pleaded no contest
to grand theft, receiving stolen property in
excess of $3.2 million and vandalism.
The couple, who were dating at the time,
were never charged in the incident.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
T
here are times in political
campaigns when one
issue dominates, and
when that one issue is a major
plank of one candidates plat-
form, it provides a certain amount
of credence to that candidate.
So it is in the four-man race for
two seats on the San Bruno City
Council. Candidate Marty Medina
is focusing his campaign on water
and sewer rates and the need to
lower them, along with an empha-
sis on ensuring the citys infra-
structure needs are met in a cost-
effective and efcient manner.
Both may seem banal for a politi-
cal campaign, but they are a few
of the essential services a local
government provides to its resi-
dents. And the fact that this cam-
paign has centered on those
issues proves it is a real concern.
Marty Medina is a former public
works inspector for the city and
knows San Brunos infrastructure.
During his time with the city, he
said rank-and-le workers often
came up with alternative ideas on
how jobs and projects were con-
ducted and organized but that
those ideas were not adopted and
there was often a disconnect
between staff, management and
the council. That is a key perspec-
tive to have on this council.
Marty Medina also has bright
ideas on development and
improving the vitality of down-
town. In addition, he is an affable
man and willing to listen and
work with others. That is a key
asset for any council.
Incumbent Rico Medina has
thrown himself in the job for the
last eight years. He opposed
sewer and water rate increases and
frustration with the councils
decision has been evident. He is
fully immersed in the citys busi-
ness and has proven to be a good
listener and effective leader. The
city has not been ush with rev-
enue and Rico Medina has made it
a priority to spend what is avail-
able equitably. As the citys
downtown train station project is
completed and the economy con-
tinues to rebound, Rico Medina
has the energy and know-how to
help lead San Bruno to new suc-
cess.
Candidate Andrew Mason is
smart, enthusiastic and has
good ideas. He would also bene-
fit from just a bit more time
learning more about the city and
its business. His ideas on work-
ing with the San Bruno Park
Elementary School District are
solid, and perhaps he may con-
sider a future run for a position
on its Board of Trustees.
Incumbent Ken Ibarra has been
the very picture of community
involvement. His heart and soul
has been dedicated to the city and
it is telegraphed in nearly every-
thing he says. And he has a prac-
ticality that is useful. Avote for
him would certainly not be wasted
and it is difcult not to endorse
him in this race.
Every one of these candidates
has conducted himself profession-
ally and with respect for others.
Thats nice to see and the resi-
dents of San Bruno should be
proud to have such a cordial race
for City Council.
However, San Bruno continues
to face challenges and sometimes
a new face, new ideas and a new
approach is what will spark suc-
cess. With that in mind, we sug-
gest voters vote for Marty Medina
and Rico Medina for the two open
seats on the City Council.
Choose candidates
who work together
Editor,
When it comes to local govern-
ment, San Carlos has two commu-
nities of voters. One is comprised
of newcomers, parents who
moved here for the excellent pub-
lic schools. The other is long-
term residents who never did or
no longer have children attending
those schools.
Its fascinating how few voters
cast ballots for both the school
board and the council. If nothing
else, Id expect them to insist on
knowing where candidates stand
on the potential for collabora-
tion. But many parents research
school board hopefuls, and ignore
council candidates. Non-parents
study council contenders, and
often skip over those who want
to guide the district.
You see differences in the candi-
dates campaigns, too. Take those
running hard for the council.
Some, like Cameron Johnson,
Karen Clapper and Bob Grassilli,
are strong supporters of the
school district, both privately
and publicly.
After spending a decade on the
school board before being elected
to the council, I am keenly aware
of the opportunities for collabo-
ration between our two public
agencies. But for it to happen we
need leaders who understand we
are one community.
This November, I hope all San
Carlos voters will cast ballots in
both the council and board elec-
tions, and choose candidates who
want to work together. By bridg-
ing the divide between the city
and the district we can make San
Carlos even better than it already
is.

When the smoke has cleared
Editor,
Now that the recent confronta-
tion in Washington is over, the
whining liberals and media are
doing their very best to make the
Republicans fully at fault. Logic
belies this fact in that the presi-
dent refused any negotiation and
his liberal followers blindly
acceded to this kind of reasoning.
We elect our representatives to
act for the best interest of the
electorate, not personal or party
interests. Unfortunately, the bulk
who reach Washington are
focused on one idea, What do I
have to do to get re-elected?
Those who fought, in the recent
Washington conict, for their
ideology in government were
maligned and debased because
they refused to accept a liberal
(socialistic), poorly designed
program that was also scally
dangerous for the country. Now
that the smoke has cleared, isnt
it time to reconsider whom we
vote for in the future and whether
they truly represent our countrys
best interests?
The best solution to bring true
representation to our government
is term limits. How about it Mr.
and Mrs. America. The presidency
is term limited by the
Constitution. This the best solu-
tion to bring truly representative
government to Washington. Time
for a change.

Keighran for council
Editor,
Over the past few years, the
city of Burlingame has enjoyed
an evenhanded response to the
economic circumstances facing
us. Mayor Ann Keighran has been
a mainstay in Burlingames sur-
vival through these turbulent
times.
Anns leadership as mayor,
twice during this difcult period,
and her collaboration with an
extraordinary City Council, led to
the establishment of scal disci-
pline which promises to provide
nancial security for our commu-
nity for decades.
Ann Keighrans qualications
for City Council are impeccable.
She has more in-depth experience
in managing a dynamic, growth-
oriented city, than any other can-
didate. She has lived in
Burlingame for 37 years, raising
a family, working in business and
engaging in civic affairs. In
1997, she was appointed to serve
on the Burlingame Planning
Commission and, in 2005, she
was elected to the Burlingame
City Council. She is a valuable
contributor and an asset to
Burlingame.
The evidence of her work on
behalf of the citizens of
Burlingame is apparent, not only
in our nancial rebound, but the
forthcoming Broadway
Interchange; the program to
improve and enhance Burlingame
Avenue, which program enjoyed
active involvement by hundreds
of citizens and local business
owners; and her continuous sup-
port of Burlingames schools.
Education is one of Burlingames
appeals to young families search-
ing for a suitable city in which to
settle and raise children.
Lets have Ann Keighran con-
tinue to serve our interests.

Big movers
By Ken Sweet
NEW YORK Another dose of
strong corporate earnings, this time
from Ford, Southwest Airlines and oth-
ers, helped push the stock market
higher on Thursday.
Its one of the busiest weeks on Wall
Street for companies posting their
quarterly results. Roughly a third of
the Standard & Poors 500 index will
report earnings, including some of the
worlds best-known companies.
For investors, this week has also
been a welcome return to business as
usual. Wall Street has been focused for
weeks on whats going on in
Washington, with the government
shutdown, the near-breach of the
nations borrowing limit and ques-
tions about whats next for the Federal
Reserves massive bond-buying pro-
gram.
So far, corporate earnings have come
in pretty much as most money man-
agers expected. Companies are report-
ing bigger prots, but most of the
growth has come from cost-cutting, a
trend that hasnt changed very much
since the nancial crisis.
Were in a slow-growth economy
and companies need to do everything
to boost earnings, said Brian
Reynolds, chief market strategist at
Rosenblatt Securities.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 95.88 points, or 0.6 percent, to
15,509.21. The S&P 500 index added
5.69 points, or 0.3 percent, to
1,752.07, about two points below the
record high of 1,754.67 it reached on
Tuesday.
The Nasdaq composite was up 21.89
points, or 0.6 percent, to 3,928.96.
Among companies reporting earn-
ings, Ford earned an adjusted prot of
45 cents per share a record for the
third quarter as sales rose 12 percent
to $36 billion. The Dearborn, Mich.-
based automaker sold 1.5 million cars
and trucks in the period, up 16 percent.
Wall Street analysts had expected Ford
to earn 37 cents per share, according to
FactSet. Ford rose 24 cents, or 1.5 per-
cent, to $17.76.
Southwest Airlines, the nations
largest domestic air carrier, reported
sharply higher earnings. Southwest
said it had an adjusted prot of 34 cents
per share, up from 13 cents a year ago.
Southwest rose 61 cents, or 4 percent,
to $17.02.
AT&T fell 65 cents, or 1.8 percent,
to $34.63. The telecommunications
company said late Wednesday it had an
adjusted prot of 66 cents in the third
quarter, a penny above analysts fore-
casts, however revenue fell slightly
short of what analysts expected.
Two technology giants, Microsoft
and Amazon, reported results after the
stock market closed Thursday. Both
beat analysts expectations. Amazon
rose 5 percent and Microsoft jumped
6.5 percent in after-market trading.
Wall Street also had some positive
news out of China. AChinese manufac-
turing index rose to a seven-month
high in October, suggesting continued
momentum for the rebound in the
worlds second-biggest economy.
With the S&P 500 trading near a
record high and corporations nding it
difcult to increase their sales, several
market watchers have said they arent
sure how much further stocks can go
from here.
There are signs that stocks are get-
ting expensive. Investors are currently
paying more than $16 for every $1 of
earnings in the S&P 500, up from $14
at the beginning of the year.
Higher profits from Ford, others drive stocks up
Were in a slow-growth economy and
companies need to do everything to boost earnings.

By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON The number of people
seeking U.S. unemployment benefits
dropped 12,000 to a seasonally adjusted
350,000 last week, though the total was
elevated for the third straight week by tech-
nical problems in California.
The Labor Department said Thursday that
the less volatile four-week average jumped
by nearly 11,000 to 348,250.
Weekly applications have been inated
for the past three weeks, largely because
California has been processing a huge
number of applications that were delayed
because of a computer upgrade. The 16-day
partial government shutdown has also lift-
ed claims this month because a number of
government contractors were laid off tem-
porarily.
Agovernment spokesman said the back-
log in California affected last weeks g-
ures but noted shutdowns impact appears
to be fading.
Applications have declined for the past
two weeks, suggesting California is work-
ing through its backlog. And in August,
before all the distortions, applications had
fallen to pre-recession levels. That indicat-
ed companies were cutting very few work-
ers.
Falling applications for unemployment
benets are typically followed by more hir-
ing. But in recent months hiring has
slowed, rather than accelerated.
Employers added only 148,000 jobs in
September, the government said Tuesday,
down from 193,000 in August. The
September jobs report was delayed 2 1/2
weeks because of the shutdown.
Hiring has slowed since the beginning of
the year: Job gains averaged 207,000 from
January through March, but fell to 182,000
from April through June and dropped further
to 143,000 from July through September.
And hiring likely weakened further in
October. Government contractors tem-
porarily laid off workers. Other companies,
such as restaurants and hotels located near
national parks that were closed, also likely
cut jobs.
About 350,000 government workers
were temporarily laid off during the shut-
down, which ended on Oct. 16. Thursdays
report showed that more than 44,000 laid-
off federal workers applied for benets in
the week ended Oct. 12, the latest data
available. Thats down from 70,000 in the
previous week. Applications by federal
workers, however, are not included in the
unemployment claims data.
Most federal workers will have to repay
the benets once they receive back pay, but
that varies according to state law.
Nearly 3.9 million people were receiv-
ing unemployment aid in the week ended
Oct. 5, the latest data available. Thats
about 70,000 fewer than the previous
week.
Many economists estimate the shutdown
cut about $25 billion from the economy.
Several have lowered their forecasts for
growth in the October-December quarter by
a half-point to an annual rate of 2 percent
or less.
Unemployment aid applications drop to 350,000
Zynga trims 3Q losses, stock surges
SAN FRANCISCO Zynga Inc. whittled its third-
quarter losses even as its revenue plunged and fewer peo-
ple played its digital games.
The improvement raised investors hopes that the
hobbled company might be able to regain its stride
under a new CEO hired during the summer, and shares
jumped 13 percent in after-hours trading.
The results announced Thursday served as the rst
report card for Don Mattrick, a respected video-game
executive who was overseeing Microsofts Xbox divi-
sion until he was hired in July to replace Zynga founder
Mark Pincus as CEO of the San Francisco company.
Mattrick is turning to an old colleague to help him in
his attempt to engineer a turnaround. Zynga said
Thursday that Clive Downie will become its chief oper-
ating ofcer beginning Nov. 4. Downie, 41, is defect-
ing from a mobile game maker called DeNA, but he and
Mattrick previously worked together at video game
maker Electronic Arts Inc.
Business brief
By Jason Dearen
SAN FRANCISCO Eight states,
including California and New York,
pledged Thursday to work together to
dramatically multiply the number of
zero-emission cars on the nations roads
by speeding the construction of charg-
ing stations and other infrastructure.
The goal is to put 3.3 million battery-
powered cars, plug-in hybrids and other
clean-burning vehicles on the roads in
those states by 2025. Thats more than
15 times as many zero-emission vehi-
cles projected to be in use in the entire
U.S. by 2015.
Auto dealers say networks of charging
stations and other conveniences are cru-
cial to winning over drivers who are
accustomed to pulling up to the gas
pump and fear getting stranded by a dead
battery.
The other states in the pact are
Massachusetts, Maryland, Oregon,
Connecticut, Rhode Island and Vermont.
The eight states together represent about
23 percent of the U.S. auto market.
The Associated Press breaks down
why there are not more zero-emission
cars already, the keys to accomplishing
the goal and the formidable challenges:
How does this agreement differ from
plans already in place in the states?
Each state has already separately
adopted rules to require a percentage of
new vehicles sold to be zero-emission
by 2025.
For example, Californias mandate of
15.4 percent calls for a total of 1.5 mil-
lion zero-emission vehicles to be on the
states roads by that time. Currently,
plug-in hybrids and electric vehicles
make up less than 2 percent of the
states market.
The agreement signed Thursday is
aimed at coordinating efforts among the
eight states so that incentives, zoning
laws and other ideas for promoting zero-
emission vehicles can be more quickly
implemented.
The idea is to make it easier for cus-
tomers to operate and use zero-emission
vehicles. This in turn will help pave the
way for success of the auto industry,
said Mary Nichols, chairman of the
California Air Resources Board.
Eight states join forces to promote clean cars
SAN FRANCISCO Apples fiscal
fourth-quarter report will close the
books on a sobering year for the
maker of the iPhone and iPad.
The results, due out after the stock
market closes Monday, are expected
to mark Apples third consecutive
quarter of declining earnings from the
previous year. The slump followed a
decade-long streak of rising profits
that began shortly after Apple Inc.
introduced the iPod in 2001. The
company then broke even more new
ground with the subsequent releases
of the iPhone in 2007 and iPad in
2010.
Apple hasnt forged any new fron-
tiers since then, while rivals such as
Google Inc., Samsung Electronics,
Amazon.com Inc. and Microsoft
Corp. have come up with their own
smartphones and tablet computers to
siphon sales away from the iPhone
and iPad. Many of the alternatives
offer the same features as Apples
gadgets and sell at less expensive
prices.
Those factors have undercut the
popularity of both the iPhone and
iPad, depressing Apples earnings and
stock price. Apples shares have
recently been hovering between $520
and $530, roughly 25 percent below
their peak of $705.07 reached 13
months ago. Over the same stretch,
the Standard & Poors 500 index has
climbed by about 20 percent.

Allow the Daily Journal to give
you one key piece of advice if you
plan on attending Friday after-
noons game between Menlo
School and Terra Nova.
Dont blink because chances
are you could miss something
exciting.
Thats the allure behind the
Peninsula Athletic Leagues mar-
quee matchup this week. Wi t h
Menlo and Terra Nova taking the
eld you have two of the most
explosive offenses in the
Peninsula Athletic League. While
both defenses will do their best to
stop one another, statistics and
recent history suggests fans will
be in for a barnburner.
In the Tigers, you have a foot-
ball team that has scored at least
38 points in ve of its six games
this season and is averaging 44
points a contest.
But the Knights will see those
44 per and raise you another ve.
Menlo has yet to score less than
42 points in a game this year. And
even in their lone loss during a
trip to Texas, the Knights put up
49.
Yes, thats right, expect touch-
downs and points by the bunch.
Were playing the team that is
the fourth best in the Central
Coast Section according to a lot of
people, said Menlo head coach
Mark Newton. Were super excit-
ed to take on the challenge. Weve
played some great teams this year

NOT TAKING OPPONENT LIGHTLY: DESPITE FACING A WINLESS JAGUARS TEAM, 49ERS NOT OVERLOOKING THEM >> PAGE 12
DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE
Menlo quarterback Jack Heneghan and the Menlo offense will be tested by the Terra Nova defense Friday.
The PALs two most potent offenses face off today
Lake Division
Hillsdale (2-0, 4-2) at
Mills (1-1, 4-2), 3 p.m. Friday
The Knights knocked off
Jefferson last week, 49-14. The
Vikings were vanquished by
Kings Academy, 19-15. Last
year, Hillsdale topped Mills 26-
14. In two division games,
Hillsdale is averaging 41.5
points. It was all about the big
plays for the Knights last week.
Quarterback Cole Carrithers com-
pleted only 5 of 9 passes, but aver-
aged nearly 26 yards a completion.
The Knights also rushed for 207
yards on 31 carries, averaging
nearly seven yards a pop. Mills
has struggled offensively since
entering Lake Division play. After
averaging nearly 38 points per
game in four non-league
matchups, the Vikings have scored
an average of 14.5 points through
their rst two games of PAL play.
El Camino (1-1, 4-2) at
Kings Academy (1-0, 3-3), 7 p.m.
Friday
The Colts rebounded from a loss
to Mills two weeks ago to capture
a 21-0 win over Carlmont last
week. The Knights thrust them-
selves into Ocean Division con-
tention by beating Mills 19-15.
This is the teams rst meeting
since Kings Academy entered the
PAL in 2008. The Knights won
that meeting 46-6. Through two
games, El Camino has the Lake
Divisions best defense, having
allowed just 14 points through two
games. A win over Kings
Academy puts the Colts right back
in the race for the Lake Division
title. Aloss would all but eliminate
them from contention. Kings
Academy quarterback Dominic
Sabel had his second-best game of
the season in last weeks win over
Mills. The second-year signal
caller, just a junior, completed 14
of 26 passes for 219 yards and a
touchdown. The Knights had
323 yards of offense last week.
Ocean Division
Woodside (2-0, 2-4) at
Aragon (1-1, 4-2), 3 p.m. Friday
The Wildcats walloped Capuchino
58-24 last week. The Dons were
downed by Burlingame, 33-17.
The last time these teams faced each
other, 2011, Aragon came away with
a 35-20 win. Woodside has won
two straight Ocean Division games
since opening the season 0-4.

BOSTON Just when it seemed Michael
Wacha had cracked, the St. Louis Cardinals
began scooting around the bases and tied the
World Series.
Wacha beat John Lackey in a matchup of
present and past rookie sensations, and this
time it was the Cardinals turn to take advan-
tage of sloppy elding as St. Louis topped the
Boston Red Sox 4-2 Thursday night to even
the Series at a game apiece.
David Ortiz put Boston ahead in the sixth
inning with a two-run homer just over the
Green Monster in left, ending Wachas score-
less streak at 18 2-3 innings a rookie
record for a single postseason.
But then Lackey, who in 2002 with the
Angels became the rst rookie in 93 years to
win Game 7 of a World Series, faltered in a
three-run seventh. St. Louis went ahead when
Matt Carpenter hit a sacrice y that led to a
pair of runs, with the second scoring on errors
by catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia and reliever
Craig Breslow.
Carlos Beltran, back in the lineup after
bruising ribs in the opener, followed with an
RBI single.
I wanted to be in the lineup. I worked so
hard to get to this point, Beltran said.
Somebody would have to kill me in order for
me to be out of the lineup.
Wacha, a 22-year-old right-hander, wasnt
quite as sharp and allowed two runs, three hits
and four walks in six innings with six strike-
outs. But he improved to 4-0 in four outings
this postseason, matching the amount of reg-
ular-season wins he has in his brief career.
He pitched outstanding, Cardinals catcher
Yadier Molina said. Just one pitch, to a great
hitter like Big Papi. We take our hat off to
him, but I mean, he pitched good tonight.
His parents and sister made the trip from
Texarkana, Texas, and sat bundled in cold-
weather clothes in the stands to watch Wacha,
the 19th pick in last years amateur draft.
The Cardinals hard-throwing bullpen com-
bined for one-hit relief, with Trevor Rosenthal
striking out all three batters in the ninth for a
save. He whiffed Daniel Nava with a 99 mph
fastball to end it.
All three St. Louis pitchers Thursday night
were 23 or younger.
It doesnt surprise me. Those guys got tal-
ent, Molina said. Like I said many times
before, theyre not afraid to pitch.
Seeking its second World Series title in
three seasons, St. Louis improved to 7-0 this
postseason when scoring rst and stopped
Bostons Series winning streak at nine.
When the Series resumes Saturday night at
Busch Stadium, Jake Peavy starts for the Red
Sox and Joe Kelly for the Cardinals. Twenty-

BOSTON David Krejci tipped in a shot
with eight-tenths of a second left in the
third period to lift the Boston Bruins to a 2-
1 win over San Jose on Thursday night,
sending the Sharks to their rst regulation
loss of the season.
Jarome Iginla scored his rst goal with
the Bruins (7-2) and goaltender Tuukka Rask
was outstanding, making 38 saves.
Patrick Marleau had San Joses goal, his
eighth of the season. Antti Niemi stopped
15 shots.
Krejci, positioned in the slot, tipped
defenseman Adam McQuaids shot from the
point between Niemis pads for the game-
winner.
The Sharks (8-1-1) tied the game at 1-all
on the opening shift of the third period
when Marleau swooped in from the left
wing, slipping a rebound past Rask 18 sec-
onds into the period.
Seconds later, Rask
came across the crease
and made a blocker save
on Tomas Hertl at the end
of a 2-on-1 break. The
Sharks kept up the pres-
sure with a urry of shots
over the next 2 1/2 min-
utes.
The Bruins had an
excellent chance with 2
1/2 minutes left in regulation when Niemi
dropped to make a pad save on Krejcis bid
from in close.
Iginla had given Boston a 1-0 lead with
1:12 left in the second when he collected
the rebound of Dennis Seidenbergs shot
near the bottom of the right circle, ring a
shot that trickled into the net after hitting
Niemis right pad and slipping between his
legs.
Signed to a one-year free-agent deal that
could earn him as much as $6 million with
incentives, Iginla had a big smile on his
face as he went over to the bench to accept
congratulations from his teammates.
The 36-year old winger vetoed a trade that
would have sent him to the Bruins when
they had a deal in place at last seasons trad-
ing deadline. He ended up accepting a deal to
Pittsburgh, which was swept in the Eastern
Conference nals by Boston last spring.
Niemi had robbed Patrice Bergeron about
2 minutes before Iginlas goal when he came
across the crease to make a glove stop at the
end of a 2-on-1 break.
Bruins winger Shawn Thornton unloaded a
slap shot that caromed off the left post 3
minutes into the second.
The Bruins played the rst period like
many of their fans from the slimmed-down
crowd like they had something else on
their minds. With the Red Sox hosting
Game 2 of the World Series at Fenway Park
about 3 miles away, there were a decent num-
ber of empty seats despite the clubs 170th
straight sellout of TD Garden.
The arena, which was less than a third full
about 10 minutes before game time, ended
up being only about three-quarters lled,
with many open seats in the club and lower
sections.
San Jose outshot Boston 16-3 in the
opening period at times, controlling the
puck for lengthy stretches in the Bruins
zone.
NOTES: Bostons GM Peter Chiarelli
said in a statement before the game that
winger Loui Eriksson was diagnosed with a
concussion and will be out indenitely
after a hit on Wednesday from Buffalos
enforcer John Scott, who was issued a match
penalty for charging. Scott was suspended
indenitely by the NHL on Thursday. It
ended Erikssons streak of consecutive
games played at 148. ... It was the Sharks
second game of a season-long ve-game
road trip. They also play at Montreal,
Ottawa and the Los Angeles Kings before
returning home to face Phoenix on Nov. 2.

LONDON The San Francisco 49ers have
no doubt that the Jacksonville Jaguars can
be a formidable opponent despite their 0-7
record. Just watch the tape.
The 49ers return to London for the second
time in three years as part of the NFL
International Series, playing the Jaguars on
Sunday at Wembley Stadium.
The defending NFC champions are 5-2 and
in the thick of the NFC West title race with
the Seattle Seahawks (6-1). San Francisco
last played an overseas game in 2010, beat-
ing the Denver Broncos 24-16 at Wembley.
It may sound cliche, but the 49ers are try-
ing not to overlook their opponent. And
they have the lm to prove it.
Were trailing Seattle right now, so our
mindset is we have to get this one. Were in
the hunt, motivation is not a problem,
49ers defensive tackle Justin Smith said
Thursday from the teams training camp out-
side London. (Theyre) playing for (their)
jobs, playing for (their) career. Youre put-
ting tape out to prove you belong in this
league.
Looking at the tape (or lm), the 49ers
see a worthy, hungry opponent in the win-
less Jaguars.
When you turn on the lm you might
have preconceived ideas yourself. But when
you look at the lm, the lm tells you
everything, said offensive coordinator
Greg Roman, who compared Jacksonvilles
defensive scheming to the Seahawks. They
are a very dangerous team. While they
havent come up with (any) wins, they are
getting better every week.
For the 49ers, the tape has revealed a dan-
gerous defensive line that applies heavy
pressure and delivers clean hits on the quar-
terback. On the offensive end, getting back
in the lineup wide receiver Justin Blackmon
has made a difference for the Jaguars, who
are also counting on the return of wide
receivers Ace Sanders and Stephen Burton.
Theyve made a lot of improvements in
the last four weeks. The evidence is on the
tape when you watch it, and the evidence is
there when you look at the stats, 49ers
defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said.
This is the NFL and there is a ne line
between winning and losing.
The 49ers have won four straight and are
on a different momentum swing to the
Jaguars. But there are other tangibles, such
as the Wembley Stadium eld, And intangi-
bles the fatigue from travel that could
sway both teams come Sunday. Both insist
they are settling into their surroundings
without fault and will be ready.
Its a far cry from Faulty Towers,
Roman said of the teams luxury hotel in the
countryside, alluding to the British TV sit-
com that starred Monty Pythons John
Cleese as a farcical hotel owner. Theres
rich history here. (But now) were grinding
away. Weve been doing nothing much but
preparing for the game.
The effects of travel and another time zone
are talked up, but there are some positives to
the long ight.
Fortunately with the iPad to be able to
watch tape and an 8 1-2 hour trip gives you
some time, Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said.
Regardless of the statistics, the momen-
tum, or the distraction of London, it may all
come down to studying the tape.
I still question how they are 0-7. The
more I look at the lm the more Im like
Wow, they have some playmakers, 49ers
linebacker Patrick Willis said. They can do
some things on offense, so we cant get
caught up in the wins and loss records.
49ers promise not to
overlook the Jaguars
Terrell Owens to try
hand at pro bowling career
LAS VEGAS Terrell Owens has nally
found a sport where he doesnt have to worry
about getting the ball.
T.O. wants to be a professional bowler.
You never know where it may go, Owens
said. For me the sky is the limit with my
ability and what I can do.
The former wide receiver still believes he
should be on the football eld on Sundays,
catching passes and making millions like
he did not so long ago. Hell spend this
weekend trying to make his mark on the
lanes instead.
Im not just making a cameo, Owens
said in a telephone interview. I know crit-
ics want to come out of the woodwork. But
when I rst got on a football team I wasnt
very good.
Owens doesnt appear to be all that good
at bowling, either, though he does claim a
high game of 288. Hes a bit vague, though,
about how often he bowls and what his aver-
age is.
He did, however, compete on a team spon-
sored by the Bowlers Journal this summer at
the United States Bowling Congress
Championship, the largest amateur event in
the country. Owens posted a combined score
of 1,508 for team, singles and doubles for a
167 average.
I know I have competitive ability to do it
otherwise I wouldnt be doing it, he said. I
just have to go out there and bowl like
everyone else.

Majority-woman crew
officiates D-2 football game
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. It was a typical college foot-
ball game Thursday night except that four of the seven
people wearing the black-and-white stripes were women.
The Southern Intercollege Athletic Conference is
billing the Miles-Lane game as the rst time theres been
a majority-female ofciating crew for an NCAAgame.
The event was signicant enough that the NFLs direc-
tor of ofciating David Coleman, director of recruiting
Ron Baynes and regional scout Bob Shoulders attended
the game. They wanted to see head linesman Yvonda
Lewis, line judge Tangela Mitchell, eld judge Sebrina
Brunson and back judge Krystle Apellaniz in action.
They paid their dues, said Harold Mitchell, director of
ofciating for the SIAC and SWAC. Theyve done whats
necessary to get in this position. Theyve earned it. And
Im hoping it will show the world that females can ofci-
ate just as well as men, and Im hoping that more females
will take the step to try to become football ofcials.
Hair tucked neatly into their caps and looking petite
among the players, they mostly drew little attention once
the game started a plus for ofcials.
The NFLbegan a Women Ofciating Now (W.O.N.) pro-
gram this year as part of the Football Officiating
Academy launched in 2010. The program is designed to
help recruit and train female ofcials.

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Westmoors girls volleyball team is admittedly one of the
smallest teams in the Peninsula Athletic League. Talk to
Rams fans and they darn near apologize for the teams lack
of height.
As a result, Westmoor doesnt boast much prototypical
kill prowess, but the squad makes up for it with all-around
sound fundamentals. And the Rams showed off those funda-
mentals yesterday with a sweep at Capuchino 25-19, 25-
20, 25-20.
However, Westmoor (7-3 Ocean Division, 17-15 overall)
did have its kill shots working from the service line, total-
ing 18 aces in the match. Senior Hanna Ticzon and junior
Marlene Alcantara tied with a match-high ve aces apiece.
For our team, its not all about hitting, Alcantara said.
We just play good defense and stay on point until the other
team makes a mistake.
Its been an all-or-nothing season for the Rams, who
themselves were swept Tuesday. With that lopsided loss to
Sequoia, Westmoor was all but eliminated from postseason
play, falling two games behind Sequoia and Terra Nova,
each tied atop the winner-gets-an-automatic-Central Coast
Section-bid Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division.
But that doesnt stop Westmoor from leading the league in
smiles. According to Westmoor head coach Rex Mauga-
Head, the smiles are something of a mission for his varsity
squad. Mauga-Head is actually one of the busiest coaches in
the PAL, moonlighting as head coach of Westmoors frosh-
soph squad. And with the frosh-soph Rams having won just
one game this season, the varsity squad has made a point of
brightening their coachs days.
They call themselves the sunshine team to make things
seem a lot sunnier, Mauga-Head said.
Sometimes the smiles can be a detriment though, as the
Rams, at times, lack the intensity to dominate on the court.
Yesterday, Westmoor had opportunities to run away with the
match. But even though they led throughout, they allowed
Capuchino (4-6, 8-10) to keep it close in Game 1 and Game
3, turning what should have been walks in the park into a
nail-biters. Westmoor committed 33 errors in the match.
The intensity level is high, but when they look at the
score, they tone it down a little bit, Mauga-Head said.
They nd that chill mode a little too much.
Westmoor jumped ahead in Game 1 with a strong perform-
ance from senior Marinel Alcantara, who tabbed six of her
nine match kills in the set. Marinel Alcantara is the older
sister of libero Marlene Alcantara, and the duo has played
together for three years on the varsity squad. The two per-
sonify the team in the height department, as Marinel at 5-
foot-1 towers above her little sister, who stands 4-foot-
10.
We all really trust each other, and believe in each other
with digging the ball and we get really happy if a good
play comes, Marinel Alcantara said.
In Game 2, Cap showed some presence at net, as senior
Rebecca McKenna scored four of her eight match kills,
along with two blocks. McKenna was moved to middle hit-
ter yesterday for the rst time this season after an injury to
Xenia Collins in non-league action Wednesday forced
Mustangs head coach Lynn Niemira to shufe her lineup.
By Game 3, however, Westmoors dominance at the serv-
ice line was too much for Capuchino to handle. Early in the
set, Ticzon scored four consecutive aces. Capuchinos
defense has been struggling in this department all season.
According to Niemira, surrendering 18 aces yesterday was-
nt even the teams worst performance of the year.
We just arent very good at passing right now, Niemira
said. Its been a problem all year.
Still, Cap has won four of its last six matches, including
Wednesdays non-league match against Mission.
Other Ocean results
Terra Nova (9-1, 19-7) swept Mills 25-23, 25-15, 25-
13. Tigers senior Ali Vidali tabbed a match-high 19 kills,
while Anna Listmann had 10 kills. Katie McKay had four
aces.
Sequoia (9-1, 15-2) breezed past Jefferson 25-8, 25-10,
25-4. Rachel Fink and Leanne Robinson paced the
Cherokees with nine kills apiece.
Gridlocked atop the Ocean Division, Sequoia head coach
Dustyn Woropay is concerned with totaling enough power
points to qualify for the Central Coast Section playoffs
regardless how the standings shake out. Sequoia has defeat-
ed three A-league teams in non-league action this season
Hillsdale, Gunn, and Lee and has Mercy-Burlingame on
the schedule next week.
Were trying to rack up some (CCS) points here,
Woropay said.
Bay Division results
Carlmont (9-1, 19-8) topped Burlingame (6-4, 17-9) in
four sets 26-28, 25-17, 25-16, 25-13. Charlotte Jackman
paced the Scots with a match-high 18 kills, and Amelia
Tupou had 41 assists. Burlingames Morgan McKeever
tabbed 12 kills, and Isabell Walker had 36 assists.
Woodside (9-1, 16-7) downed Aragon (1-8, 13-11) 25-
19, 25-19, 25-12.

already. In terms of the Bay, every team is
really good. Terra Nova is the cream of the
crop. Coach (Bill) Gray has done an amaz-
ing job to prepare his kids. Were focused
on playing a great football team but were
not really worried about what that means for
our position in the Bay. We just play three
more great teams the following weeks.
Terra Nova will be Menlos toughest test
to date. Aweek after picking apart Sequoia
to the tune of 378 yards of total offense and
six touchdowns, the Knights face a defense
that is often overlooked because of just how
potent Terra Novas offense really is. But
the Tigers are big, physical and have only
given up 85 points this season.
Theyre a great team in all three facets,
Newton said. Even with the great offenses
that we both have, it comes down to block-
ing and tackling. Both teams do a great job
of getting guys in space and using their ath-
leticism to turn short plays into big plays.
They also have a great inside run game, a
good power game. The key is, if you cant
make a tackle right at the line of scrimmage
or behind the line, that we make it shortly
thereafter.
Newton was referring to stopping Terra
Novas dynamite players, most notably
Jaylend Jones, who continues to put up
Player of the Year type numbers from the
wide receiver position. Jones has 32 catch-
es for 748 yards and eight touchdowns this
season as part of an offense that is averag-
ing over 337 yards in the air and 143 on the
ground. Pulling the trigger is Newcomer of
the Year candidate Anthony Gordon, who
has been nothing short of sensational with
his 313 yards passing per game. And like
Newton said, John Wallace and the Terra
Nova offensive live know a thing or two
about running the ball when they want.
Wallace alone is averaging 123 yards on the
ground per game.
Their offense is quite prolic and has
some big-time playmakers, Newton said.
I think its do-your-job football, everyone
focused on their assignment and make sure
were sound on the back end with our cover-
age and that we take advantage of the
moments when we can get pressure. Theyre
a sound running team as well. They can go
balanced attack when they want to. They
certainly can throw the ball really well. Its
going to be tough.
Tough as they are, and with all due respect
to all six teams Terra Nova has defeated
already, Menlos advantage comes in the
thinking that perhaps the best defense is a
good offense.
And when that offense is led by Jack
Heneghan a quarterback unlike any the
Tigers have faced this season and arguably
the best the PAL has seen in some time
you have to like Menlos chances Friday
afternoon.
I think if we were to come out on top we
would win the ratio of big plays in our favor
as opposed to the negative, Newton said.
And the team that plays the best defensive
ball has the best chance to win since both
offenses are exceptional. So, its going to
come down to getting the big play or pre-
venting the big play as long as the offenses
are relatively consistent.
Heneghan comes into the game averaging
313 yards passing per game after complet-
ing nearly 62 percent of his passes (for a
14.5-yard per completion average) with 26
touchdowns and six interceptions. Hes also
dangerous on the ground where hes second
on the Menlo team with 205 yards on the
year.
And just like Terra Nova, Menlo has a
bevy of weapons in Travis Chambers, Peter
Bouret and Jack Marren just to name a few.
The key to look for Friday, starting at 3
p.m., will be Menlos durability. Because
they do have a smaller roster, the Knights
rotation is smaller than the Tigers
hence, running around a football eld a full
48 minutes for some of their players gives
Terra Nova an advantage.

state record last week by returning three kick-
off returns for touchdowns for Woodside.
Holman had returns of 95, 90 and 65 yards. He
also returned a fumble for a fourth score.
Through two Ocean Division games, the
Wildcats are averaging 50 points per contest.
In their four non-league matches, the Wildcats
averaged just 12 points. Aragon needs a
win to have any hope of earning a co-champi-
onship in the Ocean Division. The Dons
offense was shut down last week by
Burlingame, amassing just 198 yards of
offense. The Wildcats will have their hands
full with Aragon fullback Patrick Pauni, who
averaged nearly ve yards a carry last week and
scored both Dons touchdowns.
Bay Division
Menlo-Atherton (1-1, 4-2) at
Sequoia (0-2, 3-3), 7 p.m. Friday
The Bears suffered a crushing 19-15 defeat
to Sacred Heart Prep last week. The
Cherokees were chopped down by Menlo
School, 42-10. This appears to be the
rst time since the PAL was created in its
current form that these two teams have
played each other. M-A led SHP 12-0 at
halftime and through the third quarter, but
surrendered 15 points in the fourth quarter to
lose. M-Aracked up 372 yards of offense
last week, including 176 yards passing from
Brian Keare and 109 yards rushing from
Isiah Nash. Spiro Papadakis caught six
passes for 78 yards. Through two Bay
Division games, the Bears have allowed
only 27 points. Sequoia has struggled
offensively the last three weeks. Through
their rst three games, the Cherokees aver-
aged 42 points. In their last three, theyve
combined for 34. The Cherokees man-
aged only 241 yards of offense last week,
including only 18 yards passing. QB
Faave Brown was a bright spot for Sequoia,
leading the team with 128 yards rushing on
18 carries.

Bay Division
South City (0-2, 2-4) at
Sacred Heart Prep (1-0, 6-0), 3 p.m. Friday
The Warriors were whipped 49-0 by Terra
Nova last week. The Gators got past
Menlo-Atherton, 15-12. This is the rst
meeting between these squads. After win-
ning its rst two games by a combined two
points, South City has lost four straight, by
an average of 51 points. The Warriors
have been shut out twice in the last three
weeks, by a combined score of 100 points.
The 12 points SHP allowed last week was
a season high for the Gators defense. The
15 points scored was a season low for the
Gators offense. SHP managed only 274
yards of offense last week, but it was enough
to pull out the win. SHP is one of three
teams still undefeated in the PAL along
with Bay rival Terra Nova and Ocean leader
Burlingame.
Ocean Division
Burlingame (1-0 Ocean, 6-0 overall) at
Half Moon Bay (0-2, 1-5), 7 p.m. Friday
The Panthers pulled away from Aragon
last week, 33-17. The Cougars collapsed
in a 23-22 loss to San Mateo. Last sea-
son, Burlingame cruised to a 31-7 win over
Half Moon Bay. The Burlingame defense
catapulted the Panthers to the win over
Aragon, scoring three touchdowns: two
Andrew Kennedy pick-6s and a Keone Keahi
blocked eld goal return. Offensively,
Manase Palu nished with 117 yards rush-
ing on 14 carries. He had 94 yards on nine
carries in the second half. Half Moon
Bay has lost three games in a row. The
Cougars, who surrendered the game-win-
ning score to San Mateo with 16 seconds to
play, had a chance to put the game away but
missed a 25-yard eld goal with just over
ve minutes to play. In the Cougars ve
losses, they scored a total of 83 points. In
their one win, they scored 56.
Capuchino (0-2 Ocean, 1-5 overall) at
San Mateo (1-0, 3-3), 7 p.m. Friday
The Mustangs were corralled in a 58-24
loss to Woodside last week. The Bearcats
pulled out a last-second, 23-22 win over
Half Moon Bay. Last year, both these
teams were in the Lake Division with
Capuchino coming away with a 30-23 win
over San Mateo. The 24 points scored
was the second-highest point total for
Capuchino this season, but is its highest
output in three weeks. The Mustangs
have allowed 132 points in their last three
games, including 99 in their rst two Ocean
Division contests. San Mateo may have
nally found a complement to RB Line Latu
in Finau Hafoka. In just his second game,
the junior ran wild over Half Moon Bay, n-
ishing with 22 carries for 170 yards and two
touchdowns including the game winner.
The Bearcats nished with 219 yards
rushing as a team last week. In San
Mateos three wins, the Bearcats are averag-
ing 28 points per game. In their three loss-
es, that average is only 11.
Lake Division
Jefferson (0-1 Lake, 0-6 overall) at
Carlmont (0-2, 2-4), 7 p.m. Friday
The Indians were handed a 49-14 loss by
Hillsdale last week. The Scots were shut
out 21-0 by El Camino. The last time
these two teams played each other was 2008
when Carlmont came away with a 42-7 vic-
tory. The 14 points scored was the sec-
ond most Jefferson has scored this season,
behind a 21-point effort against Lowell
three weeks ago. The 49 points allowed
was the least the Indians have allowed this
season. After starting the season 2-0,
Carlmont has lost four in a row. During
the losing streak, the Scots are averaging
under 11 points per game. Defensively,
Carlmont is solid. The Scots are giving up
an average of just 18 points per game.

ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders
defensive tackle Pat Sims knows
how difficult it is to sack
Pittsburgh quarterback Ben
Roethlisberger.
For five years the former
Cincinnati Bengal tried, mostly in
vain, to get Roethlisberger down.
In eight games against the 6-foot-
5 quarterback, Sims had 1 1-2
sacks and watched as Big Ben led
Pittsburgh to a trio of playoff
berths.
Hes a strong quarterback and
hes big, you know what Im say-
ing? Sims said Thursday. Hes a
quarterback thats harder to take
down. I love going against
Pittsburgh. Thats my kind of
style, my kind of football.
Roethlisbergers been sacked 22
times this season, tied for sev-
enth-most in the NFL.
Sims, who signed with Oakland
in the offseason, is looking for-
ward to getting another shot at
Roethlisberger and would love
nothing better than to have his
rst sack with the Raiders come
against his longtime rival.
Known primarily as a run stop-
per, Sims has come close a few
times this season but he remains
the lone member of Oaklands
starting defensive line without a
sack.
Getting one against
Roethlisberger would be a denite
step forward, though it often takes
more than one defender to drag the
240-pound quarterback down.
If you get a nice lick on him,
you really dont need multiple
guys, Sims said. You just have
to know how to rush Ben. Weve
been working on that this week so
well be ready. Hes a quarterback
just like everybody else.
With only seven sacks in the
last four games, Oaklands defense
overall needs to improve its pass
rush.
The Raiders led the NFL in that
department after two games but
have since gone cold. Although
theyve continued to pressure
opposing quarterbacks, the sacks
have been few and far between.
Were not perfect but I know by
the end of the season were going
to be on all cylinders, Sims said.
Were still developing. We have
moments where were playing
physical and sometimes where we
play nesse.
Oakland may need a little bit of
both styles against Pittsburgh.
The Steelers have won back-to-
back games after an 0-4 start, and
theyre getting much better play
from their quarterback.
Over his last two games,
Roethlisberger has completed
nearly 76 percent of his throws
while passing for 424 yards and a
pair of touchdowns. He threw ve
interceptions in the Steelers rst
four games but hasnt been picked
off since.
Roethlisberger has also thrown
just seven touchdowns and is on
pace for his fewest since 2010.
Sims looks forward to facing Roethlisberger

Anight after the Cardinals made three errors
in the opener and allowed the Red Sox to romp
8-1, the elding failures were on the other side.
Given a 2-1 lead, Lackey walked David Freese
with one out in the seventh and allowed Jon
Jays single. Breslow relieved, and the
Cardinals pulled off a double steal as pinch-run-
ner Pete Kozma swiped third.
It was an uncharacteristically aggressive
move for the Cardinals, who ranked last in the
National League with 45 stolen bases this year.
Daniel Descalso, who started at shortstop
after Kozma made two errors in the opener,
loaded the bases with a walk. Carpenter fol-
lowed with a y to medium left, and Jonny
Gomes throw home was slightly to the rst-
base side of the plate as Kozma scored the tying
run.
Saltalamacchia allowed the throw to glance
off his glove as Jay took off for third. Backing
up the plate, Breslow hesitated before throwing
to third, then sailed a high throw into the stands
as Jay came home with the go-ahead run.
Beltran, making his rst Series appearance at
age 36, singled to right for a two-run lead.
Afew hours before the game, Cardinals man-
ager Mike Matheny wasnt even certain Beltran
would be able to play. The eight-time All-Star
was sent to a hospital for scans Wednesday
night after bruising ribs while banging into the
right-eld fence to rob Ortiz of a grand slam.
Beltran said he was given painkillers, and he
appeared to be wearing protective padding under
his jersey.
Matt Holliday, whose ninth-inning solo
homer in the opener avoided a shutout, led off
the fourth by driving a 92 mph fastball to the
deepest part of Fenway Park, near the 420-foot
sign below the triangle section of the bleachers
in right-center. The ball hit with a thud off the
low fence on the side of the Boston bullpen, ric-
ocheting across toward straightaway center.
Matt Adams lined to second baseman Dustin
Pedroia, who made a diving catch with the
ineld halfway in. Molina followed with a
bouncer over the 6-foot-6 Lackey that was
grabbed by Pedroia, who realized his only play
was to rst as Holliday scored.
Ortiz erased that with his 17th career postsea-
son homer and fth this October, pouncing
when Wacha left an 85 mph changeup in the
middle of the strike zone.
SERIES
MARK L. BAER/USA TODAY SPORTS
Matt Holliday scores the rst run for St. Louis in the fourth inning. After falling behind 2-1, the
Cardinals scored three in the seventh to pull out a 4-2 win and even the World Series with Boston
at a game apiece.

TRANSACTIONS
INDIANAPOLIS Last years
national runner-ups in football and
mens basketball came out the big
winners in the classroom.
Of the 10 teams that reached the
BCS football championship game
and the mens and womens Final
Four, only one finished with a
graduation rate lower than 70 per-
cent in the NCAAs latest report,
with Notre Dame producing better
academic marks than national
champion Alabama and Michigan
coming in slightly ahead of
national champion Louisville.
Those marks are based on four
years of data collected from fresh-
man athletes who entered school
between 2003-04 and 2006-07 and
earned their degrees in six years.
More student-athletes than ever
before are earning their college
degrees, and we are gratied to see
our reform efforts impact the lives
of those we serve, NCAA
President Mark Emmert said in a
statement. We have even higher
expectations for the future, but we
are proud of the progress we have
made.
In a year that Emmert and the
NCAA have been under intense
scrutiny, the annual report gave
Emmert plenty to tout.
Eighty-two percent of athletes in
the 2006-07 freshman class earned
their diploma, matching a one-
year record. Graduation rates over
the four-year span, hit 81 percent,
also a one percentage point
increase and another record.
The one-year measuring stick
among black female athletes
improved from 76 percent in 2005-
06 to 78 percent in 2006-07.
And players in the Football
Bowl Subdivision topped last
years record-high of 70 percent by
hitting 71 percent thanks to a 4-
percentage point jump, to 84 per-
cent, among white FBS players and
2-percentage point jump, to 64
percent, among black FBS play-
ers.
Alabama, which has won the last
two BCS titles and is ranked No. 1
this season, nished at 73 percent,
ahead of footballs four-year aver-
age (70 percent). Notre Dame,
which lost in Januarys BCS title
game, had a grad rate of 94 percent.
There were similar trends in bas-
ketball.
Michigan, the mens runner-up,
and surprising Wichita State both
came in at 75 percent, both ahead
of the four-year average in their
sport (70). National champion
Louisville was third at 70 percent,
and only Syracuse (45) fell below
the national average.
Three of the four womens Final
Four teams also topped the spots
four-year average (85). Notre Dame
came in at 100 percent with
Connecticut and Louisville both at
92). Californias grad rate was 75
percent.
NCAA ofcials believe that aca-
demic reforms implemented over
the past two decades have made an
impact.

2014 Enclave: SUV is most popular Buick
By Ann M. Job
The best-selling Buick in America, the Enclave, is a
roomy, smooth-riding, sizable family SUV with top safety
scores and a novel center air bag that deploys between the
front seats in certain side crashes.
For 2014, the pleasantly styled Enclave sport utility
vehicle with standard, three rows of seats adds enhanced
audio and more safety features front collision alert and
lane departure warning.
With a premium feel and a not-too-premium price, and
with a record of average reliability, the Enclave is a recom-
mended buy of Consumer Reports magazine.
But government fuel economy ratings 17 miles per
gallon in city driving and 24 mpg on the highway for a V-6-
powered, front-wheel drive model put the Enclave at the
lower end of crossover SUVs in gasoline mileage.
Crossover SUVs have exterior styling and ride height simi-
lar to traditional, truck-based SUVs but use underlying car-
based platforms to provide a car-like ride and better fuel
economy.
Fortunately, base pricing for the Enclave has increased
just $325 from the 2013 model year.
Starting retail price is $39,665 for a base, 2014 Enclave
with 288-horsepower V-6, automatic transmission and
front-wheel drive. Starting manufacturers suggested retail
price, including destination charge, for a 2014 Enclave with
all-wheel drive is $41,665.
The base Enclaves come with cloth-covered seats, rear
park assist, rearview camera, power driver and front-passen-
ger seats, 18-inch wheels and power liftgate among the
standard features. Luxury appointments, such as leather
seats, Bose sound system and rear entertainment system,
come with upper-level trim packages.
The Enclave is one of three corporate siblings, all built
by parent company General Motors Co. with the same 288-
horsepower V-6 and six-speed automatic transmission. But
the Enclaves siblings are lower-priced and come standard
with different cloth-trimmed seats and 17-inch or different-
design 18-inch wheels, rear camera, manual liftgates and
manually adjustable front seats, among other things.
Specically, the 2014 Chevrolet Traverse has a starting
MSRP, including destination charge, of $31,670 for a front-
wheel drive model. The 2014 GMC Acadia has a starting
retail price of $35,440 for a front-wheel drive model.
Starting retail price is $39,665 for a base,2014 Enclave with 288-horsepower V-6,automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.
Starting manufacturers suggested retail price,including destination charge,for a 2014 Enclave with all-wheel drive is $41,665.
See ENCLAVE, Page 19
AUTO 19
While the Enclave is priced higher than its siblings, its
priced below other large, luxury-branded, crossover SUVs
with three rows of seats.
For example, the 2014 Audi Q7 starts at $48,595 with tur-
bocharged, 280-horsepower, gasoline V-6 and Audis eight-
speed, Tiptronic automatic transmission. But leather-
trimmed seats, power adjustable and heated front seats, park
system with rear sensors, power liftgate, premium audio
with 11 speakers and all-wheel drive are among the Q7s
standard equipment.
U.S. sales of the Enclave are up nearly 12 percent so far
during calendar 2013, to 46,384. This tops all other
Buicks, including the cars.
Enclave buyers get an SUV with upscale styling, inside
and out, because in contrast to the plainer-looking Traverse
and blocky , the Enclave looks nicely dressed up.
Best of all, even adults can sit in the third row in the 16.8-
foot-long Enclave, as the at-cushioned, rearmost seats
offer an impressive 37.8 inches of headroom. And the mid-
dle person in the third row can extend legs between the two,
second-row captains chairs in seven-passenger models.
True, the third-row seat cushion is short, so theres not
complete thigh support, and the middle person doesnt have
a head restraint. But theres good access to the third row, and
accommodating seat tracks for the rst and second rows
mean legroom can be arranged fairly for all. There are nice-
ly sized grab handles at the door openings, too.
When cargo, not passengers, is the priority, the Enclave
can provide a commodious 115.2 cubic feet of room aft of
the front seats. Even keeping the second row for passengers
preserves up to 68.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind these
seats, and thats as much as some smaller SUVs offer with
just front seats saved for passengers.
Weighing more than 4,920 pounds, the test Enclave had a
heavy, solid feel.
No wonder the federal government gave the 2014 Enclave
top, ve-out-of-ve stars in passenger protection in both
frontal and side crashes.
The new frontal collision alert provides early visual and
audible warnings of potential crash situations to help driv-
ers possibly avoid an accident. The new lane departure sys-
tem keeps a watch on the Enclave driver possibly wandering
into another cars lane.
Standard safety features include electronic stability con-
trol, traction control and seven air bags the seventh
being the one that deploys in the middle of the front seats
and keeps front passengers from being tossed to the side too
far in certain side crashes. Thank goodness a rearview cam-
era and rear park assist system, with audible beeps, are stan-
dard, too.
The metal pillars at the sides of the rear windows of the
Enclave are thick, and the rear glass on the liftgate sits up
high, making it difcult to see whats behind.
The smallish turning circle for such a large vehicle was a
pleasant surprise.
While there was some weight shift from one side to the
other in curves and corners, the Enclave overall rode com-
fortably, though not rmly. It was noticeably smooth on
highways, where the suspension soaked up most all road
bumps. The interior was quiet.
But fuel economy, with mostly city driving, was poor at
14.8 mpg. This is less than the governments estimate of
16/22 mpg for an all-wheel drive Enclave like the tester.
The 3.6-liter, dual overhead cam V-6 delivered power
steadily, though it could take a bit of time to rev up. Peak
torque of 270 foot-pounds comes on at 3,400 rpm. At times,
transmission shifts were noticeable.
Some nits: The old-style, clickity blinker sounds, the
lack of push-button start on the $50,000 test vehicle, awk-
ward-to-reach clothes hooks and an off-putting, industrial-
size rubber button to close the power liftgate.

Feds wont investigate
Tesla electric car fire
DETROIT U.S. auto safety regulators
have decided not to open a formal investi-
gation into the Oct. 2 re that damaged a
Tesla electric car near Seattle.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration said Thursday theres no
indication at this time that the re was
caused by a safety defect or that there was
any violation of federal vehicle safety stan-
dards.
The agency said in a statement that it
reviewed all available data and will continue
to check consumer complaints and other
information. ANHTSAspokesman said that
he could not comment beyond the state-
ment.
The Tesla Model S hit road debris on a
freeway in Kent, Wash. The debris punctured
an underbody shield and the battery, which
is mounted beneath the passenger compart-
ment. The crash touched off a fire that
engulfed the front of the car. The driver
escaped without injury and reghters put
out the ames.
Experts say when a battery cell is pierced,
it can cause a short circuit that can lead to
arcing and sparks that can touch off a re.
The re happened during the 16-day par-
tial government shutdown earlier this
month, delaying NHTSAs response.
Normally the agency would send investiga-
tive teams to such an event shortly after it
happens.
The fire became an Internet sensation
when witnesses posted a video of it. The
stock of Tesla Motors Inc., which is based
in Palo Alto, Calif., tumbled as word of the
re spread.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the car, which
starts at $70,000, apparently was impaled
by a metal object. Musk, in a blog post,
defended the cars battery technology and
said res are more common in conventional
gas-powered vehicles.
The CEO said a curved metal object on the
road was apparently to blame. The large
objects shape led to a powerful hit on the
underside of the vehicle, punching a 3-inch
hole through an armor plate that protects
the battery.
The car properly contained the blaze in
one section of the battery, the company
said.
Tesla hires Apple
engineer to develop new cars
DETROIT Electric car maker Tesla
Motors has hired Apple Inc.s chief Mac
engineer to lead new vehicle development.
Doug Field led the development of new
products in his ve years at Apple, includ-
ing the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and
iMac. Field began his career as an engineer
at Ford Motor Co. and also spent nine years
at Segway, where he was the vice president
of design and engineering.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in a statement
that Fields experience in consumer elec-
tronics and automotive engineering makes
him an ideal t. Field will be Teslas vice
president of vehicle programs, which is a
new position.
Tesla currently sells the Model S sedan.
Its developing a small SUV, the Model X,
which is due out next year.
Ford increases full-year
guidance after strong 3Q
DEARBORN, Mich. Ford proved it in
North America. Now its proving it in the
rest of the world: New vehicles, combined
with cost cuts, can turn the business
around.
The second-largest U.S. automaker raised
its full-year prot guidance Thursday as it
reported a strong third quarter that saw
improving sales worldwide. Fords regions
outside North America saw a combined
prot for the rst time in two years, and
every region reported market share increas-
es.
The breadth, the depth and the quality of
the growth is very exciting for us, Fords
Chief Financial Ofcer Bob Shanks told
reporters Thursday morning.
Dearborn-based Ford Motor Co. earned
$1.3 billion, or 31 cents per share, down
14 percent from a year ago. The decline was
due to special items, including a $250 mil-
lion charge for restructuring in Europe and a
$145 million charge for a pension buyout
program in the U.S.

LOS ANGELES If the
Jackass movies have always
spit exuberantly in the face of
age and mortality, its tting
that co-creators Johnny
Knoxville, Spike Jonze and
Jeff Tremaine have now given
us one devoted to Knoxvilles
octogenarian alter ego, Irving
Zisman. Strangely touching,
too, given that the Jackass
boys are all in their 40s now
and still throwing caution to
the wind.
Strapping a loose narrative
framework onto the series
patented stunts and candid-
camera gags, Jackass
Presents: Bad Grandpa
shows theres still comic life
in this decade-old franchise
provided, of course, the sight
of a senior citizen getting his
penis caught in a vending
machine is the kind of thing
that brings a smile to your
face.
Originally introduced during
the nal season of Jackass
on MTV, the Zisman character
has been a mainstay ever
since, sometimes paired with
Jonzes nonagenarian prosti-
tute character Gloria for max-
imum elder-care chaos. In
Bad Grandpa, Irvings fami-
ly is eshed out to include a
crack-addict daughter
(Georgina Kates), who, on the
verge of returning to prison,
tasks Irving with transporting
his 8-year-old grandson
(Jackson Nicoll) to the boys
deadbeat father (Greg Harris)
in North Carolina.
Thats the plot as far as it
goes, which is really just a
device for putting Knoxville

IN GRAND STYLE: CELEBRATIONS
IN KOREAN ART DURING THE
JOSEON DYNASTY. The legacy of
Koreas Joseon dynasty (13921910)
among the worlds longest continues to
resonate in Korean culture today. In Grand
Style: Celebrations in Korean Art during the
Joseon Dynasty, at the Asian Art Museum in
San Francisco, features more than 110
important objects (several ofcially desig-
nated as Korean treasures by Koreas
Cultural Heritage Administration) that bring
to life the dynastys grand festivals in
which milestones like birthdays, weddings
and political appointments were celebrated
with elaborate rites that sometimes
involved thousands of participants and con-
tinued for days. Dance, music, cuisine and
procession all had parts in the joyous fes-
tivities, while rules were prescribed that
governed practically every detail of the cel-
ebrations.
Through the artworks, In Grand Style
explores four key themes: what it meant to
be a king during the Joseon dynasty; royal
processions and banquets; the power of
women at the royal court; and the lives and
celebrations of the Joseon dynastys peo-
ple. Highlights include an ornate palanquin
measuring more than 8 feet long used
for carrying a king; a book of praise for
King Taejo, made entirely of jade and
inscribed with gold; a 64-foot-long hand-
scroll depicting King Jeongjos famous
procession to his fathers tomb; a royal
throne; ceremonial robes; kings and
queens seals; and protocol books with
paintings of royal banquets. The art high-
lighted in the exhibition is lent by numer-
ous institutions in Korea and the United
States, primarily the National Museum of
Korea and the National Palace Museum of
Korea.

AMERICAS CUP: SAILING FOR
INTERNATIONAL SPORTS GREAT-
EST TROPHY 1851- 1937, AT THE
SAN FRANCISCO AIRPORT MUSE-
UM. 2013 is not the rst year that naval
technology has brought racing victory to
the United States. In the waning evening
light on Aug. 22, 1851, after more than 10-
and-a-half hours at sea, a radical looking
black-hulled schooner with steeply raked
masts sailed into the port of Cowes on
Englands Isle of Wight and into his-
tory as
t h e
f a s t e s t
yacht in
t h e
world. The aptly named America, represent-
ing the New York Yacht Club and, symboli-
cally, the United States, had just defeated 15
of the Royal Yacht Squadrons fastest yachts
in a 53-nautical-mile race around the island.
Her stunning victory unseated Britain as the
worlds undisputed maritime power and
announced the young countrys arrival as a
leader of yacht design and racing. Americas
owners sold her to an English nobleman
just ten days later, but they returned to New
York with the contests prize a silver tro-
phy the Royal Yacht Squadron dubbed the
Hundred-Sovereign Cup. The trophy was
promptly renamed Americas Cup to
honor the victorious schooner, and was
deeded to the New York Yacht Club to be held
as a perpetual challenge cup for friendly
competition between nations.
Americas Cup: Sailing for International
Sports Greatest Trophy 18511937, at the
San Francisco Airport Museum, displays
competition related items drawn from the
collections of the Herreshoff Marine
Museum and Americas Cup Hall of Fame,
Bristol, Rhode Island; the Mariners
Museum, Newport News, Virginia; and
Mystic Seaport: Museum of America and the
Sea, Mystic, Connecticut. The exhibit
focuses on the rst 86 years of this friend-
ly competition, which is now rmly estab-
lished as much more than a mere contest
between the worlds fastest yachts.
Victories bring participants fame and glory,
while defeats often result in national shame
and unspeakable heartbreak. Americas Cup
history has been written by the worlds
wealthiest and most powerful men funding
and managing Cup campaigns; brilliant
designers unveiling creations that con-
founded contemporaries while making quan-
tum leaps in yachting technology; and dar-
ing helmsmen who, with guile and skill,
pushed these extraordinary yachts to the
limits of their capacities in their quests to
win the cup. The winner-take-all nal race
on San Francisco Bay in 2013 almost cer-
tainly ensured that Americas Cup racing
will continue to be contested in yachts that
are considered extreme in both size and
expense, and that inspire awe and wonder.
Americas Cup: Sailing for International
Sports Greatest Trophy 18511937 is on
display pre-security at the International
Terminal at San Francisco Airport. There is
no charge to view the exhibition, which
runs through Feb. 2014.

NEWYORK The rst act of the Oscar
season is playing out like an episode of
Survivor.
Several anticipated lms planned to be
released in the heart of awards season have
picked up stakes and moved to 2014.
Changes often happen in the highly con-
tentious fall movie season, but rarely has
there been an exodus like this.
Most recently, George Clooneys World
War II drama The Monuments Men, previ-
ously dated for Dec. 18, was moved by Sony
to early next year, after the end-of-year eli-
gibility cutoff. Earlier postponed was
Bennett Millers brother drama
Foxcatcher, with Channing Tatum and
Steve Carell; Grace of Monaco, starring
Nicole Kidman as Grace Kelly; and James
Greys The Immigrant, starring Joaquin
Phoenix and Marion Cotillard.
Martin Scorseses The Wolf of Wall
Street is also up in the air, widely expected
to move from a long-planned November
release to Christmas. Scorsese is racing to
edit his ambitious Wall Street epic, starring
Leonardo DiCaprio, in time for release this
year. Paramount declined to comment on its
plans for The Wolf of Wall Street, but the
studio announced Thursday that its spy fran-
chise lm Jack Ryan is moving from Dec.
25 to Jan. 17.
So why the game of musical chairs? The
holiday season is a packed one, so the mar-
gins for capturing box-ofce and awards
momentum are thin. And three Oscar
favorites have already rmly established
themselves: Steve McQueens hugely
acclaimed slavery epic 12 Years a Slave;
the global box-ofce juggernaut and techni-
cal marvel Gravity; and the Tom Hanks
Somali pirate docudrama Captain
Phillips.
For now, the favorite is 12 Years a
Slave, which picked up a leading three
nominations from the Gotham Independent
Film Awards on Thursday. Based on the
account of Solomon Northup (played by
Chiwetel Ejiofor), the lm bears the weight
of being a landmark a movie that depicts
American slavery more faithfully than it
ever has been before. Henry Louis Gates Jr.
has called it the best lm about slavery
ever made from the point of view of a
slave.
Its going to go on its own journey and
well see where that ends up, says Ejiofor.
The important thing is that people should
see it with their own eyes if theres hyper
buzz about it. I think this is a deeply
involved story about a man who had a pro-
found experience. I was deeply moved by
his book and his experience, and I feel like
outside of anything else, that should be
given its place and its own sort of room.
Gravity has been a different kind of sen-
sation, leading the box ofce for three con-
secutive weeks in addition to nearly univer-
sal raves from critics. Alfonso Cuarons lm
and 12 Years a Slave are currently the con-
sensus top two Oscar contenders, according
to a recent Gurus o Gold poll of 15 Oscar
prognosticators and film writers at
MovieCityNews.com.
But the reasons for the release date
changes have less to do with the seeming
lock on awards than with the individual
challenges of each lm. Clooney has said
the extensive visual effects for The
Monuments Men needed time for comple-
tion. Sony Pictures Classics said
Foxcatcher, too, needed more time to n-
ish. No reason was given for the Weinstein
Co.s postponement of The Immigrant,
which premiered at the Cannes Film
Festival in May.
Grace of Monaco is moving to March,
Harvey Weinstein has said, because its
just not ready. Director Olivier Dahan has
vehemently disputed that, telling French
newspaper Liberation that he considers the
lm nished and strongly disapproves of
the cut Weinstein is seeking. (The
Weinstein Co. declined to comment.)
A move to early next year, as The
Monuments Men is doing, signals a lack
of faith in awards attention. While the holi-
day season is the one of the most presti-
gious and lucrative times of the year to
release a lm, the early winter months are
typically considered the doldrums of the
Oscar season starts with a game of musical chairs
The important thing is that people should see it with their own eyes if theres
hyper buzz about it. I think this is a deeply involved story about a man who had
a profound experience. I was deeply moved by his book and his experience, and I feel
like outside of anything else, that should be given its place and its own sort of room.

WEEKEND JOURNAL 23
By David Bratman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Two of the Peninsulas most
accomplished musical organiza-
tions, the Masterworks Chorale,
directed by Bryan Baker, and the
Peninsula Symphony, directed by
Mitchell Sardou Klein, are collab-
orating on their mutual season-
opening concert this weekend. The
two groups are offering a distinct-
ly celebratory program.
The concert will be performed
twice, at Capuchino High School
in San Bruno on Friday, and at
Flint Center in Cupertino on
Saturday. Both performances are at
8 p.m. Maestro Klein will conduct.
The most unusual work on the
program is the Choral Fantasy
written by Ludwig van Beethoven
to conclude a benet concert in
1808 because he didnt think his
Fifth and Sixth symphonies,
which also premiered at that con-
cert, were grandiose enough for an
ending. The Choral Fantasy
begins like a piano concerto, with
a long solo to be played by the
principal guest artist, Irish pianist
John OConor. Then the orchestra
introduces a cheerful theme, taken
up by the chorus in the last few
minutes of the piece, that strongly
foreshadows the Ode to Joy from
the Ninth Symphony, which
Beethoven wrote more than a
decade later.
The Masterworks Chorale will
also be singing in George Frederic
Handels Zadok the Priest, an
anthem with a Biblical text refer-
ring to the coronation of King
Solomon. Handel wrote this in
1727 as a musical contribution to
the coronation of the King of
Great Britain, George II. Like the
Beethoven piece, it foreshadows
something better-known: the
Messiah oratorio, which Handel
wrote over a decade later. Listeners
who enjoy the large festive choral
pieces in Messiah will like this.
Thats all that the Chorale is
singing, but its not the end of the
concerts celebration of the
British monarchy. The orchestra
will play an extended march,
Crown Imperial by Sir William
Walton, rst performed at the coro-
nation of George VI in 1937. At
the time, Walton was known as an
urbane, cosmopolitan, even sar-
donic composer. His unexpected
turn into hearty, sincere Elgar-
esque patriotism, once again, fore-
shadows later work by the com-
poser, in this case his music for
Laurence Oliviers film of
Shakespeares Henry V.
Theres one more short celebra-
tory work on the program, the
Academic Festival Overture, one
of the most cheerful works by the
famously grumpy Johannes
Brahms. Awarded an honorary
degree by a university in 1880,
Brahms responded only with a
postcard, until a friend convinced
him he really ought to write a piece
of music for the university and
visit to conduct it. So he put
together this potpourri of student
drinking songs in a mock-academ-
ic style.
One more work, the longest on
the program, completes the
evening, the Piano Concerto in A
Minor by Edvard Grieg. One of the
best-known and most popular of
all piano concertos, this three-
movement charmer will feature
John OConor as soloist.
After the shock of nding, early
this month, that almost its entire
endowment and operating funds
had disappeared from its bank
accounts, the Peninsula
Symphony is regrouping and car-
rying on. Emergency fundraising
has generated enough support to
fund at least the beginning of the
planned season
The Symphonys next concert
will be Nov. 22 and 24 at
Stanfords Bing Concert Hall,
playing music by the Swiss-
American composer Ernest Bloch.
After the ruggedly neo-classical
Concerto Grosso No. 1, the
Symphony will team up with bari-
tone Stephen Saxon and the
Stanford Symphonic Chorus for
Blochs Sacred Service, the rst
large-scale setting of Jewish litur-
gical texts by a major classical
composer.
As for the Masterworks Chorale,
its next concert will be Nov. 9 and
10 at Woodside High School, fea-
turing Felix Mendelssohns mas-
sive Biblical oratorio Elijah,
with baritone Kirk Eichelberger as
soloist.

and the cherubic, foul-mouthed Nicoll (The
Fighter) in a car together and letting them
wreak their inspired havoc across state
lines. A couple of the movies best and
most outrageous payoffs come right up
front, when Irving enlists a couple of
unwitting furniture movers to help him load
the corpse of the late Mrs. Zisman
(Catherine Keener) into his car, then tries
to circumvent the road trip by simply UPS-
ing little Billy all the way to Raleigh.
The m.o. of Jackass has always been
the comedy of physical pain a Three
Stooges for the X-Games era married to
a kind of anarchic street theater. Knoxville
and company delight at nding ways to
make life veer off its neatly ordered path
and in capturing the ummoxed reactions of
those who bear witness. Here, they take an
added glee in playing off social mores con-
cerning children and the elderly how
they should be treated, and when they
shouldnt be held responsible for their
actions (as when Irving and Billy eat their
way through a mini-mart, then make a run
for it).
Even with Knoxville buried under layers
of latex, his willingness to do anything for
a laugh is a gift that keeps on giving,
whether hes getting smashed between the
jaws of a spring-loaded adjustable bed or
hurled through a plate-glass window by a
malfunctioning strip-mall kiddie ride. But
the most talked-about sequence from Bad
Grandpa seems likely to be Irvings
impromptu bootie shaking (complete with
low-hanging elastic scrotum) on the oor
of an all-black male strip club.
Bad Grandpa isnt as sustained a piece
of work as the earlier Jackass pics, and it
can even seem tame in light of the more
outrageous bits in Borat and Bruno
perhaps a sign that Knoxville et al. are ever
so slightly maturing. Too much of the lm
gets bogged down in Irving making lewd
passes at uninterested younger women (and
one possibly interested drive-thru atten-
dant), but even at its low ebb, the movie
effuses an infectious, mischief-making joy.
After spending most of the movie as the
relative straight man, Nicoll proves him-
self every bit as fearless as his battle-
scarred mentor during a drag-kiddie-pageant
nale thats like tobacco juice in the eye of
Little Miss Sunshine.
Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa, a
Paramount release presented with MTV
Films, is rated R by the Motion Picture
Association of America for strong crude
and sexual content throughout, language,
some graphic nudity and brief drug use.

moviegoing year.
But it also means much more room at the
box office. In late December, The
Monuments Men would have had to com-
pete with, presumably, The Wolf of Wall
Street, Ben Stillers The Secret Life of
Walter Mitty, August: Osage County,
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues and
the 3-D action film 47 Ronin.
The competition will be far less stiff
when The Monuments Men opens next
year. It will hope to follow the playbook
of a few other recent awards season emi-
grants: Scorseses Shutter Island
($294.8 million worldwide after a Feb. 18
debut in 2010) and The Great Gatsby
($348.8 million worldwide with a release
last May).
Aside from The Wolf of Wall Street,
awards contenders yet to premiere include
David O. Russells Abscam drama
American Hustle and the Disney tale of
the making of Mary Poppins, Saving
Mr. Banks. Riding in with acclaim from
film festivals will be the Coen brothers
Greenwich Village folk tale Inside Llewyn
Davis, Alexander Paynes Midwest road
trip Nebraska, Spike Jonzes futuristic
romance Her and the Texas HIV drama
Dallas Buyers Club.

ping the Band-Aid off camp. I dont want to
leave any doubt.
The superintendent said he doesnt see
value in adding a third-party investigator
since the counsels future training program
is thorough, but wasnt opposed to the hire.
Well do whatever it takes to make sure
people understand that nothing illegal went
on; I just dont believe youre going to get
anything more from that third party, Baker
said. I think to be honest, we have let cer-
tain people in the community dene your
(the board) actions since then.
The issue has gone on for way too long,
said board President Adam Rak, adding the
third-party investigator could put the issue
to rest.
One board member was not in support of
idea of hiring a third-party investigator.
Were bringing in someone else who
knows nothing about us, Trustee Seth
Rosenblatt said. But Im going to vote for
whatever it is all of you want to do, Im
happy to support that.
The district had asked the county counsel
to present a recommended framework for
this review, timeline and report, and took up
the question of whether to involve an addi-
tional third-party investigator.
In addition, Deputy County Counsel
Kathryn Meola, who represents San Carlos,
recommended ve areas of training: scal
practices, bond spending procedures, order-
ing warrants to be paid, best practices for
governance and improved communication
with the public. The best practices for gov-
ernance include reviewing closed session
acceptable agenda listings, closed session
procedure, conicts of interest and ethics.
Training will be for new board members,
post-Nov. 5 election. Fiscal training and
bond spending and practices would be due in
December and January would be for gover-
nance training.
Atimeline of the events leading up to the
loan authorization involves a contract and
performance evaluation of the superintend-
ent, timing of the offer and loan funding and
a 100 percent hindsight analysis.
Early this month, former board president
Beth Hunkapiller went so far as to step
down from the board because of the situa-
tion. At the same Sept. 26 meeting at which
she resigned, the trustees voted 3-2 to
approve staff training as a result of the loan.
Hunkapiller was dissatised with the deci-
sion to not go beyond training and wanted a
full review and timeline of the loan process.
In the past, Baker said for the past couple
of years he has been looking at moving
from Redwood City to live in the city of
which he is superintendent and so his son
could walk to school with his friends. The
one-year loan, that comes with a 2.65 per-
cent interest rate, has $2,870.83 a month
payments. There is also a penalty of 4 per-
cent of the monthly amount due if any pay-
ment is made after the 15th of the month in
which it is due.
In other board business, trustees discussed
the current naming of school facilities pol-
icy.
Naming facilities after people is a really
bad idea, said Rosenblatt. Its done so
infrequently that picking one person is an
exclusionary process, Rosenblatt said.
Its a monumental waste of time and
frankly insulting.
Elliott was against naming schools con-
nected with commercial products, but still
wants to see more input from the communi-
t y. If the school district were in tough budg-
et times, Rak said it might be good to con-
sider the idea of naming schools after com-
mercial products.

NEW YORK In Seduced and
Abandoned, Alec Baldwin and James
Toback present a portrait of todays movie
business and an elegy to what it once was.
In person, Baldwins even more candid,
venting on tasteless studio executives,
the pay for actors and the fetid septic
tank of the movie business.
Baldwin and Toback knocked around the
Cannes Film Festival last year, document-
ing the humbling process of Hollywood
deal-making and trying to get financing
for a film. Baldwin, whose movie career
has largely taken a back seat to TV (he has
followed his Emmy-winning run on 30
Rock with his recently launched MSNBC
talk show, Up Late With Alec Baldwin),
calls making the film a blitz of celebri-
ty interviews and yacht visits along the
French Riviera one of the best times
of my life.
Currently playing in select theaters
before airing Monday on HBO, the film is
timely, coming amid a year of much debate
about the state of moviemaking. In an
interview, Baldwin had plenty to say on
the subject.
AP: Though you have several
f i l ms i n t he works, you ve suggest-
ed before that you may be done wi th
t he movi es . Are you?
Bal dwi n: You wind up not having any
faith in it, in terms of having a career at it.
Everyone wants you to turn to a speech
that Lucas and Spielberg gave two very,
very seasoned people in the business who
talk about the business model of studio
movies collapsing. What I want to say is:
The business model in terms of actors
making a living at it is collapsing because
you cant get paid to make a movie.
Everybody does TV because youre not out
there having to kill yourself to get an
audience the way you do in the movie busi-
ness. People I work with, they want you to
become their partner in raising money.
They want you to become their partner in
collapsing their fees. They want you to
become their partner, now, in selling the
movie. They want you on a plane going to
festivals and youre on the phone with
reporters all the time. The amount of work
outside the shooting of the film has
become absolutely unconscionable. ... All
the fun of it is gone. You talk it to death.
AP: Seduced and Abandoned
comes at a ti me of great handwring-
i ng over the future of ci nema.
Bal dwi n: It was tough financially.
Then it was very tough financially. Then it
was unbearable financially. And now its
unbearable financially and creatively. For
the most part. There are exceptions. 12
Years a Slave. There are movies that come
along that are wonderful films. The movie
Gravity is a box-office success.
Captain Phillips is a good movie. There
are good movies that come along. It just
seems that the opportunity to make a good
movie, if you do get to make one, takes an
extraordinary amount of luck or an
extraordinary amount of fortitude.
AP: Bl ue Jasmi ne, the Woody
Al l en fi l m i n whi ch you co-starred,
was excel l ent .
Bal dwi n: But Woodys in his own uni-
verse. When what youre starting off with
is written by Woody Allen, you have a
leg up on everyone else.
AP: What needs to change?
Bal dwi n: The principle reason movies
fall apart is that you dont have a good
director. The most anemic guild in all of
the business is the Directors Guild. There
are thousands of good actors out there
waiting for a job. There are so many
unproduced scripts that are good. The real
dilemma in the business today:
There are not enough good
directors. Theres an
ocean of mediocre
directors.
AP: Did you learn
anythi ng new about
t he f i l m bus i nes s
making Seduced and
Abandoned?
Bal dwi n: You see in the
business this fetid septic
tank filled with all these peo-
ple, and then you turn around
and theres Bertolucci,
theres Scorsese.
They dont let
that get in their
way. They have
their stresses.
They have
their own
c ha l l e nge s .
It is not a
boulevard of
g r e e n
lights for
t h e s e

ple, at

Theyve
got their
c o mp r o -
mi ses. . . .
The people
who are the
heads of produc-
tion of all the studios,
across the board, they
dont know anything
about films. Nothing.
They know things
about selling films.
AP: Are you opt i mi s t i c
about anythi ng then?
Bal dwi n: I say to myself:
Thank god for (12 Years a
Slave director) Steve
McQueen. Right as youre
about to collapse from a kind
of cinematic starvation and
dehydration, along comes
McQueen. Along comes
Alexander Payne. Along
comes Wes Anderson.
Along comes (Paul

nesses and promote amenities. The
TCP sets the framework and will attract
interest, however we need to be sensi-
tive to our residents and plan intelli-
gently for circulation, communication
and connectivity throughout the city.
Andrew Mason: We should focus
on science and technology related
development, such as biotechnology,
clean energy- and biofuels-based labo-
ratory type spaces. In addition, city
leaders must align the current Caltrain
infrastructure project to effectively
revitalize the downtown area, bringing
in new businesses and a sense of civic-
oriented community involvement.
Marty Medina: I look forward to
the Transit Corridors Plans implemen-
tation, however, I prefer home and
condo ownership instead of rental
properties. San Bruno is a wonderful
place to live. If somethings built,
people will come. However, we must
always remember the impact to exist-
ing neighborhoods.
Rico Medina: The city is restricted
by voter-approved height limits. I
would like to see a pilot project with
commercial and residential use in the
area of the new train station at San
Mateo and San Bruno avenues to
require voter approval. Once this was
successful, future projects would be
more feasible.
Peopl e compl ai n about t he
qual i ty of the ci tys streets and
si dewal ks. Is the ci ty respond-
i ng wel l enough?
Ken Ibarra: Repair of our streets
and sidewalks is a priority. As a sub-
committee member for these improve-
ments, I am focused on assuring ade-
quate funding and timely repairs to
improve safety and effective circula-
tion. We must have a detailed plan and
schedule that our residents can under-
stand so they can anticipate improve-
ments.
Andrew Mason: We should focus
efforts on developing an organized
software generated tracking system to
track and prioritize maintenance-relat-
ed requests from residents. This will
help us evaluate how we are respond-
ing to residents needs and identify
areas of growth in terms of providing
better service to our residential cus-
tomer base.
Marty Medina: No. The backlog
of necessary repairs continues to grow
each year and we fall a little more
behind. As a street ages, there is a
point where the maintenance costs
drastically increases into full recon-
struction costs. We need to be innova-
tive and modify our street and sidewalk
repair programs.
Rico Medina: The condition of
streets and sidewalks makes a big
impression in terms of physical
appearance and this issue is of critical
importance to our citizens. We need to
ensure that our resources are distributed
equitably from city limit to city limit
in an inclusive approach going for-
ward.

ronmental impact report clears the way
for Gilead to begin to put together
plans, said Assistant City Manager
Steve Toler. The Foster City zoning
map will have to be modied for the
area known as Vintage Park to allow up
to 2,500,600 square feet of ofce, lab-
oratory and parking facilities, accord-
ing to a staff report.
The only agreement in place
between the city and Gilead is for its
South Campus, on which it is currently
allowed to develop, Toler said. Gilead
has recently completed a four-story
laboratory. It will need to demolish
some of the existing buildings on the
site as it hopes to build a second lab
within the next 18 months, Toler said.
Gilead must meet certain require-
ments in that report. Alot of it had to
do with trafc and mitigation, such as
increasing their employee shuttle
service, Toler said.
Finalizing plans and construction is
going to be a long process,
Councilman Steve Okamoto said.
Okamoto is concerned about the
amount of trafc that will result from
Gileads expansion. Gilead has assured
the council it will take measures to
mitigate trafc by pairing with shuttle
services, Okamoto said.
I am still skeptical, when you talk
about 5,000 employees, its going to
create a lot of trafc, Okamoto said.
The Peninsula Traffic Congestion
Relief Alliance assists large corpora-
tions by providing shuttle services to
employees. The alliance has stated it
plans to purchase more shuttles in the
future to be able to accommodate the
influx of personnel in the area,
Okamoto said.
Construction at such a large scale
will undoubtedly result in noise,
Okamoto said, however, it would be
temporary. The council passed the
report by a unanimous vote anticipat-
ing Gilead will comply with its envi-
ronmental requirements, Toler said.
Encouraging employees to bike to
work, increasing the amount of bike
lockers, painting bike routes and pro-
viding showers are other ways Toler
suggested it could reduce its impact.
Gilead is still a long ways from com-
pleting its high-tech campus; it will
have to go through the Community
Development Department, specify its
plans and present them to the council.
We are happy with Gilead and we are
wonderful partners with them,
Okamoto said. Were glad they made
Foster City their headquarters.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT For South County Community Health Center, Inc,
dba Ravenswood Family Health Center
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act, the Council
on Environmental Quality regulations for implementing NEPA (44 CFR
Parts 1500 through 1508) and the HHS General Administration Manual
Part 30 Environmental Protection (February 25, 2000), HRSA has de-
termined that the Ravenswood Family Health Center project proposed
by South County Community Health Center, Inc. will have no signifi-
cant adverse impact on the quality of the human environment. As a re-
sult of this FONSI, an Environmental Impact Statement will not be pre-
pared.
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the De-
partment of Health and Human Services (HHS) provides discretionary
grant and cooperative agreement awards to support health centers ex-
pand their capacity to provide primary and preventive health care serv-
ices to medically underserved populations nationwide.
South County Community Health Center, Inc. has applied for HRSA

an approximately 35,200 square foot, two-story medical clinic building
at 1885 and 1891 Bay Road and 2519 Pulgas Avenue in the City of
East Palo Alto. Associated site improvements will be constructed in-
cluding two new driveways onto Bay Road and Pulgas Avenue, sur-
face parking, new utilities, storm drain facilities, new lighting, and land-
scaping. The new health center will replace the commercial building
and residences currently on the project site. The applicant has submit-
ted an Environmental Assessment (EA) that documents impacts of the
proposed action. This EA is incorporated by reference into this FON-
SI.
Additional project information is contained in the Environmental As-
sessment for this project, which is on file at the following address for
public examination upon request between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5

remodel even without the councils future
approval.
I have not seen any change in the pro-
posal even though we have discussed
changes wed like to see, said Councilman
Pradeep Gupta. I nd this to be a very neg-
ative starting point. I dont see any
progress on the discussions we had on hir-
ing the local workforce.
The Centennial Village mixed-use project
would be a transit-oriented development
consisting of a 220,000-square-foot com-
mercial area, with 42,400 square feet of
retail space on the ground oor, 35,300
square feet of ofce space on the second
oor and 284 residential units on the upper
oors, all located at the corner of Spruce
Road and El Camino Real in South San
Francisco on a 14.5-acre site. The ground
oor tenant spaces would include a 58,000-
square-foot Safeway, 30,000 square feet of
commercial retail space, a 36,000-square-
foot health club and 21,000 square feet of
smaller commercial tenant spaces. The plan
states that housing will only be built when
theres an opportune market.
Some residents came to speak out against
the project. One citizen called the plan a
colossal mistake, citing potential contam-
inants from the buildings, overpriced hous-
ing and the destruction of already nice prop-
erties.
Additionally, William Nack, executive
ofcer with the San Mateo County Building
Trades Council, was concerned the plan
doesnt require workers make prevailing
wages, and he opposes the plan.
The developer, William T. Mitchell of WT
Mitchell Group Inc., said the plan is the cul-
mination of six years of effort and that when
Safeway opens, there will be a good deal of
union workers being employed in the area.
Weve set aside money for union work-
ers, Mitchell said. It is smart develop-
ment. We hope it will become a catalyst to
spark the redevelopment of El Camino
Real.
Things got heated when Mayor Pro Tem
Karyl Matsumoto questioned if the develop-
ers would pay prevailing wages.
Were willing to work with unions and
ensure a greater number of union jobs,
Mitchell said, but didnt guarantee that there
would be prevailing wages.
Councilman Richard Garbarino said he
sees promise in the development, but the
current plan is not satisfactory. There is no
commitment to senior housing or a recre-
ational space, he said.
We dont need housing someday, we need
it today, Garbarino said at the meeting. I
hear promises and I dont really see commit-
ment to hire local labor. You can shrug your
shoulders Mr. Mitchell, but I just dont see
it.
The city wanted to have the land devel-
oped, but not under these conditions, said
Mayor Pedro Gonzalez.
Councilman Mark Addiego said what the
council looked at two meetings ago was the
dream for this corner.
Im supremely disappointed with what
might end up there, he said. Really
though, I think the land owner loses. Aren-
ovation, and thats what we get for another
20-30 years, is not a good use of that land.
In other city business, the council voted to
approve an amendment for a contract between
the city and Meyers Nave to make City
Attorney Steve Mattas interim city manager
and successor agency executive director serv-
ices. Part of the amendment includes having
Jason Rosenberg provide interim city attor-
ney services, while Robin Donoghue would
provide interim successor agency general
counsel services. These changes will take
effect Nov. 2. Assistant City Manager Marty
Van Duyn is also leaving.

should have played harder.
She left her business ventures for four
months and used her savings to keep things
aoat when she was gone. She returned to
New York City for the season nale compe-
tition in early September, which coincided
with New York Fashion Week.
I was bleeding [financially], von
Bromssen said. I thought I would win. I
really did gamble everything by going on
the show.
Would she do it again?
I dont know yet, she said. My friends
say wait a year and youll see. Theyd have
to pay me a lot of money.
Moving forward, von Bromssen wants to
open a second store in San Francisco and
expand Camp Couture. Further, she is inter-
ested in an investor helping her move her
design work and business along.
The designer has been visiting market-
places to ask for advice on her work. Other
boutique owners and buyers go to the mar-
ketplaces. A small collection of her work,
with about 10 to 15 looks should be
released in February 2014 and another this
summer.
Prior to her time as a designer, von
Bromssen attended New York University,
receiving a degree in business, after switch-
ing from majoring in biology. She went on
to get a masters in fine arts from the
Academy of Art University in San Francisco
after losing her job following the Sept. 11,
2001, terrorist attacks. Art school was
never a viable option for her when she
was applying for undergraduate schools.
In her spare time, she runs and was a
model for ve years of her youth as well.
Philadelphia designer Dom Streater came
away with rst place on the reality televi-
sion show and will receive $150,000 in
prize money to launch her inaugural collec-
tion and a Lexus.
For more information about von
Bromssens store, visit redsquarebou-
tique.com and to learn about her Camp
Couture workshops, visit thecampcou-
ture.com. This was the 12th season of the
show, which was formerly on the Bravo
network.

Merkel: U.S. spying
has shattered allies trust
BRUSSELS European leaders united in
anger as they attended a summit overshad-
owed by reports of widespread U.S. spying
on its allies allegations German
Chancellor Angela Merkel said had shat-
tered trust in the Obama administration and
undermined the crucial trans-Atlantic rela-
tionship.
The latest revelations that the U.S.
National Security Agency swept up more
than 70 million phone records in France and
may have tapped Merkels own cellphone
brought denunciations from the French and
German governments.
Merkels unusually stern remarks
Thursday as she arrived at the European
Union gathering indicated she wasnt pla-
cated by a phone conversation she had
Wednesday with President Barack Obama, or
his personal assurances that the U.S. is not
listening in on her calls now.
We need trust among allies and partners,
Merkel told reporters in Brussels. Such
trust now has to be built anew. This is what
we have to think about.
Israel says new
settlement building coming soon
JERUSALEM A senior Israeli ofcial
said Thursday that his country will
announce new plans for West Bank settle-
ment construction in the coming months, a
day after Israels leader held lengthy talks
with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met
in Rome for seven hours with Kerry to dis-
cuss Irans nuclear program and also recent-
ly restarted peace talks.
The Palestinians consider settlements a
major obstacle to establishing a state that
includes the West Bank and east Jerusalem,
territories Israel captured from Jordan in the
1967 war. Israel has since built dozens of
settlements that are now home to about
550,000 Israelis. The Americans typically
criticize any new settlement construction
plans, calling them unhelpful to peace
efforts.
