Parrot missing for years
returns speaking Spanish
TORRANCE A pet parrot that
spoke with a British accent when it
disappeared from its home four years
ago has been reunited with its owner
and the bird now speaks Spanish.
The reunion was brought about by a
Southern California veterinarian who
mistook Nigel, an African gray par-
rot, for her own missing bird, the
Daily Breeze reported Sunday.
Teresa Mi cco t racked Ni gel s
microchip to Darren Chick, a Brit
who lives in Torrance.
I introduced myself and said, Have
you lost a bird? Micco told the
newspaper. He initially said, No.
But he thought I meant recently.
When she verified Chicks name
and said she had his African grey par-
rot, He looked at me like I was
crazy.
He said his bird went missing four
years earlier.
Li t t l e i s known about Ni gel s
whereabouts the past four years, but
Chick says the birds British accent
i s gone, and i t now chat t ers i n
Spanish.
Chi ck says l ast weeks reuni on
brought tears of joy to his eyes
despite the fact that Nigel bit him
when he first tried to pick him up.
Micco said the behavior was not
unusual and that Nigel would settle
back in soon enough.
Hes doing perfect, Chick told the
newspaper by the weeks end. Its
really weird. I knew it was him from
the minute I saw him.
Its the fifth parrot reunion facili-
tated by Micco, who has been run-
ning ads for her own missing bird for
nine months. That parrot, Benjamin,
flew the coop in February when it
darted out a door that was left open.
13-year-old identified as
mother of abandoned baby
MERCED Authorities in Central
California say they have identified a
13-year-old girl as the mother of a
newborn baby abandoned last week in
a trash bin.
Merced Police Capt. Tom Trindad
said Monday that investigators are
still collecting all the facts before
turning the case over to prosecutors,
who will decide if the girl faces crim-
inal charges or not. For now, the
young mother remains in the care of
authorities.
The hours-old baby girl was found
Thursday by a man looking for cans
and bottles in the trash bin near an
apartment complex in the city of
Merced.

A KFC employee helped rob the Daly City
restaurant by pretending to be a hostage of
an armed intruder wearing an animal mask,
according to prosecutors.
Adan Alberto Arellano, the current work-
er, and Danny Elijah Pita, who authorities
say was a former employee at the same KFC,
were both charged with two counts of rob-
bery and commercial burglary in the Oct. 8
incident.
Both men reportedly confessed to the
crime that prosecutors said they committed
so that Pita, 20, of San Francisco could buy
an engagement ring.
Arellano, 18, of Daly City, appeared in
court Friday while Pita, who posted
$50, 000 bail after his arrest, will be
arraigned at a later date. Arellano pleaded
not guilty and was sched-
uled for a preliminary
hearing Oct. 24. Bail was
upheld at $50, 000.
The robbery of the
Geneva Avenue restaurant
happened when the
employees were getting
ready to close. As the
assistant manger was
removing money from
the register to the safe with the front door
locked, Arellano approached with an armed
man later identified as Pita behind him. The
man, with what employees described as a
shotgun, was wearing either a black gorilla
or werewolf mask and ordered the assistant
manger to put the money in a bag. As he left
with $1, 000, the man ordered another
employee to give him money and everyone
to get on the ground.
A surveillance camera
connected the two men
because footage showed
Arellano propping up a
back door that the suspect
entered and, after the rob-
ber left, hiding a towel
that had been part of the
disguise, said District
Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
His demeanor was also strange,
Wagstaffe said.
Although witnesses reported the suspect
having a gun, Wagstaffe said police could
not find the weapon and therefore cant
prove that it was a real firearm.

STATE/NATION
President and
the midterms:
Whats at stake?
By Julie Pace
WASHINGTON For President
Barack Obama, the stark reality of
the looming midterm elections is
that the best outcome for his party
gets him nothing but two more
years of the status quo.
Two more years of a divided
Congress. Two more years bat-
tling a Republican-led House that
sees little overlap with the presi-
dents priorities. And two more
years that are likely to pass with-
out the kind of legacy-building
legislation that has eluded the
president throughout his second
term.
And yet to White House aides, it
sure beats the alternative a
Republican takeover of the
Senate.
Who sets the agenda in the
Senate matters in a big way, said
Dan Pfeiffer, Obamas senior
adviser. If Republicans take the
Senate, Pfeiffer predicted a dou-
bling down on the (Texas
Republican Sen. ) Ted Cruz, shut-
down, hostage-taking approach
to government.
The reality is that Obamas
advisers have low expectations
for passing major legislation
even if Democrats hang onto the
Senate. Thats been a struggle for
Obama ever since the GOP won the
House four years ago and will like-
ly get even harder as both parties
turn their attention toward the
2016 presidential election and
lawmakers get even more reluctant
to take on tough issues.
With three weeks until Election
Day, Republicans have a takeover
of Congress within their sights.
The party is likely to extend its
majority in the House and needs to
pick up just six seats to grab con-
trol of the Senate for the first time
in nearly a decade.
Obama enters the campaigns
homestretch with approval rat-
ings hovering near the lowest
point of his presidency, forcing
Democratic candidates to distance
themselves from their partys
leader. Losing control of the
Senate could cement the impres-
sion of a politically impotent,
lame-duck president more than
two years before the end of his
term.
First Kashkari ad says
Brown failed needy students
SACRAMENTO In his first
TV ad of the general election,
Republican gubernatorial candi-
date Neel Kashkari accuses Gov.
Jerry Brown of abandoning needy
students in failing California
schools and uses imagery that
depicts a child nearly drowning
before he is rescued by Kashkari.
The ad, which is scheduled to
begin airing statewide on Tuesday,
is related to a Los Angeles County
Superior Court ruling that found
Californias teacher tenure laws
unconstitutional because they
deprive some poor and minority
children of a quality education.
Every kid in every neighbor-
hood deserves a good education
and a chance for a better life,
Kashkari says in the spot. Jerry
Brown betrayed our kids to protect
his donors. When Im governor,
Ill fight for kids, not against
them.
The governors administration
has appealed the ruling and
Republicans have accused him and
other Democrats of siding with the
powerful California Teachers
Association, which gives mil-
lions to Democrats.
U.S. eyes sale of Waldorf
hotel to Chinese firm
WASHINGTON Concerned
about potential security risks, the
U.S. government is taking a close
look at last weeks sale of New
Yorks iconic Waldorf Astoria hotel
to a Chinese insurance company.
U.S. officials said Monday they
are reviewing the Oct. 6 purchase
of the Waldorf by the Beijing-based
Anbang Insurance Group, which
bought the hotel from Hilton
Worldwide for $1.95 billion. Terms
of the sale allow Hilton to run the
hotel for the next 100 years and
call for a major renovation that
officials say has raised eyebrows in
Washington, where fears of
Chinese eavesdropping and cyber
espionage run high.

The San Francisco International Airport, which has a longstanding relationship
with Belle Air Elementary School in San Bruno,over the years has provided resources
and staff volunteers for our school garden, fundraisers for the school and many
other projects.Most recently,SFO sponsored the painting of a mural in the entrance
way of the school working with students,families and staff to develop a theme,visual
features and overall layout.The chief artist was Robert Harris,who is the Curator of

Four California faults
primed for big quakes
By Ellen Knickmeyer
SAN FRANCISCO Three fault segments running
beneath Northern California and its roughly 15 million
people are overdue for a major earthquake, including one
section that lies near the dams and canals that supply much
of the states water, according to a geological study pub-
lished Monday.
The three fault segments and one other in the region are
loaded with enough tension to produce quakes of magnitude
6. 8 or greater, according to a geological study published
Monday.
They include the little-known Green Valley fault, which
lies near key dams and aqueducts northeast of San Francisco.
Underestimated by geologists until now, the fault running
between the cities of Napa and Fairfield is primed for a mag-
nitude-7. 1 quake, according to researchers from the U. S.
Geological Survey and San Francisco State University.
The water supplies of the San Francisco Bay Area,
Southern California and the farm-rich Central Valley depend
on the man-made water system that links to the Sacramento
and San Joaquin rivers, noted James Lienkaemper, the U. S.
Geological Survey geologist who was lead author of the
study. The Green Valley fault is last believed to have rup-
tured sometime in the 1600s.
The study shows the state needs to consider more seri-
ously the earthquake risk in that area, Lienkaemper said by
phone.
All four vulnerable fault segments belong to the San
Andreas fault system, the geological dividing line that
marks where the western half of California shifts northwest
and away from the rest of North America at about 2 inches a
year.
The other fault sections that have built up enough tension
for a temblor with a magnitude of 6. 8 or greater are the
northern Calaveras and Hayward faults in the east San
Francisco Bay Area and the Rodgers Creek fault to the north,
scientists concluded in a study published in the Bulletin of
the Seismological Society of America.
Hagel: Climate change
will challenge military
By Lolita C. Baldor
AREQUIPA, Peru Rising sea levels and other effects of
climate change will pose major challenges for Americas
military, including more and worse natural disasters and the
threat that food and water shortages could fuel disputes and
instability around the world, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel
said Monday.
Addressing a conference of military leaders as the
Pentagon released a new report on the issue, Hagel said,
Our militaries readiness could be tested, and our capabili-
ties could be stressed.
U. S. military officials have long warned that changes in
climate patterns, resulting in increased severe weather
events and coastal flooding, will have a broad and costly
impact on the Defense Departments ability to protect the
nation and respond to natural and humanitarian disasters in
the United States and around the globe.
The new report described as a Pentagon roadmap
identifies four things that it says will affect the U. S. mili-
tary: rising global temperatures, changing precipitation
patterns, more extreme weather and rising sea levels. It
calls on the department and the military services to identify
more specific concerns, including possible effects on the
more than 7, 000 bases and facilities, and to start putting
plans in place to deal with them.

STOCKHOLM Frenchman
Jean Tirole won the Nobel prize for
economics Monday for finding
ways to encourage better products
and competitive prices in indus-
tries dominated by a few compa-
nies.
Tiroles work is credited with
helping shape the deregulation of
industries in developed economies
in the 1980s and 1990s. But he has
also called for stronger oversight
of banks in the wake of the global
financial crisis.
I was incredibly surprised at the
honor, and it took me half an hour
to recoup from the Nobel commit-
tees call, Tirole, 61, said in an
interview with the website
Nobelprize. org
Tirole, who works at the
Toulouse School of Economics in
France and has a doctorate from
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, is the third
Frenchman to win the $1. 1 million
Nobel Memorial Prize in
Economic Sciences, which has
been dominated by U. S. econo-
mists. This is the first year since
1999 that an American has not
been one of the winners.
Tirole cannot be easily catego-
rized as pro- or anti-regulation. He
agrees with free-market advocates
that because firms know more
than regulators, regulation is nec-
essarily going to be imperfect,
said Harvard University economist
Eric Maskin, who taught Tirole at
MIT and who won a Nobel prize
himself in 2007. But that doesnt
mean there shouldnt be regula-
tion. You have to be very careful so
you dont do more harm than
good.
At a news conference Monday,
Tirole said: The market needs a
strong state to function normally.
Left unregulated, companies that
have few competitors can refuse to
innovate and can charge unneces-
sarily high prices. But attempts to
regulate them often fail.
Companies grow close to the gov-
ernment agencies that are sup-
posed to supervise them and find
ways to use regulations to keep out
competitors.
Nobel to Frenchman Jean Tirole
for work on industry regulation

VATICAN CITY Catholic
bishops signaled a radical shift in
tone Monday about accepting gays
into the church, saying they had
gifts to offer and that their partner-
ships, while morally problematic,
provided homosexual couples with
precious support.
In a preliminary report, released
half-way through a Vatican meet-
ing on family life called by Pope
Francis, the bishops also said the
church must welcome divorcees and
recognize the positive aspects of
civil marriages and even Catholics
who cohabitate, as well as the chil-
dren of these less traditional fami-
lies.
While it does not change church
doctrine, the tone of the report on
a host of hot-button family issues
such as marriage, divorce, homo-
sexuality and birth control was one
of almost-revolutionary accept-
ance and understanding rather than
condemnation. It will guide a
closed-door debate until a final
document is issued Saturday.
Gay rights groups hailed what
they called a seismic shift in the
churchs attitude toward gays.
For the LGBT Catholics in the
United States and around the world,
this new document is a light in the
darkness a dramatic new tone
from a church hierarchy that has
long denied the very existence of
committed and loving gay and les-
bian partnerships, said Chad
Griffin, president of Human Rights
Campaign, the biggest LGBT
rights organization in the U. S.
Some conservative cardinals
downplayed the report as insignif-
icant or derided it as unacceptable,
while conservative groups
denounced it as heresy and a
betrayal that will only serve to
confuse Catholics.
Confused, contradictory chaos
in Rome, headlined the arch-con-
servative commentator Michael
Voris.
Bishops clearly took into
account the views of the pope,
whose Who am I to judge? com-
ment about gays signaled a new
tone of welcome for the church.
Their report also reflected the
views of ordinary Catholics who,
in responses to Vatican question-
naires in the run-up to the synod,
rejected church teaching on birth
control and homosexuality as out-
dated and irrelevant.
In a sign of the chasm that is
apparently underway, Francis
decided late Friday to add six pro-
gressives from four continents to
the synod leadership to help pre-
pare the final document after sever-
al conservatives were elected to
leadership positions. None of
Francis appointees were Africans,
who are traditionally among the
most conservative on family
issues.
The drama continues, a wry
Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, arch-
bishop of Manila, said of the
debate.

gifts to offer church

happens inside the classroom and not
spend lavishly on items not directly linked
to teaching. Terner, a former San Mateo
planning commissioner, learned of the
bond measure too late to oppose it on the
ballot, where the official opposition is
from the Silicon Valley Taxpayers
Association.
With a large percentage of students requir-
ing remedial classes or not transferring to
other universities Terner claims 70 per-
cent of the first and less than 10 percent of
the latter but Galatolo calls her numbers
wrong Terner said the district needs to
prioritize actual learning over extravagant
construction.
Galatolo, though, thinks her comments
are classist and offensive.
Do these student not deserve new build-
ings? he asked.
The district includes Skyline College in
San Bruno, Caada College in Redwood
City and College of San Mateo.
Galatolo said Terner doesnt understand
the districts true vision which is certainly
preparing some students for transfer but
also awarding certificates and providing
lifelong learning. The district also recruits
international students a point of pride
for Galatolo who said that is one seat at a
state school not taken away from a domes-
tic student and a point of contention for
Terner.
The back and forth is indicative of how
what one side sees as a necessary upgrade
the other paints as an extravagance. Both
say the other is cherry picking what they
want voters to know when casting their
vote.
The $100 million creative arts building
proposed for Skyline College may be the
most indicative of the disparate camps.
Terner questions why a junior college needs
a facility with a price tag she says rivals
those at private universities. Galatolo said
it is a 600-seat theater surrounded by a
120, 000-square-foot multi-disciplinary
center for drama, art and social science.
Likewise, Terner calls the planned kinesi-
ology building nothing more than a gym
hidden under a title few understand. Yes, it
is, said Galatolo but it will also house other
programs, athletics and faculty offices.
Thats what is so frustrating. She knows
this and completely picks it out of every-
thing else, he said.
The $388 million bonds proposals also
call for $45 million on math facilities at
College of San Mateo, workforce and allied
health expansion worth $30 million and
$56 million worth of renovation at all
three campuses. Caada will get a $40 mil-
lion new facility of science and math tech-
nology and $12 million will fund an envi-
ronmental studies and science center at
Skyline. There are also districtwide proj-
ects like infrastructure, surveillance cam-
eras and classroom furniture.
One engineering building from the 1960s
still has equipment from the same era which
makes teaching 20th-century engineering
difficult, Galatolo said.
Who is it for her to say these are extrav-
agant buildings? he asked.
But Terner said the list is of examples not
concrete projects which gives the district a
blank check to allow anything it wants.
This is some vague fantasy wish list that
allows them to do whatever they couldnt
possibly dream up, she said.
Galatolo points to the districts track
record of high credit ratings, two grand jury
reports commending it for managing capi-
tal improvements and a lack of scandals
over lost or misspent funds.
Terner takes aim at the construction
money donated to the pro-Measure H cam-
paign, calling it special interest funding.
If the district succeeds in getting the
measure passed, Terner predicts it will be
back to voters for more money for mainte-
nance and operation. That money, too,
should be spent on teaching, she said.
Besides, she said, the district has already
collected millions from taxpayers and won-
ders why that money wasnt spent on some
of these projects then.
The district last passed a bond in 2005.
That $468 million measure followed a $207
million bond in 2001.
The district tried passing a $564 million
bond in November 2011 but fell just shy of
the 55 percent approval needed for passage.
The half-billion figure was just too much,
Galatolo said.
This time, the bond works out to be
$8. 22 per $100, 000 of assessed value. For
a house with an assessed value of $400, 000
in San Mateo County, the typical home-
owner is looking at about $32 per year,
Galatolo said.
He said voters need to realize improving
the college campuses is not only good for
the students but also the community which
is drawn to its events and homeowners who
will see value increases.
Its a small investment in what weve
done, he said.

WASHINGTON They have heal t h
insurance, but still no peace of mind.
Overall, 1 in 4 privately insured adults say
they doubt they could pay for a major
unexpected illness or injury.
A new poll from the Associated Press-
NORC Center for Public Affairs Research
may help explain why President Barack
Obama faces such strong headwinds in try-
ing to persuade the public that his health
care law is holding down costs.
The survey found the biggest financial
worri es among peopl e wi t h so-cal l ed
high-deductible plans that require patients
to pay a big chunk of their medical bills
each year before insurance kicks in.
Such plans already represented a grow-
ing share of employer-sponsored cover-
age. Now, theyre also the mainstay of the
new health insurance exchanges created by
Obamas law.
Edward Frank of Reynol dsvi l l e,
Pennsylvania, said he bought a plan with
a $6, 000 deduct i bl e l ast year t hrough
HealthCare. gov. Thats in the high range,
since deductibles for popular silver plans
on the insurance exchanges average about
$3, 100 still a lot.
Unless you get desperately ill and in
the hospital for weeks, its going to cost
you more to have this plan and pay the
premiums than to pay the bill just out-
right, said Frank, who ended up paying
$4, 000 of his own money for treatment of
shoulder pain.
The deductibles are so high, you dont
get much of anything out of it, said
Frank, who is in 50s and looking for a new
job.
Sandra Chapman, a warehouse worker
from Memphis, said she had to go without
cholesterol medication last year because
of issues with her prescription coverage.
Instead of taking pills, she changed her
diet.
They only cover certain stuff and, I
dont know, the rules change all the time,
said Chapman, in her early 30s.

OPINION 9
Correcting Measure
H misinformation
Editor,
While I normally take the high road
and ignore false allegations and mis-
leading claims by a misinformed
author, Im compelled to set the record
straight on the No on Measure H let-
ter.
The San Mateo County Community
College District has not misused or
misrepresented bond proceeds in
fact, we received two civil grand jury
commendations on our construction
practices and use of bond funds. The
grand jury recommended that the
Superintendent of Schools adopt poli-
cies and best practices for managing
capital improvement projects based on
the SMCCD model. Weve been
praised by our independent bond over-
sight committees and received perfect
external audits no audit exceptions.
Our Standard & Poors and Moodys
nancial ratings are the highest possi-
ble higher than any other public
college or university in the nation.
The author states that enrollment is
declining; it declined less than 1 per-
cent. However, during the recession,
we were bursting at the seams with
more than 13,000 students on class
waitlists. Enrollments are cyclical,
uctuating with the economy and
changes in high school populations.
With projected high school growth,
we anticipate substantial enrollment
increases. Regardless, we consistently
serve 40,000+ students each year
all of whom deserve contemporary
classrooms and labs to ensure they are
prepared for the workforce and transfer
to universities.
The author states that less than 10
percent of students transfer which is
incorrect. Recently, CSM transferred
21 percent considerably higher
than the statewide average. That per-
centage only accounts for transfers to
Californias public universities; trans-
fers to private or out-of-state universi-
ties arent counted. Additionally, 14
percent of CSM students completed
certicate programs or AAdegrees and
successfully entered the workforce.
The authors summary of our bond
expenditures is full of misinformation
and distortions. I urge readers to visit
www.yesforsanmateoccd.org to under-
stand our strategic vison and how we
will effectively rebuild our 50-year-old
colleges.

No on Measure H
Editor,
Most of us would agree that our local
community colleges should be well-
maintained, kept in good repair and
provide an affordable step up to a four-
year college for local students I cer-
tainly do. But I am voting no on the
upcoming community college bond
Measure H and I am urging you to vote
no too. Why?
Since 2001, taxpayers have been
giving the San Mateo County
Community College District close to a
billion dollars to repair leaking
roofs, replace aging HVAC systems,
provide access for disabled students,
modernize science classrooms and
labs, update classrooms to meet seis-
mic codes and remove hazardous mate-
rials (from the 2014 Sample Ballot).
It is interesting to note the exact
same heart-warming to-do list has
been put to the voters in prior bond
measures in 1999, 2001, 2005 and
2011. You might think that a billion
dollars would have been more than
enough to make these repairs and
youd be right.
Surprisingly, Measure H is asking
for $388 million more for the very
same things. Take a drive up to
College of San Mateo I guarantee
you wont see dilapidated buildings in
need of repair. What you will see are
some unnecessarily extravagant new
administrative and athletic facilities.
Dont be bamboozled. Vote no on
Measure H, the community college
bond im-am scam.

No to license plate scanners
Editor,
The proposal to adopt license plate
scanners in San Carlos seems a bit
overboard (San Carlos considers
license plate readers in the Oct. 10
edition of the Daily Journal). For one,
the whole idea seems really intrusive
and seems like it will allow the police
force to use it for other reasons other
than its intended purpose, like many
things they do nowadays.
I mean weve seen the headaches red
light cameras have caused cities such
as South San Francisco as well as the
outcry resulting in their removal.
If the scanners are going to cost the
cities $70,000 initially and an annual
maintenance fee of $8,000, then why
not use those funds to staff the police
force with more ofcers and encourage
them to use traditional methods to
track down and respond to crime.
To me, the license plate scanners are
just a shortcut and leave already nan-
cially drained communities an irre-
sponsible bill to pay.
Lets encourage our ofcers to mas-
ter and apply traditional policing prac-
tices and be less reliant solely on tech-
nology.

Important Burlingame
City Council meetings for
renters and housing advocates
Editor,
This Wednesday, Oct. 15 at 7 p.m.,
the Burlingame City Council will be
interviewing applicants for the empty
council seatrecently vacated by Jerry
Deal.
Although this position will only be
for one year, it is vital that renters
attend the interview sessions to nd
out if any of theapplicants are educat-
ed about the housing issues in
Burlingame, and what their positions
are on affordable housing and rent sta-
bilization.
The vote to choose the applicant
will follow up at the regular council
meeting 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 20.
Renters and housing advocates should
let the council know now that we need
the new councilmember to be educated
about the rental crisis, displacement
issues and affordable housing possi-
bilities.

Peace will not work
Editor,
The Rev. Henry Hansen has
observed that ISIS is a serious threat
because it promotes hate over love,
and its brutal torture and slaughter of
minorities and Christians demon-
strates ISIS lack of regard for the
sacredness of life and how precious
every human life is, (Rev. Hansens
Op-Ed Aprayerful response to the Iraq
and Syria crisis in the Oct. 11 edition
of the Daily Journal). How tragically
accurate Rev. Hansens observations
are.
As I reect upon what he says, I am
heartbroken by the realization that
peaceful activism and the practice of
loving our enemies can make for a
more peaceful world leaves us open to
whatever horrors ISIS has demonstrat-
ed it has no hesitation to inict. If
ISIS is not stopped by force, it will
use force to fundamentally transform
the West to conform to the monstrous
ISIS vision of how the world should
work.

Letters to the editor
A holy decision
F
orget relying on prayers to stave off the sale of
Seton Hospital in Daly City to a Southern
California health care chain that unions contend
prioritize dollar bills over patient bills of health. Lets
instead put some faith in somebody with a direct line to
the big man upstairs.
Interesting tidbit in the announcement that the
Daughters of Charity Health System picked Prime
Healthcare Services to buy Seton, its cohort Seton
Coastside and four other sister facilities: Not only does
the California attorney general need to sign off on the
deal but the pope has to also give his approval.
Yes, the pope. Technically, the Vatican but we all
know what that means. When one says the White House
theyre not talking
about the head garden-
er. Likewise, refer-
ences to the Vatican
have to mean the head
poobah of everything
Catholic.
In any case, much of
the focus during the
publicity of the pend-
ing sale has been how
elected officials and
unions plan to con-
vince Attorney General
Kamala Harris that it is
in the best interest of
the poor, the charita-
ble and everybody in between to put the kibosh on
Primes offer.
Instead, how about shifting the energy to the other
person with the yay or nay power?
Seems the Vatican must approve the sale of any
Catholic hospital for either more than $3 million or $5
million, depending on what source you rely. Neither
DCHS nor Prime have shared the price tag details but
chances are pretty good six hospitals cost a bit more
than that papal threshold.
Before the Vatican makes any rash decisions, I suggest
the pope come out west to see what the deal really is.
Granted, he could visit any of the six facilities on the
sales block some of which are outside the Bay Area
but I suggest Seton and its Moss Beach counterpart.
The weathers good now, the Giants are back home in
contention for the World Series and Half Moon Bay is
smack dab in the middle of giant pumpkin fever. The
timing for a little Peninsula vacay couldnt be better.
Sadly, we dont have the Nun Bun but any commuter
will say navigating Bay Area traffic often takes a series
of minor miracles. The pope will fit right in.
Also, San Francisco International Airport is an inter-
national travel hub. The name kind of says it. This last
caveat is nothing to sneeze at. After all, wont the pope
want to fly Virgin Atlantic (for obvious reasons)?
Previous popes may have passed on the offer. Its
probably no small feat to get the Popemobile stateside.
Unless, of course, there is a spare housed somewhere
and, if thats the case, Im putting it on the list of vehi-
cles that Id like to test drive right behind a Tesla road-
ster and the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile.
Pope Francis, however, appears to be a man of the
people. He passes on formality and walks among the
masses just like a regular guy, albeit one with a
wardrobe one cant just pick up at the mall. He also has
some pretty vocal opinions about economic equality
and health care.
Taken together, he is just the person to decide if Prime
is the best choice for hospitals that have previously
made charity care a large part of their mission. Perhaps
Prime is just the cash infusion the financially strapped
hospital chain needs to stay alive. Or possibly it is the
devil waiting patiently for the moment to strike at
employee benefits and services in the name of profit.
Time will tell but lets speed the process up a little.
Step aside, Harris. Pipe down government regulators.
Not many bits of commerce get the chance for literal
benediction so we better take advantage of the pope say-
ing whether this sale is a blessing or a curse.

Big movers

The stock market slumped on
Monday, unable to shake off worries of
a global economic slowdown and
plunging oil prices.
Airlines, energy and materials
stocks were among the biggest declin-
ers. Stocks are coming off their worst
week in more than two years.
The downturn leaves the Standard &
Poors index 500 down 6. 8 percent
from its recent peak last month and up
just 1. 4 percent for the year.
Many investors remain concerned
that growth in Europe and Asia could
be slowing. A meeting of eurozone
finance ministers in Luxembourg did-
nt appear to allay those fears.
A measure of volatility soared, indi-
cating investors are getting increas-
ingly nervous.
If global growth continues to weak-
en, the U. S. is not going to be able to
sustain the kind of momentum weve
been gaining since the first quarter,
said Quincy Krosby, market strategist
at Prudential Financial. Thats the
worry.
A late slide in the last half-hour of
trading came after an otherwise calm
day in the markets. The market opened
lower and wavered for much of the day
between small gains and losses.
The late wave of selling was likely
triggered by automated trading pro-
grams that started selling stocks when
it became clear that the S&P 500 would
close below an important technical
level, said Randy Frederick, managing
director of trading and derivatives at
Schwab Center for Financial Research.
Many traders follow these levels to
give them an indication about the
near-term direction of the market.
In this case, the S&P 500 closed
below 1, 905, the 200-day moving
average price for the index. The index
had traded above the average since
November, 2012, gaining 36 percent.
Weve broken down to a point
where we havent been for a long, long
time, Frederick said.
Frederick still thinks the stock mar-
ket will avoid a correction. Thats a
drop of 10 percent or more, something
that hasnt happened since October
2011. Frederick is expecting the
recent volatility to continue for a few
more weeks yet.
All told, the Dow Jones industrial
average lost 223. 03, or 1. 4 percent, to
16, 321. 07. The Standard & Poors 500
index shed 31. 39, or 1. 7 percent, to
1, 874. 74.
The Nasdaq slid 62. 58 points, or 1. 5
percent, to 4, 213. 66.

All of the 10 sectors in the S&P 500
fell, led by energy with a decline of 2. 9
percent. Utilities, a safe-play sector,
fell the least, just 0. 1 percent.
The Dow went negative for the year
on Friday and is now down 1. 5 percent
for 2014 and 5. 5 percent below its
September peak. Small-company
stocks have fared much worse than the
rest of the market as investors shun
investments seen as more speculative.
The Russell 2000 index has fallen
13. 2 percent since July.
Airline stocks had some of the
biggest declines on Monday. That sec-
tor has received a drubbing from
investors recently as worries mount
that the outbreak of the Ebola virus
will curb travel spending. Concerns
about a slowing global economy have
also hurt the stocks.
American Airlines Group fell $2. 20,
or 7. 1 percent, to $28. 58 and Delta Air
Lines fell $2. 01, or 6. 1 percent, to
$30. 90. American has fallen 24 per-
cent in the last month, Delta 22. 2 per-
cent.
Investors found reasons to cheer
some stocks.
CSX led the gainers in the S&P 500
as investors reacted to a published
report that another railroad operator
has approached the company about a
possible merger. The stock climbed
$1. 76, or 5. 9 percent, to $31. 70.
U.S. indexes slide; Airlines, energy stocks drop
By Jonathan Fahey
NEW YORK If youre a driver, a shipper
or an airline, low oil prices sure feel nice.
But there are downsides to the recent plunge
in oil prices for the oil industry and for
the economy.
Low fuel prices can help boost economic
growth by reducing fuel bills and leaving
consumers and companies with more money
to spend on other things. Problem is, two
factors behind the oil-price drop a weak-
er global economy and a stronger dollar
could hurt the U. S. economy by reducing
exports, employment and spending. And all
that, in turn, could outweigh the economic
benefit of cheaper fuel.
Initially, (a lower oil price) will provide
a boost to an economy that already has
some momentum, says Diane Swonk, chief
economist at Mesirow Financial. Its like a
tax cut. The problem is that it will come
back to haunt us in 2015.
A boom in U. S. oil production, which has
helped reduce dependence on foreign oil,
has been propelled by high prices. Drilling
in some areas of North Dakota and Texas,
for example, produces only a slight output
per day. If prices fell further, drilling would
have to slow because it would no longer be
profitable.
Oil hasnt fallen quite far enough for that
to happen, analysts say. Even the more
expensive drilling operations are still prof-
itable when oil sells for $85 a barrel, and
oil closed just below $86 on Monday. In
general, oil companies would have to
expect oil prices to stay below $80 a barrel
for many months to scale back their drilling
plans.
Unless supplies drop, perhaps from a cut
in production from Saudi Arabia or OPEC, or
a sudden turnaround in the global economy
that would increase demand, prices could
fall further.
Its problematic, says Gary Ross, CEO
of PIRA Energy Group. The wake-up call is
on its way.
In the meantime, drivers will be enjoying
the lowest gas prices in four years. Tom
Kloza, chief oil analyst at the Oil Price
Information Service and Gasbuddy. com,
says the national average could fall under $3
a gallon before years end for the first time
since 2010.
Benchmark U. S. crude oil peaked in late
June at $107 after Islamic State fighters
seized control of some cities and Iraq and
seemed capable of disrupting exports from
OPECs second-largest exporter. Upheaval
in Libya sharply cut its output.
Global supplies were unstable, and
demand appeared robust. U. S. refiners were
churning through more oil than ever and
making and exporting records amounts of
fuel.
The picture soon flipped. The threat to
Iraqs exports diminished. Libyan exports
returned to the market. And refineries in the
U. S. and Asia slowed for seasonal mainte-
nance.
Why drop inoil prices has downside for U.S. economy

NEW YORK J. C. Penney has
named a Home Depot executive as its
next CEO.
The department store operator said
Monday that Marvin Ellison, current-
ly executive vice president of stores
at Home Depot Inc. , will become
president in November and CEO next
August.
J. C . Penneys shares rose in pre-
market trading on the news.
The 49-year-old Ellison will take
over t he CEO post from Mi ke
Ullman, who came back to the Plano,
Texas companys helm in April 2013
after former CEO Ron Johnson was
oust ed aft er onl y
17 months on the
job.
Ullman, who had
served as CEO for
seven years before
Johnsons t enure,
worked to stabilize
t he busi ness aft er
Johnsons botched
up t ransformat i on
plan resulted in disastrous financial
results.
Ellison, who will also join J. C.
Penney Co. s board, will take over as
CEO on Aug. 1, 2015. Ullman will
become executive chairman of the
board at that time, serving in the
position for a year.
The board has completed its search
for the right CEO to lead the next
stage of JC Penneys growth, said
Thomas J. Engibous, chairman of
J. C. Penneys board of directors in a
statement. He called Ellison a high-
ly accomplished retail executive with
a history of delivery top and bottom
line results at major American retail-
ers.
Engibous said that Ellison has an
extensive knowledge of stores opera-
tions and an ability to successfully
run large retail organizations.
Ellison faces big challenges to turn
around J. C. Penney. While Penney
has clearly coming back from life
support, questions remain whether
the new CEO will be able to drive
sales momentum and get the compa-
ny back on the path of profitability.
JC Penney names Ellison as its next CEO
DETROIT At least 27 people have
died and 25 people have been serious-
ly injured in crashes involving
General Motors cars with defective
ignition switches.
Attorney Kenneth Feinberg, who
was hired by GM to compensate vic-
tims, updated the totals Monday.
Feinberg says he has received 178
death claims since August. Of those,
27 have been deemed eligible for com-
pensation payments.
Twenty-five of the 1, 193 injury
claimants have also received compen-
sation offers.
Fei nberg has made 31 set t l ement
offers, and 21 have been accept ed
t hus far. None of t he offers has been

GM knew about faulty ignition
switches in Chevrolet Cobalts and
other small cars for more than a decade
but didnt recall them until February of
this year. The switches can slip out of
the on position, which causes the
cars to stall, knocks out power steer-
ing and turns off the air bags.
Feinberg will accept claims until
Dec. 31.

Southwest begins
long-haul flights from Dallas
DALLAS Some passengers aboard the first long-
haul Southwest Airlines flights from Dallas Love Field
have been treated to shirts and vacation packages.
Southwest on Monday launched its first long-dis-
tance flights from its home base to seven U. S. cities,
with eight more destinations next month.
Such flights were prohibited until now by a 1980 fed-
eral law that protected Dallas-Fort Worth International
Airport by limiting flights from Love Field to a few
nearby states. Those restrictions have now expired.
Business brief

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Much to the chagrin of the Jefferson track-
and-field team, Damari Cual-Davis is not a
three-sport athlete.
With his dynamic foot speed, Cual-Davis
could be a top-flight track star. He knows this
because, when he works out on the Jefferson
track during the spring in preparation for foot-
ball season, he gets courted by the track coach-
es on a daily basis.
Cual-Davis is intent on becoming the best
football player he can be though. Because of
his ambition for the gridiron, the junior quar-
terback is less concerned with showing off his
wheels and more determined to balance his
game by developing as a prestigious passer.
I want to grow and be a dual-threat quarter-
back, Cual-Davis said. I want to be deadly in
both aspects, both running and throwing.
Last Thursday in a 41-0 triumph over Galileo
his father Raymonds alma mater Cual-
Davis again showed he is well on his way to
proving his versatile prowess. In addition to
QB Cual-Davis reviving Jeff

The 49ers overcame a 14-0 first-quarter deficit to overtake the Rams on this third-quarter Anquan Boldin touchdown reception.The Niners
went on to prevail 31-17 in their only Monday Night Football appearance of the season.
By R.B. Fallstrom
ST. LOUIS The San Francisco 49ers
defense got beat early by unfamiliar plays
and Austin Davis calling the signals.
No disrespect, but I didnt know who
their quarterback was, linebacker Ahmad
Brooks said. We got some good pressure on
him. That helped us.
Davis was sacked five times, twice each
by Brooks and Dan Skuta. They carried the
day, keeping the St. Louis Rams offense
stalled, and giving Colin Kaepernick a
chance to warm up in a 31-17 victory on
Monday night.
Kaepernick threw for 343 yards and three
touchdowns for the 49ers, who erased an
early 14-point deficit. The defense stepped
up again when Dontae Johnson returned an
interception return for a TD in the final
minute to seal it.
Talk about an opportunity, I had the
chance to make a play, Johnson said.
Brandon Lloyd, Anquan Boldin and
Michael Crabtree each caught a scoring pass
for the 49ers (4-2), who have won three in a
row. The 49ers permitted one first down on
St. Louis first six possessions of the sec-
ond half.
Weve had the ball in every game with a
chance to either win or tie, Davis said.
Thats where hopefully my experience will
help, the more opportunities I get.
Youve got to be able to go win games at
the end.
Kaepernick had plenty of time to throw
and wasnt sacked.
We just want to win, Kaepernick said.
Whatever it takes, if were up with the lead
or if we have to come from behind.
Kaepernick found Boldin zipping across
the end zone for an 11-yard touchdown pass,
capping a go-ahead 80-yard drive to start the
second half. As the Niners were taking the
17-14 lead, several fans in the upper deck

efore Sundays walkoff loss in
Game 2 of the National League
Championship Series, the San
Francisco Giants had won 10 of 11 play-
offs games their only loss over that
span being a 4-1 loss to the Washington
Nationals in Game 3 of the National
League Division Series.
Not that the Giants have cruised to
those 10 straight wins. Their margin of
error has been razor thin, continuing the
teams torturous brand of baseball.
A lot has been
made of manager
Bruce Bochy and his
ability to push all
the right buttons at
the right time. The
general consensus is
Bochy outmanaged
Nationals skipper
Matt Williams, who
just completed his
rookie season as the
man in charge.
Bochy is consid-
ered to be one of the
best in baseball and many already think
of him as a hall of famer.
But not even Bochy is perfect. Sunday,
he seemed to outmanage himself during
the Giants 5-4 loss to the Cardinals. First
is his continued insistence on using rook-
ie Hunter Strickland in key situations.
I get it. Strickland announces his pres-
ence with authority as Nuke LaLoosh
said in the movie Bull Durham.
Strickland can bring the heat, with fast-
balls approaching 100 mph. He gives the
Giants something they havent had a
while: a flame thrower who has a com-
manding presence on the mound.
The problem is, Strickland is still
learning to pitch. Sunday, he gave up his
fourth homer of the postseason, a bomb
from St. Louis first baseman Matt Adams
that gave St. Louis a 4-3 lead. Strickland
Bochy not
infallible

SAN FRANCISCO The St. Louis
Cardinals arrived in the Bay Area ballpark
they know so well in October and began
preparing for the possibility of facing the
Giants without star catcher Yadier Molina.
Another beautiful day in NorCal! reliev-
er Randy Choate shouted as he hopped up
the dugout steps and onto the field for
Mondays workout.
Shocker! bench coach Mike Aldrete
hollered in response.
Manager Mike Matheny is encouraged
Molina might be able to help St. Louis as
soon as Tuesday in Game 3, perhaps initial-
ly just off the bench as he recovers from a
strained left oblique muscle sustained in
Sundays 5-4 victory at Busch Stadium.
Playing at all appeared doubtful only a
night earlier, then Molina played catch
under cloudless skies at AT&T Park and gave
Matheny hope.
A little better than what I expected,
Molina said afterward. When I woke up, I
was moving all right. Well see. Im going
to try.
A. J. Pierzynski is the likely choice to
catch former Boston teammate John Lackey
in Game 3, and deemed himself ready. The
best-of-seven series is tied 1-1.
Molina flew on the team charter on
Sunday night after having an MRI. Once the
Cardinals arrived at the ballpark on
Monday, Molina met with team doctors and
medical staff in the training room of the vis-
itors clubhouse.
Matheny carried three catchers and has
Tony Cruz and Pierzynski to fill the big
void.
Obviously its a big loss, but we spent
some time without him this year and were
fortunate to have A. J. and Tony, who are two
really good players, infielder Mark Ellis
said. Were lucky to have them but I feel
bad for Yadi because this is what he worked
for the whole year and hes not able to be
with us.
Tim Hudson takes the ball for the Giants,
the 39-year-old right-handers first start
beyond the division series in 16 major
league seasons.
He is already thriving in the raucous play-
off environment of pumped-up crowds.
At this point in my career, its almost
like a shot of coffee, he said.

rushing for 127 yards on 10 carries,
he threw for 277 yards and three
touchdowns on 13-of-19 passing,
totaling 404 yards on the game.
That isnt even his best single-
game performance of the season. It is
the third time in five games Cual-
Davis has surpassed the 400-yard
plateau in total yards. The previous
week against Lowell, Cual-Davis
totaled 401 yards to lead the Indians
to a 43-23 win. In a Sept. 12 win over
Albany Jeffersons first varsity
win since 2012 he racked up 417
total yards.
Jeffersons most recent victory was
a monumental one though, as with it,
the Indians record is now above . 500
for the first time since 2010. Because
of his outstanding performance in
such a key win, Cual-Davis has been
named the San Mateo Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
At the beginning of the year we
started out with a clean slate, Cual-
Davis said. We wanted to make sure
we started out fresh, not having that
loser mentality and bringing all the
negativity from last year to this year.
At the beginning of the year we set a
big goal and that was to achieve
CCS.
The Indians will face its first test
Friday towards a Central Coast
Section playoff push as they open
Peninsula Athletic League Lake
Division play against Mills. Its an
intriguing matchup as Cual-Davis and
Mills quarterback Marquis Adkins are
cut from the same stone. Each can
motor. Each can throw. And the two
make for as exciting a quarterback
pairing as youre going to see in the
Lake Division.
And Jefferson head coach Cesar
Vega knows precisely what he has in
his burgeoning superstar quarterback.
Hes a machine with his legs,
Vega said. But hes really developed
as a pass-run threat. This year hes
developed into a complete quarter-
back.
The way Cual-Davis tells the story,
he was born to play quarterback. The
Daly City natives football career
started in grade school when he enlist-
ed with the local Pop Warner team, the
Daly City Titans. Not all too familiar
with the sport yet, when asked what
position he played by the Titans
coach, he didnt have an answer.
He pointed at me and asked me
what I wanted to do, and I told him I
honestly didnt know, Cual-Davis
said. It was my first year and he just
looked at me and told me I was a quar-
terback. Ever since then, every
year, Ive been a quarterback.
By the time Cual-Davis reached the
seventh grade, he was commanding a
championship squad. That 2011 sea-
son, the Titans posted an undefeated
10-0 record en route to a Peninsula
Pop Warner championship.
Upon his arrival at Jefferson, how-
ever, Cual-Davis didnt play football
as a freshman. Two coaches and three
offensive systems ago, the Indians
employed a Wing-T offense in 2012.
Cual-Davis knew there wasnt much of
a need for a prototypical quarterback
in such a system, and said he actually
entertained the idea of transferring out
of Jefferson to attend a private
school.
Then at the end of the 2012 season,
Vega took over the football team.
Since then, Vega has been on a mis-
sion to return the Jefferson football
team to prominence. One of his first
orders of business was to install a pis-
tol offense.
So, Cual-Davis stayed put and
joined the Jefferson varsity ranks as a
sophomore. And while the Indians
didnt win a game with their new part-
time quarterback, Cual-Davis
embraced the precious varsity playing
time.
I dont regret moving up because I
think it helped to make me stronger
and faster, Cual-Davis said. It
helped me learn the game better at var-
sity speed at a young age. So, this
year I know how the game goes the
speed, the tempo everything.
This year, the addition of offensive
coordinator Will Maddox has allowed
Jefferson to surge into a new season
with the instillation of a new spread-
offense scheme. And for Cual-Davis
who looks up to the likes of
spread-offense quarterbacks such as
the Carolina Panthers Cam Newton
and the Cleveland Browns Johnny
Manziel the opportunity was one
he immediately embraced.
Personally, I like spread offense
better, Cual-Davis said. So, when
they had informed me we were
installing a spread offense, I was real-
ly excited.
Now, Cual-Davis has the ability to
utilize a balanced corps of receivers in
Johnny Paramore, Ahmed Esmail and
Jerriel De la Cruz, each of whom have
over 250 yards receiving thus far in
2014. With an arsenal of this caliber,
Cual-Davis is intent on realizing his
goal of a CCS berth and beyond.
I want to go as far as possible,
Cual-Davis said. Football is what I
AOTW
Bills sack head coach Quinn
BUFFALO, N. Y. Buffalo has fired
coach Jeff Quinn two days after the
Bulls lost to Eastern Michigan.
It is with great disappointment that
we have to make this change, athletic
director Danny White said in a state-
ment released Monday. Unfortunately,
the performance on the field this sea-
son and over coach Quinns tenure has
not matched our expectations for the
growth of Bulls football.
With the bye week, our coaches
and student-athletes have an opportu-
nity to evaluate themselves and make
the changes needed to improve. We
have some very talented and hard-
working student athletes on this team
and we hope this change shifts the
course of the 2014 season.
Offensive coordinator and quarter-
backs coach Alex Wood was elevated
to interim coach. The Bulls next play
Oct. 25 at home against Central
Michigan.
Quinn, 52, was in his fifth season
with the Bulls, who are 3-4 with two
victories against FCS teams. He was
20-36 overall.
The Bulls had their best season
under Quinn last year, going 8-5 with
a bowl trip to Idaho. Linebacker
Khalil Mack went on to be the fifth-
overall pick in the NFL draft.
Sports brief
Raiders Sparano
puts his trust in
rookie Derek Carr
By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA Soon after taking over as interim coach of
the Oakland Raiders, Tony Sparano had a simple message to
deliver to quarterback Derek Carr: This is your team.
With the team winless and dealing with
the aftermath of coach Dennis Allens fir-
ing, Carr no longer had the adjustment time
normally afforded to a rookie quarterback.
In his first game under his new coach,
Carr heeded the command and delivered
his best performance yet in his first NFL
season. Carr threw four touchdown passes
in Oaklands 31-28 loss to San Diego on
Sunday. But even the late interception
that sealed the defeat couldnt completely
overshadow the excitement Carr has generated as the Raiders
best hope to end a decade of losing.
Im the same person, Carr said. I didnt change who I was.
But instead of sitting back and not stepping on toes, he said,
Its your team. Its your team, take it over. That means you can
demand more now. Were past the rookie step. Theres no more
rookie. Youre the leader of this football team. The franchise,
here, now go. Now I can demand things from guys.
It helps that Carr is also delivering himself, showing
improvement each week as he grows more comfortable in the
NFL. Despite playing on a bum left ankle and knee that lim-
ited him all week in practice, Carr got off to a fast start
against the Chargers.
On the third play from scrimmage, he recognized a dis-
guised blitz and was able to wait in the pocket long enough
for Andre Holmes to break free on a double move. Carr then hit
Holmes in stride with a perfectly placed deep ball that led to a
77-yard TD, Oaklands longest scoring throw in five seasons.
Carr found James Jones in a tight window for a 6-yard
touchdown in the second quarter. He then went to his third
option on a 47-yard score to Brice Butler in the third quarter.
Carr gave Oakland the lead in the fourth quarter when he
patiently waited for Holmes to break open in the back of the
end zone on a rollout.
Sparano said Carr came to the sideline a few times asking
for a certain player to be put into the game so he could run a
specific play for him, a sign for growth for the rookie.
It will be different guys, but in his mind he had a vision for
the play, Sparano said. He knew what he wanted to do and
where the matchup could be. I think its really important when
a quarterback starts to feel comfortable with his people.
The game ended on a downer when Carr threw an intercep-
tion on a deep ball in the closing minutes with Oakland driv-
ing for a possible tying field goal or go-ahead touchdown.
With the Raiders just a few yards from field goal range, the
coaching staff had enough confidence in Carr to let him take
a shot downfield. Carr found a one-on-one matchup with
Butler against rookie Jason Verrett down the left side. But
Verrett ripped the ball away from Butler for an acrobatic inter-
ception that sealed the game.
Carr has deep knowledge of the travails for a rookie quar-
terback on a struggling team. He watched big brother David
get battered around 12 years ago as the No. 1 overall draft
pick for the expansion Houston Texans.
The beating David Carr took behind a patchwork offensive
line stunted his growth and he never developed into a top-
flight NFL starter. Derek has gotten significantly better pro-
tection, getting sacked just three times on his first 167 pass
attempts, compared to 41 on Davids first 167.
I watched a certain rookie quarterback with the same last
name about 12 years ago and Im glad its a little different
now because those guys played their tails off, Derek Carr
said of his offensive line.
Derek Carr
unfurled a large banner above the videoboard
on the opposite end of the stadium as part of
ongoing protests about the Michael Brown
shooting in suburban Ferguson in August.
San Francisco then added to its advantage
when Kaepernick connected with Crabtree
for a 32-yard score with 13 seconds left in
the third.
The Rams had one last chance to tie the
game, but Johnson returned an interception
20 yards for the clinching score with 53 sec-
onds to go.
It was a disappointing conclusion for St.
Louis, which had 151 yards and a 14-0 lead
after the first quarter on Benny
Cunninghams 1-yard run and a 22-yard
touchdown reception for Lance Kendricks.
We always see different looks in a game,
Skuta said. They hadnt done some of the
things they did early. We adjusted and we
kept playing, thats something we do really
well.
St. Louis wore throwback uniforms
royal blue and bright yellow to honor its
1999 Super Bowl title team and represented
that winning squad very well for a short
time. Guard Adam Timmerman joined wide
receivers Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt for an
impromptu bob n weave TD dance in the end
zone at halftime.
The Rams havent had a winning season
since the Greatest Show on Turf petered out in
2003. They doubled their first-quarter scor-
ing for the year with a start that mimicked
their last home game when they led Dallas
21-0.
They lost that one 34-31, and this one
was all San Francisco the rest of the way.
The 49ers scuffled to a 1-2 start coming
off a third straight appearance in the NFC
championship game, but have won 13 of
their last 14 in October.
Davis was 21 of 42 for 236 yards. He
threw for 300 yards each of the last two
games with six touchdown passes.
Three of Davis four interceptions have
been returned for touchdowns, all in the
fourth quarter at home.
The 49ers had four penalties before the
end of their first possession, three accepted,
and one the rest of the way. One of the early
miscues, illegal contact on Eric Reid, hand-
ed the Rams a second first-and-goal on their
opening drive capped by Cunninghams TD
behind extra lineman Tim Barnes.
Rookie Tre Masons first career carry was
a 24-yarder that might have gone the dis-
tance had he not run into teammate Brian
Quick. Three plays later, Kendricks got well
behind the defense on a 22-yard catch that
made it 14-0 late in the first.
The 49ers inched back on Phil Dawsons
54-yard field goal, his 10th in a row with
four beyond midfield. They were backed up
at their own 5 inside the two-minute warn-
ing but declined to play it safe and Lloyd
whipped Janoris Jenkins in single coverage
on an 80-yard touchdown catch with 14 sec-
onds left in the half.
We had Brandon Lloyd on a double
move, Kaepernick said. We liked the
matchup. He did an amazing job.

injured Molina, Hudson would be fine not hav-
ing to face the slugging catcher. There are plen-
ty of other big bats to contend with, anyway.
That would be a pretty big blow for them,
not only from an offensive standpoint but
from a defensive standpoint how he handles
those pitchers. Hudson said. But it wouldnt
hurt my feelings if hes not in the lineup for a
few days, theres no question about that.
As the series shifts to San Franciscos
pitcher-friendly ballpark, the Cardinals
know plenty about how the Giants protect
their home field. Two years ago, St. Louis
arri ved i n t own l eadi ng t he NLCS 3-2
before the Giants rallied to take the series
on the way to their second championship
in three years.
Lackey, too, has pitched on the big October
stage in San Francisco albeit back in 2002
with the eventual champion wild-card Angels.
Reminded he intentionally walked home
run king Barry Bonds four times, Lackey
smiled and said: Wouldnt you? Geez.
No offense to anybody in their lineup but
they dont got Barry Bonds, he said. They
have got a really good lineup.
While Molina is improving, Matheny also
is pleased with Adam Wainwrights health.
His workload has come into question after the
ace right-hander hasnt made it out of the fifth
in his two postseason starts. He threw a
bullpen session Monday with a hitter stand-
ing in the box but not swinging.
His game comes down to feel and when
he has a good feel for his fastball, next
thing you know that breaking ball has a
nice, sharp break to it, Matheny said. So
to hear from him that he feels great right
now is great news for us.
Hudson knows he will have to keep the
Cardinals from clearing the fences, whether or
not Molina is in there.
They are hot with the longball, and thats
what beat us last night, Giants manager
Bruce Bochy said.
On Sunday, St. Louis became the first club
to hit home runs in the seventh, eighth and
ninth innings of a postseason game, accord-
ing to STATS.
Thats not necessarily how weve been
winning games this season, Matheny said.
Well take it.
Giants reliever Jean Machi tore the finger-
nail on his right pinkie playing catch during
Mondays workout but athletic trainer Dave
Groeschner said, all good.

Former champ Spinks hospitalized
LAS VEGAS Former heavyweight
champion Leon Spinks is in a Las Vegas
hospital after a second operation for abdom-
inal problems.
The 61-year-old boxer who catapulted to
fame by beating Muhammad Ali in 1978 had
the second surgery in recent days after com-
plications from the first emergency surgery.
His wife updated The Associated Press on
her husbands condition, saying its going
to be a long road ahead, but hes strong and
hes starting to recover. Brenda Spinks
does not know how long he will be hospi-
talized but the family is optimistic.
Spinks won an Olympic gold medal in
1976. After just seven pro fights he defeated
Ali in a 15-round decision in Las Vegas,
only to lose the title in a rematch seven
months later in New Orleans.

SPORTS 15
By Dave Skretta
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The last two times
the Kansas City Royals played a postseason
game at home, rain fell after the final out.
This time, it started well before the first
pitch.
Game 3 of the AL Championship Series
between the Royals and Baltimore Orioles
was postponed Monday because of steady
rain that saturated Kauffman Stadium. The
game was rescheduled for Tuesday at 8:07
p. m. EDT.
Along with steady rain, wind gusts of 25
mph were buffeting the ballpark. The fore-
cast for Tuesday is cold and windy but dry,
with weather improving the rest of the week.
We want a game we know we can get
through nine innings, hopefully play dry
baseball, not risk player safety or uncom-
fortable fans, Major League Baseball
Senior Vice President Peter Woodfork said
about 4 hours before the scheduled first
pitch.
The Royals, who lead the best-of-seven
series 2-0, will keep former Orioles pitcher
Jeremy Guthrie on the mound for Game 3.
The Orioles will start Wei-Yin Chen, as
planned.
After that, rotations become a little
murky.
Royals manager Ned Yost said hell decide
before Tuesday nights game whether to
stick with left-hander Jason Vargas for
Game 4 on Wednesday or call for an audible
and pitch Game 1 starter James Shields on
regular rest. That game is scheduled to start
at 4:07 p. m. EDT.
Guthrie will throw tomorrow, and then
well go from there,
Yost said. Shields can
come back or if we feel
like we want to give him
another day, we can do
that, too.
Orioles manager Buck
Showalter was facing a
similar conundrum.
Miguel Gonzalez was
slated to start Game 4,
but Chris Tillman could return on regular
rest. He opposed Shields when the Royals
beat the Orioles in extra innings in the
series opener.
Hes on normal rest, so yeah, hes an
option, Showalter said. Thatd be five
(days), right? But I wouldnt commit to any-
thing right now other than Chen and see
where we are.
Its not a slam-dunk decision for Yost and
Showalter to go with their aces. Shields and
Tillman struggled Friday night, neither last-
ing past the fifth inning.
Were still getting our arms wrapped
around it, Showalter said.
If needed, Game 5 would start at 4:07 p. m.
EDT on Thursday. Games 6 and 7 would
return to Baltimore and be played Friday and
Saturday, as scheduled.
Our teams are used to play consecutive
games in a row, Woodfork said. Hopefully
it will not have a negative impact on the
clubs.
Rain had been in the forecast for the first two
games of the ALCS at Camden Yards, but both
games were played without delay. The Royals
won the first 8-6 in 10 innings, and Alcides
Esocbars go-ahead double in the ninth inning
boosted them to a 6-4 victory Saturday.
Since the best-of-seven format was adopt-
ed in 1985, all 11 teams that have won the
first two games of a league championship
series on the road reached the World Series.
That doesnt seem to have put a damper on
the Orioles confidence.
Weve played two close games that have
gone their way. Weve had our chances,
Orioles reliever Andrew Miller said. We can
stop their momentum with a win. They
stopped ours. They came in and we hadnt
lost in a while. Weve got to experience
that. Now its our turn.
It wont be easy. With a stingy bullpen
and a scrappy offense that has suddenly
started to hit home runs, the Royals have
won nine straight postseason games dating
to Game 5 of the 1985 World Series three
shy of the record shared by two bunches of
New York Yankees.
Of the six this year, all but one have been
in dramatic fashion.
The Royals beat the As in a 12-inning
wild-card thriller, after which rain started to
pour at Kauffman Stadium. Then they won a
pair of 11-inning contests on the road
against the Angels in the ALDS before
returning home and cruising to an 8-3 series
clincher.
Rain started to fall after that game, too.
Its hard to fault Mother Nature for all her
dreary weather, though. Shes not used to
the perennially downtrodden Royals still
playing games this time of year.
Whenever a team is hot, you definitely
dont want rainouts or off-days, Royals
first baseman Eric Hosmer said. Its just
Mother Nature. Its all part of life. We could-
nt play today, so just come back tomorrow
and try to take care of business.

Hale hired away
from As as new
D-Backs skipper
By John Marshall
PHOENIX Chip Hale spent 10 seasons
in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization,
the final three as the major league third base
coach. He also played at the University of
Arizona and still lives in Tucson.
If ever there was a perfect fit for Hales first
job as a big league manager, it was with the
Diamondbacks, who gave him a two-year
contract Monday to replace Kirk Gibson.
This is the perfect job for me and my
family, and that is important for me to be
here, Hale said.
Backsliding since winning the 2011 NL
West title, the Diamondbacks underwent a
major front-office overhaul this season.
Arizona hired retired Hall of Fame manager
Tony La Russa as chief baseball officer in May,
asking him to assess the entire organization.
He fired general manager Kevin Towers in
early September and replaced him with Dave
Stewart, who a four-time 20-game winner
who pitched for La Russa while with Oakland.
The Diamondbacks also hired De Jon Watson
from the Los Angeles Dodgers to serve as
senior vice president/baseball operations.
Their top priority for the new front-office
group was to find a manager who could
change the culture within the clubhouse.
Gibson led Arizona to a division title his
first full season, but the Diamondbacks fol-
lowing with consecutive 81-81 seasons and
went a big league-worst 64-98 this year.

WHATS ON TAP
has yet to learn you cant challenge
everybody, especially with every
batter sitting on that fastball
which, while fast, is also very
straight. Time to stop letting
Strickland learn on the job. Im not
saying stop using him altogether,
but it would be better to get him out
of the game one batter too early
instead of one batter too late.
Strickland always starts strong, but
has finished with whiplash as he
watches balls sail into the stands.
Bochys second blunder Sunday
was going with Sergio Romo to
pitch the ninth inning of a tie game.
Romo has been strong over the last
month and it was probably just a
matter of time before someone
caught up to him. But Sunday should
not have been that time in that spot.
While Bochy went by the book
save your closer for the save
situation, should it come by
going with his eighth-inning guy
in that spot. But with a tie score,
that was the time to bring in clos-
er Santiago Casilla because there
would be no second chances if the
Cardinals scored.
Which they did when Kolten
Wong took Romo deep for the
game-winning home run.
The good news is, the Giants got
what they wanted a split in St.
Louis. They could come back to
AT&T Park beginning Tuesday, win
the next three and advance to the
World Series for the third time in
five years.
The bad news is, the margin of
error remains as slim as ever, mean-
ing the Giants need to play near per-
fect baseball on the field and in
the dugout.

HEALTH
Health officials
urge hospitals
to think Ebola
By Emily Schmall
and Tammy Webber
DALLAS The Texas nurse who
contracted Ebola while caring for a
dying Liberian man repeatedly
visited his room from the day he
was admitted to the intensive care
unit until the day before he died,
medical records show.
Nurse Nina Pham and other
health care workers wore protec-
tive gear, including gowns,
gloves, masks and face shields
and sometimes full-body suits
when caring for Thomas Eric
Duncan, but the 26-year-old Pham
became the first person to contract
the disease within the United
States.
Federal health officials on
Monday urged the nations hospi-
tals to think Ebola and launched
a review of procedures for treating
infected patients, while the World
Health Organization called the
outbreak the most severe, acute
health emergency seen in modern
times.
Phams family told WFAA-TV in
Dallas on Monday that she was the
health care worker with Ebola. A
rector at her familys church, Hung
Le, told the Associated Press that
Phams mother told him Pham has
the virus.
The Texas Christian University
nursing school graduate was mon-
itoring her own temperature and
went to the hospital Friday night
as soon as she discovered she was
running a low fever. She is in iso-
lation and in stable condition,
health officials said.
Public-health authorities have
since intensified their monitoring
of other Dallas hospital workers
who cared for Duncan.
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention Director Tom Frieden
said he would not be surprised if
another hospital worker who cared
for Duncan becomes ill because
Ebola patients become more con-
tagious as the disease progresses.
Phams name appears frequently
throughout the hundreds of pages
of documents in Duncans medical
records, provided to the
Associated Press by his family.
They show she was in his room
Oct. 13, the day before he died.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama urged his top
national security and public
health officials on Monday to
incorporate lessons from the most
recent Texas Ebola infection into
the U. S. s response plans to the
deadly virus. He also called on the
international community to deliv-
er assistance more quickly to the
countries of West Africa that are
struggling against the disease.
Obama huddled with senior
advisers in the Oval Office and
placed calls to United Nations
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
and French President Francois
Hollande on a day largely devoted
to the Ebola outbreak in Guinea,
Sierra Leone and Liberia and to the
infection of a nurse in Dallas, the
first person known to catch the
disease in the
United States.
Obama met
with national
security adviser
Susan Rice,
Health and Human Services
Secretary Sylvia Burwell and Lisa
Monaco, his top aide on homeland
security and counterterrorism
issues. Tom Frieden, the director
of the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, joined the meet-
ing by phone.
The White House said Burwell
and Frieden described an increase
in resources and personnel to help
investigate the Dallas case as well
as steps to increase training for
public health workers across the
country. The White House said
Obama stressed that the investiga-
tion move quickly to better inform
the response to the illness.
The nurse had treated a Liberian
man who died at the hospital after
bringing the disease from Liberia.
The meeting came shortly after
Frieden urged hospitals to be on
greater alert for patients with fever
or symptoms of Ebola who have
traveled from the three Ebola-
stricken African nations in the
past 21 days.

heavyweight champions, grew two more
than 2, 000 pound pumpkins this year and,
after planting his reigning champs seed on
Easter morning, said it was a blast to watch
them grow.
The 2014 Safeway World Championship
Pumpkin Weigh-Off leads up to the coast-
sides famous annual Pumpkin Festival
Saturday and Sunday where this years top
contenders will be on display for visitors to
gawk and marvel.
Nurturing the colossal gourds requires
long days pruning off other pumpkins while
burying vines so more roots can be estab-
lished to ensure all the nutrients are dedicat-
ed to the one you hope will be a winner,
Hawkley said.
Nurturing the colossal gourds requires
long days burying leaves and pruning other
pumpkins off the vine to ensure all the
nutrients are dedicated to the one you hope
will be a winner, Hawkley said.
Hawkley said his record-setting pumpkin
led him to cut off 40 to 50 others and was
initially the smaller of two on a vine, but
chose it because he liked the shape better.
Youre all in early, Hawkley said. The
plants are about two months old when you
start pollinating the pumpkins and then its
a matter of 20 days, youve got to make a
decision and youre all in. Its like a gamble
in its purest form.
Hawkleys wager landed him $6 per
pound, or $12, 348, plus a $1, 000 bonus for
growing the largest in the state.
Half Moon Bays annual competition also
awarded $2, 000 to second place winner Rob
Globus from Walnut Creek for his 1, 740
pounder and $1, 000 to third place holder
and last years champ Gary Miller from
Napa for his 1, 393-pound gourd. Eric
Carlsen won over the crowd and took home
$500 for prettiest pumpkin.
A few bumps in the road can make all the
difference for gargantuan gourd growers and
for one man it ended with the disqualifica-
tion of his 1, 828-pound pumpkin that
would have taken home second place.
Russ Pugh brought his pumpkin Godzilla
from Santa Rosa and, just moments before
being weighed, found a squishy hole that
spewed a few seeds and disqualified him.
Its hard, you got to load them up, deal
with bumps in the road and theres many
opportunities to mess up your pumpkin
over the course of the year and it doesnt end
until its on the scale, Pugh said. Its
stressful growing stuff like this, but in a
way, Im relieved that Im done with the sea-
son now. . . . Still, it was an incredible expe-
rience growing it.
Hawkley said he sympathizes with Pugh
and his friends said driving with a massive
pumpkin strapped to the back of his pickup
truck along the Golden Gate Bridge garnered
stares.
Seeing my buddys pumpkin go down,
thats just sickening. Anything this close
to the stage . . . its just terrible and it could
happen to anybody. So we hit a couple
bumps on the way down, a couple railroad
tracks, so I didnt really know until we
picked it up [on the scale], Hawkley said.
Hawkley raised the bar for next year by
setting North Americas new record, but he
missed the worlds title that was set this
month with a 2, 323-pound pumpkin in
Germany.
Why do these growers decided to dedicate
their time on pumpkins? Globus said he
enjoys the camaraderie, Pugh said its
because they have their eyes set on the
world record and Hawkley said he got the
bug after seeing how monstrous pumpkins
can grow.
I tell everybody I grew four pumpkins
last year and barely stayed married. This
year I grew six, so its game on, Hawkley
said. I get up early in the morning and work
on them and I spent a lot of weekends where
I just wouldnt go anywhere.
Hawkleys wife Patty agreed a good chunk
of her husbands time was spent in the field
over the last few months, but seeing him tip
the scale was well worth it.
Its the best feeling. Im so proud of him.
He did such a great job. . . . Hed spent so
much time, its like Wait a minute, do you
know how much you could be doing around
our house? He spent that much time, Patty
Hawkley said. This is crazy, the first 2, 000
pound pumpkin in Half Moon Bay. Its his-
toric, its awesome.
Hawkleys 2, 058-pound pumpkin, the
largest in North America, and the 2014
weigh-off s five heaviest, will be on dis-
play at the annual Half Moon Bay Pumpkin
Festival this Saturday and Sunday from 9
a. m. to 5 p. m. For more information visit

GOURDS
Republican running for state insurance
commissioner, said in a letter to
Covered California Executive Director
Peter Lee.
Even the appearance of well-con-
nected consultants and personal
friends of decision-makers getting bid-
free contracts should not be tolerated,
added Gaines, who has been critical of
the agencys marketing spending.
An Associated Press report Sunday
revealed that Covered California
awarded dozens of contracts without
competitive bidding and oversight
that is standard practice across state
government from late 2010 through
July. Several of those contracts worth
a total of $4. 2 million went to a con-
sulting firm, The Tori Group, whose
founder has strong professional ties to
Lee.
A consumer advocacy group,
Consumer Watchdog, called on the
state attorney general to investigate
whether taxpayer dollars were misused
in the deal. The group, which is behind
a ballot proposition to increase the
state insurance commissioners power
in setting health coverage rates, said a
probe should determine if Covered
California consultants hired under the
no-bid deals used their positions to
advance insurance industry interests.
Attorney General Kamala Harris
office was aware of the request but had
not made a decision on whether to
launch a review.
Awarding no-bid contracts is unusual
in state government, where rules pro-
mote open and fair competition to
give taxpayers the best deal and avoid
ethical conflicts. The practice is gen-
erally reserved for emergencies or
when no known competition exists.
The Legislature gave Covered
California broad authority to award no-
bid contracts to meet federal deadlines
to get the agency running.
The agency emphasized in a state-
ment Friday to AP that Covered
California was under pressure to move
fast and needed specialized skills, and
the deals were executed under guide-
lines it modeled after state contracting
rules.

property tax auditor Shawn Mooney,

requests.
Appointed incumbent Will
Holsinger, charter boat captain Tom
Mattusch and Robert Grant are vying
for a two-year seat on the board.
Whoever county voters elect, com-
missioners will be tasked with the
development of the districts strategic
business plan, face county inquiries
into potential dissolution after a
scathing San Mateo County Civil
Grand Jury report and replacing
General Manager Peter Grenell who
announced hell retire at the end of this
year after 17 years of service.
Collins said shed be a benefit to the
commissioners who need to be more
prepared and focus on business, not
personality conflicts.
I think the district is doing a good
job. I just think they might need
another voice on there to maybe stop
some of the drama, Collins said.
David said she wants to use her mas-
ters degree in marine biology to refo-
cus the districts energy on benefiting
both harbors while promoting fiscal
responsibility and transparency.
I would like to have the opportuni-
ty to bring people together around
safe, healthy and financially well-
managed harbors, David said. I real-
ly care about our coast and the beaches
and would love to work with the com-
mission and have the chance to be an
advocate for the coast and the commu-
nity and the harbors.
Rogers said the district is already
improving and needs to encourage har-
bor events and businesses; but, the
commissioners arent all adhering to
public meeting rules, Rogers said.
I decided it might be better if I were
[a commissioner] because things were
getting pretty out of hand, Rogers
said.
Bernardo, who works for the Port of
Oakland and is seeking re-election
after his first term on the board, said
hell continue to work on four key pri-
orities: paying down the districts
debt, harbor safety, environmental
stewardship and working on the strate-
gic business plan.
I believe the important work we
started four years ago isnt completed
yet and Im also running because I want
to continue to be a voice of reason on
the board. A voice of reason and expe-
rience, Bernardo said.
Tucker spent 16 years on the dis-
tricts board and said its positive work,
like being able to pay off a $19 mil-
lion debt to the state early, is being
overshadowed. Tucker said he wants to
stop paying rent in South San
Francisco and relocate the districts
office to the coast.
Id like to have four more years to,
number one, build ourselves or buy
ourselves a building for administrative
staff at the Pillar Point Harbor side, Id
like to see a visitor center built,
Tucker said. I think weve learned a
lot from our mistakes the last two
years and can move forward and start to
do things on the more progressive
side.
Cant we all just get along?
The district hired a facilitator, who
will wait until after the election to help
the board with its personality con-
flicts.
Bernardo said he wants to be a voice
of logic and is confident there will be
more congeniality and decorum.
As any board in a democratic socie-
ty, its important to have discussions
and that includes arguments from time
to time. However, what youve seen
with the Harbor District board, youve
seen this intense gridlock and it really
does affect the work we do, Bernardo
said.
Collins said shes concerned with
Commissioner Sabrina Brennans
behavior and everyone needs to put
emotions aside and focus on work.
They all need to be prepared and fol-
low the rules and check their personal-
ities at the door so they can get things
done, Collins said.
David said shes hopeful the facilita-
tor will assist and, as a scientist, will
use her objectivity to help.
I would definitely focus on building
bridges between commissioners and
building bridges between the commis-
sioners and the community, David
said. Its important we rebuild the
trust and the fighting definitely gets in
the way of being productive.
Rogers agreed with Collins that all
commissioners need to abide by the
same rules and the district needs a
strong leader to keep them in line.
Tucker said Brennan has been the
source of most of the conflict, but that
hes starting to understand her more
and trusts the facilitator will help.
Shes a great person, she has noth-
ing but the district at heart. But the
problem is she was a community
activist and now shes an elected offi-
cial and she cant seem to make that
transformation, Tucker said.
Finances and supporting the commu-
nity
Tucker said hed like to see a visitor
center on the coast, promote activities
at Oyster Point and the strategic busi-
ness plan will assist in engaging the
public and the commercial fishing
industry. Tucker said the district is
financially strong and said reserves are
there to pay off debt.
Rogers said the district must make
its two harbors a draw such as promot-
ing kayaking or events and capitaliz-
ing on revenue-generating properties.
The district was justified in reevaluat-
ing the commercial fishing leases, he
added.
They do quite a bit to benefit the
fishermen and its been confronted
with anger and hostility, Rogers said.
David said shes concerned about the
districts finances and supporting the
environment is good for business. An
educational center would attract visi-
tors and promoting health fisheries
supports the local industry, David said.
My priorities would definitely be
the responsible spending and trans-
parency and improving that. And also
just a better communication, encourag-
ing public participation and feed-
back, David said.
Bernardo said the district is close to
paying off its substantial debt and
infrastructure maintenance at both
facilities is key. The district raised
leases in part as a response to a previ-
ous civil grand jury report and the rev-
enue will be reinvested into Pillar
Point. Bernardo said he wants the dis-
trict to work to advance the ferry sys-
tem and help generate income through
events at Oyster Point.
Dissolution
The county has considered disband-
ing the district on multiple occasions
and the civil grand jurys recent report
suggested dissolution.
Bernardo said other stakeholders dis-
agree with dissolution and other agen-
cies arent as apt to take on the myriad
district responsibilities.
The very functions of the Harbor
District are so technical in nature that I
dont think a parks department or pub-
lic works department can absorb those
duties, Bernardo said. The important
work that the district does cannot be
outsourced. You basically water
down the prominence and mission of
the district.
Collins said the districts search and
rescue teams save lives, adding that
boaters at both harbors benefit from
the immediate, hands-on control.
David said while she agrees with
many of the findings in the report, she
disagrees with dissolution.
The harbor community wouldnt be
served by handing the district over to
the county, David said. The Harbor
District needs a Board of
Commissioners that leads with enthu-
siasm and takes the interest of the tax-
payers and the interests of the commu-
nity into consideration.
Rogers said much of the report was
flawed and if the district were dis-
solved, the county wouldnt receive
any its tax income but must still take
on duties like search and res-
cue, Rogers said.
The idea we can now go
back and have these groups
step up and do what they
should be doing instead of
the district having to do it,
that would be great. But they
havent, Rogers said.
Tucker said the district
provides direct services to
the commercial boating
industry and with search and
rescue operations, that other
agencies cant. South San
Francisco even noted it pre-
ferred the district continue to
manage the citys marina,
Tucker said.
I take it very seriously
because I think there are
those, probably more so
than before, who would like
to see us dissolved if only to
make the headaches go
away, Tucker said. And
because were in better finan-
cial shape than we were
before.

SEOUL, South Korea North Korean
leader Kim Jong Un, smiling broadly and
supporting himself with a cane, appeared
Tuesday in state media for the first time in
nearly six weeks, ending an absence that fed
global speculation that something was amiss
with the countrys most powerful person.
The sudden resumption of the field guid-
ance tours that had been a regular part of
Kims public persona before he stopped
showing up in media reports for 40 days
allowed the countrys massive propaganda
apparatus to continue doing what it does
best glorifying the third generation of
Kim family rule. And it will tamp down, at
least for the moment, rampant rumors of a
coup and serious health problems.
Kim, while touring the newly built
Wisong Scientists Residential District and
another new institute in Pyongyang, took
necessary steps with loving care, a dis-
patch early Tuesday from the official Korean
Central News Agency said in typical fawn-
ing style. The North didnt say when the
visit happened, nor did it address the
leaders health.
The recent absence was, in part, proba-
bly an attention-getting device and it cer-
tainly works, Bruce Cumings, an expert on
Korea at the University of Chicago, said in
an email.
The North has been on a diplomatic
offensive in Europe and elsewhere, it feels
isolated and is, if were talking about rela-
tions with Washington. All this puts them
back on the front page.
Before Tuesdays dispatch, Kim had last
been seen publicly at a Sept. 3 concert.
Foreign media had no trouble filling the
void that followed. From Saturday Night
Live spoofs to the wild theories of journal-
ists across the globe trying to parse his
growing absence from the public eye, Kim
captured nearly as many headlines as he did
when he threatened to nuke his enemies last
year.
This ability to command attention by
doing nothing says a lot about the Norths
propaganda focus on Kim as the center of
everything. Remove for 40 days the sun
around which that propaganda spins and the
international media, both traditional and
social, exploded with curiosity.
And while there was plenty of informed
analysis from experts and frequent visitors
to Pyongyang that said it probably wasnt
anything that serious, there seemed to be
even more thinly sourced speculation.
Kim was, by turns, reported to be suffer-
ing from gout, from diabetes, from a brain
hemorrhage, from a heart ailment, from a
leg injury that required surgery from a
French doctor, from mental illness or,
according to a head-turning British report,
from a cheese addiction. There were rumors
of a coup.
The speculation was partly a result of Kim
missing several high-profile events that he
normally attends and his description in an
official documentary last month as experi-
encing discomfort. Archive footage from
August showed him overweight and limping.
The South Korean government, however,
saw no signs to indicate any major prob-
lems.
At a South Korean parliamentary hearing
Monday, Choi Yoon-hee, head of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, told a lawmaker that what-
ever health problems Kim might have, they
are not severe enough to disrupt his status
as the ruler of the country.
No unusual troop movements or other
signs of a possible coup have emerged.
Diplomacy at the highest level has contin-
ued: Three members of his inner circle made
a surprise visit to the South, something
analysts say would be impossible without
the leaders blessing. Foreign tourists and
aid workers are still traveling to the North,
and there have been no reports of new
restrictions or warnings for diplomats.
Theres also nothing particularly unusual
about North Korean leaders laying low for
extended periods. Kims grandfather, Kim Il
Sung, and father, Kim Jong Il, both took
long, unexplained breaks from work, often
leading to similar rumors in Seoul and
beyond of coups and sudden death. Kim
Jong Un, who seems to genuinely like
being at the center of things, took off with-
out a word for three weeks in 2012.
Part of the interest in Kims absence also
stemmed from worries about what would
happen to the country if the leader died
without securing a succession.
