By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Residents interested in shaping

the future of Burlingame will have
an opportunity this weekend to
share the vision they have for
their community as officials
begin working to update the citys
general plan.

City officials will hold a workshop Saturday, Oct. 24, to kick off
the updates planning process and
gather community input from 10
a. m. until 2 p. m. in the
Burlingame Recreation Center,
850 Burlingame Ave.
The workshop marks the first
step in a multi-year process which
ultimately led to the development

of a document which will define

policy regulating the most important issues facing the future of
Burlingame,
said
Planning
Manager Kevin Gardiner.
This is more or less the master
plan for the community, and sets
the direction for policies that have
a lot to do with peoples lives in
the city, said Gardiner. Its sort

of a top-level document that sets

the direction for a lot of things.
The general plan was last
changed in 1969, and is due for an
update, said City Manager Lisa
Goldman in an email.
While the general plan has
served Burlingame well, were
interested in asking todays residents and business community

members
what
they
want
Burlingame to look and feel like
for the next 25 years, she said.
This Saturdays community workshop is one of many opportunities
for people to get involved in

Robble robble robbed: Missing
Ronald McDonald statue found
NORTHAMPTON, Mass. A
Ronald McDonald statue hamburgled
from a western Massachusetts home
during a teenage house party has
been found.
The three-foot high statue of the
McDonalds mascot was turned over
to Northampton police Wednesday
by a McDonalds employee who
found it next to a trash bin outside a
health club.
That person turned it over when he
read about the missing statue in The
Daily Hampshire Gazette.
Mary Ryan says her husband
bought the sculpture of a kneeling
Ronald from an antique store years
ago for $1,200. They think it dates
to 1972.
It disappeared in August when their

Idaho agency finds historic

footage of parachuting beavers
BOISE, Idaho More than half a
century after a group of beavers
p arach ut ed i n t o t h e Idah o b ack country, officials have uncovered
footage of the quirky wildlife man-

agement moment.
The Idaho Department of Fish and
Game was struggling with an overpopulation of beavers in some
regions in the 1940s when wildlife
managers settled on a novel idea.
They captured beavers and other furry
rodents, packed them into special
travel boxes, attached parachutes and
dropped them from a plane into the
Frank Church River of No Return
Wilderness.
Animal lovers, take heart it
appears all the beavers made it
through their flying adventures
unharmed.
The film made around 1950 and
dubbed Fur for the Future showed
the infamous beaver drops, but it had
long been lost, Boise State Public
Radio reported Thursday.
Fish and Game historian Sharon
Clark recently uncovered the fragile
film, which had been mislabeled and
stored in the wrong file. It has been
digitized and released on YouTube by
the department and the Idaho
Historical Society.
Trapping
and
transplanting
beavers still happens today but in
less dramatic fashion.
We havent done airplane drops
for 50-plus years, but it apparently
worked pretty well back then to reestablish them in remote places,
said Steve Nadeau, Fish and Games
statewide fur bearer manager.

State agency typo sends callers

BOSTON The words free and

Yet a typo in a phone number on a
news release issued by the agency
Wednesday sent media inquiries to a

The Boston Herald reports that the
release declaring October as Cyber

of 857 in a spokesmans number.
Department chief of staff Dominick

typo since nothing is free and fun in

No wood burning devices in new homes

Property owners escape having to change out heaters, fireplaces at point of sale
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Starting next fall, wood-burning devices

will be forbidden in newly constructed homes
built in the Bay Area under new rules adopted
by the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District.
Absent from the list of new rules adopted
Wednesday, however, was a proposal to
require property owners to be forced to replace
wood-burning devices like stoves or fireplaces with cleaner-burning appliances when
they sell their homes, an idea fervently
opposed by the San Mateo County
Association of Realtors, or SAMCAR.
The fine particulate matter from wood
smoke is the largest source of wintertime air
pollution in the Bay Area, according to the air
quality district.
Regulations against wood burning have
been on the books since the 1980s, said
Energy House owner Alan Karcich.
His company moved toward selling and
installing gas and non-polluting devices
years ago, he said.
And there is barely any new construction
taking place in the Bay Area now that features
wood-burning stoves or fireplaces, Karcich
said.
One day, it may be illegal to burn wood at
all, he said.
It is a good thing. The Bay Area is a lot
better today than it was 10 years ago,
Karcich said about air quality.
SAMCAR argued the cost to replace a single stove or fireplace could climb as high as
$25,000 and would be too big of a burden on

property owners at the point of sale.
The air district board is comprised of officials from the Bay Areas nine counties. Daly
City Councilman David Canepa represents
the county and Carole Groom, president of
the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors,
chairs the 22-person board.
The district conducted extensive public outreach before adopting the new policies,
Canepa said.
Repeatedly, the board heard from the public
that the point-of-sale provision could impede
home sales and be a form of government
intrusion, Canepa said.
The board, however, did adopt new policies
that will reduce pollution and improve air
quality in the entire region, Canepa said.
By strengthening these rules, it protects
residents in a respectful way that doesnt
infringe on the rights of homeowners,
Canepa said Thursday.
The changes to the air districts wood burning regulation tighten exemptions and
requirements from the original rule adopted in
July 2008.
A $3 million grant program is under development that will provide at least 50 percent
or more funding for residents to change out
from older wood-burning devices to better and
more effective home heating equipment,
according to the district.
Other changes the air district adopted

include a sole source of heat exemption for

those who do not have central or other
sources of heating.
Individuals who claim that wood is the sole
source of heat in their homes will have to
switch to a Environmental Protection
Agency-certified stove.
The new rules, approved unanimously, also
require that home sellers with a wood-burning
stove or fireplace to disclose the health risks
wood smoke poses to prospective buyers.
We appreciate that the Bay Area Air
Quality Management District heard our concerns and the concerns of the community with
the proposed fireplace ban. We will be working hard to ensure sellers comply with the
new disclosure, Gina Zari, SAMCARs government affairs director wrote in an email.
Individuals can also be cited for exceeding
visible emissions limits.
If a home produces a profuse amount of
smoke that lasts more than three minutes, a
citation can also be issued.
The air district will open a change-out grant
program for fireplaces and wood-burning
stoves in the spring of 2016. Funding priority will go to low-income residents and high
wood smoke impact areas.
The Bay Area Air Quality Management
District is the regional agency responsible
for protecting air quality in the nine-county
Bay Area.
In addition, the board issued a resolution
directing staff to reconvene in five years with
a proposal to ban all wood burning on winter

Man pleads no contest for cane

assault in church parking lot
An East Palo Alto man charged with the
unprovoked attack of a priest and three others at a church parking lot last summer
pleaded no contest to the crime Wednesday
in a San Mateo County courtroom.
Juan Antonio Perez, 41, is charged with
felony elder abuse and felony assault for the
July incident, according to prosecutors.
On July 13, Perez, who was under the
influence
of
methamphetamine,
approached the victim, an 89-year-old
priest, as he walked through the parking lot
of St. Francis De Assisi Church, located at
1425 Bay Road in East Palo Alto, prosecutors said.
The elderly victim was using a metal cane
to walk. Perez took the victims cane from
him and began beating the victim with it
until it broke, according to prosecutors.
A witness tried to stop the attack by
attempting to disarm Perez. Perez, however, struck the witness with the remaining
part of the cane. Perez then fled on foot,
prosecutors said.
Two brothers who also witnessed the
assault attempted to pursue Perez. Perez
struck one of the brothers with the cane,
before taking multiple swings at the other
brother. The two brothers were ultimately
able to subdue Perez until police arrived,

Sometime before the crash, Sareen
arrived in the aircraft from Bahrain. He was
headed back to the Marine Corps Air
Station Miramar in Southern California,
along with five other aircrafts, following a
six-month deployment, Marine Corps officials said.
Its a tragic situation and as a coach, you
never want something like that to happen.
These are tough things to swallow,

Republicans of resorting to gimmicks and prohibiting other

falls woefully short, Obama said.
Im going to be sending it back to
Congress, and my message to them
is very simple: Lets do this right.
In no mood to negotiate,
Republicans vowed to muster the
votes to override him.
The rare presidential veto marked
the latest wrinkle in the ongoing
fight
between
Obama and
Republicans who control Congress
over whether to increase federal
spending and how.

Four years after Congress passed

and Obama signed into law strict,
across-the-board spending limits,
both parties are eager to bust
through the caps for defense spending. But Obama has insisted that
spending on domestic programs be
raised at the same time, setting off
a budget clash with Republicans
that shows no signs of a quick resolution.
To sidestep the budget caps,
known in Washington as sequestration, lawmakers added an extra
$38.3 billion to a separate account
for wartime operations that is
immune to the spending limits.

WASHINGTON Rep. Paul

Ryan formally declared his candidacy for speaker of the U.S. House
Thursday evening, pledging in a
letter to GOP colleagues, We have
an opportunity to turn the page.
Instead of rising to the occasion, Washington is falling
shortincluding the House of
Representatives. We are not solving the countrys problems; we are
only adding to them, he wrote. It
is time, he said, to start with a
clean slate, and to rebuild what has
been lost.
Ryan will face elections next
week in a closed-door House GOP
meeting on Wednesday and then
on the House floor Thursday. His
success is assured.
Awaiting him will be a mess of
trouble: a Nov. 3 deadline to raise
the federal borrowing limit or face
unprecedented default, and a Dec.

11 deadline to
act on mustpass spending
legislation or
court a government shutdown.
Despite initial reluctance,
Ryan told colleagues he was

hard and get it done, and I think

eager to be our speaker.
Ryan, 45, the Republicans

under pressure from GOP leaders
who saw him as their only hope of
bringing order to a House GOP
careening out of control.

Senate bill could cut nonviolent

drug offenders prison sentences
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Nonviolent
drug offenders could be eligible for
shorter prison sentences under
legislation approved by a Senate
panel Thursday, as Congress took
initial steps to change the
nations criminal justice system.
On a vote of 15-5, the Judiciary
Committee approved a bill to give
judges discretion to give lesser
sentences than federal mandatory
minimums in some cases. The
measure would eliminate mandatory life sentences for three-time,
nonviolent drug offenders, reducing minimum sentences for those
offenders to 25 years. It also would

create programs to help prisoners

successfully re-enter society.
In a rare display of bipartisanship, the legislation is backed by
Senate Judiciary Committee
Chairman Charles Grassley, RIowa, and the senior Democrat on
the panel, Vermont Sen. Patrick
Leahy. Texas Sen. John Cornyn,
the No. 2 Republican in the
Senate, and Illinois Sen. Dick
Durbin, the No. 2 Democrat, are
also supporters.
The legislation also has the
backing of the Obama administration and former Attorney General
Michael Mukasey, who served
under President George W. Bush.

Four years after Congress passed

both parties are eager to bust

spending on domestic programs be
raised at the same time, setting off
a budget clash with Republicans
that shows no signs of a quick resolution.
To sidestep the budget caps,
known in Washington as sequestration, lawmakers added an extra

WASHINGTON Rep. Paul

Ryan formally declared his candidacy for speaker of the U.S. House
Thursday evening, pledging in a
letter to GOP colleagues, We have
an opportunity to turn the page.
Instead of rising to the occasion, Washington is falling
shortincluding the House of
Representatives. We are not solving the countrys problems; we are
only adding to them, he wrote. It
is time, he said, to start with a
clean slate, and to rebuild what has
been lost.
Ryan will face elections next
week in a closed-door House GOP
meeting on Wednesday and then
on the House floor Thursday. His
success is assured.
Awaiting him will be a mess of
trouble: a Nov. 3 deadline to raise
the federal borrowing limit or face
unprecedented default, and a Dec.

11 deadline to
act on mustpass spending
legislation or
court a government shutdown.
Despite initial reluctance,
Ryan told colleagues he was
Paul Ryan
excited for the
opportunity at hand.
I know youre willing to work
hard and get it done, and I think
this moment is ripe for real
reform, he wrote. I believe we
are ready to move forward as a one,
united team. And I am ready and
eager to be our speaker.
Ryan, 45, the Republicans
2012 vice presidential nominee,
was an unwilling candidate for
speaker, dragged into the contest
under pressure from GOP leaders
who saw him as their only hope of
bringing order to a House GOP
careening out of control.

Senate bill could cut nonviolent

drug offenders prison sentences
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Nonviolent
drug offenders could be eligible for
shorter prison sentences under
legislation approved by a Senate
panel Thursday, as Congress took
initial steps to change the
nations criminal justice system.
On a vote of 15-5, the Judiciary
Committee approved a bill to give
judges discretion to give lesser
sentences than federal mandatory
minimums in some cases. The
measure would eliminate mandatory life sentences for three-time,
nonviolent drug offenders, reducing minimum sentences for those
offenders to 25 years. It also would

create programs to help prisoners

successfully re-enter society.
In a rare display of bipartisanship, the legislation is backed by
Senate Judiciary Committee
Chairman Charles Grassley, RIowa, and the senior Democrat on
the panel, Vermont Sen. Patrick
Leahy. Texas Sen. John Cornyn,
the No. 2 Republican in the
Senate, and Illinois Sen. Dick
Durbin, the No. 2 Democrat, are
also supporters.
The legislation also has the
backing of the Obama administration and former Attorney General
Michael Mukasey, who served
under President George W. Bush.

Major drug tunnel found on
U.S.-Mexico border in California
SAN DIEGO Authorities seized 12 tons of marijuana
and arrested 22 people after discovering one of the longest
cross-border tunnels between the U.S. and Mexico, officials
said Thursday.
The passage connecting warehouses in San Diego and
Tijuana, Mexico, was about 2,400 feet long and 30 feet
deep. It was lit, ventilated and equipped with a rail system
hallmarks of the most sophisticated tunnels found along
the border.
Near-simultaneous police stings on Wednesday resulted in
six arrests in San Diego and 16 in Mexico. Authorities
recovered two tons of marijuana in the U.S. and 10 tons in
Mexico.
U.S. authorities said smugglers tried to move the first
load of drugs through the tunnel on Wednesday but that
nothing got through undetected.
The sting came after an undercover agent for U. S.
Homeland Security Investigations agreed to provide the
drug smugglers with drivers and use of a warehouse in
exchange for a $10,000 payment for each truckload of drugs
moved, according to a probable cause statement.
The discovery demonstrates the enduring appeal of tunnels to smugglers, despite the significant time and money
required to build one. Dozens of tunnels have been found
along the U. S. -Mexico border in recent years, some
equipped with hydraulic lifts and electric rail cars.

California eyes people

eligible for health care subsidies
SACRAMENTO Heading into a third enrollment season with less fanfare and a more modest budget, California
health exchange officials said Thursday they will strategically target about 750,000 uninsured people who qualify for
health insurance subsidies but havent signed up for coverage.
The agency will spend $29 million on an advertising
campaign aimed at lower-income and middle-class residents
who dont know theres help available to pay for health
insurance, Covered California Executive Director Peter Lee
said. That compares to a $43 million advertising budget
last year and $55 million the first year.
In addition, Covered California will host enrollment
drives at more than 500 storefronts as well as clinics and
hospitals throughout the state.
A bus tour will begin in Los Angeles on Nov. 1, the first
day of the three-month enrollment season.
Its big news that Californians still dont know the
basics that they can get financial help to get coverage, Lee
said Thursday in a call with reporters.
The state-run health exchange launched in October 2013
under the federal Affordable Care Act. It offers sliding-scale
subsidies for private coverage to people with no access to
health care on the job and directs low-income people to
Medi-Cal, the states health program for the poor.
As a result, California has reduced the number of uninsured by millions.

Peace mural where

Oakland artist was killed is completed
OAKLAND Volunteers have completed the anti-violence mural that an Oakland artist was working on when he
was shot and killed.
The street-side mural was dedicated to Antonio Ramos,
who was helping paint it for a group that works to spread
peace and stop violence.
The 27-year-old Ramos was among about 10 artists who
were working on the project.
He reportedly quarreled with a man on Sept. 29 who wasnt part of the group. Police say the disagreement escalated,
and the man shot Ramos and ran off. No one else was
injured.
Friends and family went to the site Wednesday for a celebration of Ramos life.
Oakland police are offering a reward of up to $10,000 for
information leading to the arrest of Ramos killer.

middle schools are old. And
the district has been through
the wringer with school nancing
seeing its budget go from $95 million
a year to $78 million, then back up
but with more specic categories on
which to spend the money. District
ofcials say it is estimated that it will
return to 2007 funding levels in
2020. There is little room to squirrel
away money for maintenance, and
often what is saved is used for emergency purposes such as when a sinkhole opened at one of its schools.
While someone who is suspicious of
school district spending may say
more money should be going to facilities, the district has struggled to
ensure class sizes stay low and there
are sufcient numbers of teachers for
the diverse and dynamic district.

Redwood City schools have been

patched together long enough and
while it is an interesting exercise to
question spending and priorities when
it comes to facilities, the fact of the
matter is that the district has had its
priorities in the right place in making
sure whatever funding is available
goes to the classroom. The modernday reality is that facility upgrades are
not funded by the state and each community has to decide if having modern
schools where students can learn and
teachers can innovate is worth the
cost of a bond measure. In this case,
this measure is worth it. Quality
schools means quality neighborhoods
and that means higher property values
and a better community overall.
Measure T seeks to address facilities
that are sometimes beautiful but no
longer serving the communitys
needs. An upgrade is in order. Vote yes
on Measure T.

The math of building a new
community center in Burlingame
Editor,
A major issue facing Burlingame is
how to address approximately $100
million of unfunded infrastructure
projects, including a possible new
community center. Indeed, the question of how to fund a new community
center was posed during a recent City
Council candidates forum. However,
different cost estimates $15 million and $40 million were cited by
two respective council candidates.
I subsequently conrmed the estimated cost with Burlingames director
of Parks and Recreation. She conrmed $15 million refers to the current estimated cost of the new building itself. However, the new building

cannot be constructed without necessary site work, which includes relocation of the current playground and
creating dedicated parking. The current estimated cost of this site work
is between $8.9 million and $10.5
million. Additionally, estimated soft
costs for the project total between
$7.7 million and $8.2 million. Thus,
the total current estimated cost of the
new community center is approximately $32 million to $34 million.
However, the Parks and Recreation
director also indicated these estimates
do not include the cost of a temporary
facility while the new building is
being constructed.
And should the city need to issue
voter-approved bonds to nance the
entire project, these estimates do not
include bond interest, which a new

Choosing local power

in San Mateo County
By Dave Pine and Carole Groom

ommunities throughout California and the

nation are embracing Community Choice
Energy as an effective means to not only purchase cleaner energy but to also develop new renewable
energy sources and programs that reduce greenhouse
gasses, all under local control.

What is Community Choice Energy?

Community Choice Energy allows local governments
to pool the electricity demand of their
residential, business and municipal
customers to purchase or develop
power on their behalf.
CCE is focused on the power generation side of the energy equation and
requires a partnership with the utility
in our case Pacific Gas and Electric.
Power delivery, grid maintenance, customer metering/billing and customer
Dave Pine
service functions remain with PG&E.
So the move to CCE would be virtually invisible to customers but the environmental, community and consumer
benefits would be considerable.
Once it is launched, CCE becomes
the default electricity provider, and all
customer accounts are automatically
enrolled. Customers continue to
receive and pay their bills to PG&E.
However, customers always have the
Carole Groom
clear and simple choice to opt out at
any time and return to PG&E service.

Has it ever been done before in California?

There are three successfully operating CCE programs
in the state of California: Marin Clean Energy, Sonoma
Clean Power and Lancaster Choice Energy. With these
public programs leading the way, numerous communities throughout the state, including San Francisco,
Alameda County and portions of Santa Clara County, are
now considering CCE. Why? Because CCE delivers significant benefits, including:
Cleaner power supply;
Competitive electricity rates;
Better rates for customers who generate their own
power and sell back surplus energy;
Direct investments into local energy programs such
as energy efficiency upgrades, electric vehicle charging
stations and energy storage;
New renewable power development, both locally and
statewide; and
New local jobs.
These benefits have been achieved without public subsidy or additional cost to taxpayers because CCE programs are revenue-supported as all utilities are and
require no public funds to operate.

Whats happening in San Mateo County?

The Peninsula Clean Energy Advisory Committee,
now in its sixth month, has been meeting to discuss the
development of a local CCE program for our county. The
advisory committee is comprised of county and city
leaders, and representatives from a range of community
organizations and businesses. Over the next several
months, the county and cities will be considering starting a CCE program with a projected launch date of
August 2016.
We want you to be informed about CCE and we invite
your participation as the program is developed our
advisory committee meetings are open to the public,
and information is available on the Peninsula Clean
Energy website at peninsulacleanenergy.com.
A CCE program offers new tools to meet increasingly
urgent carbon emission reduction goals, while maintaining competitive rates and providing significant benefits
for the local economy. We urge the residents and businesses of San Mateo County to learn more about CCE
and to support this important initiative.

Thursday from a two-day slump, notching its biggest gain in more than two
weeks and pushing the Dow Jones
industrial average up more than 300
points.
The gains brought the Standard &
Poors 500 index nearly back to
breakeven for the year following steep
declines in August and September.
Industrials stocks were among the
indexs biggest gainers.
The rally followed a batch of encouraging earnings from McDonalds, eBay
and other companies. Alphabet,
Microsoft and Amazon also delivered
better-than-expected results shortly
after the close of regular trading.
News that the European Central Bank
could consider expanding its stimulus
program in December also helped rally
the market. Such a move could help
stimulate spending in the region, a
plus for U.S. companies struggling
with declining overseas revenue, said
Bob Doll, chief equity strategist at
Nuveen Asset Management.
Weve had some pretty good earnings in a season that so far has been
mixed, Doll said. Then you layer
some chatter out from the ECB, and all
the uncertainty and skepticism and

negativism, and the mass amount of

cash on the sidelines, and it doesnt
take much to get a rally going.
The Dow climbed 320.55 points, or
1.9 percent, to 17,489.16. The S&P
500 index rose 33.57 points, or 1.7
percent, to 2,052.51. The last time the
Dow and S&P 500 delivered bigger single-day gains was Oct. 5.
The Nasdaq added 79.93 points, or
1.7 percent, to 4,920.05.
A surge in European stocks set the
stage for the three major U.S. stock
indexes to go higher early on Thursday.
Mario Draghi, head of the European
Central Bank, signaled that the bank
could boost monetary stimulus at its
meeting in December. That raised
expectations that the ECB might
extend its $1.2 trillion bond purchase
program. Draghi also said that the ECB
was also considering other measures,
such as further cutting one of its key
interest rates.
The market was in a tight trading
range leading up to todays move to the
upside, waiting for a catalyst in
essence to push the market in one
direction or the other, said Quincy
Krosby, a market strategist at
Prudential Financial. And you can see
clearly that the Draghi comments were
very positively received by the market.
Beyond that, investors pored over

the latest slate of company earnings,

which helped put them in a buying
mood.
Traders bid up eBay, which reported
earnings late Wednesday that came in
well ahead of what analysts were
expecting. The e-commerce company
jumped $3.37, or 13.9 percent, to
$27.58.
McDonalds climbed 8.1 percent
after the worlds largest burger chain
handily beat Wall Street estimates and
said its sales increased in the third quarter. McDonalds shares added $8.33 to
$110.87.
Texas Instruments earnings also
beat projections. The company also
gave an upbeat outlook for the current
quarter. The stock vaulted $6.19, or
11.9 percent, to $58.09.
Some companies turned in disappointing results, which sent their share
prices tumbling.
Homebuilder PulteGroup fell $1.29,
or 6.6 percent, to $18.16. American
Express slid 5.2 percent a day after the
credit card issuer reported a 16 percent
drop in profits and cut its full-year forecast. The stock lost $4.01 to $72.50.
U.S. companies have been struggling to drum up sales overseas amid a
stronger dollar, which makes their
products less competitive, and
decreased demand due to a sluggish
global economy.

Google opens Alphabet era with 3Q report that lifts stock

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Google received an

A from investors for its third-quarter
report that ushered the Internet search leader
into a new era under Alphabet, its recently
formed parent company.
The numbers released Thursday indicated
that Google is making significant strides in
the increasingly important mobile-device
market, with its earnings surging 45 percent
to nearly $4 billion, or $5.73 per share.
Ruth Porat, Alphabets chief financial
officer, cited improvements in mobile
search and more mobile traffic on Googles
YouTube video site as keys to the quarter.
Alphabet, which replaced Google as a
publicly traded stock earlier this month,
won extra credit by announcing plans to
spend nearly $5.1 billion buying its own
shares over an unspecified period. Buying
back stock is something Google never did

in its 11-year history as a publicly traded

company.
The third-quarter gains also reflected the
financial discipline that has been imposed
by Porat, who made it clear she intended to
curb spending shortly after joining Google
in May. Googles operating expenses in the
third quarter rose at slightly slower pace
than net revenue, helping to fatten profit
margins.
Googles revenue for the three months
ending in September totaled $18.7 billion.
After subtracting ad commissions, revenue
totaled $15.1 billion, a 15 percent increase
from last year.
Both the third-quarter earnings and revenue topped the analysts projections that
steer investors expectations.
Alphabets Class C stock soared $62.86,
or 9 percent, to $744. If the shares hit that
level in Fridays regular session, it will be a
new high for the stock.
The report covered a three-month period

ending marked Googles final quarter as a

public company. Google now is a subsidiary
of Alphabet, which was created to oversee
the hodgepodge of businesses that have
been launched with the tens of billions of
dollars that Google has made as the
Internets dominant search engine.
In January, Alphabet will report Googles
financial numbers separately from a group
of peripheral businesses that experiment
with self-driving cars, invest in startups,
make Internet-connected thermostats and
search for cures to health problems.
That breakdown is expected to reveal how
much money Google would have been making in recent years if it hadnt been diverting
billions of dollars to finance risky projects
that Alphabet CEO Larry Page calls moon
shots.
Page, Googles co-founder, had been the
companys CEO until Alphabets birth.
Googles new CEO, Sundar Pichai, assured
analysts during a Thursday conference call

that the company is just beginning to

scratch the service .... Our vision is for
Google to remain a place of incredible creativity and innovation that uses a unique
technical expertise to tackle big problems.
Googles profit margins have been
squeezed by the shift to mobile devices from
laptop and desktop computers during the
past five years. The company was better
prepared for the upheaval than most of its
technology peers because it had the foresight to build and develop Android, a
mobile operating system that features
Googles search engine, maps, email and
YouTube video site.
Even though Android is being used on 1.4
billion devices around the world, Google
still has been hurt by the move to mobile.
Thats because advertisers havent been as
willing to pay as much for marketing messages shown on the smaller screens of
smartphones.

Fresh & Easy grocery
chain to shutter all of its stores

Volkswagen CEO Matthias Mueller and Stephan Wei, center, Prime Minister of Lower Saxony and member of the VW Supervisory
board look at the Golf 7 production line during a tour of the VW factory in Wolfsburg, Germany.

TORRANCE Fresh & Easy will shutter all 97 of its

remaining stores in California, Arizona and Nevada and
cease operations after nearly a decade of struggling to catch
on with consumers.
The grocery chain headquartered in Torrance, California,
announced Wednesday that all 3,000 of its employees will
be laid off, the Daily Breeze newspaper reported.
Over the last two years, we have been working hard to
build a new Fresh & Easy, the company said in a statement.
While we made progress on stemming our losses and moving the business closer to break even, unfortunately, we
have been unable to obtain financing and the liquidity necessary to fund the business going forward.
The company closed about 50 of its stores in March in the
three states where it operates, trimming its number of outlets by about a third.
Fresh & Easy made a big splash in 2007, backed by
British supermarket giant Tesco, which saw an opportunity
to enter the U.S. market.
Its smaller store format of about 10,000 square feet was
aimed at time-pressed consumers who could quickly grab
fresh food for dinner on the way home and use self-service
checkouts.
California-based The Yucaipa Cos. bought the chain out
of bankruptcy in 2013.
The first layoffs are expected a week from Friday, the
newspaper said.

Scandal keeps VWs U.S. sales forecast flat

European Central Bank

opens door to more stimulus

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT After some summer

gains, Volkswagens U.S. sales seem to
have stalled amid revelations it cheated
on emissions tests.
Volkswagen Groups sales are expected to be flat in October, even as total
U.S. sales rise 8 percent for one of the
best Octobers in more than a decade,
according to data from J.D. Power and
Associates obtained by the Associated
Press.
J.D. Power combines all the brands
Volkswagen AG sells in the U. S. ,
including
Audi,
Porsche,
Lamborghini and Bentley. Its forecast
is a sign that surging sales of the
German automakers luxury brands
arent making up for a slowdown for
the Volkswagen brand.
Volkswagen admitted last month that
it had cheated on emissions tests using
software installed on 482,000 diesel

vehicles in the U.S. and 11 million

worldwide.
VW Dealers have been forced to stop
selling four diesel models affected by
the emissions probe the 2009
through 2015 Golf, Jetta, Passat and
Audi A3. The scandal comes as about
one in four VW dealers are struggling to
turn a profit according to the head of a
group that represents U.S. dealerships.
Others forecasters echoed the J.D.
Power estimates. Car-shopping site
Edmunds.com predicted Thursday that
Volkswagen brand sales will be flat in
October, but said industry sales could
jump as much as 11.5 percent over last
October. Volkswagen and other
automakers are scheduled to report U.S.
sales on Nov. 3.
Many Volkswagen dealers in the U.S.
are disappointed. After years of complaining to Germany that their vehicles
were too expensive and not tailored to
Americans tastes, things seemed to turn
around in May with the arrival of the

new Volkswagen Golf. Group sales

jumped 8.5 percent, according to J.D.
Power, and also rose sharply in June and
July.
We had some cadence going and their
fear is that were going to lose our forward momentum, said Alan Brown of
his fellow Volkswagen dealers. Brown
runs two dealerships in Texas and represents all 652 Volkswagen dealerships in
the U.S. as chairman of the Volkswagen
National Dealer Advisory Council.
Brown said even before the scandal,
around a quarter of U.S. Volkswagen
dealers were struggling to make a profit.
Before the sales halt, diesels accounted
for around 25 percent of U.S. sales.
Steve
Kalafer,
chairman
of
Flemington
Volkswagen
in
Flemington, New Jersey, got a letter
from one customer whose daughter was
so distraught about the scandal that she
wanted to remove the Volkswagen
badge, as well as one that signals the car
is a diesel.

UAW approves new contract with Fiat Chrysler

By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT The United Auto

Workers union has approved a new
four-year contract with Fiat Chrysler.
UAW members at Fiat Chryslers
U.S. factories voted 77 percent in
favor of the agreement, the union said.
The contract covers 40,000 workers at
23 U.S. factories.
It was the second time in a month
that Fiat Chrysler workers voted on a
contract. A previous deal was soundly
rejected largely because it didnt eliminate a much-hated two-tiered pay system. The new agreement gives raises

to all workers and eliminates the two

tiers over eight years.
Fiat Chrysler said in a statement that
it was pleased that the contract passed.
UAW President Dennis Williams said
the agreement boosts wages and gives
members job security while still
allowing the company to competitively produce high quality vehicles.
The union will use the Fiat Chrysler
deal as a template for talks with Ford
and General Motors. It was unclear
Thursday whether the union would pick
one company to focus on or try to
negotiate with both.
Williams says Ford and GM make
more money and should be able to pay

more, a statement that conflicts with

company goals of cutting labor costs
to bring them more in line with foreign automakers with U.S. factories.
The new agreement with Fiat
Chrysler gradually eliminates the
tiered pay system that the union agreed
to in 2007 when all three Detroit
automakers were in financial trouble,
bringing all U.S. factory workers to
the same wage over eight years. But
members have resented the varying
pay, and the companys current CEO,
Sergio Marchionne who took over
when Chrysler merged with Italian
automaker Fiat in 2009 has called
the two-tier wages unsustainable.

VALLETTA, Malta Citing worries about China and

developing markets, the head of the European Central Bank
on Thursday signaled it could increase monetary stimulus to
the eurozone at a meeting in December.
The remarks by Mario Draghi raised expectations the
bank might extend its 1.1 trillion euro ($1.2 trillion) bond
purchase program aimed at raising inflation and helping a
spotty recovery.
Draghi made it clear that the ECB was also considering
other measures, such as further cutting one of its key interest rates.
We are ready to act if needed, he said after a policy meeting in Malta.
The ECBs governing council, he added, had a very rich
discussion and was open to a whole menu of monetary
policy instruments.
Jennifer McKeown, senior European economist at Capital
Economics, wrote in a note to investors that this was
about the strongest hint that the president could have made
that action is imminent.
The bigger question is, just what the bank will do.
The euro fell sharply on the news, as more monetary stimulus or lower rates tend to weigh on a currency.

Russia has military

might in Syria, also
pushes diplomacy
By Vladimir Isachenkov
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HEMEIMEEM AIR BASE, Syria

As Russia unleashed waves of
warplanes Thursday from this air
base in western Syria to pound
militant
targets,
President
Vladimir Putin pushed diplomatic
efforts with the West, stressing
the need to consider each other as
allies in a common fight.
Russia put its military muscle
on display, bringing Moscowbased reporters to view a days
worth of fighter jets roaring off a
runway in dozens of sorties as helicopter gunships patrolled the
edges of the sprawling facility.
Russian Foreign Minister
Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary
of State John Kerry will meet
Friday in Vienna, joined by their
counterparts from Saudi Arabia and
Turkey, both staunch critics of

Pres i den t
Bashar Assad.
Lavrov said
he wanted to
provide firsthand information about the
Russian
air
camp ai g n
Vladimir Putin against Islamic
State militants
in Syria, but also talk about a
future political process in the
country that is now in its fifth
year of civil war.
The U. S. and other Western
powers have questioned Russias
primary motive in the airstrikes
that began Sept. 30 and have
backed up a Syrian government
offensive in central and northwestern regions. Moscow says it
is fighting IS and other extremist
groups like the al-Qaida-linked
Nusra Front, but Washington and

others say the intervention is to
prop up Assad and is likely to fan
the violence.
The intervention is also allowing Russia to portray itself as a
major global player, projecting
its military power far from its borders.
Assad met Tuesday with Putin in
a surprise visit to Moscow to discuss the military operations. In a
speech Thursday at a conference in
Russias southern resort of Sochi,

Putin said Syrias leaders should

establish working contacts with
those opposition forces that are
ready for dialogue.
As I understood from my conversation with President Assad the
day before yesterday, he is ready
for such a dialogue, Putin added.
A military victory over the militants will not solve all problems, but it will create conditions
for the main thing: a beginning of
a political process to encompass

all healthy, patriotic forces of the

Syrian society, Putin said.
His words echoed those of
Syrian government officials who
have expressed readiness to negotiate with the patriotic opposition a term generally used to
describe
unarmed,
mostly
Damascus-based government critics who are tolerated by Assad.
Putin also said Russia and the
West are establishing contacts to
coordinate their operations.

Bombing at Shiite mosque kills 10 in southwest Pakistan

By Abdul Sattar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

QUETTA, Pakistan A suicide

bomber targeted a Shiite mosque
in southwest Pakistan on
Thursday, killing at least 10 people and wounding several others, a

government official said.

Provincial home minister
Sarfraz Bugti said the attack took
place in the district of Sibi, about
200 kilometers (120 miles) southeast of Quetta, the capital of
Baluchistan province. He said the
suicide attacker entered the

mosque as Shiites were holding a

gathering ahead of the Ashoura, a
key religious event.
Six children were among those
killed, Bugti said. The male suicide bomber was wearing a
womans head-to-toe burqa dress
to deceive guards, he said.

No one immediately claimed

responsibility, but suspicion fell
of Sunni extremists who have
been blamed for previous such
attacks.
The latest attack came ahead of
Ashoura, a 10-day ritual during
which Shiites commemorate the

death of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad.

Pakistan has boosted security for
Ashoura, when minority Shiite
Muslims hold public rallies
despite threats from Sunni extremists who consider them to be
heretics.

Seattle defensive end Michael Bennett sacks Colin Kaepernick in the second quarter of the 49ers xx-3 loss to the Seahawks at Levis Stadium.

49ers offense stagnates

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Russell Wilson and the

Seahawks ruled their one-sided rivalry against
the 49ers for another night.
Another Thursday night, in fact, and on San
Franciscos home field again.
Wilson threw a 43-yard touchdown pass to
Tyler Lockett late in the first half, Marshawn
Lynch added a 1-yard score, and Seattle beat
San Francisco 20-3 on Thursday night for its
fourth straight win between the NFC West
rivals.
The Seahawks (3-4) whipped San Francisco
in Levis Stadium on a Thursday in prime time
11 months after Richard Sherman chomped
turkey on the field here last Thanksgiving

night following a 19-3 victory.

Wilson completed 10 of his first 12 passes
and finished with 235 yards passing and
Lynch ran for 122 yards after vomiting on the
sideline in the first half. Seattle won its first
road game in four tries, avoiding another
fourth-quarter collapse this season.
It was a game lacking its usual intrigue with
both teams trying to save their seasons and
with Pete Carroll missing former coaching
nemesis and Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh.
Wilson made the key plays and Colin
Kaepernick struggled once again facing
Seattle as the 49ers (2-5) lost four days after
snapping a four-game losing streak by beating Baltimore.
Steven Hauschka sent dirt flying when he
kicked a 49-yard field goal in the second quar-

ter four days after Ravens kicker Justin Tucker

slipped on the turf and shanked one off the
right upright and slipped to the ground on the
field that will host the Super Bowl in early
February.
Wilson was sacked five times to push his
NFL-leading total to 31 and threw a pair of
interceptions, but still made plenty of big
plays for another lopsided result against the
Niners.
Fans left early again in an eerily similar
scene to Thanksgiving night, when 49ers
CEO Jed York apologized on Twitter in the
waning moments by saying: This performance wasnt acceptable. I apologize for that.
This time, it was former 49ers wideout

Ron Whitmill made his return to San

Mateo County an auspicious one.
Coaching his first volleyball match in the
county since stepping down as MenloAthertons head coach after last season, his
new squad Valley Christian-San Jose (4-1 in
WCAL, 23-7 overall) dismantled Notre
Dame-Belmont 25-21, 25-21, 25-17
Thursday at Moore Pavilion.
That was not us, Notre Dame-Belmont
head coach Jen Agresti said. That was not
our best showing. That is not who we are.
Valleys star senior Ronika Stone dominated to the tune of a match-high 20 kills, soaring and roaring with high-velocity attacks
that had the Tigers (3-2, 22-8) on their heels
all night. While Notre Dames defense was
mostly in disarray, Stone proved a force even
when the Tigers made plays.
In Game 2, with Valley leading 21-17,
Notre Dame junior defensive specialist Giana
Susa made a brilliant play in the back corner
covering plenty of ground with full extension for a dig. Senior libero Katarina
Warburton then sprinted over to bump the
ball forward allowing the Tigers front row to
get it over the net. But with the Warriors in
system, Tori Dilfer who totaled 45 assists
set Stone off the right side, allowing the
6-2 outside hitter to get airborne for a crushing crosscourt kill.
Whitmill knows all about Stones athleticism. A club coach at Vision Volleyball
where he also coached former M-A star outside hitter Devin Joos Whitmill has
worked with Stone since she was a 14-yearold upstart volleyball player. Some three
years later, the junior is a Division-I commit
to the University of Oregon.

Menlo-Athertons first-year head coach

Adhir Ravipati said growing pains on

poor start this season.
We have a really young team, Ravipati
said. Part of [our struggles were] just growing up and accepting responsibility
being the right kind of person, the right
kind of student.
That and the fact the Bears played a brutal

Game of the Week

non-league schedule against three of the top
teams in Northern California: Marin
Catholic, Oakdale and Riordan.
We scheduled three really good teams. We
did that on purpose, Ravipati said. We
wanted [our players] to see, what does a successful program do?
Those early-seasons lumps that resulted in a trio of lopsided losses have definitely prepared the Bears for Peninsula
Athletic League play. After losing their first

three games, the Bears closed out their nonleague schedule with a rout of Monterey and
kept the momentum rolling with wins over
Sequoia and Aragon the last two weeks.
Im very proud of the growth theyre
showing, Ravipati said of his team.
Theyve really started to buy in.

Ravipati said the biggest changes have

come on the offensive line and at quarterback. He said the Bears started four different
offensive lines in the first four games.
Now, however, Ravipati will start the
same offensive line for the third game in a
row.
That continuity on the offensive line has
opened up the Bears ground attack. During

Legendary EC baseball coaches to be honored

By Terry Bernal

really knew the game and were really dedicated to the game, Zuardo said.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Before Michael Jordan and Joe Montana

became legends, El Camino baseball managers Lou Zuardo and Carlos Roman were
doing Nos. 23 and 16 proud.
The two combined for nearly 40 years
managing the Colts between 1971 and
2012. Zuardo managed the team from 197182. Roman took over the varsity squad in
1985 and stayed until his retirement after
the 2012 season. For a program that hasnt
been to the postseason since, 22 Colts
teams appeared in the Central Coast Section
playoffs with either Zuardo or Roman at the
helm.
Friday night, in a pregame ceremony at
Colts Field at 6 p.m. one hour prior to
the kickoff of the Jefferson-El Camino football game the legendary baseball coaches will be honored in a ceremony retiring
Zuardos No. 23 and Romans No. 16.
When I thought about it, I just couldnt
put one or the other in first, El Camino athletic director Eric Jacobson said. They
both had to go in together. The program
really didnt miss a beat (in transition
between the two) and it's funny because
they're two different kinds of coaches.

Lou lands at EC
After a three-year minor league career with
the Dodgers and Giants, Zuardo went into
coaching, first at Balboa-SF before catching on as an assistant coach at El Camino
under original manager Harry Pitkoff in the
Colts inaugural season of 1965. They went
on to win the North Coast Section
Tournament of Champions under Pitkoff,
prior to Zuardo taking over as manager in
1971.
I walked into a very good program,
Zuardo said.
Zuardo cemented El Caminos standing as
a baseball powerhouse. The Colts made
eight straight playoff appearances under
Zuardo, including a pair of CCS championships in 1975 and 77. To this day, they
stand as El Caminos only two section
titles.

The miracle year

The 1975 season started it all, with what
Zuardo calls the miracle year.
This little team, they were amazing,
Zuardo said. If they were playing today, no
one would beat them and we didnt even
have any prospects on the team.
El Camino defeated some star-studded
teams en route to its first CCS title. After
getting past Capuchino 7-3 in the regional

championship, the Colts went on to defeated future Toronto Blue Jays All-Star righthander Dave Stieb and Oak Grove 1-0 in the
CCS semifinals.
Then in the finals, with pitcher Gene
Montgomery on the mound, the Colts
claimed the title with a 9-3 victory over
Wilcox, a team that had seven future professional players on roster, including future
American League batting champion Carney
Lansford. Montgomerys immortal was possibly one of the craziest high school title
games in CCS history, as the right-hander
walked 11 but struck out 14 to earn the win.
By the end of that game, I was almost
dead emotionally, Zuardo said.

Segelke and Bordi emerge

Zuardo went on to coach his share of pro
prospects though. In 1976, 6-4 right-hander Herman Segelke was the seventh overall
pick in the nation by the Chicago Cubs out
of El Camino. And in 1977, future longtime
big league reliever Rich Bordi converted to
the mound after the 6-7 right-hander had
previously played catcher.
Bordi hit cleanup on the 1977 team that
won El Caminos second CCS title in three
years. One of the best high school lineups
in the nation, El Camino hit .349 as a team.
But with Bordi and Jean Donalaya on the
mound, the Colts recorded seven straight

shutouts during the regular season. The

Colts went on to post a 28-1 overall record.
And Donalaya went on to record the victory
in the CCS title game, as the Colts rallied to
break a sixth-inning tie en route to an 8-6
win.
Zuardos knowhow had everything to do
with his El Camino teams playing with such
balance both sides of the ball. While he was
a prolific hitter he graduated from Sacred
Heart Cathedral and went on to play third
base at University of San Francisco for four
years he transitioned to catcher as a pro.

Ellis Brooks glory days

While his minor league career spanned
just three years, Zuardo was a longtime
player for the San Francisco-based semipro
team Ellis Brooks Baseball. He went on to
play with future Hall of Famers Dennis
Eckersley and Rickey Henderson. But one of
the most influential teammates was righthander Dick Tidrow now vice president
and assistant general manager of the San
Francisco Giants who Zuardo credits as
having taught him the slider.
Tidrows slider became a staple of the El
Camino pitching staff. And Zuardo adopted
other such cutting-edge techniques to revolutionize Colts baseball, as he played for
Ellis Brooks until 1989 when he was 48.
I was lucky enough to play for guys who

Zuardo stepped down as El Caminos manager after the 1982 season, after he and his
wife Christine started a family. The two met
at El Camino, where she was a guidance
counselor; they even retired together in
2005. Their daughter Tara went on to star as
a cross-country runner at Tamalpais High
School. Their son Vincent was an all-league
baseball player at Tamalpais, and even
played in the Goodwill Series in Beijing
when he was 15-years old.
It was time, Zuardo said of his retirement. We had won a lot of ballgames. And
it was harder winning than it was losing.
The pressure starts building on you a little
bit.
It took two years before El Camino found
another long-term manager in Roman. In
1983, former USF mens basketball head
coach Pete Barry took over the team. In
1984, he was replaced by one of Zuardos
former players, Danny ORegan.

Los steps up
Roman was coaching the South City Joe
DiMaggio team at the time, but initially
refused the job at El Camino in 1983 as he
was busy working in the sporting goods
business. In 1984, he took over the juniorvarsity Colts and was promoted to varsity
manager in 1985.
When I took over the El Camino program, and I really have to thank Lou,
because I feel like I followed him he was
the icon, Roman said. But he made it
much easier for me to start coaching there.
While the personalities of Zuardo and
Roman were night-and-day, the transition
was seamless in that Roman had coached
most of the players in the DiMaggio summer league.
[Zuardo] had a very relaxed way of practicing but at the same time [his players]
would bare down and get to playing.
In contrast, Roman was much more hardnosed, according to Jacobson, who played
for Roman in 1987 and 88.
Roman could say more with a look,
Jacobson said. He was very strict but of
the baseball players we had, they needed
that.
Roman credits Zuardo for completely
removing himself from the coaching staff,
despite Roman asking him to stay on as an
assistant coach.

UCLA crushes Cal

By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PASADENA Josh Rosen completed a school-record 34 passes

and threw two of his three touchdown passes to Devin Fuller, and
UCLA got its season back on track
with a 40-24 victory over No. 20
California on Thursday night.
Rosen passed for 399 yards in
another splendid game for the
standout freshman,
and
Thomas Duarte
had
career
highs of 10
catches for 141
yards for the
Bruins (5-2, 22
Pac-12).
UCLA reboundJosh Rosen
ed from consecutive
losses
and a drop from the national rankings with a 573-yard offensive
performance.
Soso Jamabo rushed for a score
after star UCLA tailback Paul
Perkins left with an injury, and the
Bruins injury-plagued defense
limited Jared Goff and Cals potent
offense to 170 yards in the first
half.
Goff passed for 295 yards in a
second straight disappointing
game for the Bears (5-2, 2-2).
They have lost two straight.
Kenny Lawler, Darius Powe and
Khalfani Muhammad caught TD
passes for Cal, which entered the
Rose Bowl with its highest ranking in six years and a chance to
clinch to clinch bowl eligibility
for the first time since 2011.
Instead, the Bears still have just
one win in Pasadena since 1999.
Debuting their black-and-shinygold City uniforms, UCLA
appeared revitalized after losses to
Arizona State and Stanford. The
defense sacked Goff five times,
and Kaimi Fairbairn made four
field goals, including a schoolrecord 60-yarder at the halftime
gun.
Rosen was smooth and confident in another big Pac-12 game,
going 34 for 47 without a

turnover. Early in the fourth quarter, he broke the UCLA singlegame completions record set by
Richard Brehaut in 2010 and
matched by Brett Hundley last
year.
But even in victory, UCLA added
two more significant injuries to
its alarming season total. Perkins,
last seasons Pac-12 rushing
champion, ran for 73 yards before
limping off in the second quarter.
Linebacker Isaako Savaiinaea, the
Bruins leading tackler, then left
on a cart in the second half.
UCLA stumbled back to the Rose
Bowl with consecutive losses in
conference play for the third
straight season, including a 56-35
thrashing at Stanford last
Thursday that dropped the Bruins
out of the Top 25. Coach Jim
Moras teams have always bounced
back from those skids, and the
Bruins still havent lost three
straight regular-season games in
Moras tenure.
Despite the UC rivalry, the Rose
Bowl was roughly half-full before
kickoff as fans struggled to get
through weekday Los Angeles traffic to the relatively inaccessible
stadium.
The Bruins took their first lead
in three weeks when Duarte caught
a 7-yard TD pass in the first quarter. Fuller capped a 90-yard drive
early in the second with a 19-yard
scoring grab, and UCLA moved the
ball deliberately throughout the
half despite settling for four field
goals.
Cal finally reached the end zone
on Lawlers acrobatic grab 51 seconds before halftime, but Rosen
moved the Bruins into position
for that 60-yard kick by Fairbairn,
who was mobbed by teammates
when he broke Chris Sailers
UCLA record of 56 yards, set in
1997.
UCLA kept rolling after the
break, with Rosen hitting Duarte
from 21 yards out for a 33-10 lead.

last three weeks, he has rushed for
644 yards, including 321 against
Aragon last week.
As for the quarterback conundrum, well, the Bears finally have
one.
We ran the Wildcat (with running back Stavros Papadakis) for
the first three, four games,
Ravipati said. Miles (Conrad) is a
true quarterback.
Conrad, a sophomore, has started the last two games and while he
in averaging just over 70 yards
passing a game, he has thrown for
a touchdown in each of his starts.
The Bears will have to be firing
on all cylinders against the Gators
Friday, beginning at 7 p.m. After a
rough preseason, SHP has righted
the ship and appears to be the
unstoppable force it has been the
last couple of seasons. Since the
start of Bay Division play, the
Gators are scoring an average of
47.5 points. The defense, which
surrendered 55 points in their final
non-league game against Carmel,
has given up only 16 points, combined, to Terra Nova and Sequoia.
Theyre a great team. Theyre
well balanced. The big thing for us
is to consistently control the line
of
play,
Ravipati
said.
Offensively, we have to be able to
pick up first downs and be able to
finish drives when we get in the
red zone.
While SHP has dominated much
of the Bay Division the last couple
years, the Bears have been a thorn
in their sides. The Gators may
have won the last three matchups,
including 31-21 last season, but
the average margin of victory in
those games is six points.
Theyre always entertaining
games, Ravipati said. The kids
are really riled up for it. Its always
a well-fought game, in the right
way.
We went out and played those
(non-league) games to have us
ready to play a team like Sacred
Heart Prep. Teams that can execute
for four quarters.

Best Bets
Friday
Terra Nova (0-2 PAL Bay, 2-4 overall)
at Aragon (0-2, 4-2), 3 p.m.
The Tigers were taken down by Burlingame
last week, 27-17. The Dons were decimated
by Menlo-Atherton, 31-10. This will be the
first meeting between these two since Aragon
posted a thrilling 32-21 win in 2012. This
is essentially an elimination game for these
two teams, with the loser not only out of the
running for the Bay Division title, but there is
also a chance the loser could miss the playoffs.
Terra Nova, which scored more than 40
points in its final two non-league games, has
struggled since entering PAL play, scoring a
total of 30 points in their first two league
games. Aragon has also lost two straight
after opening the season with four straight
wins. The Dons are allowing over 30 points
in two Bay Division games so far this season.

Kings Academy (1-1 PAL Ocean, 5-1 overall)

at Menlo School (1-1, 5-1), 3 p.m.
Kings Academy slipped past South City 4138 last week. Menlo gave up a last-minute
touchdown and were beaten 22-19 by Half
Moon Bay. The last time these teams met
was 2012, with Menlo winning 57-23.
Kings Academys defense has struggled in Bay
Division play, allowing an average of 50
points per game. That number is skewed by the
63 points Hillsdale put on Kings Academy two
weeks ago. Kings Academy had one of its

48-3 by Sacred Heart Prep. Burlingame beat
Sequoia 38-13 last season. The Burlingame
defense is allowing only 13 points per game this
season, while the offense is scoring an average of
30. The Panthers had three players rush for 70
or more yards last week: Ben Williams rushed for
70 yards and two touchdowns, Joevani Garcia had
74 and Laipeli Palu had 83 yards and a score.
Sequoia has four straight losses. The three
points scored were a season low for the
Cherokees. Sequoia quarterback Nick DeMarco
is averaging 181 yards passing per game. As a
team, the Cherokees are averaging 4.8 yards a
rush.

defense was a season high, raising its average
to 5.3 points allowed this season. The 22
points scored was a season low for the

the Cougars ground attack against Menlo,
rushing for 135 yards on 19 carries.
Woodside is mired in a two-game losing streak.
The Wildcats have been held under 21 points
the last two weeks. The 40 points allowed
was the most Woodside has given up this season. Woodside quarterback Scudder
Stockwell threw for 193 yards and three touchdowns last week along with three interceptions.

San Mateo (1-1 PAL Lake, 3-3 overall)

at Capuchino (1-0, 2-4), 7 p.m.
The Bearcats earned their first Lake Division
win last week, beating Mills 35-6. The

off Woodside 36-31 last season. Hillsdale is
riding a five-game winning streak, with its
only blemish a 22-7 loss in the season opener
to Saratoga. The Knights have scored 40

Vikings last week. The 35 points scored was
the most the Bearcats have put up since a 48-28
win over Lynbrook in Week 2. San Mateo

tonight was to make them do something different.
The Tigers relied on front-row

They had good blocking and then
our blocking fell apart.
Valleys blocking put the match

The two opening sets were close

Early in Game 1, Notre Dame got
a four-point service run from
Smoot, including three aces. So,
when she stepped to the service
line with the set deadlocked at 1616, it looked at though the Tigers
were in position to take control.
Smoots serve faulted into net,
however, allowing Valley to go on
a three-point run before closing it

THE DAILY JOURNAL

NFL brief
Raiders are hoping to
get more from rookie Walford
ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders offensive
coordinator Bill Musgrave plans to have rookie Clive Walford watch footage of a few other
tight ends in the NFL this offseason.
That list will almost surely include San
Diegos Antonio Gates, the eight-time Pro
Bowl tight end who Walford will get a firsthand
look at this week when the Raiders play the
Chargers.
For now, however, Oaklands coaches only
want Walford to focus on continuing to catch up
with the rest of the offense after the third-round
draft pick missed large chunks of training camp
with a variety of injuries.
Walford showed hes getting close in the
Raiders Week 5 loss to Denver when he caught
a pass from quarterback Derek Carr, broke a
tackle and turned it into a 33-yard reception that
set up Oaklands only touchdown of the day.
It was only one play but the Raiders hope its

Roman went on to lead El Camino to the

playoffs in 10 of his first 12 seasons,
including the Colts last CCS championship-game appearance in 1994. They lost
in the title game to Romans alma mater,
Serra.
Like Zuardo, Roman also had two children
while at El Camino. His two sons, Robert
and Marcus, both coach the Colts football
team. Robert isn't officially on staff, but
works as an assistant quarterbacks coach in
his spare time. Marcus has been an official

the beginning of something more important.

It felt great to actually go out there and make
a play for the team, Walford said. Its a matter
of being comfortable out there. By me making
that play hopefully the coaches can see that Im
capable of doing big things and my snaps will
increase.
Oakland scored 64 points in back-to-back
wins over Baltimore and Cleveland but has
scored just 30 points in the two games since
then. Some of the problems on offense have
stemmed from opponents doing a better job of
defending wide receivers Amari Cooper and
Michael Crabtree.
The Raiders tight ends as a group havent
been much involved in the passing game.
Theyve caught just 16 passes through five
games, nine by Mychal Rivera. Lee Smith, the
more accomplished blocker of the three, has
four receptions while Walford has three.
Musgrave, who is in his first season as
Oaklands offensive coordinator, believes
Walford could learn from watching tape of
Gates. He just doesnt want his rookie tight end
getting distracted by it now.
varsity assistant for three years.
Both of my sons have grown up at El
Camino, Roman said. So whether theyre
coaches or not, theyre always going to be
engrained at that school.

By the numbers
Roman has worn No. 16 since he pitched
at Serra for three varsity seasons under legendary Padres manager Pete Houle. As a senior, he even played against manager Pete
Jensen, when Jensen was at Mitty prior to
taking over at Serra for Houle.
So, while Joe Montana was etching his
iconic No. 16 into 49ers history through
the 80s, Roman relates more to Jim
Plunkett, Al Attles and Jimmy Ray Hart in
terms of Bay Area greats who also wore the
number.
Zuardo similarly sums up the history of
his No. 23.
That was way before Michael Jordan,
Zuardo said.

Sharks lose third in a row

Kings 4, Sharks 1

By Rick Eymer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Jeff Carter felt the

Kings needed to respond after getting beat up by the Sharks in their
season-opener. Los Angeles did just
that Thursday night.
Carter scored twice, Jhonas
Enroth made 39 saves and the Kings
beat San Jose 4-1 for their third
straight victory.
We pretty much got embarrassed
that first game at home, Carter
said. I think it was big for us to
come in and prove ourselves. We
pretty much had to. This was a big
task coming in here. I thought we
did a good job.
Tyler Toffoli and Milan Lucic also
scored. The Kings have rebounded
for a 3-3-0 start to the season.
That was the most important
thing was the response from the 5-1
loss we had in the opening game,
Lucic said. Our mindset was in the
right place, and I think that was the
big reason why we came into one of
the toughestbuildings in the NHL
and got a big win.
Joel Ward had a goal for the Sharks

in their third straight loss. Theyve

been outscored 13-4 over their past
three games and have one powerplay goal in their last 16 chances.
We definitely had our chances on
the power play. It just didnt find its
way in, Sharks center Joe Pavelski
said. We had our flurries in their end
and we sustained pressure. The
power play was more than dangerous tonight.
Enroth improved to 4-0 in five
games against San Jose. Former
Kings goalie Martin Jones made 25
saves for the Sharks.
He was really good, the first period especially, Kings coach Darryl
Sutter said of Enroth. They threw a
lot of pucks at us, and I think he did
a really, really good job, too,
killing penalties, making some big
saves.
Enroth made his first appearance
of the season.
I figured they were going to come
out pretty hard and try and shoot
from everywhere because I hadnt
played yet, and thats what they
did, he said. I was ready for that,

and I think we prepared pretty well

for this game.
Lucic scored the Kings second
power-play goal of the season. Los
Angeles entered the game 1 for 21,
but scored on its first opportunity to
take a 2-0 lead. Carter added another
midway through the third period.
Toffoli gave the Kings an early
lead after Alec Martinezs pass led
him behind the defenders. He juked
Jones once before slipping it in.
Carter made it 3-0 early in the second on a counterattack. Jones faced
a 2-on-1 situation and could not
stop the shot. San Jose coach Peter
DeBoer challenged the call, which
was upheld as a goal.
At that point we knew it was a
long shot, DeBoer said. It was not
a slam dunk.
Ward put the Sharks on the board
late in the second period. Brent
Burns shot sailed into the glass,
and Pavelski gathered it and passed
to Ward, who was open in front of
the net to score his 99th career goal.
Carter scored three seconds into a
power play, firing a shot that
bounced off the glass and deflected
off Jones pad into the net.

Jays trying to force Game 7

By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KANSAS CITY, Mo. The

Kansas City Royals have established a reputation for dramatic
postseason comebacks the past
couple of years, beginning with
last seasons wild-card victory
over Oakland.
Turns out, the Toronto Blue Jays
have some never-say-quit spirit as
well.
After going on a second-half run
to make the playoffs, then rallying from a 2-0 deficit to defeat
Texas in a best-of-five matchup,
the Blue Jays will try to beat the
Royals in another win-or-else situation in Game 6 of the AL
Championship Series on Friday
night.
Toronto forced the series back to
Kansas City with a 7-1 rout on
Wednesday, closing to 3-2.

You look at all the elimination

games, our offense has really
come to life, Blue Jays manager
John Gibbons said Thursday.
Weve said all along thats the
key to our team, scoring runs. You
hate to make a habit of it, but
maybe we can pull it off again.
David Price will take the mound
for the Blue Jays after his collapse
in Game 2, when he tossed six
shutout innings and then surrendered five runs in the seventh.
Yordano Ventura will oppose
him for Kansas City. He was only
marginally better, allowing three
runs and eight hits in 5 1-3
innings before watching the
comeback win from the dugout.
Im very fortunate and happy
that this game has landed on my
turn, here in Kansas City, and with
the opportunity to take this club
to the World Series, Ventura said
through catching coach Pedro
Grifol, acting as a translator. Ill

be ready for this game.

The Blue Jays promise they will
be, too.
Toronto lost the first two games
against the Rangers at home, then
won three straight with its season
hanging in the balance. The first
two were at Texas, and the last at
Rogers Centre, but none of the
victories was even close all by
at least three runs.
The Blue Jays lost the first two
games in Kansas City, too. But in
Game 3 in Toronto, the hosts
overcame a 1-0 deficit and rolled to
an 11-8 victory.
Weve been through a bunch of
hurdles all year, Blue Jays outfielder Chris Colabello said. We
were 7 1/2 games (back) at the
deadlines. ... We had to claw back
from that. We were down two
games back in the division series
and we clawed back from that. Ill
tell you what, were going to leave
everything we have out there.

Murray finds some comedy

in messy Rock the Kasbah
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Bill Murray is asleep. Or at

least he appears to be sleeping
when we first meet his character,
the down and out music manager
Richie Lanz, in Rock the
Kasbah.

Holed up in a dingy San

Fernando Valley motel room,
hes at least half listening to the
shrill sounds of a woman singing
Maroon 5 and deciding whether
or not to sign her. He does, and
promptly collects a $1200 fee
from his newest client. His other
client,
Ronnie
(Zooey

Deschanel, sporting hot pants

and smeared eyeliner), who also
seems to double as his assistant,
scolds him for playing this game
and abusing the hopes and
checkbooks of gullible
dreamers. Then he takes Ronnie
out to a dive bar and has her sing

CeeLo Green apologizes, says he

wants to return to The Voice
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES CeeLo Green says he has

grown personally and professionally and
wants to return to The Voice.
Ive talked very possibly about doing The
Voice again, Green said in an interview
Wednesday. So I just kind of put that out
there, wishful thinking, kind of willing it.
Because I would love to do it again.
An original coach when the show premiered
in 2011, Green left last year after facing
charges in a felony drug case. He pleaded no
contest to giving a woman ecstasy at a 2012
dinner and recently completed his sentenced
community service. He remains on probation.
After entering the plea, Green posted a
series of messages on Twitter, including one
that read: Women who have really been raped
REMEMBER!!! He later posted an apology,
but the statements led to the cancellation of a
reality show and several concert appearances.

It was a very redefining

moment in my personal
and professional life,
Green said. I get in front
of my creator, humbled,
and I ask, What does this
mean? What is this supposed to mean for me?
What am I supposed to
CeeLo Green learn from it? And (to)
have thp, have my deepest, sincerest apologies for any inconvenience, any ignorance, any ill will, anything.
Im just glad that its behind me now. Im so
glad for it.
While he is hoping for a return to TV, Green
said his first priority is to reacquaint with the
music community and say, I belong to you.
He said he channeled the emotions he experienced with his legal and personal struggles
into his new album, Heart Blanche, due

Oil and water dont mix. Neither do slob and neatnik, as

seen in Neil Simons The Odd Couple, presented by
Hillbarn Theatre.
The slob is Oscar Madison (John J. Maio), who has been
divorced for several months and still lives in his large New
York City apartment. The neatnik is Felix Ungar (C. Conrad
Cady), whose 12-year marriage has just dissolved.
Theyre poker pals who play with four other men in
Oscars apartment every Friday. However, when the despondent Felix arrives one night and says his wife has kicked
him out, Oscar invites him to stay there.
Before long, Oscars pig pen of an apartment has been
transformed into a model of neatness, and junk food has
been replaced by tasty home cooking, courtesy of Felix.
The flip side is that Felix is obsessively neat and clean,
hes a hypochondriac, he makes weird noises clearing his
sinuses, and hes morose. He has a low tolerance for composure, Oscar says.
Oscar is more easy going and sensible. In an effort to
help Felix loosen up and perhaps do well himself, Oscar
invites two neighbors, the Pigeon sisters Cecily
(Stephanie Crowley) and Gwendolyn (Nicole Martin) to
dinner. The results are surprising.
Although Oscar seems more sensible than Felix, Maio
also shows how angry Oscar can get when hes finally had
enough of Felixs idiosyncrasies.
For his part, Cady is well cast as Felix, who cant seem to
help himself, sometimes unconsciously straightening or
wiping something.
Crowley and Martin make a good team as the giggly but
flirty Pigeon sisters.
Oscar and Felixs poker pals are well played by David
Blackburn as Speed, Andrew Engdahl as Murray, Galen
Poulton as Roy and Evan Sokol as Vinnie.
The play is set in 1965, the year it premiered. It proved so
popular that it was made into a film in 1968 and became a
TV series.
Director Michael Sally paces the action and the laughs
well, aided by the set by Kuo-Hao Lo, lighting by Christian
V. Mejia, sound by Dan Demers and costumes by Mae
Matos.
The three-act play runs about two and a half hours with

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM

By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

THE NATIONS GAME: THE NFL

FROM THE PRO FOOTBALL HALL
OF FAME, AT THE SAN FRANCISCO
AIRPORT MUSEUM. The Super Bowl
has become a secular holiday for many
Americans, and more than 1 million people are expected to attend the weeklong
festivities in the San Francisco Bay Area
leading up to Super Bowl 50 on Feb. 7,
2016. Regardless of which two teams face
off at Levis Stadium in Santa Clara, fans of
the leagues other 30 teams will join more
than 100 million television viewers in the
United States and around the world to see
who will be crowned as the next champions of Americas favorite game. Travelers
passing through San Francisco Airport
from now until the end of February have a
chance to see items that recall the legendary players of what has come to be
known as The Nations Game.
IN THE BEGINNING. Few could have
imagined the phenomenal popularity of
todays National Football League (NFL)
when representatives from four Ohio football clubs gathered nearly a century ago in
Canton, Ohio, to establish a new standard
of professional football. Although the
game was popular with college teams and
semi-professional clubs across the country, there was little press or fan interest
outside of the leagues participating cities
until the addition of star college players in
the late 1920s. In the 1930s and 1940s,
dynastic teams such as the Green Bay
Packers and the Chicago Bears produced
nationally known players whose celebrity
further popularized the NFL. But many consider Dec. 28, 1958, as the leagues watershed moment, when an estimated 45 million television viewers watched quarterback Johnny Unitas, in sudden-death overtime, lead his Baltimore Colts to a dramatic, come-from-behind victory over the New

York
Giants
to
win
the
NFL
Championship.
The NFL was quick to recognize the value
of television, which was in 90 percent of
American households by the end of the
1950s. So, too, did a group of prospective
owners who had been rebuffed in their
attempts to secure NFL franchises. In
1960, they formed the rival American
Football League and secured a five-year television contract with proceeds divided
evenly among the clubs. The AFL gained
immediate attention by signing many of
the NFLs first-round draft choices and raiding their teams for star players.
LET THE GAME BEGIN. In 1966, the
two leagues agreed to a merger with an
annual interleague championship game,
which became known as the Super Bowl.
In 1970, the NFL absorbed the AFLs 10
franchises and formed a balanced league of
26 teams in two separate conferences, with
the winner of each conference meeting in
the Super Bowl. The emerging prominence
of this title game and the nationally televised broadcast of Monday Night Football
brought professional football into the
mainstream of American popular culture in
the 1970s. In the following decades, the
league added six expansion teams, gathering new fans in those respective cities and
increasing numbers of fans who adopted
NFL teams from across the country as their
own. Today, each NFL game attracts nearly
70,000 attendees, more than any other
professional sports league, and professional footballs popularity shows no sign
of abating.
ABOUT THE PRO FOOTBALL HALL
OF FAME. Many of the items on display
at San Francisco Airport are on loan from
the
Pro
Football
Hall of Fame
in Canton,
Ohio. Since

The Nations Game:The NFL From The Pro Football Hall of Fame, an exhibit at the San Francisco
Airport Museum, is part of the build-up to Super Bowl 50 at Levis Stadium in Santa Clara on
Feb. 7, 2016. Among the items on display are the helmet worn by Walter Payton on Oct. 7,
1984, when he broke Jim Browns career rushing record and the jersey worn by Jim Marshall
on Dec. 11, 1976, during his NFL record-setting 236th consecutive start.
opening in 1963, the Hall of Fame has
been dedicated to honoring the heroes of
the game, preserving its history, promoting its values, and celebrating excellence
everywhere. Major expansion projects
have transformed the Hall of Fames original 19, 000-square-foot museum into an
internationally recognized institution and
travel destination with 118, 000 square

Irish whiskey is showing a revival spirit

a single malt, and Redbreast.

And previously hard-to-find Irish
whiskeys are washing up here, too. Green
Spot and Yellow Spot whiskies are now
available, notes Lew Bryson, managing
editor of the Whisky Advocate. Thats good

news for fans who previously had been relegated to loading up at the Dublin airport
Duty Free. Established brands are getting
in on the trend, too, bringing out new products and experimenting with different
styles.

Unlike Scotland, which has scores of distilleries, for years there were only three
major distilleries in the Republic of Ireland
Midleton, Cooley and Kilbeggan
along with Bushmills in Northern Ireland.
Like most overnight success stories, the
resurgence of Irish whiskies was actually a
long time coming. The turnaround can be
traced back to 1966 when Jameson, John
Power and Son and Cork Distilleries Co.
formed to create Irish Distillers (now
owned by Pernod Ricard). The group
focused on Irish whiskeys strength its
mellow approachability and promoted it
as a smooth and easy-to-drink whiskey.
Irish whiskey typically is made from
malted and unmalted barley and is not peated the process of creating the smoky,
briny flavors characteristic of some
scotches by drying malted barley over
burning peat. And that means Irish whiskey
has a lighter taste, which can make it more
attractive to bourbon-loving Americans.
Additional smoothness comes from Irish
whiskey usually getting distilled three
times, compared to scotch, which generally is double distilled.
With the category regaining its footing,
the key is to keep that core DNA that people like about Irish whiskey, says Teeling,
while exploring new styles to keep pace
with the market. If Irish whiskey doesnt
offer a full range of expressions, were
going to lose, he says.

Salima and her determination to defy her

passion of singing on a reality television
show.
This story is probably about the wrong
character. Richie is a sideshow. Salima is
the heart. Here, shes reduced to an exotic
means of redemption for a character we
barely care about.
Levinson and Glazer try to weave Rock
the Kasbah into a complex tapestry of
satire and sincerity and come up instead
with a big knotted mess. And its always a
bad sign when one of Murrays best
moments is completely unrelated to the
movie at hand, and plays only while the

DUBLIN Irish whiskey once was a

world leader. Once. And again?
That big deal role came crashing down
thanks to strife and Prohibition, which
pretty much ended the U.S. market for the
brown spirit from the Emerald Isle. But in
recent years, Irish whiskey a cousin to
the wildly popular American bourbon and
reasonably popular Scotch whisky has
been making a comeback on these shores.
In fact, last year more than 2.7 million
cases were sold in the U.S., according to
the U.S. Distilled Spirits Council. Thats a
$553 million chunk of the market, up 10
percent by revenue from the year before,
and up 648 percent from 2003.
Irish whiskeys definitely arrived, says
Jack Teeling, founder of Teeling Whiskey,
which this year opened its new distillery in
Dublin, bringing distilling back to the city
after a hiatus of nearly 40 years.
And Teeling isnt the only company on
the move as Irish whiskey surges.
Tullamore DEW recently opened a large
new distillery, and smaller distilleries
have been cropping up around Ireland.
The result is that along with stalwarts like
Jameson Original and Tullamore DEW,
U. S. drinkers have a growing number of
choices in Irish whiskey, including the
recently introduced Teeling Small Batch,

Cook the apples, lose the gap!

Mastering a better apple pie
By Sara Moulton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Any number of tasks may strike you as easy

as pie, but anyone whos ever actually made a
pie can tell you that it actually requires some
care if you want it to turn out well.
Consider apple pie. Its ingredients are few
and elemental: apples, of course, along with
sugar, flavoring and pie crust. But choosing
the right apples is a serious business.
Likewise, youll want to do what you can to
prevent the apples from shrinking in the pie
shell as they cook, which simultaneously
makes the bottom crust soggy and creates an
unsightly gap between the filling and top
crust.
Lets start with the apples. Some are tart
and some are sweet. Happily, autumn is apple
season, which means farmers markets (and,
to a lesser extent, supermarkets) should be
bursting with choices. Buy an assortment,
taste each kind and take notes about their flavor, paying particular attention to their sugar
level. An apples flavor intensifies as it is
cooked. Unless youre nuts about one particular variety, Id advise you to pick a mix for
your pie. The complexity of the flavors will
make the pie that much more interesting.
Some apples turn into mush when theyre
cooked, while others hold their shape for
days. If youre not sure which way a given
variety will go, heres a test: Cut a wedge into
cubes, combine it with a pinch of sugar and a
tablespoon of water, then cook it, covered,
over low heat for about five minutes, or until
just tender. Most varieties will hold their
shape, but McIntosh, Macoun, Cortland and
Empire will fall apart and turn into applesauce. I recommend adding a few of the fallapart varieties to your pie. Their sauciness
will moisten and bind the rest of the apples in
the filling.
Now, how to prevent that gap? Simple.
Gently pre-cook the apples, which drains
them of liquid and shrinks their bulk. Theyll
shrink no more once theyre added to the pie,
which means that therell be no gap between
the filling and the top crust. But dont toss
out that liquid! If you boil it down as detailed
below and add it back to the apples, youll
amp up the apple essence.

DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE

Start to finish: 3 hours
Servings: 8
4 pounds firm apples, (a mix of sweet and
tart) peeled, cored and cut into 1/4-inch-thick
wedges
1 pound applesauce apples, peeled, cored
and cut into 1/4-inch-thick wedges
1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar,

1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon table salt

1 teaspoon lemon zest

zest. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce to a
simmer and cook until the firm apples are just
tender when poked with a knife, about 15
minutes. Transfer the apples to a large colander set over a bowl and let them drain for 15
minutes, shaking the colander every so
often.
After the apples have drained, add the juices
from the bowl to the Dutch oven and simmer
until reduced to about 1/2 cup.
In the bowl, combine the reduced juices
with the apples. Taste for seasoning and add
additional lemon juice if necessary. Cool to
room temperature.
Meanwhile, remove 1 disk of dough from
the refrigerator and roll it out between 2 large
sheets of plastic wrap into a 12-inch circle,
about 1/8 inch thick. If the dough becomes
soft and/or sticky, return it to the refrigerator
and chill until firm. Remove the plastic wrap
from one side of the dough and flip it onto a
9-inch pie plate. Remove the second layer of
wrap. Ease the dough down into the plate and
press it into the bottom and sides gently
without stretching it. Leave the dough that
overhangs the plate in place; chill until the
dough is firm, about 30 minutes.
Roll the second disk of dough between 2
large sheets of plastic wrap into a 12-inch
circle, about 1/8 inch thick. Chill, leaving
the dough between the plastic sheets, until
firm, about 30 minutes.
While the dough chills, adjust the oven
rack to the lowest position, place an empty
rimmed baking sheet on the rack, and heat the
oven to 425 F.
Remove the pie plate lined with the dough
from the refrigerator and spoon the apple
mixture into it. Remove the plastic from one
side of the remaining dough and flip the
dough onto the apples. Remove the second
piece of plastic. Trim the excess dough hanging off the edge of the pie plate so it is flush
with the edge. Pinch the top and bottom
dough rounds firmly together and press them
with the tines of a fork.
Cut four 2-inch slits in the top of the
dough. Chill the filled pie for 10 minutes.
Brush the surface with the heavy cream, then
sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 teaspoon

of granulated sugar. Bake the pie on the heated baking sheet until the crust is dark golden
brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer the pie to
a wire rack and let cool until ready to serve.

PIE DOUGH
Start to finish: 20 minutes, plus chilling
Makes 2 crusts
2 2/3 cups (11 1/2 ounces) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon table salt
18 tablespoons (2 sticks plus 2 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cold, cut into 1/2inch cubes
4 to 6 tablespoons ice water
In a large bowl, stir together the flour and
the salt, then add the butter. Working quickly
with your fingertips or a pastry blender, mix
the dough until most of mixture resembles a

coarse meal, with the rest in small (roughly

pea-sized) lumps. Drizzle 4 tablespoons of
ice water evenly over the mixture and gently
stir with a fork until incorporated. Gently
squeeze a small handful: it should hold
together without crumbling apart. If it doesnt, add more ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a
time, stirring 2 or 3 times after each addition
until it comes together. (If you overwork the
mixture or add too much water, the pastry will
be tough.)
Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and divide into several portions. With
the heel of your hand, smear each portion
once in a forward motion on the work surface
to help distribute the fat. Gather the smeared
dough together and form it, rotating it on the
work surface, into 2 disks. Chill, wrapped in
plastic wrap, until firm, at least 1 hour.

well as a major facility renovation while
local dignitaries gather Saturday to help
bolster its fundraising efforts.
Having raised $19 million from its
close network of donors, officials are
now ready to branch out to the community at large and garner support aimed at
facilitating experiential learning for
children of all ages.
Creativity, while always afoot at the
center, is kicking into full gear as the
team at CuriOdyssey is working to double classroom space, increase program
capacity and make room for dozens of
new exhibits all while remaining
within the buildings current footprint
of 28,000 square feet nestled against the
Bayfront.
Weve seen tremendous growth in all
areas. Our membership has grown
tremendously, attendance has gone from
70,000 to 170,000 this last year, said
Deputy Director Joan Martel. One of
the things that makes us so special is
that we are an intimate experience.
Were not too big, were not looking to
quadruple or grow 10 times. We want to
maintain that small and intimate experience thats special for children.
Overall, were just going to be using the
space we have now differently and better
meet the needs of the organization.
Home to dozens of wildlife like bobcats, otters, foxes, falcons and more;
the center has come a long ways from its
initial founding in 1953 as the San
Mateo County Junior Museum. Due at
least in part to the organization rebranding in 2011, CuriOdyssey now serves a
much larger portion of the community
with its educational programs and is
seeking to repurpose its space with the
help of the award-winning firm Fernau
& Hartman Architects.
To stay true to its roots, portions of
the 1980s interior, such as the Douglas
fir beams in the underutilized four-tiered
upstairs hall, will be reused and incorporated into the new design. What better
way to highlight environmental consciousness and pay tribute to the original facility, Martel asked.
Its also the story of taking that initial investment from those initial
investors in Coyote Point Museum,
environmental education museum, and
bringing it forward into CuriOdyssey,
Martel said. I think it tells a beautiful
story too, that it really is about being
environmentally conscientious.
The renovation also includes expanding from two to four classrooms,
tripling its interactive exhibit space
from what can now hold just 40 pieces
to nearly 100, and increasing its
wildlife and science programs.
The revamp presents an opportunity
to design around the needs of its users
and promote unique experiential learning opportunities that make a tremen-

dous impact on the lives of children,
said
Education
Director
Carl
Oosterman.
If youre going to teach science, particularly environmental science, you
want them to be in the place where its
occurring. Any time you can engage
their senses, whether it be sound, touch,
sight, smell, taste, their retention and
basically the hardwiring of their brain is
better developed, Oosterman said.
Those experiences which we provide
here, which are real, rich and right now,
tend to be highly impactful.
Saahithi Madiraju brought her son to
CuriOdyssey for the first time and said
the nonprofit lived up to its name.
It has so many wonderful things for
the kids, for their curiosity. My son,
hes only 18 months old, but he loved
it, Madiraju said after playing with one
of the interactive exhibits. It just captured his attention. Anything that can
bring out their creativity and let them
think at that age is really great.
Short of its goal, CuriOdyssey is
reaching out to the community for support. The public is invited to gather
Saturday, as proposed changes will be
announced while a new exhibit is also
unveiled.
The team at CuriOdyssey carefully
curates interactive exhibits that illustrate various principles of science.
Whether its conservation of angular
momentum or potential kinetic energy,
an underlying criteria is staying
unplugged, said Exhibits Director Eric
Maschwitz.
We think physical interaction with
the natural world is an important cornerstone of our design process,
Maschwitz said. We dont trick anything; its just science and thats compelling.
Maschwitz said he and his crew are
anything but short on ideas for new
exhibits, but are limited by the buildings limited space. Future visitors will
also get a behind-the-scenes look at
how the crafty contraptions are made.
Were going to have a much more
effectively usable, flexible space,

Maschwitz said. The workshop is

[going to be] visible, so the workshop
itself is an exhibit. Visitors will get to
see the process of how exhibits are
built.
Another major feature of the renovation is a second-story observatory protruding from the main building.
Overlooking the Bay, it will provide a
rare glimpse into the surrounding tree
canopy. Different shaped peepholes will
give children a renewed perspective as
the world around them is framed in
unique ways, Martel said.
But for these improvements to take
shape, CuriOdyssey staff said they need
the communitys help. TomKat
Charitable Trust has increased its $5
million donation by announcing a challenge grant to match all new and
increased donations up to $2 million.
Striving to break ground on the renovation in 2016, construction could take up
to two years, Martel said.
Some of its exhibits will be relocated
outdoors as CuriOdyssey and of course,
the array of wildlife that call Coyote
Point home, will remain in their habitats and be available to the public,
Martel said.
A lot has changed since the nonprofits inception decades ago and staff
believes the future holds a great deal of
promise.
Our region is renowned as a hub for
science, engineering, innovation and
creativity we need to equip our children with the critical thinking skills to
take on the future, Executive Director
Rachel Meyer said in a press release. I
am confident the community will join
us in raising the remaining funds to create a premier, serious science playground and give more kids the power of
real science.

Station
Area
Specific Plan Update
The Millbrae Station Area
Specific
Plan
("Specific
Plan"), which was initially
developed and adopted in
1998, is proposed to be updated. The Specific Plan
would guide future public improvements and private development in the Plan Area
over the next 25 years. Associated with the Specific
Plan update are amendments to the General Plan
and Zoning Ordinance which
would also need to be updated in order to be consistent with the new Specific
Plan, utilizing the procedure
in Article XXVIII, Amendments, of the Millbrae Municipal Code.
Final Environmental Impact
Report
The Environmental Impact
Report has been prepared in
accordance with the California Environmental Quality
Act ("CEQA") for the "Project". The Project is composed of the update to the
Specific Plan and two specific Transit Oriented Development (TOD) proposals,
referred to as TOD #1 and
TOD#2. The two TOD proposals are located within the
boundaries of the Specific
Plan.
The Planning Commission
will consider recommendations to the City Council on
1) certification of the Final
Environmental Impact Report, and 2) adoption of the
Specific Plan and related
General Plan and Zoning
Ordinance amendments.
Additional information on the
Specific Plan Update is

CLINTON
Continued from page 1
fought over the private email account she
maintained as President Barack Obamas
chief diplomat.
I came here because I said I would, an
exhausted Clinton told Rep. Trey Gowdy of
South Carolina, her chief interrogator. I
tried to answer your questions. I cannot do
any more than that.
Gowdy declared after the end of the session: We keep going on.
He portrayed the investigation as a nonpartisan, fact-finding exercise although fellow Republicans recently described it as
designed to hurt Clintons presidential bid.
Democrats have pointed out that the probe
has now cost U.S. taxpayers more than $4.5
million and, after 17 months, lasted longer
than the 1970s Watergate investigation.
When Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor,
said the hearing wasnt a prosecution, Rep.
Adam Smith, a Washington Democrat,
bluntly disagreed. He told Clinton: The purpose of this committee is to prosecute you.
The appearance came at a moment of political strength for Clinton. A day earlier, Vice
President Joe Biden announced he would not
compete with her in the presidential race.
She also is riding the momentum of a solid
debate performance last week.
For Clinton, the political theater of the

FEEDBACK
Continued from page 1
As officials and residents consider how
quality of life in Burlingame will be altered
by issues such as housing, economic development, zoning, open space, traffic, parking and other concerns, the general plan
will become a central reference point to
influence decisions, said Gardiner.
The general plan really sets in motion
pretty much everything that goes on in the
community, in terms of the things that
change and the things that stay the same,
he said.
The workshop this weekend will give residents a chance to express their opinion on
large, general issues as well as more specific ideas such as where a new park or bike
path should be developed.

WEEKEND JOURNAL
hearing offered both opportunity and potential pitfalls. It gave her a high-profile platform to show her self-control and command
of foreign policy. But it also left her vulnerable to claims that she helped politicize the
Benghazi tragedy.
In one tense moment, Republican Rep.
Jim Jordan of Ohio accused her of deliberately misleading the public by linking the
Benghazi violence at first to an Internet
video insulting the Muslim Prophet
Muhammad.
Clinton, stone-faced for much of the hearing, smiled in bemusement as Jordan cut her
off from answering. Offered the chance to
comment, she said some people had wanted to use the video to justify the attack that
killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three
other Americans, and that she rejected that
justification.
The argument went to the origins of the
Benghazi saga and how Obama and top aides
represented the attack in the final weeks of
his re-election campaign. And it reflected
the raw emotion the deadly violence still
provokes, something Clinton will face
over the course of her White House bid even
if the Republican-led investigation loses
steam.
There were probably a number of different motivations for the attack, Clinton
said, recalling a time before a clear picture
had emerged. Speaking to Jordan, she said:
Im sorry that it doesnt fit your narrative.
I can only tell you what the facts were.
As the hearing neared its conclusion,

Republican questions became increasingly

aggressive. Rep. Martha Roby of Alabama,
however, drew laughter from Clinton by
asking if she was alone the whole night
of the attacks after returning home.
Challenged that she didnt care enough
about the victims, Clinton choked up while
recounting a conversation with a wounded
Benghazi guard. Please do everything you
can so that I can go back in the field,
Clinton said he asked her. I told him I
would. He was determined to go back, to
protect our diplomats, to protect you when
you travel, she said, directing the last part
to lawmakers.
Clinton made no gaffes. And she never
raised her voice in the manner she did at a
Senate hearing on Benghazi in January
2013. Then, she shouted: What difference,
at this point, does it make? Republicans
campaigned off that oft-repeated sound bite,
and she was careful to avoid leaving a similarly indelible image Thursday.
Gowdy said important questions remain
unanswered: Why was the U.S. in Libya,
why were security requests denied, why
couldnt the military respond quickly on the
11th anniversary of 9/11 and why did the
administration change explanations of the
attacks in the weeks afterward?

Gardiner said the workshop is designed to

be as simple and inclusive as possible for
all members of the community to participate.
Adults, children and teens are all invited
to attend the event, which will feature interactive stations and maps which residents
can draw on to visualize their concepts, said
Gardiner.
Though many who are unfamiliar with the
planning process may be intimidated or
overwhelmed by the notion of creating a
document which will influence the development of such an essential document,
Gardiner said, the community outreach
process is designed to be educational and
informative.
People are surprised by how much fun it
ends up being and how interested they find
they are, he said.
Ultimately, the process is expected to
take between two to three years, said

Gardiner, but there will be plenty of chances

for residents, business owners and community members to provide feedback throughout.
Gardiner noted though the update is a
tremendous undertaking for city staff, which
is why it is imperative to break the process
down into manageable steps, such as the
upcoming community workshop.
As much as it can feel like a daunting
task at the beginning, if you look at each
phase as a milestone or stepping stone, it
feels more approachable, he said.
Following the workshop, officials will
spend the subsequent months digesting the
feedback they received with an eye to making a presentation summarizing the input to
a citizens advisory committee in December,
said Gardiner.
Moving into next year, there will be more
community workshops and presentations
before the citys various commissions and

Clinton focused on the bigger picture,
starting with a plea for the U.S. to maintain
a global leadership role despite threats to
its diplomats. She said perfect security can
never be achieved, drawing on attacks on
U.S. diplomatic and military installations
overseas during both Democratic and
Republican administrations.
In Beirut we lost far more Americans, not
once but twice within a year, she said of the
1983 attacks in Lebanon that killed more
than 250 Americans and dozens of others
while Ronald Reagan was president.
People rose above politics. A Democratic
Congress worked with a Republican administration to say, What do we need to
learn?
At times, Clintons effort to restrain herself from a fight was apparent, but she gradually joined the fray. She nodded when
Democrats fought as her proxies, such as
when Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland
described the probe as a partisan campaign
replete with implausible conspiracy theories.
The Republican criticism has included
contentions by some lawmakers that
Clinton personally denied security requests
and ordered the U.S. military to stand
down during the attacks. None of these
were substantiated in the independent
Accountability Review Board investigation
ordered by Clinton after the attacks or seven
subsequent congressional investigations.
Thursdays hearing yielded no such evidence, either.
also the City Council, said Gardiner.
Residents who are interested in providing
input, but cannot attend the workshop this
weekend, are encouraged to visit envisionburlingame.com and sign up for news alerts,
said Gardiner.
The website currently offers sparse information, but more news and data will be
available as the process moves forward, he
said.
Gardiner said input from residents is integral in forming the plan, as officials want
the community to inform the development
of a document which will leave a lasting
impact on the future of Burlingame.
As we hear feedback, it brings the plan to
life, he said. With more information, the
plan
gets
better

achievements in the district during his tenure, but believes there
is further room for improvement.
Weve gotten to a point where
we have managed to do well, but
we can do better, he said.
District students scored in the
upper echelon of San Mateo
County schools on the most
recent round of Smarter Balanced
test scores, which gauge comprehension of the recently implemented Common Core education
standards.
Yet despite the recent successes,
Phan also agreed more could be
done to improve the academic
environment in the district.
Phan, who has worked as a substitute teacher in the district periodically, said he believes
Common Core lends the opportunity to offer a blended education
which offers a variety of lessons
across disciplines.
Im an advocate for a fully-integrated education, he said.
Nishimoto said she wants to
ensure as the district implements
new Common Core standards,
each school in the district has
equal opportunity for offering students a quality education.
There is inconsistency in
equality in terms of the type of
curriculum that is being taught in
these schools, she said.
Kaul, who ran unopposed when
he was elected four years ago, said
he believes the district has done a
good job of utilizing technology
in delivering new lessons.
As the educational landscape
continues to change, and more
districts locally turn their focus to
science, technology, engineering
and math curriculum, or STEM,
Kaul said he believes offering such
educational opportunities to district students is a worthy venture.
I think STEM is the right direction for the curriculum to be
taught, he said.
Not all other candidates shared
that same enthusiasm though.
Despite a growing interest in

There
are
elements
of
STEM we want
to take advantage of, but I do
not know we

said.
Phan said he is an advocate for
science and mathematics technology, but would like the curriculum
presented clearly and efficiently,
which may require a greater focus
on professional development to
familiarize teachers with the
nuances of delivering such lessons.
Nishimoto also said she
believes officials should work
closely with district teachers to
build a close, collaborative partnership.
I do feel the relationship
between the teachers and staff and
district could use a lot of improvement, she said.
The districts financial footing
has improved in recent years, said
Kaul, which has aided in mending
the relationship between teachers
and district administration, as the
budget has grown to allow more
pay hikes for educators.
He said he takes pride in advocating for fiscal responsibility on
the board, which is becoming
increasingly important as an
influx of students join the district.
The district has grown by roughly 1,400 students, from approximately 2,600 students in the past
eight years to more than 4,000
students, said Kaul.
Tashjian said addressing the
growing student population has
been a priority for the board in
recent years.

caused by the
new students pouring into the district.
Phan said he believes the district has done an admirable job of
managing challenges associated
with the growth.
But he noted the need for officials to stay vigilant in watching
enrollment trends, to ensure there
is not a future downturn in the
amount of students filling seats in
classrooms.
Nishimoto also agreed the district has done well to accommodate the demands of many new students joining the district in a relatively short amount of time.
I think the district and the community has done a great job to
address
that,
she
said.
Enrollment is going to be an
issue no matter what.
But as new classrooms are continually added throughout the district, Nishimoto reiterated her
desire to see those assets distributed equally to all schools.
Kaul said as officials continue to
oversee construction of new buildings, he believes they are laying
the groundwork for resolving a
major concern for the district.
The bond money is being spent
well, he said. We are getting our
moneys worth.

Irans top leader endorses

a landmark nuclear deal
By Ali Akbar Dareini
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEHRAN, Iran Irans supreme

leader on Wednesday endorsed a
landmark nuclear deal reached with
world powers, but warned the government to be vigilant, saying the
United States cannot be trusted.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who
has the final say on all state matters, endorsed the deal in a letter
to moderate President Hassan
Rouhani that was read on state TV.
Until now he had declined to publicly approve or reject the deal
while expressing support for
Irans negotiators.
The agreement reached in July
with the U.S., Britain, France,
China, Russia and Germany would
curb Irans nuclear activities in
exchange for the lifting of crippling international sanctions.
Western nations have long suspected Iran of pursuing nuclear
weapons alongside its civilian

program, charges rejected by

Tehran, which insists its program
is entirely peaceful.
The agreement has been the subject of fierce debate within Iran,
with hard-liners arguing that the
negotiators gave up too much
ground. They also fear the agreement could lead to a broader rapprochement with the United
States, which they still deride as
the Great Satan.
Irans parliament approved the
deal in two stormy sessions that
saw lawmakers shout at one
another and at least one hard-line
parliamentarian burst into tears.
Irans constitutional watchdog,
the Guardian Council, ratified the
bill a week ago, marking the last
legal step for official approval.
Khameneis expression of support largely resolves the debate in
favor of Rouhanis moderate
camp, handing them a major victory ahead of parliamentary elections.

Israeli man shot dead after

being mistaken for attacker
By Tia Goldenberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM A Jewish Israeli

man was shot and killed in a scuffle with Israeli soldiers who suspected he was a Palestinian attacker, police said Thursday, in a
reflection of the jittery mood that
has gripped Israelis amid a spate of
near-daily stabbings.
The shooting came as Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was
in Germany for talks with U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry on
how to restore calm. Kerry
expressed a cautious measure of
optimism following the fourhour meeting about proposals that
could help defuse tensions. Kerry

is set to meet with the Palestinians

this weekend.
Police
spokesman
Micky
Rosenfeld said the shooting of the
Israeli man in Jerusalem late
Wednesday occurred after soldiers
patrolling the area asked him to
show ID as he got off a bus.
The man refused, scuffled with
the soldiers and then attempted to
seize one of their weapons. A private security guard nearby shot the
man, and one soldier also opened
fire, police said. The man later died
of his wounds.
Police said the soldiers had
grown suspicious when the man,
speaking in Hebrew, asked to see
their IDs and proclaimed, I am
ISIS, referring to the Islamic
State militant group.
