HSR: What about San Mateo?
City opposed to high-speed rail aerial viaduct for downtown
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
While its neighbors to the north
and south have raised a stink over
the possibility of high-speed trains
zipping across an aerial viaduct,
leaders in San Mateo have been rel-
atively quiet on the matter.
Leaders in Belmont and
Burlingame have sent off letters to
the Federal Railroad Administrative
asking for it not to grant more than
A recall of 500 million eggs from two Iowa farms has boosted local sales as shoppers, above, look for deals at the
Burlingame farmers’market Sunday.The egg recall began Aug.13 when the Wright County Egg company-based in
Galt,Iowa voluntarily recalled eggs that had been linked to more than a thousand cases of salmonella poisoning.
Egg recall boosts local sales
By William Jeske
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Even though a small portion of
the recalled half-billion eggs linked
to several cases of salmonella poi-
soning made their way from two
Iowan farms to California grocer
shelves, customer confidence in San
Mateo County hasn’t soured toward
egg consumption.
Actually, the recall helped boost
egg sales at local farmers’ markets.
“More customers are purchasing
eggs from farmers’ markets,” said
Allen Moy, assistant director for the
$1 billion to the California High-
Speed Rail Authority to electrify the
Caltrain tracks and build a new tran-
sit station in Millbrae.
Leaders in San Mateo have not
crafted such a letter even though the
city decided on its own nearly 15
years ago that electrified Caltrain
tracks should run underground
through the city’s downtown going
north to Burlingame.
San Mateo’s downtown straddles

where their food is coming from.
“It’s not filtered down through
distributors,” he said. “There’s veri-

houses in the state.”
The egg recall began Aug. 13
when the Wright County Egg com-
pany-based in Galt, Iowa voluntari-
ly recalled eggs that had been linked
to more than a thousand cases of
salmonella poisoning. A specific
amount of eggs recalled wasn’t
cited but CNN reported the amount
at 380 million on Aug. 19.

1950, in 12 newspapers, according to
King Features. It considered dropping

The town of Colma: What’s in a name?
T
he origin of the name Colma seems
to be lost in the mist of history. Many
feel that it was derived from the gold
mining town of Colima, Calif. in the foothills
where the California Gold Rush started.
Another story is that a youngster and his mom
were traveling by train and got off at the
School Station. A chill was in the air and the
boy supposedly said “Jeez, it’s cold, Ma!”
Whatever the derivation, the name of Colma
stuck to the western area from the base of San
Bruno Mountain, west to the ocean, south
from the San Francisco/San Mateo County
line to the area of Brooksville’s Hotel
(Malloy’s Tavern).
In the 1700s, the Spanish blazed a trail up
the Peninsula that has persisted to modern
times — El Camino Real. A side road was
developed from El Camino Real, going to the
west, in the “Colma” area that led to the San
Pedro Valley mission — San Pedro Road. All
but a couple of blocks of that road have dis-
appeared due to housing developments in the
1960s. When in the early 1850s the land that
abuts the northern county line was declared
available for settling, a land rush occurred and
much of it was developed for farming as well
as dairies and a little commercial develop-
ment along the El Camino Real (Mission

After the San Francisco and San Jose Railroad
construction was started in 1861, a station was
built to serve the area. It was called School
Station at first, but eventually the name Colma
was chosen. The railroad station became a
focal point for the farmers of the area. They
could now ship out their abundant crops. Now
that there was a better means of transporting
their produce and other products to cities far
away, the area exploded in activity. In addi-
tion to vegetables and pig products, extensive
flower-growing began. The land was perfect
for violets and they became the symbol asso-
ciated with the area.
In 1901, noting that land was becoming
scarce, the city of San Francisco decreed that
burial in the cemeteries of the city had to
cease and the bodies already there had to be
moved. Colma had already started to develop
cemeteries, but when San Francisco’s law
became final, a land-rush occurred in the
Colma area. Eventually16 cemeteries were
established within the city limits of Colma.

Fed boost for Mandarin program

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Mandarin could be the newest
language mastered by San Mateo
students as a five-year, $1.4 million
grant will help educators expand
offerings of internationally-inspired
lesson for students in preschool
through college.
Last week, the San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School District
announced it would receive a $1.4
million federal grant over the next
five years to support expansion of
the Mandarin program at College
Park Elementary School in North
Central San Mateo. Kindergarten
through third grade students at
College Park can participate in a
Mandarin immersion program. With
the grant money, the district plans to
partner with a number of organiza-
tion to expand offerings of the lan-
guage to students in preschool
through college.
“It was a giant gamble that paid
off,” said Principal Diana Hallock.
The $1.4 million Foreign
Language Assistance Program grant
is part of a larger expansion plan
that partners the district with the
University of California at
Berkeley, the National Center for
Chinese Language Pedagogy,
College Park Mandarin preschool,
the Shaolin Chinese Cultural
Center, the Kaui Le Mandarin after-
school enrichment program and the
San Mateo Union High School
District.
“Our Mandarin Scholars program
provides students of all languages
and backgrounds the opportunity to
learn one of the most influential lan-
guages of the 21st century. Our
bilingual and trilingual students
learn the California standards in
both English and Mandarin for all
academic subjects including lan-
guage arts, math, social studies, sci-
ence and physical education. What a
rare and fabulous opportunity for
our fortunate students at our
school,” Hallock said.
Together, the district hopes stu-
dents will have the ability to retain
and master Mandarin better with
access to classes through college.
College Park hosts three
Mandarin preschools on campus
and has immersion classes offered
for students in kindergarten through
third grades. About half of the third-
grade students are in the program.
But all new students are enrolled.

Superintendent product of school district he now heads

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It was through extensive traveling in South
America that James Lianides gained two very
important things in his life: the ability to flu-
ently speak Spanish and an introduction to the
woman he would eventual-
ly marry.
Lianides decided to trav-
el after earning his college
degree. Flying to Peru and
traveling through each
country as he traveled
north back home meant
Lianides returned the states
Jim Lianides with the skills to speak two
languages. He also met
Nancy, who is today his wife of 30 years. It’s
that adventurous spirit that led Lianides onto
the career path of education.
This fall, 56-year-old Lianides takes on a
new role in the Sequoia Union High School
District. As of July 1, Lianides took over as
head of the 8,200-student district after outgo-
ing superintendent Pat Gemma retired June 30
after seven years in the position.
Lianides is not only a leader in the Sequoia
district community, but a product of it. He
graduated from Woodside High School — as
did his two sons — and he continues residing
A weekly look at the people
who shape our community
in Redwood City where he serves as a member
of the Rotary Club.
Lianides grew up eight blocks from where he
currently lives. An inquisitive youth, Lianides
had a lot of hobbies and an interest in rocks and
fossils — one which remains today. In high
school, he enjoyed cross country and track.
Picking a major took a number of turns. At
one point Lianides considered going into the
medical field, but found an interest in the social
sciences.
After graduating from the University of
California at Berkeley, he traveled south.
While exploring South America, he met a
group of archeology students on a train.
Lianides began spending time with the group,
which included his future wife Nancy. The two
would marry three years later. In the meantime,
Lianides returned to the states. Having the abil-
ity to teach and a new mastery of Spanish put
Lianides in demand. He taught bilingual class-
es in Los Angeles for two years before a posi-
tion in Redwood City opened and allowed him
to return home.
Lianides taught for eight years at Garfield
Elementary School in Redwood City.
“I still run into students from time to time.
They remember me, but I don’t immediately
recognize them. I see them as a 10-year-old
and now they’re 30,” he said.
While at Garfield, Lianides enrolled at San
Jose State University to study administration.
His first opportunity to serve as a principal
came with a one-year stint in Half Moon Bay
followed by 10 years as a principal in
Mountain View, two at an elementary and eight
at a middle school.
That’s when Lianides took his biggest leap.
Lianides joined the Pacifica School District
in 1999 at chief business officer, during that
time he was recognized statewide as business
services administrator of the year by the
Association of California School
Administrators.
The jump in job positions meant new chal-
lenges for Lianides who was interested in but
didn’t have a background in finances.
Thankfully for Lianides, the superintendent at
the time wanted a chief business officer who
knew instruction. Lianides knew instruction
but spent the first year learning all the financial
details needed to run a district.
In 2003, after his sons had both graduated
from high school, Lianides enrolled at
Berkeley again to earn his doctorate. The hard
work paid off. Around the time that Lianides
earned his degree, he was named the Pacifica
superintendent.
He joined the Sequoia Union High School
District in 2008 and was named the new super-
intendent in March.
Coming into his new role, Lianides plans to
focus on financial stability and improving stu-
dent achievement.
In finances, Lianides noted the district is run-
ning with a structural deficit that needs to be
addressed. Analyzing programs offered to be
sure those truly helping students, not just ones
that are loved by the district, are maintained
while the budget is balanced.
Lianides is under a three-year contract with
the district which provides a base annual salary
of $195,000 with 2 percent annual increases
each July 1. He shall receive an additional
$1,000 annually for a master’s degree and
$1,000 for a doctorate.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VISALIA — A Mormon church
official was shot dead between serv-
ices on Sunday, and less than an
hour later, the man suspected of the
crime also died after a shoot-out
with police.
Clay Sannar, 42, a lay bishop with
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-

Fresno, died after being shot in his
office, said Visalia police chief

proposal would be to offer classes at

Students from the San Mateo-

The suspect was hit multiple
times. He was taken to nearby

where he was pronounced dead. He

The information is being ana-

additional dives, researchers said.
Jack Hunter, an underwater
archaeologist for Caltrans, was part
of a 1996 dive that approached the
ship. He thinks the oil is still on
board, and worries the wreck has
deteriorated since he looked at it.
“The structures of the ship are still

lapse at some point.”

Obama commits to revival of Gulf Coast

By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS — Five years
after Hurricane Katrina’s wrath,
President Barack Obama sought to
reassure disaster-weary Gulf Coast
residents Sunday that he would not
abandon their cause.
“My administration is going to
stand with you, and fight alongside
you, until the job is done,” Obama
said to cheers at Xavier University, a
historically black, Catholic universi-
ty that was badly flooded by the
storm.
The president said there are still
too many vacant lots, trailers serving
as classrooms, displaced residents
and people out of work. But he said

residents had hoped Obama would
take the opportunity to announce an
early end to the deepwater drilling
moratorium he enacted after the
spill. But he made no mention of the
moratorium, which people here say
is costing jobs.
Obama did offer a list of accom-
plishments on Katrina recovery he
said his administration has achieved,
including helping move residents out
of temporary housing, streamlining
money for schools and restoration
projects, and working to rebuild the
poorly maintained levee system that
failed the city when Katrina struck.
He promised that work on a forti-
fied levee system would be finished
by next year, “so that this city is pro-
tected against a 100-year storm.
Because we should not be playing
Russian roulette every hurricane sea-
son.”
Implicit in Obama’s remarks was
an indictment of sorts against former
President George W. Bush’s admin-
istration for its handling of the crisis.
Obama called Katrina and its after-
math not just a natural disaster but “a
manmade catastrophe — a shameful
breakdown in government that left
countless men, women and children
abandoned and alone.”
But Obama has faced questions of
his own about how his administra-
tion handled the Gulf spill, including
accusations officials moved too
slowly and deferred too much to BP.
The White House has scrambled
repeatedly to right the response,
pleasing Gulf Coast residents with a
$20 billion victims’ compensation
fund Obama pushed BP to establish.

Glenn Beck: Help us restore

traditional American values
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Conservative com-
mentator Glenn Beck and tea party champion
Sarah Palin appealed Saturday to a vast, pre-
dominantly white crowd on the National Mall
to help restore traditional American values
and honor Martin Luther King’s message.
Civil rights leaders who accused the group of
hijacking King’s legacy held their own rally
and march.
While Beck billed his event as nonpolitical,
conservative activists said their show of
strength was a clear sign that they can swing
elections because much of the country is
angry with what many voters call an out-of-
touch Washington.
Palin told the tens of thousands who
stretched from the marble steps of the Lincoln
Memorial to the grass of the Washington
Monument that calls to transform the country
weren’t enough. “We must restore America
and restore her honor,” said the former Alaska
governor, echoing the name of the rally,
“Restoring Honor.”
Palin, the GOP vice presidential nominee in
2008 and a potential White House contender
in 2012, and Beck repeatedly cited King and
made references to the Founding Fathers.
Beck put a heavy religious cast on nearly all
his remarks, sounding at times like an evan-
gelical preacher.

California flops the Race to the Top
F
or the second time,
California has lost its bid to
receive federal education
dollars in the Race to the Top com-
petition.
It is no secret that the main rea-
son our state failed to secure fund-
ing was because the teachers union
did not endorse the reform efforts
required. California placed 16th of
the 19th finalists, losing out on
$700 million. “The lack of firm
commitment from unions ... could
prove problematic and may inter-
fere with the state implementing
aspects of the proposed reform
agenda,” according to federal eval-
uators. But the union’s primary role
is to look after its members. Its pri-
mary purpose is to protect jobs and
enhance salaries. This can be at
odds with the goal of Race to The
Top which is to improve student
performance, especially in poor
and neglected communities. The
states which were successful had
demonstrated a commitment from
unions, school districts and parents
to make needed change.
The California Teachers
Association (CTA) is a major play-
er in Sacramento. Its PAC is a
major contributor to elected offi-
cials. It also wields a heavy hand
over local teacher unions.
It wasn’t always that way.
***
When I was first elected to the
San Mateo Elementary School
Board (now the San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School Board) in
April 1973, there was no
Proposition 13 and there was no
mandated collective bargaining
even though there were teacher
associations. Local boards set the
tax rate and established salaries.
Healthy pleasures
“B
e joyful, though
you’ve considered
all the facts.” —
Ashleigh Brilliant
I was reading the morning news-
paper and getting more disgusted,
outraged and depressed with each
turn of the page. Then I looked
outside and noticed what a fantas-
tic day it was. The wild and crazy
riot of color in the garden, the
spirited chirping of the birds, the
vivid blue sky — all washed over
my senses. Such simple pleasures!
Yet stopping for a minute and tak-
ing in the scene of summer bright-
ened my day and made a great dif-
ference in my outlook on the
world. It’s very easy to get bogged
down by murder, mayhem and
political offal if you read the
newspapers, watch the news on
televisions, and if you write
columns that relate to current
events.
What better time than summer
to loosen up, take a bit of time out
and enjoy the little things? This
makes me think of a book I read a
while back titled, “Healthy
Pleasures,” by Robert Ornstein,
Ph.D. and David Sobel, M.D.
What drew me to the book in the
first place was the authors’ unusu-
al outlook about living healthfully.
They say that it isn’t so much the
state of our blood pressure, cho-
lesterol, fitness, body padding, etc.
that makes the difference in our
health and longevity, but the atti-
tude we carry with us through our
daily lives.
Whether we grimly plod
through our days, nose to the
grindstone, never looking around
We used our authority to raise taxes
minimally if at all. We paid our teachers well,
because we had the property taxes to do so and
the state did not control our finances.
This was the golden age of educa-
tion in California. The arrangement
worked well in San Mateo (I can’t
vouch for other places). The school
board wanted to keep voters and
teachers happy. We used our
authority to raise taxes minimally if
at all. We paid our teachers well,
because we had the property taxes
to do so and the state did not con-
trol our finances.
But all of this was to change
drastically. In November 1978,
California voters passed
Proposition 13 which limited
increases in property assessments.
So schools would not go broke, a
complicated formula was put in
place for the state to provide fund-
ing. At the same time, the courts
approved Serrano v. Priest, a meas-
ure to equalize school funding. The
result was a leveling down.
Wealthier suburban districts lost
money to poorer districts, but since
the pie was now much smaller, the
poorer districts did not really gain.
The third major change was the
introduction of collective bargain-
ing in 1975. School boards and
teacher unions became adversaries
instead of a team working together.
And we were negotiating over a
smaller pot of money. School board
members took training on how to
become an employer, collective
bargaining style. Each side hired
lawyers. There were long meetings
behind closed doors.
But even though we had our dif-

addiction or sensationalism.
us as we run on the treadmill of
constant activity, or we let every
negative thing get to us instead of
taking the time to enjoy the many
healthy pleasures that the authors
describe in their book, can make a
great difference in our physical
and psychological well-being.
They write, “The collective weight
of the evidence strongly points to
how positive mood influences
resistance to and recovery from
disease. The opposite is true as
well: negative moods, depression,
hostility and a lack of pleasure all
seem to contribute to poor health.
There appears to be a physiology
of happiness which communicates
to our heart, our immune system,
our entire body.”
Ornstein and Sobel are careful
to caution that it’s best to practice
moderation in all things. One’s
diet, lifestyle, emotional issues
and social activities must all be
taken into account. But if we don’t
slow down and become mindful
enough to allow ourselves to take
in those things that recharge our
batteries and uplift out spirits, not
only does quality of life suffer, but
all of the concentration on calorie
and cholesterol numbers, aerobic
exercise, body image, etc. won’t
do all that much good. Many stud-
ies are cited to back this up.
To enjoy healthy pleasures, we
have to maintain some detachment
OPINION
ferences at the bargaining table,
things were still local and friendly.
When I was on the high school
board, the union voluntary did not
take a pay raise during some diffi-
cult years, confident that the board
would take care of our teachers
when times improved. Which we
did. There was a great deal of
respect and trust between negotia-
tors on both side of the table.
***
It is different today. CTA has a
representative at local collective
bargaining sessions. CTA has a
wish list which may not meet the
needs of individual districts or
teachers. And it is more like negoti-
ations in the private sector. The
impacts of Proposition 13 and the
continued budget problems in
Sacramento have made things
worse. Add to that a flood of stu-
dents from other countries who
need extra help learning English.
Add to that the increase in the
number of students who are born to
single parents, or to teenage par-
ents or to parents who just don’t
care. Teachers are now faced with a
lot more on their plate than just
educating students. In many cases
they have to assume the role of par-
ent, nurse, counselor and discipli-
narian. Classes are too large.
Students are too lazy, unruly and
not interested in school. And the
rules and restrictions from the state
education code to the union con-
tract make it difficult to reward
from ourselves and a certain
looseness about life. Our minds
and hearts must be open and
receptive. Then, as we tune into
our feelings, we will sense a
release of tension, a sense of
pleasure and sometimes a bit of
transcendence from the mundane.
As a result, healthy pleasures help
prevent uprightness of all sorts —
to loosening up the workaholic
who feels compelled to be con-
stantly productive, to mellowing
those who spend a lot of their
energy worrying about this calorie
and that pec, or lamenting the
state of the nation. And healthy
pleasures delectably enrich the
lives of those who have already
honed that ability to hang loose.
So what are healthy pleasures?
You’ve probably thought of a
bunch already. How about thera-
peutic touch, viewing a beautiful
sunset, aquarium watching, listen-
ing to and/or moving to inspira-
tional music, enjoying good food
and a glass of fine wine, pleasura-
ble gardening, playing with chil-
dren, enjoying a good laugh, walk-
ing in lovely surroundings, read-
ing a good book, singing in the
shower, learning something new,
creating something satisfying with
our hands or our minds, enjoying
the company of companionable
people, helping someone in need.

Business brief
Gas prices down about 7 cents in 2 weeks
CAMARILLO — A new survey finds the average price of
regular gasoline in the United States has dropped 7.43 cents
in the last two weeks.
The Lundberg Survey of fuel prices released Sunday says
the price of a gallon of regular fell to 2.70.
Analyst Trilby Lundberg says the average price for a gal-
lon of mid-grade was $2.85, and premium was at $2.96.
St. Louis had the lowest average price among cities sur-
veyed at $2.39 a gallon for regular. San Francisco was high-
est among surveyed cities at $3.13.

Stocks dirt cheap now
By Bernard Condon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — With the market
down three weeks in a row, investors are
understandably grim. But there is a sil-
ver lining: Stocks are looking almost as
cheap as last year when prices hit 12-
year lows — at least according to Wall
Street analysts.
It was easy to miss the development
amid news of falling home sales, a
drooping dollar and sluggish orders for
big-ticket goods. But stocks in the
Standard & Poor’s 500 index now trade
at just 11.7 times analyst estimates of
operating earnings for the coming year.
That is one of the lowest — read cheap-
est — levels for this key figure.
In fact, this so-called price-earnings
multiple is roughly back where it stood
at the end of March 2009 just as the mar-
ket was starting an 80 percent surge.
A lot of investors are kicking them-
selves for having missed that run-up.
The question now: Should they jump in
now to not to miss another?
Though it’s a rough measure of a
stock’s value, the earnings multiple
Asia assesses prospects as world recovery stumbles
By Kelly Olsen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEOUL, South Korea — Talk of the
global economic recovery fizzling does-
n’t faze Cho Byung-cheol, president of a
small South Korean technology compa-
ny that has already set up a branch in
China and plans one soon in the United
States.
The company, which designs and
makes semiconductor-based high-speed
data storage and processing equipment,
is planning to boost its South Korean
workforce of nearly 60 by half, says
Cho, who founded Seoul-based Taejin
Infotech Co. in 1996. Sales, which
totaled only 8.4 billion won ($7 million)
last year, could swell fourfold this year
and reach 100 billion won next year, he
predicts.
holds a certain logic. Before buying the
corner pizzeria, you would want to know
how many years it would take selling
pies and sodas to earn your money back.
You can do that by dividing the price
you’d have to pay for the business by the
profit it generates over a year.
So too with stocks. The earnings mul-
tiple divides stock prices by annual earn-
ings to tell you, in a sense, the number of
years it might take to be made whole on
your investment. The nearly 12 years
that analysts say it would take if you
bought stocks now compares with an
average of maybe 15 over the past two
decades.
But the faster clip assumes actual
profits won’t fall short of the projected
ones, and some longtime market
observers are worried about that.
“Some analysts are projecting earn-
ings will hit an all-time high in a year,”
says Howard Silverblatt, senior index
analyst at Standard & Poor’s. “That
would be nice but I wouldn’t bet on it.”
History suggests he’s right to be skep-
tical.
An April study by McKinsey & Co. of
analyst projections over 25 years
Sitting in his spacious, well-ordered
office, Cho’s confidence belies the grim
mood that has settled over global stock
markets in the past month as indicators
from the U.S. to Japan show the eco-
nomic rebound is running out of juice.
Asia’s big corporate names from
Toyota to Singapore Airlines to
Samsung Electronics have ridden a wave
of recovery from the world’s worst
downturn in decades as emerging power-
houses China and India spruced demand
with massive injections of government
stimulus.
Now, with interest rates rising, gov-
ernment spending programs winding
down, the U.S. recovery looking shaky
and debt problems lingering over
Europe, there are doubts whether Asia,
still reliant on exports for growth, can
sustain its momentum.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
showed they are almost always too opti-
mistic. On average, analysts estimated
that profits would grow at 10 percent to
12 percent annually — almost twice as
much as they actually did.
The two periods when analysts low-
balled profit growth were in the early
’90s and early ’00s when the U.S. was
coming out of recession as it is today.
Mason Hawkins, CEO of
Southeastern Asset Management, has
trounced the market by buying stocks
when others are selling, and he’s been
buying lately. His flagship Longleaf
Partners Fund returned 4.9 percent annu-
ally in the past ten years versus a 1.6 per-
cent decline in the S&P 500.
To get a sense of whether stocks are
cheap, the 62-year-old Hawkins looks at
how much of your investment you get
back in earnings in a year. Based on ana-
lyst estimates, if you bought every Dow
stock at Friday’s 10,150.65 close, you’d
get 11 percent back. Though you’re not
actually pocketing any cash, that’s still a
big return. After all, some relatively safe
investment-grade corporate bonds are
throwing off annual interest of 5.3 per-
cent what you pay for them now.
Maintaining the current torrid pace of
growth appears unlikely. China’s econo-
my grew 10.3 percent in the second
quarter, albeit slowing from an even
more blistering rate in the first.
Singapore surged 19.3 percent, its best
result since the country began releasing
quarterly growth figures in 1975. And
South Korea expanded 7.6 percent in the
first half of this year, its best perform-
ance in 10 years.
Even Cho, counting on an explosion in
demand for his company’s products
driven by expanding use of smartphones
and cloud computing, expects the global
economy to hit rough waters over the
next six months to a year. “But as a
broad trend, I expect it, including my
company, to grow,” he says.
Not many are predicting a setback for
Asia as serious as last year’s recession.

Warriors want to finish

By Emanuel Lee
Woodside
is a work
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The South San Francisco High

football team knows what it’s like
to come up agonizingly short.
Last year, the Warriors were lit-
erally a couple of plays away
from beating Half Moon Bay and
San Mateo, which would’ve won
them a Peninsula Athletic League
Ocean Division championship
and clinched a berth into the
Central Coast Section playoffs.
Unfortunately for South San
Francisco, it lost both contests by
a combined four points.
“So that was the difference to
our season and we ended up miss-
ing the playoffs,” Warriors coach
Frank Moro said.
To that end, South City has
worked more than ever in practice
on finishing every play strong and
being supremely focused on the
critical third- and fourth-down sit-
uations. In last year’s 27-25 loss
to Half Moon Bay, the Warriors
were ahead late in the third quar-
ter only to see the Cougars con-
vert a 4th-and-7 en route to a
touchdown.
Then in the fourth, South City
had a 4th-and-1 but was stopped
short. In a wild, back-and-forth
34-32 loss to San Mateo, there
were several plays that could’ve
changed the outcome in South
City’s favor. But whether it was a
fumble, missed catch or penalty,
the Warriors didn’t do themselves
any favors against a strong San
Mateo team that went on to win
the division title.
“We figure there are 160 plays a

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The last time the Woodside High football
team was in the Peninsula Athletic League
Ocean Division, it ran the table all the way
to a Central Coast Section Medium School
Division championship.
But that was six years ago, on the tail end
of the Wildcats’ glory days. While no one
expects Woodside to go undefeated again,
longtime coach Steve Nicolopulos feels his
team can at the very least be competitive in
a tough Ocean Division this year. The
Wildcats are coming off a 1-9 season, win-
ning their last and only game of the season
against rival Menlo-Atherton.
“At the time, the win was important,”
Nicolopulos said. “But it doesn’t mean too
much this year because a lot of those kids
graduated.”
Just like last year, Woodside enters the
season as a work in progress. However, at
least the Wildcats have a half-dozen or so
players returning who saw significant time
the previous year, which couldn’t be said
entering the 2009 campaign.
“We’re definitely better off now than we
were last year at this point,” Nicolopulos
said. “I don’t know if we’re more talented,
but we have a little more experience to go
around to start us off differently (from last
season).”
And the Wildcats are hoping the added
experience pays off in the form of victories.
They also have more depth this season, with
a roster of around 40 players compared to
the 30 range last year. If anything,

ARLINGTON, Texas — Gio
Gonzalez won his third consecutive
start and the Oakland Athletics cut
their AL West deficit to 7 1/2 games
with an 8-2 victory Sunday, taking
two of three in their series with the
division-leading Texas Rangers.
Mark Ellis and Kevin
Kouzmanoff homered for the A’s off
Colby Lewis (9-11), while Cliff
Pennington snapped out of a 2-for-
24 slide with two singles and a sac-
rifice squeeze bunt.

day games this season.
Lewis missed on his eighth
attempt to get his 10th victory, and

It was the right-hander’s shortest
outing since pitching only five July
16 at Boston when he got his ninth
victory. Lewis is 0-6 since and Texas
has scored only eight runs while he
was on the mound in those eight
games.
There is only one more series
between the AL West’s top two
See A’S, Page 12
Kuchar’s fortunes took quite a turn
Sunday, and so did his golf ball.
Kuchar beat Martin Laird in a
playoff at The Barclays with a shot
out of the rough that rolled toward
the back of the 18th green, then
caught enough of the slope to turn
back toward the hole and stop 30
inches away for a birdie.
It was a stunning conclusion to
the first FedEx Cup playoff event.
Kuchar closed with a 5-under 66,
and it didn’t look as though it would
be enough. Laird had a one-shot
lead and needed two putts from just
inside 25 feet for the victory, when
he ran his putt 7 feet past the hole.
He missed the
par putt, setting
up the playoff.
The timing
could not have
been better for
Kuchar.
His first victo-
ry of the year
Matt Kuchar came two weeks
after he made
his first Ryder Cup team, and the
win can only give him a shot of con-
fidence. Kuchar moved to No. 1 in
the FedEx Cup standings by win-
ning the first playoff event, giving
him a good shot at the $10 million
prize. And his third career win is
likely to move him to a career-best
No. 10 in the world ranking.
Tiger Woods continues to make
progress, which in this case means
he gets to keep going.
Woods, who started these playoffs
at No. 112 in the standings, closed
with a 4-under 67 to easily make the
top 100 who advance to the second
round next week at the Deutsche
Bank Championship. Woods tied for
12th, his best finish since June, and
moved up to No. 65.
Laird, who recovered from a
shaky start, looked just as shaky at
the end, especially with his putter.
He was tied for Kuchar when he
had a 20-foot eagle putt on the par-
5 17th, only to roll it nearly 8 feet
beyond the hole. He made that
birdie putt to take the lead, then
repeated his mistake on the final

teams the final five weeks of the regular sea-
son. That is a four-game set Sept. 23-26 at
Oakland, which has an 8-7 series lead.
Josh Hamilton drove in the only two runs
for Texas, with a two-out bloop RBI single in
the third and his 31st homer in the sixth.
Hamilton has five homers his past 10 games
and raised his majors-best batting average to
.359.
Hamilton’s 403-foot blast off the facade of
the second deck of seats in right field was the
only homer allowed by Gonzalez his last
seven starts. Gonzalez has given up only 11
homers over 167 innings this season.
Oakland went ahead to stay when Ellis
broke a 1-all tie with his third homer, a tower-
ing flyball that dropped just beyond the 14-
foot wall in left-center field.
The A’s scored twice in the fifth for a 4-1
lead after Lewis’ throwing error on what
should have been an inning-ending double
play.
Lewis fielded Kurt Suzuki’s comebacker,
but threw the ball way wide of second base
and into center. Pennington scored and Daric
scoring on an inning-ending double play.
First baseman Jorge Cantu snagged Jack
Cust’s hard grounder at the bag, wiping out
the force at second. Suzuki got caught up
between first and second and avoided being
tagged long enough for Barton to score.
Kouzmanoff led off the sixth with his 12th
homer, before Pennington had his squeeze
bunt and Coco Crisp an RBI single to chase
Lewis.
Oakland had the bases loaded with no outs
in the third with is Nos. 2-4 hitters coming up,
but managed only one run on Barton’s sacri-
fice fly. In the bottom of the inning, Hamilton
drove in Julio Borbon, who had an infield sin-
gle and advanced on a sac bunt.
Notes: Oakland is 30-13 in day games, best
in the majors. ... Texas plays its next 10 games
on the road. ... The Rangers plan to activiate
RF Nelson Cruz (right hamstring) from the
disabled list before Monday night’s game in
Kansas City. He was 4 for 11 with a stolen
base in three rehab games for Double-A

Japan takes Little League WS title
By Genaro C. Armas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.
— Japan’s players weren’t about to
leave the Lamade Stadium field
without some important souvenirs.
Still wearing their bright red caps
and white uniforms, they leaned
down on the mound to scoop up
bags of dirt for what promises to be
a happy flight home from a 10-day
stay in central Pennsylvania.
Fitting, since the team from
Tokyo relied on defense and a pair
of pint-sized aces to win the Little
League World Series.
Japan limited the potent bats of
Waipahu, Hawaii, to four singles,
and got a homer and three RBIs
from Konan Tomori in a 4-1 win on
a sunny Sunday afternoon to end the
United States’ run of five straight
World Series titles.
Ryusuke Ikeda got the win with
after striking out five and allowing
all four hits over three innings,
before Ichiro Ogasawara pitched the
final three hitless innings, striking
out three to get his third save.
They met on the mound after right
fielder Teruma Nagata caught the
last out out to begin celebrating.
They were a reserved bunch after-
ward as they faced TV cameras and
reporter’s questions as if they were
big league ballplayers.
“I was obviously very happy,” the
13-year-old Ikeda said calmly
through interpreter Brian
Thompson. “The first thing I did
was to run to the mound to give
Ogasawara a hug.”
After postgame handshakes at the
plate with Hawaii, Japan got anoth-
er memento — a banner that read
“2010 Little League World Series
Champions.” They finished the tour-
nament a perfect 5-0.
The All-Star team from Tokyo’s
Edogawa Minami Little League
became the first international squad
to take the crown since Curacao in
2004. A team from Tokyo’s
Musashi-Fuchu league was the last
winner from Japan, the previous
year.
Hawaii, which had scored 29 runs
over its previous three games, came
up short at the plate against Tokyo.
The only run Sunday came on an
error off a sacrifice bunt in the
fourth, but Ogasawara worked out
of a second-and-third jam with a
strikeout and a weak bouncer.
“Whenever he started in Japan, he

Series Championship baseball game in Williamsport,Pa.Sunday.
got KO’d pretty fast,” manager
Shingo Ariyasu said. “Today, he
obviously showed some good stuff.”
Cheered on by family and friends
waving U.S. flags and tea leaves
they’ve been carrying around for
good luck, the Waipahu All-Stars
put on a valiant effort on the mound
and in the field. Thirteen-year-old
lefty starter Cody Maltezo, who
REUTERS
hadn’t pitched in roughly a month,
held Japan to four hits over 5 2-3
innings, and Noah Shackles’ fine
stop of a hard bouncer at third like-
ly saved two runs from scoring in
the third.
“They battled to the end, and
that’s all I could ask of them,”
Hawaii manager Brian Yoshii said.
“Every kid had their moment.”
THE DAILY JOURNAL
The Hawaii club comes from a
league that won the series in 2008,
and they became the first Little
League squad to play seven games
in the tournament.
But the mashers from the West
region couldn’t get the clutch hits
that had propelled their unlikely run
of four victories in four elimination
games over four days into the Little
League final.
That tough stretch limited
Yoshii’s options on the mound
given Little League’s strict pitch-
count rules. Teams with deeper
pitching staffs, or who play fewer
games, hold an advantage.
Japan had the edge on both
counts, while Yoshii had to go deep
to his bench.
“We had to throw our No. 6 pitch-
er and all he did was pitch a great
game on the biggest stage in the
world,” Yoshii said about Maltezo.
Through the week, Japan’s fans
have been cheering the team with
rhythmic clapping from the stands,
at times to the melody of “Popeye
the Sailor Man,” the muscle-bound
cartoon character.
Pitching and defense were the
forte of a squad with a team ERA of
1.92 entering Sunday.

game, and as we found out, you have
to play all of them,” Moro said.
“That’s the lesson to our players and
I think they’ve responded well. In
addition to being in shape, we have
to stay focused at all times.”
The Warriors will continue to run
the fly offense, which sends a player
in motion on every play. South City’s
run game should be strong again,
with tailbacks Falah Salam and
Kevin Cunha figuring to get the bulk
of the carries. Salam is also a threat
to catch the ball out of the backfield,
and Cunha has earned Moro’s praise
for his vision and running instincts.
Moro is particularly excited on his
team’s passing potential. In junior
quarterback Brad Los, the Warriors
just might have their best pure pass-
ing signal caller since standout Eric
Moore was on campus. The 6-foot-2,
170-pound Los actually played

serving as the team’s backup quarter-
back.
“Our aim for our offense is to get
more vertical and stretch out the field
this year,” Moro said. “And I think
we can do that with Brad, because he
has such a strong arm. We also have
speed with our wideouts.”
Moro said sophomore receivers
Jerick Anicete and Robert Johnson
are speedburners, which should take
some of the attention off returning
wideout Greg Bildhauer, who proved
to be a clutch performer last year.
The 5-foot-8, 175-pound senior com-
bines precise route running and
speed, a combination that makes him
a formidable threat.
The Warriors figure to be particu-
larly strong at linebacker. They
return standouts Darrin Tufono and
Ramzy Azar, both of whom play
with a physicality and toughness
Moro relishes. In addition to his line-
backer duties, Azar will be a guard
on the offensive line.
“Ramzy is a tough kid and is so
quick off the ball,” Moro said. “He’s
a great athlete and fits the mold
nowadays where you’re putting good
The only consolation for Laird was
being safe through next month in the
playoffs. He was at No. 95, hopeful of
advancing to the second round, and his
runner-up finish puts him at No. 3 and
virtually guarantees he’ll be among

prize.

sive lines. You’re not just throwing

And then there’s two-way junior
tackle Rika Levi, whom Moro calls
“one of the best football players I’ve
seen, comparable to (former South
City standout linemen and brothers)
Ailao and Kenape Eliapo.”
That’s high praise considering
Ailao plays at San Jose State and
Kenape was a starter at defensive
tackle — he graduated last year — at
Utah. But the 6-4, 330-pound Levi is
ready to assume the mantle of being
the school’s next Division I prospect.
“Rika is real good,” Moro said.
“Last year he pretty much played the
D-line, but this year he wanted to
play both ways. He’s got good speed,
footwork and is very strong.”

Continued from page 11

Woodside will have plenty of size

on the lines.
Andrew Tamilau (6-foot-3, 280
pounds), Tiki Mahoni (6-3, 340)
and Kiola Mahoni (6-3, 280) are all
two-way linemen. Another lineman
who will play both ways is Andrew
Kofutua, who at 5-11 and 205 is the
“smallest” person out of the quartet.
“We have good size but they all
have to come together as a unit,”
Nicolopulos said. “Our line is just
like the rest of the football team —
we’re still putting things together.”
The Wildcats have a fair amount
of athleticism, starting with senior
tailback Brenard Sims, who sat out
last year after transferring from
Menlo-Atherton. Nicolopulos said
it’s too early to describe any of his
players as “dynamic,” but he sees
some athletes on the team who have
the potential to be difference-mak-
ers.
Entering last Friday’s scrimmage
with Aragon and Palo Alto, the
Wildcats had three players vying for
quarterback: Christian Masulit,
Jason Colliau and Ricki Hoffer.
Masulit was the backup in 2009,
Colliau was third on the depth chart
and Hoffer was on the junior varsity
squad.
“Someone has to take control of
the offense and make happen what
we’re trying to make happen,”
Nicolopulos said. “It’s going to take
us a little while to figure out how all

out what type of team we’ll be in
one scrimmage. That’s something to
find out as we go along. We’ll try to
establish some things in the scrim-
mage and then we’ll build on that. ”

What that is remains to be seen, as

Is Your Lower Back
Pain and Sciatica
Ruining Your Life?
There is Finally a non-surgical answer for herniated
and degenerative discs! Don’t risk surgery until you
learn about Spinal Decompression! It has helped
thousands and it will likely help You!
At Crossroads Health Center, your Satisfaction is
Guaranteed. Let us help you get the quality of life back
that you deserve.
M y name is Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C., owner
of Crossroads Health Center in Campbell and
San Mateo. I understand what it feels like to live with
chronic back pain. Due to several auto accidents and
sports injuries, I have personally suffered from multiple
disc herniations in both my neck and lower back and
understand firsthand the severe pain and disability that
comes with these types of injuries to the point where I
was forced to sell all 3 of my practices. I did not want
to have spinal surgery due to the high risk; instead I
wanted a non-surgical non-invasive therapy that would
help me manage my condition.
That is when I turned to Spinal Decompression, not as
a doctor, but as a patient and it completely changed my
life. Within a few months my pain went from severe to
mild and I was able to return back to my activities of
golf, weight lifting and spending quality time with my
family. It has been my mission ever since to share this
great new technology with as many people as possible.
While non-surgical spinal decompression is a rather
new treatment, there’s plenty of research to back up its
or visit my website at www.BayAreaBackPain.Com.
However it’s the results we see every day in our office
that get us so excited about this new non-invasive
treatment. Read what a few of our patients are saying.
For years I have had severe back pain due to
herniated and bulging discs and sciatica pain. The pain
at times was unbearable. I’ve seen several doctors,
chiropractors, but still couldn’t get relief from the
pain, even with the meds. Surgery was advised by
my primary doctor. I saw the advertisement in the
daily paper about spinal decompression therapy, and
was very interested in this treatment since it didn’t
involve any surgery. I went in for the initial exam
and Dr. Ferrigno explained in detail the process
of the DRX9000. Since having treatment, the pain
has reduced dramatically. I am very happy with the
treatment and can walk, golf, and am able to do things
that I haven’t been able to do in years! I would also like
to say thanks to Dr. Ferrigno,
Dr. Potts and the office staff; they went above and
beyond to make sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldn’t be happier!!
—C.M. Allard
During the 1½ years of having constant daily lower
back pain and spasms, I took anti-inflammatory and
pain medication, but nothing helped lessen the pain.
Physical therapy didn’t help. When an MRI showed that
I had two degenerative discs, I went through a series of
lumbar epidural injections. The first one helped a tiny
bit, but the others didn’t do a thing for my pain. The
only thing that made the pain and spasms go away was
Spinal Decompression treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am still pain-free!

inders, keepers — the adage
which says that when something
is unowned or abandoned, who-
ever finds it can claim it —doesn’t apply
to pets. Well, not really. One typical sce-
nario at the shelter goes something like
this. A person finds a dog with no ID and
wants to keep the dog. We ask her to
come in and complete a “Found Animal”
card and have our staff scan the dog for a
microchip form of identification. If we
don’t detect a microchip and if the dog
doesn’t match any “Lost Animal” cards
on file, we let her leave with the dog that
day. We further explain she can consider
the dog hers if no one reports the dog
missing within 30 days. The 30-day peri-
od is the fuzzy part. It doesn’t appear to
be a law. But, it’s common practice in the
animal welfare world. It’s he time frame
every shelter uses in this situation and
one a judge may use in a court of law if
one person sues another for ownership.
We further explain to the finder that if an
owner comes forward — even after 30
days — we will get in touch and ask her
to let her moral compass guide her,
though we cannot make her give the dog
back. Some might consider this unfair to
the “new” owner. But, while the new
owner may become attached to a dog in
as little as 30 days, what about the origi-
nal owner who had loved and cared for
the pet for four, five ... possibly 13 years?
What if they never knew to complete a
Lost Dog card at their local shelter? The
second part of this scenario is very rare
— thankfully — but the first part hap-
pens regularly and we are truly grateful
for Good Samaritans who take in strays
and care for them with hopes, but no
guarantee that they will be able to keep
them.

Fright flick tops box office
By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — The fright flick “The
Last Exorcism” and the heist thriller “Takers”
were in a photo finish for the top spot at the
weekend box office, according to studio esti-
mates Sunday.
Lionsgate’s “The Last Exorcism” had a
thin lead with a $21.3 million debut, closely
followed by Sony’s “Takers” with a $21 mil-
lion opening. They were close enough that
rankings could change after final numbers are
released Monday.
After two weekends in the No. 1 spot,
Lionsgate’s action romp “The Expendables”
slipped to third place with $9.5 million, rais-
ing its total to $82 million.
Playing in narrower release, a 3-D special
edition of “Avatar” pulled in $4 million, lift-
ing the sci-fi sensation’s domestic total to
$753.8 million. The new version of the 20th
Century Fox blockbuster adds nine minutes
of footage.
Both “The Last Exorcism” and “Takers”
debuted well above studio expectations,
though the openings were modest compared
with most big summer debuts.
Overall revenues came in at $115 million,
down 8 percent compared with the same

civil grand jury report. tax money would be used else- year. Redwood General Tire and is past

RACE
Continued from page 1
didates, including Michael Stogner
and Frederick Graham, who intend
to capture all three seats with the
aim of ending the revenue the dis-
trict gets from property taxes, which
they claim would save taxpayers
more than $7 million a year.
The others in the race are Jerry
Shefren, Ruth West-Gorrin and
Alpio Barbara.
Hickey’s slate uses a 2002 San
Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
report to support his stance.
The civil grand jury reported that
the district’s continued receipt of
property taxes is inappropriate con-
sidering the district no longer owns
Sequoia Hospital.
District taxpayers should be made
aware that the 1946 measure author-
izing the tax assessment was for the
construction, maintenance and oper-
ation of a hospital but that the dis-
trict no longer owns, maintains, or
operates a hospital, according to the
Sequoia Hospital was sold in
1996 and is now managed by
Catholic Healthcare West.
The district now routinely grants
millions of dollars a year to the coun-
ty and to local nonprofit agencies
that provide health care. It received
$7.4 million in tax revenue for the
2009-10 fiscal budget and doled out
more than $8.3 million in grants last
year, including $2 million to the San
Mateo Medical Center. The district’s
total revenue last year was $18.2 mil-
lion, with $7 million of that coming
from Sequoia Hospital.
Hickey, Stogner and Graham are
ready to end the district’s objectives
and stop its philanthropic role in the
community with taxpayer money.
“It is time for the district to get
out of the philanthropy business,”
said Hickey, who expects to be the
top vote-getter in the Nov. 2 general
election and is seeking his third
term on the board. “I don’t expect
the other two to lose.”
But incumbent Faro said there
would be nothing gained by
Hickey’s plan.
“If we disbanded the district, the
where,” Faro said. “We put money
into the community to keep it
healthy and we even support county
services.”
Faro is the chair of the Sequoia
Hospital Board of Directors. He
also takes issue with the fact that
Hickey takes health care benefits as
a member of the healthcare district
Board of Directors.
“Hickey might want to dissolve
the district but he is not bashful
about taking $10,000 a year in
health benefits,” Faro said.
Hickey said he would be happy to
give up his health benefits and said
each district boardmember should
be paid $100 a meeting instead.
Hickey’s slate will not only have
to unseat an incumbent to gain con-
trol of the board but also get by
Shefren, West-Gorrin and Barbara.
Shefren served on the board pre-
viously, having won a two-year term
in 2000. He won the seat again in
2002 but did not serve the full term.
He is an obstetrician/gynecologist
who works at Stanford University
School of Medicine and served on
the district’s grants committee this
He was encouraged to run for the
seat after it became clear Horsley
was leaving the district. Shefren
believes preventative health care is
the best approach to keeping a com-
munity healthy and said the grants
the district offers up do just that.
West-Gorrin is the clinical servic-
es director at Mental Health
Association of San Mateo County, a
nonprofit that provides housing and
support services for people with
mental illness or those with
HIV/AIDS. The association
received a $20,000 grant from
Sequoia this year to support nursing
services at the Belmont Apartments,
a 24-unit apartment building for
people with mental illness.
West-Gorrin has served on the
district’s grants committee and has a
good understanding of the health
care needs in the southern part of
the county, she said.
“There are diminishing resources
and increasing needs. We must use
our resources efficiently,” said West-
Gorrin, who is running her first
campaign for elected office.
Barbara is one of the owners of
president of the Redwood City
Police Activities League.
He was the Redwood City PAL
citizen of the year in 2004, the 2007
volunteer of the year for the
California Police Activities League
and was named the National Police
Activities League volunteer of the
year in 2008.
He has helped raise more than
$500,000 over 10 years with the
PAL and has pledged to give
Redwood City youth a safe place to
be after school.
Barbara was instrumental in the
opening of the 15,000 square-foot
PAL Community Center in
Redwood City back in 2004.
“In today’s tumultuous budget
process and demands, health care
funding is in serious jeopardy. The
services funded by Sequoia
Healthcare District are more vital
than ever to assure the health needs
of our constituents are met. That
includes assisting seniors to lead
active and healthy lives and provid-
ing the local community college with
funding to promote the training of
nurses,” Barbara wrote in an e-mail.

Councilman Brandt Grotte has he did say it was time to reach out a environmental review process that alignment for the downtown corri-

HSR
Continued from page 1
open trench doesn’t seem to be
favored by high-speed rail,”
Matthews said. “When I hear there
isn’t enough money, that doesn’t
sound to good to me. They will have
to find the money.”
Matthews said the city’s position
is not based on what it “wants” to
have but rather what the city “has” to
have.
“There is not enough right of way
in downtown,” Matthews said.
In downtown, the corridor nar-
rows to 50 feet in some spots. The
authority will need 80 feet or more
of right of way to construct an aerial
viaduct.
represented the city in the Peninsula
Rail Program’s policymaker work-
ing group, comprised of elected offi-
cials from cities up and down the
Peninsula.
Grotte is optimistic the open
trench alternative is still on the table
for San Mateo. In the two alterna-
tives for the Peninsula that came out
Aug. 5, however, wording in the
documents had incorrectly stated
that San Mateo preferred an aerial
option and not a trenched solution.
Grotte corrected the authority and
now documents related to the alter-
natives going forward should reflect
the city’s desire to have a depressed
solution.
He also said there has been a mis-
perception with the public that San
Mateo has not been communicating
with its neighboring cities, although
little more to leaders in Belmont.
“My intention is to open up a con-
versation with Belmont to see what
they want,” Grotte said. “We’ve been
meeting with Burlingame and
Millbrae on a monthly basis to discuss
our commonalties and positions.”
Roelof van Ark, the rail authority’s
chief executive officer, sent a letter to
city councils on the Caltrain corridor
yesterday discussing the authority’s
recent application for additional fed-
eral funds from the FRA.
“It appears that some are con-
cerned that language in our Aug. 6
applications for fiscal year 2010/11
federal appropriations has pre-deter-
mined the outcome of our ongoing
environmental review process. I
want to state strongly that this is not
the case,” van Ark said in the letter.
“It is our combined state and federal
will be used to determine the ulti-
mate alignment selected for the
high-speed train’s path along the
Peninsula.”
So far, van Ark said, engineering
is 3 percent to 5 percent completed.
After the draft environmental
impact report comes out in
December, engineering will be 15
percent completed, allowing for a
more thorough evaluation of impacts
and benefits, van Ark said.
Councilman David Lim supports
high-speed rail for its potential eco-
nomic benefits and for being a mod-
ern solution for the state’s trans-
portation needs.
“I support high-speed rail but I
also support the city’s vision for the
corridor. That vision has not
changed since I joined the council.
We want to see an underground
dor,” Lim said.
Lim has been fielding lots of calls
from San Mateo residents concerned
about an aerial viaduct.
Councilman Robert Ross said the
application to the FRA that showed
only an aerial viaduct solution for
the city was “a little disconcerting.”
“It looks like they have already
ruled out the alternative,” Ross said.
“It has to be depressed, otherwise
there will be a small freeway run-
ning through downtown.”
Ross wants the city to be prepared
for when the draft EIR comes out in
December if an open trench is off
the table for San Mateo.
“We have to research our legal
options, although there may be
none. We must be prepared to nego-
tiate for the best solution,” Ross
said.
