County ofcials will meet the second time in as many weeks to discuss just how big a new jail should be and if there are any viable alternatives to reduce the number of beds. The Board of Supervisors met for several hours Sept. 13 with hopes of giving the planning team some direction, if not a full decision, but
new Supervisor Dave Pine asked for at least one more meeting before sending the state a letter-of-intent to apply for available construction funds. Pine, who joined the board in May, said he has not had ample opportunity to discuss the plan with his fellow supervisors as a whole and asked for input from those outside the law enforcement community. Board President Carole Groom
last week was calling a list of possible speakers, including those from health and housing, but said she doesnt want the workshop to Carole Groom become a freefor-all with no direction. Groom, who like Pine joined the
board mid-term, said she was willing to accommodate his request if the scheduling worked but that some of the legwork falls outside of public hearings. Im not looking for any sympathy, but theres a lot of studying to do. A lot of lugging home work and reading up and meeting with people if you want to do the job well, she said, adding that Pine always seems very well-prepared. Sheriff Greg Munks said he
respects that Pine wants to make an informed decision but hopes there is a limit to how much studying can be done. My point is weve been at this for some time and treading over the same ground, he said. Munks sees twin timelines at stake one for the county to tell the state it wants to apply for money by the state but also to give the
David Braunstein and Christine Wozniak must get by three other candidates to rejoin the Belmont City Council. One of the challengers is a current planning commissioner, another ran unsuccessfully for council two years ago and a third is seeking ofce for the rst time. The two incumbents were elected to the council in 2007 and are seeking second terms. They square off against Eric Reed, Michael McGuinness and Paul Brownlee. Brownlee, 58, has lived in Belmont since 1992 and is married with three children, the oldest a returning Iraq war veteran. He is an unemployed radio technician seeking ofce for the rst time. McGuinness, 43, ran for a council seat and lost in 2009, has lived in Belmont since 2004 and works for Microsoft. Reed, 43, is the current chair of the citys planning commission, works for Genentech and has lived in Belmont since 2002. All the candidates were invited to the Daily Journal ofce for an endorsement meeting Tuesday to discuss issues prevalent to the city and to state their cases as to why they should be elected to the council. McGuinness did not attend the meeting. The candidates weighed in on a variety of issues including the citys strained relationship with Notre Dame de Namur University; the dissolution of the Belmont-San Carlos Fire Department; economic development; high-speed rail; escalating pension costs and; regionalization and shared services among other issues.

President Barack Obama greets supporters at Moffett Field in Mountain View last night.
President Barack Obama charged Sunday that the GOP vision of government would fundamentally cripple America, as he tried out his newly combative message on the liberal West Coast. Aiming to renew the ardor of Democratic loyalists who have grown increasingly disenchanted with him, the president mixed frontal attacks on Republicans with words of encouragement intended to buck up the faithful as the 2012 campaign revs up. From the moment I took ofce what weve seen is a constant ideological pushback against any kind of sensible reforms that would make our economy work better and give people more opportunity, the president said at an intimate brunch fundraiser at the Medina, Wash., home of former Microsoft executive Jon Shirley.
Obama arrived at Moffett Field Sunday afternoon for a series of fundraising events and to attend a town hall meeting today at Mountain View-based LinkedIn. Air Force One landed at 5:53 p.m. and was greeted by San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed, Mountain View Mayor Jac Siegel and NASA Ames center director S.P. Worden, as well as around 70 other VIPs. Obama deplaned at 5:42 p.m., spent a few minutes shaking hands and signing autographs, and then left in a motorcade of about 20 vehicles. He was expected to attend two fundraisers last night, one at the Woodside home of Symantec Chairman of the Board John Thompson and one at the Atherton home of Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg.
County ofcials are set to sign off on a nal budget not that much different than that they tentatively approved in June but next month they are expected to get a greater look at the ongoing structural decit, how the state budget is trickling down to local coffers and what they must do from falling deeper into a financial hole. The fiscal year 20112012 budget coming before the Board of Supervisors is slightly increased in amount and positions. The recommended budged adopted June 23 was $1.7 billion David Boesch with 5,298 positions; the budget now up for consideration stands at $1.75 billion with 5,310. The county always adopts a tentative budget in June but tweaks the nal numbers in September after report-back items and the state budget are taken into consideration. The June budget, adopted after three days of departmental presentations, added back $1.71 million to spare from the chopping block several probation ofcers, a coastside public nurse and some health services for at-risk children. The newest incarnation is not far different in terms of programs and services, said County Manager David Boesch, who added in October the board will get a full brieng on the countys structural decit and ongoing

December 7, 1941
he population of the United States in 1941 was 121 million. The U.S. Army and Navy existed in a state of slow-motion after World War I. Very little innovation in tactics or purchasing of modern equipment for the soldiers had occurred. Leadership was lost in a time warp and initiative was discouraged as rank in a peace time army was frozen. For the average soldier, life was nothing but drill, drill, drill. A good overview of the state of the services was depicted in the popular and successful movie From Here to Eternity. A book by Gordon Prange, At Dawn We Slept The Untold Story of Pearl Harbor, indicates even less subtly what the United States was doing on Dec. 4, 1941. At 6 a.m., Dec. 7, a mini-Japanese submarine was sunk by depth charges in the entrance of Pearl Harbor. The sub rolled over and sank. The incident was reported to the command post but no further action was taken. At 7 a.m., a mobile RADAR unit on the west coast of Hawaii was operating. The operator suddenly noticed a number of what he thought were airplanes moving from the west to Hawaii. He alerted the command post that the planes appeared to be 40 miles to the north and moving fast toward the island. The ofcer in charge thought a couple of seconds and then told the operator to disregard the information as a number of B17s from San Diego

plans to keep it in check. The latest change is due to $47.7 million in nal adjustments and $5.1 million in September revisions. Of the adjustments, $29 million will be set aside in reserves and the remaining $18.7 million used for one-time needs, said Budget Director Jim Saco. The revisions include using $11 million in non-departmental state Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund reserves for information technology needs, employee relocation assistance, the newly acquired Circle Star properties, an upgrade to the board chambers and countywide information kiosks. Altogether, the changes mean an increase in net county costs of $414,034.

Teaching is a lot like acting thankfully Chris Saldivar has a background in theater. Students are like a daily audience. As a sixth grade science teacher at Ralston Middle School in Belmont, Saldivar has been performing locally for 21 years. From elementary school through college, Saldivar perChris Saldivar formed on stage with aspirations of acting in movies. In his mid 20s, Saldivar switched gears and landed in the local role hes had for 12 years. Saldivar kicked off the new school year with a new title Educator of the Year for the
Belmont-Redwood Shores Elementary School District. He was nominated for being an outstanding teacher, role model and individual; an award that he deserves for his work at Ralston Middle School and district-wide efforts, Superintendent Emerita Orta-Camilleri said during a welcome back opening for staff in August. Saldivar, a 48-year-old father of a 15-yearold boy, grew up in Southern California. Throughout his younger years, he had an agent and went to auditions. As most aspiring actors do, Saldivar auditioned for many roles, but got few. I got to go to a lot of movie studios and meet a lot of fun people, he said of that period of his life. Saldivar even studied theater at two junior colleges in Southern California before looking for something more serious to pay the bills. He began studying to be a physicians assistant, which didnt work out. With so many health requirements met, studying to become a health educator seemed like a t. Saldivar enrolled at San Francisco State University to earn the credentials needed. Along the way, he taught health education at a San Francisco middle school before starting work at Ralston. During
A weekly look at the people who shape our community his time in Belmont, Saldivar has taught health, which has morphed into some of the work he teaches in science. Hes also been active with AVID, advancement via individual determination, and yearbook. Saldivar thinks hes successful due to his own enthusiasm. This is my passion, so Im very enthusiastic. I teach a little louder than other teachers, so students have no choice but to listen. I move around the room and I think Im a little animated. I try to nd those things that will spark their interest, he said. Currently, his classes are learning about hurricanes. Chris Saldivar is a professional who goes above and beyond the traditional role of
teacher. He is kind, caring, enthusiastic, creative, hard working and dedicated, according to the nomination letter. Working above and beyond has included working with the District Wellness Committee, which helped make choices about how money related to drug-prevention programs was spent. Saldivar has been an advocate of programs that allow students to become leaders on campus and in the community. The Safe School Ambassador program, for example, works not only to allow children who are bullies or have been bullied to work together and grow but also offers opportunities for students to make positive change in school. Some of those students have made public service announcements against smoking in movies an announcement which can be seen by those who get to local movie theaters early. It goes back to creativity, he said. One of the things I love about my job is I get to be creative. Im not necessarily an artistic person, but I get to be creative. Im capable of doing that in this district.

Patient died during nurses strike
Authorities were investigating the death of a patient who was given a non-prescribed dosage of a medical drug by a replacement hired when thousands of nurses went on strike across California, an Oakland police spokeswoman said Sunday. Spokeswoman Johnna Watson did not release details of the incident at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center. The patient died Saturday, two days after the nurses walked out during the labor dispute on Thursday. Many were not allowed to return to work on Friday. Steve OBrien, a doctor and the hospitals vice president of medical affairs, said the death was likely caused by a medical error. The patient had been receiving treatment at the hospital since July. The lockout, and concerns about patient care provided by replacement nurses, prompted officials with the California Nurses Association to le a complaint with the state Department of Public Health, according to Charles Idelson, a spokesman for the union. We were concerned if the nurses they brought in during the lockout had the demonstrated competency and certications required by California law, Idelson said.

The Japanese were angry and had been for a number of years. The United States had instituted an oil embargo on Japan and restricted free trade with them. Since 1931, Japan had had designs on Manchuria and began enlarging their empire by engaging in a vicious war with Manchuria. The United States wanted Japan to cease action there and the Japanese ignored these messages. Japan was not to be dictated by what they believed to be a colonial power like the United States. They began planning to do something drastic to the United States for meddling in their affairs. At 7:40 a.m., 183 Japanese Zeros and Kates (bombers) began bombing Battleship Row in Pearl Harbor. The enemy had been practicing this maneuver for more than a year. Their torpedoes had been modied to stay near the surface of the 30-35 foot deep bay and each ship had been assigned to a crew of yers to torpedo. The rst battleship hit was the USS Utah. The second ship hit was the Helena, followed by the Oglala (a minesweeper). Within ve minutes, ries and machine guns began being used to shoot at the clearly marked Japanese airplanes, followed by ach-ach guns. At 8:05 a.m., the battleship Arizona was hit by an armor piercing bomb, followed by a second hit at 8:06 a.m. It sank in 11 minutes with 1,177 lives lost. Carnage was everywhere. Ships were sinking and the Japanese planes were having a turkey shoot. How had the airplanes gotten to Pearl Harbor? Simple for the Japanese. They achieved what the United States had thought was impossible, the Japanese had sailed undetected in six aircraft carriers for 10 days from Japan, across the Pacic in strict radio silence and less than 200 miles from Hawaii. In the rst 15 minutes of the rst wave attack, after arriving at Wheeler Air Base, the Japanese planes destroyed the U.S. air eet.

Often times patients are deficient in certain vitamins and minerals or can have a toxic buildup in their system which can be contributing to or may even be causing some of their pain. At Crossroads Health Center we will take an extensive history and perform any tests necessary to determine if a nutritional deficiency or toxicity may be present. Then an individualized nutritional program may be recommended to decrease pain and inflammation, speed up healing and improve overall health.

My doctor recommended surgery but surgery terrifies me. Too many unknowns and too many horror stories. How Pain Has Been Treated in the Past. Are Drugs and Shots the Answer? Until now, people have masked their pain by frequently taking prescription pain pills or by getting cortisone, epidural or steroid injections. This type of relief masks the cause, is temporary, and more often can lead to even more pain or worse yet, addiction to drugs. Many people innocently fall into abusing prescription pain pills while initially using them to alleviate pain. Do you know that prescription medications kill more people every year than illegal drugs do? How many stories have we heard in the news over the last year of people dying from abuse of prescription pills? With all the potential side effects are pain pills really the best long term solution to pain?

Mass grave found in Libya with remains of 1,270
TRIPOLI, Libya Libyan revolutionary authorities say they have discovered a mass grave containing the remains of 1,270 inmates killed by the regime of Moammar Gadha in a 1996 prison massacre. The site was found near Tripolis Abu Salim prison, where the victims were killed on June 26, 1996, after protesting conditions at the facility. The announcement was made Sunday by Dr. Ibrahim Abu Sahima of the government committee overseeing the search for victims of the former regime. He says investigators found the grave two weeks ago after getting information from captured regime ofcials and witnesses.

The sovereign nation of Lindsey Pakistan is Graham engaging in hostile acts against the United States and our ally Afghanistan that must cease, Sen. Lindsey Graham told Fox News Sunday. He said if experts decided that the U.S. needs to elevate its response, he was condent there would be strong bipartisan support in Congress for such action. Graham did not call for military action but said all options should be considered. He said assistance to Pakistan should be recongured and that the U.S. should no longer designate an amount of aid for Pakistan but have a more transactional relationship with the country. Theyre killing American soldiers, he said. If they continue to embrace terrorism as a part of their national strategy, were going to have to put all options on the table, including defending our troops.

known as the Arab Spring. We have told the world that there is the Arab Spring, but the Palestinian Spring is here, he said. A popular spring, a populist spring, a spring of peaceful struggle that will reach its goal. He cautioned that the Palestinians face a long path ahead. There are those who would put out obstacles ... but with your presence they will fall and we will reach our end, he said. The dynamic public appearance was a noticeable change for the 76year-old Abbas, who was elected shortly after Arafats death seven years ago. While Arafat was known for his trademark olive-green military garb and ery speeches, Abbas favors suits and typically drones on in monotone.
NEW YORK Declaring that they were detained because of their nationality, not their actions, two American hikers held for more than two years in an Iranian prison came home Sunday, ending a diplomatic and personal ordeal with a sharp rebuke of the country that accused them of crossing the border from Iraq. Joshua Fattal and Shane Bauer, both 29, were freed last week under a $1 million bail deal and arrived Wednesday in Oman, greeted by relatives and fellow hiker Sarah

Fattal
Shourd, who was released last year. Their saga began in July 2009 with what they called a wrong turn
into the wrong country. The three say they were hiking together in Iraqs relatively peaceful Kurdish region along the Iran-Iraq border when Iranian guards detained them. They always maintained their innocence, saying they might have accidentally wandered into Iran. The two men were convicted of spying last month. Shourd, whom Bauer proposed marriage to while they were imprisoned, was charged but freed before any trial. The men took turns reading statements at a news conference Sunday in New York, surrounded by relatives and with Shourd at their side.
WASHINGTON The Obama administration is considering a military trial in the United States for a Hezbollah commander now detained in Iraq, U.S. counterterrorism ofcials said, previewing a potential prosecution strategy that has failed before but may offer a solution to a difcult legal problem for the government. While the U.S. hasnt made a decision, ofcials said a tribunal at a U.S. military base
may be the best way to deal with Ali Mussa Daqduq, who was captured in Iraq in 2007. He has been linked to the Iranian government and a brazen raid in which four American soldiers were abducted and killed in the Iraqi holy city of Karbala in 2007. No military commission has been held on U.S. soil since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. President George W. Bush tried holding a few suspected terrorists at military bases inside the U.S., but each detainee ultimately was released or transferred to civilian courts.

including a deep embarrassment for the Obama administration, which has close ties to another major investor in the company, George Kaiser, an Oklahoma billionaire who gave lavishly to Obama in 2008. But it is not cause for the U.S. government to abandon its green energy incentives and let others seize ever-more market share in one of the worlds few growing industries. If green energy is nothing more than a fervent religion, then China, Germany and a whole lot of other countries have it, too. And Solyndras failure wont deter the China Development Bank, which is busily picking winners and losers, offering more than $30 billion in financing to Chinese solar manufacturers. Nor will it dissuade the German government,
f hyperbole could turn a turbine, the lights of Washington would be burning bright. Republicans are spinning the collapse of the solar manufacturer Solyndra, the Obama administration darling that churned through a $535 million federal loan, into an attack on all of green energy. Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., and chairman of a House Energy subcommittee looking into Solyndras failure, claimed its downfall is an indictment of the fervent religion of green jobs and proves that green energy isnt going to be the solution. Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., chimed in: I question whether the government is qualified to act as a venture capitalist, picking winners and losers in speculative ventures. Solyndra may be a lot of things,
which is putting its weight and its euros squarely behind a strong greenenergy economy. Of course, Solyndra is a failure, a costly one to American taxpayers. But its an isolated failure, something youd never know from the overheated political reaction. The federal Energy Departments loan guarantee program, which was created in 2005 with bipartisan support, has backed almost $38 billion in loans for 40 projects around the country. Some are solar projects, some wind. But the largest by far is an $8.8 billion loan for a nuclear plant in Georgia. So far, only one project Solyndra has failed. The last thing a nation desperate for jobs, one home to entrepreneurs and inventors fighting as hard as they can to compete in the global energy sector, needs is for the U.S. government to suddenly and stupidly give up on green energy.
Confidence in government

heres a lot more to this country than politics, and Americans belief in themselves and their government is not on the wane. That conclusion might be drawn from the results of a recently released Associated Press-National Constitution Center poll. The poll of 1,000 adults conducted Aug. 18-22 found that 63 percent believe the U.S. government is doing a good job of making sure we feel safe, secure and free. That is up 9

percentage points from a year ago. Even more 72 percent approve of the governments performance in addressing both foreign and domestic threats. Only 53 percent believed so in 2010. That statement of confidence in the nations capacity to protect us is in sharp contrast to the majority of poll respondents who expressed little or no confidence in the ability of politicians to effectively address serious issues such as health care and gov-
ernment spending. In other words, we still have a lot of faith in the military and other government workers to look after the countrys best interests despite cynicism toward our elected leaders and their motives. And we still believe in our own ability to help, with 70 percent of those polled saying they volunteer in order to try and make things better for their fellow Americans. Americans can-do spirit is far from defeated.
he bilateral relationship between Pakistan and the United States is a fraught one it waxes and wanes and is characterized by mutual suspicion and not a little hostility. In recent years, the warmth has almost totally disappeared though both realize that they need each other. That the U.S. does not trust the Pakistani establishment was clear from the Obama administrations decision to go it alone in the operation to kill Osama bin Laden. Now the U.S. side has fired another salvo, and a deadly one at that. U.S. Ambassador to Islamabad Cameron Munter has bluntly said there is evidence to link the dreaded Haqqani network with the Pakistan govern-

ment, and that this must stop. Rarely have American officials been so forthright, though veiled references to the deep connections between Army and intelligence officials and terrorist groups have been made in the past. It is not at all surprising that the U.S. is angry and frustrated at what it sees as Pakistani duplicity. In the post 9/11 world, America is in no mood to ignore such a double game. Earlier, successive U.S. governments had ignored reports of terrorists operating from Pakistani soil and endorsed by powerful local elements. No longer. U.S. Defense secretary
Leon Panetta has already warned, in the aftermath of the attack on the U.S. embassy in Kabul, that his government will go after insurgents wherever they may be. And now President Barack Obamas refusal to meet Pakistan Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani during the latters coming United Nations visit must also be seen in that light. ... It is now certain that U.S. pressure on Pakistan will increase. With its recent success in killing Bin Laden, the U.S. feels its strategy of going it alone will yield results. As for Pakistan, its government and its military services may chafe but are in no position to stand up to the U.S., not if they want to keep getting their arms and weaponry.

NEW YORK Someone is about to play the fool Wall Street analysts or investors. For months, analysts who write reports praising or panning stocks have been saying they were cheap. Investors were unconvinced, buying one day, selling the next. Last week, they mostly sold, and stocks got cheaper yet. The Dow Jones industrial average rose slightly Friday but closed the week down 6.4 percent, its worst showing since the depths of the nancial crisis three years ago. In the broader Standard & Poors 500, the selling pushed down all variety of stocks sexy high techs and staid utilities, risky small companies and cashrich big ones. Stock prices compared to expected prots are now nearly as low as they were in March 2009, a 12-year nadir that marked the beginning of one of the greatest bull markets in history. Have investors sold too much, as they did back then? Id be buying the market, says Citigroups chief U.S. strategist Tobias
Levkovitch, who warned that prices were too high in the spring. Says Harris Private Banks Jack Ablin, who sold $6 billion or so of stock in August, Were sharpening our pencils to gure out when to get back in. Whos right or whos about to play the fool may turn on earnings, or rather, analysts estimates of how fast they will grow. Recently, theyve been cutting them for companies in the S&P 500 as fears of another recession spread. But theyre still predicting they will earn 13 percent more earnings in the three months through September than they did in the same period a year ago, according to data provider FactSet. That would mark the eighth straight quarter of double-digit gains. And for the full year, analysts say earnings will hit a record. You can throw toss (those estimates) in the garbage, says Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at brokerage Miller Tabak & Co. Will Greece go bankrupt? What will be the extent of the global economic slowdown? I cant get that out of an analyst report. If history is any guide, more cuts from analysts are coming.
One ominous sign: Those who changed their estimates this month chose to cut them more than six out 10 times, according to Citigroup. Early last month, raised estimates outnumbered lowered ones by nearly the same ratio. Analysts are easy to bash. They usually tend to far too optimistic, cheering on stocks long after theyve headed down. Now they want us to believe that companies can continue making record prots in the face of falling housing prices, tightsted consumers, sputtering U.S. growth and a European debt crisis that is pushing a crucial market for U.S. exports closer to recession. But its worth remembering that its been the naysayers, the investors, and not the optimistic analysts, whove mostly been wrong lately. At the start of the bull market, investors worried that companies couldnt generate enough prots in such an anemic economy. Then companies cut expenses to the bone, and prots soared. Investors next worried that companies wouldnt be able to sell more, and that prots were bound to fall. And then companies defied expectations again with higher revenue, much of it overseas.
NEW YORK Soaring gasoline prices are in the rearview mirror. For the rst time in months, retail gasoline prices have fallen below $3 a gallon in places, including parts of Michigan, Missouri and Texas. And the relief is likely to spread thanks to a sharp decline in crude-oil prices. The national average for regular unleaded gasoline is $3.51 per gallon, down from a high of $3.98 in early May. Last weeks plunge in oil prices could push the average to $3.25 per gallon by November, analysts say. Economist Philip Verleger equates it
to a stimulus program for consumers, leaving them more money for clothes, dinners out and movies. Over a year, a 50 cents-per-gallon drop in gasoline prices would add roughly $70 billion to the U.S. economy. Arthur De Villar, a 48-year-old safety inspector for the Federal Aviation Administration, paid $2.96 for gasoline near his home in Manchester, Mo., a suburb of St. Louis and he recently replaced his SUV with a four-door sedan. With three boys at home between the ages of 11 and 14, the money De Villar saves on gas still gets spent. But it goes to the amusement park, a Cardinals baseball game or the movie theater. Its far better to be able to put (the
money) anywhere other than in the gas tank, he says. Prices for oil, gasoline and other commodities dove last week along with world stock markets over concerns the global economy is headed for another recession. When economies slow, demand for gasoline, diesel and jet fuel falls as drivers cut back on trips, shippers move fewer goods and vacationers stay closer to home. Oil fell to $79.85 per barrel Friday, a drop of 9 percent for the week. Oil reached a three-year high of $113.93 on April 29. Economists caution that gasoline savings, while welcome, wont matter much to people if the worst economic fears come to pass.
ALBANY, N.Y. The OnStar automobile communication service used by 6 million Americans maintains its two-way connection with a customer even after the service is discontinued, while reserving the right to sell data from that connection. U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer of New York says thats a blatant invasion of privacy and is calling on the Federal Trade Commission to investigate. But OnStar says former customers can stop the two-way transmission, and no driving data of customers has been shared or sold. OnStar is attempting one of the most brazen invasions of privacy in recent memory, said Schumer, a Democrat. I urge OnStar to abandon. But the General Motors Corp. OnStar service says customers are thoroughly informed of the new practice. If a customer says he or she doesnt want to have data collected after service is ended, OnStar disconnects the tracking. And although OnStar reserves the right to share or sell data on customers speed, location, use of seat belts and other practices, a spokesman says it hasnt done so and doesnt plan to. We apologize for creating any confusion about our terms and conditions, said Joanne Finnor, vice president of subscriber services. We want to make sure we are as clear with our customers as possible, but its apparent that we have failed to do this. ... We will continue to be open to their suggestions and concerns. A week ago, OnStar changed its policy and began continuing the connection for ex-customers unless they asked for it to be discontinued. Finnor noted keeping the two-communication active for former customers could someday allow for emergency messages to be sent even to ex-customers about severe weather or evacuations. The open line could also allow OnStar to alert drivers about warranty information or recalls, she said.

CINCINNATI One game into their weeklong trip, the San Francisco 49ers already have a very nice gift to take home and put on the shelf. And theyve left room in the suitcase for one more. Kendall Hunter ran 7 yards for the games only touchdown with 3:59 to go Sunday, rallying the 49ers to a 13-8 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals that began their extended
stay in the Buckeye State on an upbeat note. The 49ers (2-1) havent had many wins on East Coast time lately, and it looked like theyd forgotten to pack their West Coast offense. San Francisco didnt even cross mideld for the first time until midway through the third quarter. Trailing 6-3, the 49ers put together their only drive of the game for the winning score, stunning the smallest crowd for a Bengals home opener in 30 years. Now, theres something to write
home about. To become that type of team that wins on the road and take that next step, you have to win like this, said Alex Smith, who was 4 of 5 for 48 yards on the winning drive. I think guys were frustrated, but in a good way. They were frustrated and red up. They wanted the ball back. That was different. A lot of times, Ive been on teams where its kind of, Here we go again, and this is a lot different. It was a satisfying start to the 49ers visit to Ohio. Theyll practice
at Youngstown State the next few days, then head to Philadelphia for their next game. What do they think so far? Its a lot different over here, Hunter said. Sure is. In a lot of ways. There were only 43,363 fans at 65,500-seat Paul Brown Stadium, the Bengals smallest crowd for a home opener since they played at Riverfront Stadium in 1981. Cincinnati (1-2) was limited to a pair of eld goals by Mike Nugent during rookie quarterback Andy
Daltons rst dismal performance. He threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter, the rst of his career. The 49ers sent that small crowd heading for the exits when Reggie Smith intercepted Daltons throw with 1:45 left. We started fast, which is what you come out to do, said Dalton, who led the Bengals to an opening eld goal. We were at after that. We couldnt do the things we wanted to do.
CSM wins by 83
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A day after inducting 16 legends into their inaugural Hall of Fame class, the College of San Mateo took the football eld and did something no Bulldog team has done in the 90-year history of the college. CSM defeated West Valley College 83-0. And no, that isn't a misprint. The Bulldogs racked up 515 yards of total offense and scored 12 touchdowns (three defensive) en route to setting a new school record for most points scored in a single game. The old record was 77, set last year against West Valley. They were led by the rushing efforts of Jarrell Brown, a former Hillsdale Knight, who ran the ball for 106 yards on 11 carries and tied the school record for most touchdowns by a player in single game with four. It's a record shared by six other Bulldogs. I just want to keep working hard, Brown said of the record. I had no idea at all. I'm so humbled, to be honest. I'm almost lost for words. To be here with the people that were inducted into the Hall of Fame, our coach told us to come out and play hard for them, so this one goes out to them. We want to show them that the program keeps on coming and they can expect more of these wins at CSM. The Bulldogs were beyond dominant Saturday afternoon, with the Vikings putting up very little opposition. A brief look at the game statistics shows a game that was beyond a laugher and more like a head-scratcher. For the game, the Bulldogs scored 12 touchdowns. By contrast, the Vikings had 11 rst downs. At the end of the rst half, CSM led 55-0. By contrast, West Valley had 54 total yards in the same half. Point No. 83 came in the fourth quarter of

PHOENIX Winning 10 games may seem like a modest goal for a pitcher. Not one who didnt make his rst career start until May. Josh Collmenter pitched seven strong innings and Miguel Montero had two RBIs to help the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the San Francisco Giants 5-2 on Sunday for a threegame sweep. Collmenter (10-10) allowed ve hits and two runs for his second win against the Giants this season. Collmenter struck out four and
walked one. Its been one heck of a ride this year, Collmenter said. Collmenter made one start with Triple-A Reno and seven appearances out of the bullpen before making his rst start on May 14 at Los Angeles. Hes had both highs a 12-inning scoreless streak to begin his career as a starter and lows a four-game midseason losing streak while relying primarily on just two pitches, a fastball and a changeup. I worked on that third pitch (a curveball) to
make it a weapon all the time, Collmenter said. Aaron Hill and Colin Cowgill also had runscoring hits for the Diamondbacks, who have won six of seven heading into a season-ending series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Though Arizona has clinched the NL West title, the Diamondbacks remain a game behind Milwaukee in an attempt to gain home-eld advantage in the rst round of the playoffs. Our intentions are to win out,
OAKLAND Darren McFadden bullied the New York Jets on the ground and Oakland Raiders bloodied Mark Sanchez in a most satisfying victory in their home opener. McFadden ran for 171 yards and two touchdowns as part of the most productive rushing day against New York since Rex Ryan took over as coach in 2009 to lead the Raiders to a 34-24 victory Sunday. Denarius Moore scored on a 23-yard reverse and Michael Bush added a 1-yard TD run 42 seconds later as the Raiders (2-1) took control in a dizzying span beginning late in the third quarter to hand the Jets (2-1) their rst loss. Mark Sanchez had a much rougher second trip to Oakland in his career, getting bloodied on one of Oaklands four second-half sacks and needing a visor to protect a cut on his face. It was a far different end than his game here two years ago, when he memorably was eating a hot dog on the sideline in the closing minutes of a 38-0 victory that was the most lopsided home loss in Raiders history. Sanchez completed 27 of 43 passes for a career-high 369 yards, cutting Oaklands lead to 31-24 with a 16-yard pass to Plaxico Burress with 5:33 remaining. He also ran for one touchdown and had a second overturned by replay in the nal minute, ending New Yorks last gasp. But a week after blowing a game defensively in the second half in Buffalo, the Raiders never gave New York a chance at a comeback. Campbell scrambled 10 yards for a rst down and found Bush for a 28-yard gain after buying time with his feet to set up Sebastian Janikowskis 49-yard eld goal with 2:32 left to ice it. Campbell was 18 for 27 for 156 yards, but the Raiders won this game on the ground, putting up the most yards rushing (234) and the third-most points in a game against the Ryanled Jets. After Chimdi Chekwa broke up a fourthdown pass to Plaxico Burress, Oakland used some trickery to go 63 yards in four plays to take a 24-17 lead in the nal minute of the third quarter. The rst deception came on a halfback option to McFadden. He wanted to throw back to Campbell, but that was covered

the ball game. At that point, there was still 11:45 left in the game. CSM scored those 12 touchdowns on only 52 plays some of which involved several kneel downs deep in West Valley territory with the Bulldogs trying to run time off the clock. The guys played hard, they played with emotion, said CSM head coach Bret Pollack. It gave us a chance to get some of the second and third string guys out there and get some valuable game experience. Even with the scoreboard as lopsided as it was, and plenty of offensive reworks, the game wasn't very exciting because for all intents in purposes it was over with less than six minutes having elapsed. It was then than Vaughn Smith barreled through the center of the offensive line and sprinted his way from 46 yards out for a touchdown. Kenny

ANAHEIM The Oakland Athletics sent the Los Angeles Angels to a defeat that may last with them and closer Jordan Walden for a long time. Josh Willingam homered to start a ninth-inning rally, and Walden threw away a potential game-ending double-play grounder as the As came back for a 6-5 victory Sunday. We were down three runs, and we battled back, Willingham said. They gave us a couple of things, and we took advantage of it. Trying to get a four-out save, Walden gave up Willinghams 28th homer, and Scott Sizemore and Chris Carter singled with one out. Walden (5-4) then threw Adam Rosales comebacker past shortstop Erick Aybar and into center eld as Sizemore scored. I knew I was working with Aybar, Walden said. But the ball
was hit back to me so hard and so quick, I hesitated for a second and the ball just sailed on me. Kurt Suzuki then sliced an opposite-field Josh double to right Willingham on a 1-2 pitch, delivering the tying run, and Coco Crisp put the As ahead with his second sacrice y of the game. I blew one by Suzuki and then threw another one that was better, but he just stuck his bat out there and it went down the line, Walden said. I let the team down. We battled all day and I lost the game for us. Its tough. Im really disappointed in myself. I feel like if I take it home with me, I might stay awake until 6 in the morning and not get any sleep.
It was Waldens 10th blown save in 42 chances. Fautino De Los Santos (3-2) got the victory despite giving up a tworun single to Peter Bourjos in the eighth. Andrew Bailey got three outs for his 23rd save in 25 attempts. We had a couple of great at-bats, like Kurt Suzuki on that ball to right eld in a key situation, and then that ground ball up the middle that could have ended the game gave us a chance, Willingham said. The As won the season series 118, their best record against the Angels since going 12-8 in 2003. The loss left Los Angeles 2 1-2 games behind Boston and two games back of Tampa Bay in the AL wild-card race with three games left. It hurts to lose a game like that, right elder Torii Hunter said. We got insurance runs in the bottom of the eighth and just couldnt close it
out. There were some mistakes there and they capitalized on them. When youve got a chance to get that wild card, you just cant make mistakes defensively for sure. So this game really hurts, trust me. Weve got an uphill battle but at the same time, weve still got life left and were still breathing. Joel Pineiro made his nal start of the season for the Angels on his 33rd birthday, allowing three hits over 6 1-3 scoreless innings and retiring his rst 13 batters. He took a one-hitter and a 3-0 lead into the seventh, then watched the collapse on television in the clubhouse. Oaklands Rich Harden allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings and nished his season with a 5.12 ERA. Bobby Abreus RBI single in the rst and third-inning homer built a two-run lead, and Vernon Wells 25th homer made it 3-0 in the fth. Jemile Weeks RBI single and
Crisps rst sacrice y cut the gap to 3-2 in the eighth the latter driving in the first run against Downs at home in 28 appearances this season. NOTES: The Athletics are 5-71 when trailing after eight innings, and the Angels are 72-6 when leading after eight. ... DeJesus robbed Kendrick of extra bases in the fth, making a backhanded grab of his drive toward the corner and colliding with the short padded fence. He bruised his left hip on the play, but played one more inning before leaving the game. ... Abreu batted .237 against Oakland this season with one home run. Last season, he hit .328 against the As with six homers. ... Harden was 0-4 with a 6.75 ERA in seven starts against AL West teams this year, and 4-0 with a 3.86 ERA in eight starts against other clubs. ... Oakland concludes its season with a three-game series at Seattle.
SAN DIEGO One Triple Crown down, one to go. Clayton Kershaw all but clinched the NL pitching Triple Crown with his 21st victory but Matt Kemp suffered a major setback in his attempt to become the majors rst Triple Crown winner in 44 seasons following the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-2 win over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. Kershaws dominant performance helped bolster Dodgers claims that the left-hander deserves the NL Cy Young Award. Kershaw (21-5) carried a two-hitter into the eighth inning as he tied Arizonas Ian Kennedy for the NL lead in wins. He also leads the league in strikeouts (248) and ERA (2.28). Right now, Im just done, Kershaw said. Im already kind of mentally shutting it down. Its been an awesome year. I dont like to look at personal stuff too often. But right now, this is the time that I can start looking back a little bit. I had a lot of
fun this year. Kemp, who was just 3 for 13 in the three-game series, fell nine points behind Milwaukees Ryan Braun in the batting race. After starting the day six points back, Kemp went 1 for 5 as his average fell to .324. Braun was 2 for 3 and raised his average to .333, while New Yorks Jose Reyes was at .331 after a 2-for-4 game. Kemp is tied with Albert Pujols of St. Louis in home runs (37) and leads the league with 120 RBIs. He has three games left in Arizona starting on Monday to catch Braun. Thats a big number to be behind with (three) games left, Los Angeles manager Don Mattingly said. You need one guy to kind of collapse and other guy to catch re. Hes going to need a 5-for-5 day. Neither Kershaw or Kennedy are scheduled to pitch in the nal three games of the regular season. Those two pitchers along with Philadelphias Roy Halladay are the three mentioned most often in the Cy Young discussion.
NEW YORK A.J. Burnett has made things difcult for his manager all season. This time, he was happy to do it. Burnett had his most impressive start in three months and Jorge Posada hit a two-run homer, leading the New York Yankees to a 6-2 victory over the bumbling Boston Red Sox in the opener of Sundays splitdoubleheader. I just wanted to come out and give him a headache. Ive given him headaches all year, Burnett said. Why not give him a good headache? Burnett (11-11) allowed ve hits three to Jacoby Ellsbury, including two homers in 7 2-3 innings, his rst outing of more than six innings since he went eight on July 29. He was 0-4 in his 10 previous starts against Boston but was in control throughout this one. I thought his command got better and better and he just kept making
good pitches, manager Joe Girardi said. Im very pleased with his outing, very pleased with the job he did. Booed relentlessly nearly all season, the tattooed right-hander left to a loud ovation in the eighth. After receiving a high-ve from his catcher and a pat on the back from Girardi, Burnett thrust his right arm in the air in acknowledgment of the cheers. With an ERA that swelled to 5.28 coming in second-worst behind Brad Penny among qualifying starters Burnett seemed out of the competition for a playoff start. Was this outing enough to change that? Were going to continue to look at it and talk about it, Girardi said. And our opponent has something to do with who were going to pitch. Bostons AL wild-card lead was cut to a half-game over Tampa Bay, which beat Toronto 5-2. What was a runaway nine-game advantage heading into play on Sept 4 would be completely gone by the end of
Sunday if the Yankees swept. The Red Sox have lost four straight and at 5-18 (.217) are on track for their worst September since going 4-18 (.182) in 1926, according to STATS LLC. Tim Wakeeld (7-8) dropped to 1-5 in his last 10 starts. When it doesnt go right its my responsibility, Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. Derek Jeter had three hits to lift his average to .300 at the end of a game for the rst time since April 2. Starting with July 9, the day he reached 3,000 hits, he is batting .346 following a .257 start. Im not playing for a batting average, Jeter said. Im playing to try to stay sharp for the playoffs. New York improved to 6-1 on its final regular-season homestand. Having secured home-eld advantage throughout the AL playoffs, the Yankees will open the division series at home on Friday night. Sloppy in the eld again, the Red Sox fell behind early for the second straight day.

The Diamondbacks took a 2-0 lead against Lincecum in the first. Hill drew a one-out walk and went to second when Upton was hit in the helmet. Both scored when Montero followed with a double into the right-center field gap. Weve had good luck when guys hit J-Up this year, Gibson said. Fortunately he hasnt been seriously injured, but weve done well in those situations. Lincecum said the pitch to Upton affected his original game plan. I was kind of afraid to go in for fear that kind of stuff would happen again, said Lincecum, who approached the plate to check on Upton and also sent a message to the right fielder. I had one of the players send a message over there saying that it was a complete accident and I had no intention of doing that. I just kind of lost it. I was trying to go low and away and it was the complete opposite. Paul Goldschmidt led off the fourth with a double to right and Cowgill made it 3-0 with a one-out double to right field. Hill drove in Gerardo Parra on a groundrule double in the fifth and scored on a ground out for a 5-0 lead. Lincecum allowed five runs and eight hits with two walks and three strikeouts. On the road, you want to keep it close and try to steal it late. The late drive did it. Smith was under constant pressure and finished 20 of 30 overall for 201 yards and five sacks. The 49ers blunted drives with penalties, and Kevin Hubers punts pinned them at their 10, 11, 12, 14 and 17, leaving too much ground for one of the NFLs least-productive offenses to cover. Also, the 49ers were missing receiver Braylon Edwards, who hurt his right knee during an overtime loss to Dallas last Sunday. The 49ers pulled a play from deep in their book to set up the go-ahead touchdown. Smith faked a handoff and rolled to his right, then turned and threw back to his left, where

Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said. We may. We may not. But wherever we have to go on Saturday, thats fine. Its good times. Its fun. J.J. Putz pitched the ninth for his 45th save. Diamondbacks right fielder Justin Upton was hit on the front of the helmet by Giants starter Tim Lincecum (13-14) in the first. He initially remained in the game and scored Arizonas second run, but left after the inning for precautionary reasons. Neurological tests on Upton were negative and he is listed day to day. If youre going to get hit in the dome thats probably the best place, Putz said. Carlos Beltran and Andres Torres homered in the sixth for the Giants, who have lost five of six including four straight. It was embarrassing, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Matt (Cain) threw a great game (Friday) and it could have gone either way. But the last two, we were ugly. There is no getting around it. That is not the way we want to finish up.

so he ran 27 yards instead, faking a pass about 8 yards down the eld. On the next play, Moore took a reverse that the Jets appeared to have stopped. But Moore cut upeld to elude David Harris and Samson Satele attened Jim Leonhard with a block, springing Moore for the touchdown that made it 24-17. After coach Hue Jackson urged on the rare sellout crowd on the ensuing kickoff, Antonio Cromartie mishandled the short kick and Taiwan Jones recovered the fumble at the 13. Bush scored from 1 yard out two plays later to make it 31-17 one play into the fourth quarter. The Raiders showed no hangover from last weeks second-half collapse against Buffalo. They took just ve plays to drive 76 yards for the opening score against the Jets, with tight end Kevin Boss making a 28-yard catch in his Oakland debut to set up McFaddens 2-yard run. The Jets responded with the next 17 points as Sanchez took advantage of a secondary missing injured starting cornerback Chris Johnson (groin) and safety Michael Huff (head) and Tomlinson once again bewildered tight end Vernon Davis was open for a 20yard catch-and-run that put San Francisco in position to win it. I had the call on and I saw they were bringing pressure, so I really tried to sell the fake, Smith said. He made a great play with the ball in his hands. The Bengals were at full strength after deciding to let receiver Jerome Simpson play. He missed two days of practice because hes the focus of an investigation into a drug shipment to his home. He got into the game on the opening series and finished with one catch for 6 yards. Coach Marvin Lewis decided a couple hours before the game to let Simpson play. Dalton had passer ratings above 100 in his first two starts, but repeatedly forced throws

the Raiders. Tomlinson broke a tackle from Rolando McClain and took a short pass 74 yards down to the 1 to set up Sanchezs 1-yard TD run. Tomlinson then beat linebacker Quentin Groves on a slant for an 18-yard score that made it 14-7. That was Tomlinsons 160th career touchdown, including 26 against the Raiders, joining Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith in that exclusive club. The Jets led by 10 before McFadden bolted around left end for a 70-yard run that doubled the longest against them since 1998. Campbell then completed six short passes in a 2-minute drill to set up a 54-yard eld goal by Janikowski on the nal play of the half to tie it at 17. against the 49ers defense. He went 17 of 32 for 157 yards and a rating of 40.8. Notes: Bengals RB Cedric Benson carried 17 times for 64 yards, extending the 49ers streak of stopping the run. They came in with the leagues top run defense, allowing 54.5 yards per game. They havent allowed a 100yard rusher in the last 25 games. ... Akers made field goals of 23 and 53 yards, giving him 301 in his career. ... San Francisco has an 11-3 edge in the series, including two Super Bowl wins. ... The smallest crowd in Paul Brown Stadiums 12-year history was 42,092 for a 29-15 loss to Jacksonville on Dec. 15, 2002. The Bengals went 2-14 that season. ... The Bengals are 2 of 21 on third downs in the last two games.

David Akers kicked two field goals for San Francisco, including a 53-yarder after Daltons first interception, pushing the lead to 13-6. After Smith intercepted Dalton again with 1:45 to go, punter Andy Lee ran out of the end zone for a safety to finish it with 2 seconds left. Those last few minutes by the 49ers decided an ugly game overall: 12 punts, two field goals combined through three quarters. It hasnt been like this in here for a long time, cornerback Shawntae Spencer said.

PHILADELPHIA With Michael Vick knocked out of another game, Eli Manning and the New York Giants wouldnt let the Philadelphia Eagles nish off their comeback. Manning threw four touchdown passes, including two to Victor Cruz, and the Giants beat the Eagles 29-16 Sunday. Vick started despite suffering a concussion in last weeks 35-31 loss at Atlanta. He left with a broken right hand in the fourth quarter after helping the Eagles overcome a 14-0 rstquarter decit to take a 16-14 lead. Its uncertain how long Vick will be out. Without their Pro Bowl quarterback, the Eagles (1-2) hardly look like the Dream Team that entered the season with Super Bowl or bust expectations. The Giants (2-1) have won two in a row and snapped a sixgame losing streak against their division rivals.
touchdowns to Jermichael Finley, and Green Bay shut down Jay Cutler. The stakes werent as high as the previous meeting, when the Packers left Soldier Field celebrating the NFC title on the way to the championship. Even so, they gave the Bears (1-2) more headaches. Rodgers led the charge, completing 28 of 38 passes. He threw his rst interception of the season, when Brian Urlacher picked him off with the Packers (3-0) leading 27-17 in the fourth quarter.
The Titans (2-1) lost Kenny Britt, the AFCs leading receiver, when his right knee buckled in the second quarter. Hasselbeck turned to others, including Graham, whose rst catch of the season came against his former team. Hasselbeck threw for 311 yards and two TDs.
Saints 40,Texans 33
NEW ORLEANS Drew Brees passed for 370 yards and three touchdowns, and twice led New Orleans back from fourth-quarter decits. Mark Ingrams rst career touchdown on a 13-yard run gave the Saints (2-1) the lead for good with under 3 minutes left. Brees was intercepted twice, but redeemed himself with all of his TD passes in the second half, including a 27-yarder to tight end Jimmy Graham and a 16-yarder to Lance Moore. Matt Schaub passed for 373 yards and three TDs of his own, and the Texans prolic offense moved the ball well for most of the game. Houston (2-1) was doomed in the end by four drives inside the 20 that resulted in only eld goals.

INDIANAPOLIS Pittsburghs defense and Ben Roethlisbergers late-game mastery did it again. James Harrisons late sack of Curtis Painter and Troy Polamalus 16-yard fumble return for a touchdown nally gave the Steelers a second-half lead. Roethlisberger set up Shaun Suisham for a 38-yard eld goal with 4 seconds left to give Pittsburgh a 23-20 victory at Indianapolis on Sunday night. It looked nothing like the Steelers trademark pattern until the closing minutes. Roethlisberger turned over the ball three times during an 11-minute span in the rst half, Pittsburgh (21) rushed for only 67 yards and the vaunted Steelers defense produced only one sack the one Polamalu scored on. But Roethlisberger took the Steelers on a 60-yard scoring march

that ended with Suishams kick. Roethlisberger was 25 of 37 for 364 yards with one touchdown. Mike Wallace caught ve passes for 144 yards and an 81-yard score, the longest of his career. But the feisty Colts (0-3) rallied from a 10-point rst-half decit, took a 13-10 halftime lead and didnt fall behind again until Polamalu scored with 5:13 left in the game. Joseph Addai ran 17 times for 86 yards and scored on a 6-yard run that tied it at 20 with 2:09 to go. Indys defense just couldnt hold it. Pittsburgh took advantage quickly. It got a 48-yard eld goal from Suisham on the opening possession and took advantage of a terrible mismatch linebacker Pat Angerer on Wallace for the 81-yard pass to make it 10-0 in the rst quarter. Then Indys defense did its best Pittsburgh impersonation.

e have a deal. My wife will watch Giants games with me and Ill watch some of her evening reality shows. Yes, Ive watched enough to know some of the infamous housewives from Jersey, Beverly Hills and New York. Im waiting for the Real Housewives of Brisbane series. Ive also seen this other show called The Millionaire Matchmaker, which is about a lady who nds dates for millionaires. Most of them arent partnered because they are incredibly self-absorbed, picky, control freaks (and a little nuts). Its great television. Of course, we do our own matchmaking at the shelter. In fact, were averaging 15 adoptions per day at our new Lantos Center on Rollins Road in Burlingame. People who have a pet and are looking for a partner pet ask if they should visit with their resident pet, for a face-to-face introduction. For dog adoptions, we recommend this. A face-to-face meeting can tell us (and you) a lot about what life might be like together. Not so much the case with cats; we ask cat owners to leave their resident cats home; an introduction like the kind we set up for dogs simply doesnt give us the same kind of useful information or a good idea of future compatibility. That said, we offer advice so cat adopters can ensure a smooth transition when they are bringing a new cat into a home with a resident cat. In some cases, cats get along well from day one with no special attention. To be on the safe side, we recommend that people take baby steps. Rather than having cats meet nose-to-nose, a better and safer rst step is having them separated; they can learn another cat is in the home without having physical contact. Take a towel that had been with the new cat, then move that towel to where the resident cat was hanging out.

LOS ANGELES Brad Pitt was unable to put the cat out of rst place at the weekend box ofce. Walt Disneys The Lion King reissue was No. 1 for the second-straight weekend with $22.1 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. That puts it just ahead of Pitts baseball drama Moneyball, a Sony Pictures release that opened at No. 2 with $20.6 million. Debuting closely behind at No. 3 was the Warner Bros. family lm Dolphin Tale with $20.3 million. Dolphin Tale stars Harry Connick Jr., Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman. The 3-D reissue of 1994s The Lion King has taken in $61.7 million since opening the previous weekend to a much bigger audience than expected. Thats on top of nearly $800 million worldwide the movie made in its original run and a 2002 re-release. The lm has done so well that Disney plans to leave it in theaters longer than the twoweek run the studio initially planned as a prelude to its Blu-ray home-video debut Oct. 4, said Dave Hollis, Disneys head of distribution. The studio has not yet decided how long or how widely the lm would play theatrically after the Blu-ray release, Hollis said. Consumers I think will be happy to consume it in multiple ways for this kind of franchise, as they have for the last 17 years, Hollis said. The Lion King held up well despite a rush of four new wide releases this weekend. Twilight co-star Taylor Lautners action tale Abduction opened at No. 4 with $11.2 million. The Lionsgate release casts Lautner as a teen hurtled into a world of espionage as he tries to uncover the mystery of his past. Another action thriller, Open Road Films Killer Elite, debuted at No. 5 with $9.5 million. The movie stars Jason Statham, Robert De Niro and Clive Owen as special-ops assassins caught up in a global revenge scheme. Moneyball stars Pitt as Oakland As general manager Billy Beane, who shook up the baseball world when his tight budget forced him to look for new ways to scout players. Jonah Hill co-stars as an economist who helps
1994s Lion Kingwas tops at the box ofce for the second straight week.
Sony pulled the plug in a squabble with Soderbergh over the script. Soderbergh departed, but Pitt stuck with it, determined to bring Michael Lewis best-seller Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game to the screen. Much of the book dealt with the numbercrunching sabermetrics system Beane adopted. To bring out the drama, Sony hired Aaron Sorkin, an Oscar winner for his screenplay on The Social Network, to rework a script whose previous scribes included Steven Zaillian, an Oscar winner for Schindlers List. Bennett Miller, the Oscar-nominated lmmaker behind Capote, was brought in to direct. Pitt also is a producer on the lm. It wasnt the easiest code to crack. You had this really great book, but to translate it wasnt necessarily the easiest thing, said Rory Bruer, Sonys head of distribution. You really needed people who believed in it, like Brad, and writers who understood it, and a director to really make it something very visual and compelling for folks to see. Dolphin Tale managed a solid start despite unexpected competition for family audiences from The Lion King. Based on a true story, Dolphin Tale centers on a group of strangers who come together to save an injured dolphin.

Athletic Field to allow youth soccer groups eld access and expand the elds hours and varieties of use. NDNU worked with city staff and planning commissioners to craft a new CUP but a group of residents in the Chula Vista neighborhood appealed the decision and the council eventually changed most of the approved conditions drastically, causing the university to eventually reject the new CUP. The decision caused an uproar in the city, splitting those who said the eld creates too much noise versus those who contend the city lacks adequate playing elds for the citys youth. Reed, as the chair of the Planning Commission, supported NDNUs request and criticized the council for its actions. A small group was listened to over the needs of the greater community, Reed said. It is why I am in the race. So many felt disenfranchised by the City Council. Two youth soccer groups then went through the Planning Commission to seek amendments to the CUP a second time, this time just asking that NDNU be allowed to open up Koret to those groups, without seeking any extra hours of use. The council approved that amendment last week. I think we remedied the problem with the recent change to the CUP, Wozniak said. She said the Planning Commission behaved disrespectfully toward the council through the whole process. Braunstein, however, said it was the council that behaved disrespectfully toward NDNU. NDNU and the Planning Commission worked well together, Braunstein said. Instead of playing the blame game, we should use the process, accept it and respect it. Brownlee was unfamiliar with the issue. At the end of this month, the BelmontSan Carlos Fire Department will ofcially dissolve as both cities have taken different approaches in providing the service. The once regional model for shared services has taken a step backward as Belmont will go it alone to provide re service. Moving forward, Wozniak said Belmont should consider regional approaches to re safety, perhaps partnering with another city, although she is not sure what city that might be. We tried mediation and it failed. We had to come up with a short-term x rst, Wozniak said. It is a shame the rst regional effort failed. She wants to look at ways of sharing the service with other cities without losing the departments or citys identity. But Braunstein said most residents in Belmont do not care that it says Belmont on the re trucks. Long term, it does not make sense nancially to go it alone, Braunstein said. He said too much of the discussion was spent in the media and not enough in face-to-face negotiations. Reed said dissolution was doomed to fail from the beginning with comments made by Belmont Mayor Coralin Feierbach. When the mayor says its a sin to do so that is not a good starting point, Reed said. We cant afford our own department. Regionalization is a must. Brownlee said dissolution was regrettable but added the councils actions to establish its own re department was an

excellent decision. Eventually, Brownlee said, the entire region should be served by a single re agency. When it comes to economic development, Braunstein said the city needs to boost sales tax revenue. He would like to see more businesses take root on El Camino Real and east of Highway 101, to minimize impacts to neighborhoods. Reed would like the city to hire an economic development director for downtown. If Autobahn Motors left town, the city would be in trouble, Reed said. Downtown needs to be developed, he said, to attract Oracle workers and NDNU students into the area. You cant put all your eggs in one basket, he said. For Brownlee, stopping the highspeed rail project outright on the Peninsula would be the best way to protect Belmont businesses. It would disrupt business on Old County Road for years, he said. Wozniak said the city has been attracting new business to Belmont, noting SunEdisons move from the East Coast to headquarter in the city. Hiring an economic development director would be great but some city positions may have to be eliminated to do so, she said. Brownlee is primarily running for a council seat because he opposes highspeed rail. No one is listening to the voters, he said. High-speed rail will split this community. It should be pushed to the 101 corridor. Wozniak, too, is opposed to the disruption high-speed rail could potentially bring to Belmont. A blended system as proposed by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, may not work for Belmont, she said. Escalating pension costs have driven up expenditures for cities and the state and a tiered approach for new hires has been taken by many municipalities. The rising costs, Wozniak said, will force the city to change the way we do business. Nobody in the private sector gets benets like city workers do, Wozniak said. She did say, however, that Belmont has a lower pension rate compared to other cities locally. Reed said that Belmont workers are at the bottom of the pension ladder compared to other cities and that salaries are low already for city workers. Belmont employees need to be appre-

ciated for the work they do, Braunstein said, but must partner with the city to show what we can afford. Costs have been brought down for the citys new re department, Braunstein cited as an example of how Belmont is cutting costs. The candidates also discussed how Belmont is perceived by other cities. Reed said his perception of Belmont is that the city is not seen as a team player to other cities. We are viewed as kind of an oddball, Reed said. The strained relationship with San Carlos needs to be xed, he said. Wozniak agreed. Id like to work with San Carlos. I grew up there, she said. Braunstein, too, said he would try to bring the two cities back together. Outside of troubles with the fire department, Brownlee said the city does work well with its neighbors. In the past four years, Wozniak has represented the city on a variety of regional boards while Braunstein has had a bit of a quieter role representing the city. Im a connector. I try to bring people together. I dont have to be front and center, Braunstein said. Wozniak said her experience representing the city regionally makes her a good t for the council. The more I do, the stronger I get, she said. As mayor, Wozniak asked for volunteers to join the joint re board with San Carlos. No one stepped up, so, I took the job on, she said. Ive demonstrated positive leadership. Reed is looking to put an emphasis on addressing the citys infrastructure needs, if elected to council, x the relationship with NDNU and boost downtown with economic development. Belmont has some of the worse roads in the region, he said. Im not sure weve been going in the right direction, Reed said. The election is Tuesday, Nov. 8.

MONDAY, SEPT. 26, 2011 LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you are too indecisive,
you might let a friend, associate or family member take it upon himself or herself to make a big decision for you. Dont blame the person who does so if you dont like his or her choice. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A big, urgent responsibility that youve been artfully dodging in hopes that someone else would do it, is likely to be dumped in your lap. You and your lap asked for it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you refuse to go along with the majority, you are likely to create a lot of unnecessary dissension among your peers. Smile
more likely to be tripped up by your own poor choices than you would be by any opposition. Subdue all erratic inclinations and eschew carelessness. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A lot of time and effort on your part could be wasted if your strategies are poorly planned or executed. It is important to establish a game plan that you know will work. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If the money isnt already in your bank account, dont think you can pay for something pricey without causing some big problems. Base your calculations on sure things. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Do not assume to
know what your mate would want when it comes to selecting something both you and she or he would use, especially if its a big purchase. Check with your better half first. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You should take extra precaution when working with tools or materials that youre unfamiliar with. In fact, double-check the instructions before you embark on your work. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A situation that has pronounced elements of possible failure attached to it should be checked very thoroughly before you get involved. It could create some serious problems. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If you are considering doing some refurbishing around your place, study
your plan before drastically changing anything. Impulsive action might not wear too well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be extremely selective to whom you go for advice. If you check with someone who knows less than you do, you are likely to compound your confusion. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Before making a large purchase, analyze your financial position very carefully to make sure it has the necessary elasticity to handle the financial stretching. Subdue any impulsive spending. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

tody and what alternative programs could get people out of cells and back into the community. There are completing views of criminal justice. There is a strong law and order emphasis in this county but I think public safety is more than just courts and jails. Its also programs we have in place for substance abuse and mental health programs. Its also about being smart, he said. Jacobs Gibson is no stranger to expressing doubts, or at least concern, about Munks proposal for a fullybuilt jail of at least 760 beds. Jacobs Gibson said she didnt have enough information in the past to support a pre-architectural proposal but has since learned a lot from several meetings with Munks, jail planning staff and other stakeholders. The specter of state realignment also caused a second look as well as more insight into plans for programming, treatment and the philosophy of how to treat inmates. When you put it together, then you really can see the benet of building a bigger jail, she said. Jacobs Gibson prefers the second option which is a larger jail but only outtted with 576 beds and an unnished top oor or wing. The shell approach allows expansion if necessary although some ofcials are also mulling ways to use the space for transitional housing or other inmate programs. Groom is also in favor. I dont think bigger is better but when you get overcrowded you cannot do the rehabilitation work that needs to be done and I dont want to build a facility that is obsolete the day we move in, she said. Although Munks prefers the larger plan, he accepts the alternative. It gives us the incentive to do everything we can to possibly hold down the population and live within our means, he said. Jacobs Gibson said her questions are now satised and needs no further information before giving the goahead on the second option which Munks has called a political compromise. I think we have to make a decision knowing that the discussions to actually address the funding is coming. Nobody is ignoring it, she said. Yet, for Pine, choosing to fund a jail means choosing not to fund other needs. We are building a new jail in San Mateo County. No matter what, its going to cause great pain to other programs, he said. He thinks approving a letter of intent at the Oct. 4 Board of Supervisors meeting will be ne but doesnt know that the time is now to choose a path until more concrete costs and funding strategies are known. Munks isnt including some costs like correctional health and food, said Horsley. Boesch also estimates a new large jail will push the structural decit to $118 million for scal year 20152016. I know a jail is three years off but we have to look at what this does to the decit, Horsley said. Munks said hes been consistent about costs over the past ve years and that it is not his role to nd the funding in the overall county budget. Its not like this snuck up on us. Its the countys managers job to gure it out. If they want me to I will but I would hope there was some planning going on behind the scenes rather than just saying its expensive and we cant afford it, Munks said. Munks said he doesnt recall similar pushback on the price tag when the county opted to build the San Mateo Medical Center or juvenile hall. I think weve pretty much covered all the ground that can be covered, he said. Its time for a decision. Horsley, the former sheriff who began pushing for a new womens jail in 2006, is denitely behind having a new facility but isnt sold yet on what type or size. Questions about cost led to oppose a construction contract with Sares-Regis.

planning team the greenlight to get a design out to bid. With the state sending back inmates beginning Oct. 4, the push is even greater to nd somewhere to put them, he said. Id love to put a shovel in the ground by next year, he said. But while several of the other supervisors said they are willing to give Pine the extra information he desires, the time is now to make some decisions about the size and type of jail needed. Continuing to stall until the costs are clear only delays the inevitable construction and jeopardizes the chance at a piece of the $300 million available by the state, said Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson. Im not minimizing the importance, but its two separate decisions. One is which plan do we want and secondly is how do we pay for it, she said. The county doesnt have to even build the jail size initially chosen but ofcials cannot be stalled by the budget issues, she said. We cannot delay simply because we dont have all the answers right now, she said. But for others, like Pine, the two are completely linked. Pine believes the county needs a new jail, particularly to replace the womens facility on Maple Street, but said there must be a broader conversation about the local incarcerated population who gets arrested, who is released from cus-
Cost estimates
In response to queries by Pine and Supervisor Don Horsley, County Manager David Boesch estimates operating the full jail will cost $38.7 million and a phased build is $29.4 million both higher gures that put forth by Munks. Munks estimates the jail to cost approximately $165 million to build followed by up to $31 million annually in operating costs. The county has already spent $17 million for the site on Chemical Way in Redwood City.
human services and nonprots who work in the jail. He initially thought a 350-bed jail was the goal but that realignment really changed the whole equation, meaning the impact of more state prisoners housed locally means there require additional space. Now, maybe 500 or 520, he thinks. Munks said the minimum estimate by the state of 241 inmates would leave a small jail over capacity from the rst day it opens. However, that estimate is low and the reality is likely at least double, he believes. Particularly with the advent of overcrowding continuing, Horsley and Pine want greater consideration of how to manage the pre-trial population such as releasing them on electronic home monitoring or their own recognizance. Those recommendations can be made by probation or the Sheriffs Ofce but judges have the nal say. Pine thinks committees working on the countys realignment plan may be a good place to have conversations with all those involved, including the judiciary, about nding new ways. Horsley is not keen on the idea of a shelled jail in which the unnished space is used as transitional housing. Even with curtains, its still a jail cell, he said. If you go, the jail planning study session is 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 28 in Board Chambers, 400 County Government Center, Redwood City.

Horsley, the newest supervisor prior to Pine, has some insight into the need but said the situation is different as a board member and he understands why Pine wasnt ready to go ahead. Horsley, too, wants more information from probation, health,
