VEEP  CANDIDATE  SAYS  HE WILL  REPAIR THE

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The ofcer who shot and killed a
South  San  Francisco  teenager  at  a
gas station in June feared for his life
and  the  shooting  was  a  lawful
response  to  the  boys  actions  that
night, according  to  a  statement  by
San Mateo County District Attorney
Steve  Wagstaffe
yesterday.
Family  and
friends  of  the
slain  teen,
Derrick  Gaines,
said  yesterday,
however, they do
not  believe  the
ofcer needed to
shoot  him.  His  mother  and  great
aunt  were  planning  a  speakout  and
rally Sept. 20 to demand justice for
Gaines, who  they  say  was  a  victim
of police brutality. 
Sept.  20  would  have  been  the
teens 16th birthday.
His  great  aunt  Dolores  Piper,
however, told  the  Daily  Journal  in
an  emotional  response  yesterday
that  she  is  not  sure  the  rally  will
take  place  after  the  District
Attorneys  Office  announced  its
findings  yesterday.  Gaines  lived
with Piper from about the age of 3.
Gaines  was  shot  June  5  at  the
Arco  gas  station  at  about  9  p.m.
after  he  and  another  teen  were
stopped  by  South  San  Francisco
police  Ofcer  Joshua  Cabillo, who
suspected  the  teen  was  carrying
drugs  or  possibly  a  weapon  due  to
his suspicious behavior.
The ofcer told Gaines to put his
hands in the air and the teen started
to  comply  before  eeing  the  scene.
The  ofcer  gave  chase  and  caught
up  to  him  quickly  before  grabbing

Maurice Tanis genre-bending musical representation of Oblique Americana will be making their Peninsula
debut at Angelicas Bell Theatre tonight in Redwood City.

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
The El Deora was a custom after-
market  variant  of  the  Cadillac
Eldorado  in  the  1970s. An  extrava-
gant boat of a vehicle, the once-lux-
urious  land  sharks  are  typically
trashed  specimens  of  patina    a
perfect  namesake  for  the  Maurice
Tanis genre-bending musical repre-
sentation of Oblique Americana.
Tani, 58, the fuel behind the 77 El
Deora  band, draws  from  this
hideous  Frankenstein  of  a  ride,
lending  itself  to  everything  from
good  ol honky-tonk  rock  to  poetic
romance. 
The  East  Bay  and  San  Francisco
are  the  bands  usual  stomping
grounds, but  77  El  Deora  will  be
making  their  Peninsula  debut  at
Angelicas  Bell  Theatre  tonight  in
Redwood City.  
Tani  has  played  in  everything
from  a  1960s  R&B  tribute  band  to
his  current  group  started  in  2004.
Regardless  of  various  denitions,
singing  and  art  are  functions  of
tension and release, Tani said.

A new charter school should open
next  fall  after  the  Redwood  City
Elementary  School  District  Board
of  Trustees  approved  the  proposal
from local parents last night.
Earlier  this  summer, Connect
Community Charter School submit-
ted a proposal to the district in hopes
of opening a school on the east side
of  town  that  features  shared  leader-
ship, social-emotional  learning  and
an  inquiry-based  approach.  On
Tuesday, the  petitioners  approved
the  proposed  memorandum  of
understanding.  On  Wednesday, the
board  also  voted  to  move  forward.
Now, Connect  supporters  can  start
raising  funds, publicizing  the  new
school  in  hopes  of  generating
enrollment  and  looking  for  a  home
to open the new school.
Its a unique opportunity but also
a  unique  model  that  we  dont  have.
As  a  school  district  of  choice, it
does  offer  an  opportunity  for  our
school  district  and  parents, said
Superintendent  Jan  Christensen.
Trustees  agreed  with  the  superin-
tendent.  Trustee  Shelly  Masur
thanked  the  petitioners  for  their
responsiveness  and  expressed
excitement about the possibilities of
working together.

Fake coyotes used to scare 
geese at Michigan beach
HOWELL, Mich.  A Michigan com-
munity  thats  fed  up  with  geese  fouling
up  a  beach  is  hoping  fake  coyotes
encourage the birds to land elsewhere.
The Livingston County Daily Press &
Argus  of  Howell  and WHMI-FM  report
that  the  beach  on  Thompson  Lake  at
Howell  City  Park  is  expected  to  be
closed for the rest of the summer swim-
ming  season  because  of  elevated  E.  coli
levels.  The  beach  was  shut  down  this
month and goose poop is blamed.
Debbie  Mikula  is  director  of  the
Howell  Area  Parks  and  Recreation
Authority.  She  says  the  fake  coyotes
have shown some success in keeping the
birds away. Theyre being moved at night
to  trick  the  geese  into  thinking  theyre
real.
The  hope  is  that  the  beach  about  45
miles  northwest  of  Detroit  will  reopen
next year.
FX orders 90 more episodes 
of Anger Management
LOS ANGELES  FX is ordering 90
more episodes of Anger Management,
Charlie  Sheens  TV  comeback  vehicle
after  being  red  from  Two  and  a  Half
Men.
The  unusually  large  order  reects  the
original agreement that FX made for the
sitcom that stars Sheen as a therapist.
As part of the deal,
FX  set  a  ratings  tar-
get  for  eight  of  the
rst  10  episodes  of
 A n g e r
Management. The
show  reached  the
threshold, earning an
automatic  90-
episode  order, the
channel said.
The round gure of 100 episodes is the
benchmark  for  series  syndication, and
thats  the  future  for  episodes  that  have
shown  first  on  FX, said  producer
Debmar-Mercury, a  Lionsgate  sub-
sidiary.
Anger Management will go into syn-
dication in September 2014, the compa-
ny  said  Wednesday.  Its  a  model  that
Debmar-Mercury used with the Ice Cube
sitcom  Are  We  There  Yet? and  on
Tyler  Perrys  House  of  Payne and
Meet the Browns.
FX  Networks  executive  vice  president
Chuck Saftler said hes condent the pro-
ducers  and  cast  will  be  able  to  produce
the  full  order  during  the  next  two  years
after quickly turning out the rst 10.
In July, Sheen said the prospect of con-
tinuing  is  as  exciting  as  hell, and
added, I  dont  think  90s  gonna  be
enough.
FX  called  Anger  Management
cables highest-rated new comedy series
this  year, averaging  4.5  million  total
viewers.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A  Norteo  gangmember  facing  three  life
sentences  for  two  separate  attacks  on  rivals,
including  one  that  left  him  facing  attempted
murder  charges, settled  the  dual  cases  in
return for four years in prison. 
Christian  Serrano  DeLeon, 22, pleaded  no
contest  to  felony  assault  with  a  rearm  and
gun  and  gang  charges  in  an  Aug.  14, 2011
shooting  of  a  Sureos  foot  and  pleaded  no
contest to felony assault and gang afliation in
a Dec. 27, 2010 assault. He was out of custody
on  the  earlier  case  when  he  committed  the
second.
DeLeon, who  receives  credit  of  390  days
against his sentence and must serve 85 percent
of  the  remainder, asked
not  to  be  sent  to  prison
until Sept. 30. He remains
in  custody  at  the  county
jail  without  bail  until  that
time.
Authorities  arrested
DeLeon  after  linking  him
to  the  shooting  of  Jose
Monroy, 28, who  was
found  bleeding  from  a
gunshot wound to his foot
on the 200 block of Grove Street. A few days
later, another  gunshot  victim  showed  up  at
Seton  Medical  Center  and  deputies  tracked
down  the  suspects, including  DeLeon.
Authorities believe DeLeon and Monroy were
in different gangs who exchanged slurs before
DeLeon, who  reportedly  goes  by  Spooky,
pulled  out  a  handgun  and  red.  Monroy  was
hit in the foot and the other victim had a bul-
let lodged in his sternum.
During  the  search  that  turned  up  DeLeon,
deputies  reported  nding  a  large  quantity  of
marijuana  and  a  bicycle  that  matched  the
description of the shooters bike. The bike had
been painted a different color.
In  May, prosecutors  tired  of  waiting  for  a
preliminary  hearing  asked  a  criminal  grand
jury  to  indict  him  on  attempted  murder  and
weapons  charges.  Prosecutors  dropped  the
cases  against  the  other  suspects  arrested
because  the  evidence  of  involvement  was
insufcient.
Gangmember gets four years prison in two attacks
By Judy Lin 
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO    The  bulk  of  the  pro-
jected  savings  in  the  public  pension  reform
deal announced by Gov. Jerry Brown wont be
felt for decades because most of the proposed
changes  will  affect  government  workers  who
have yet to be hired.
While  Brown  touted  his  deal  as  a  way  to
shore  up  Californias  retirement  systems, the
legislative  package  he  announced  Tuesday
also illustrates the difculty in addressing run-
away pension costs. Thats because retirement
benets for current government employees are
protected by decades of court decisions.
The  governor  announced  a  compromise
with  Democratic  lawmakers  after  months  of
negotiations. On Wednesday, the chief actuary
of  the  states  main  pension  fund    the
California  Public
Employees Retirement
System    estimated  the
pension  plan  will  save  the
system  $40  billion  to  $60
billion  over  30  years.  The
fund  currently  has  an  esti-
mated  $100  billion  in
unfunded  liabilities,
according  to  spokesman
Brad Pacheco.
Unlike  private-sector  retirement  plans,
which employers can change, court decisions
over 60 years have made clear that future pen-
sion benets are guaranteed to current public
employees.  Last  year, for  example, the  state
Supreme  Court  ruled  that  implied  contracts
covering retirees health care are valid.
That  case  was  brought  by  Orange  County
and  other  local  governments  trying  to  reduce
their  retiree  health  costs, and  remains  in  fed-
eral litigation.
People  have  vested  rights. You  cant  take
away  something  that  somebody  has  already
earned, said  Jeff  Lewis, an  Oakland-based
attorney who represents public employees and
retirees. People work in exchange for not just
their paychecks but also the promise of future
benets under a specic plan.
A 2011 pension report by the Little Hoover
Commission, an  independent  state  oversight
agency, had  urged  lawmakers  to  challenge
legal decisions by changing current employee
benets.
Public  agencies  must  have  the  exibility
and authority to freeze accrued pension bene-
ts for current workers, and make changes to
pension  formulas  going  forward  to  protect
state and local public employees and the pub-
lic good, the commission wrote.

San  Mateo  County  is  redesigning  its
Get  Healthy website  which  it  credits
over  the  last  eight  years  with  helping
obesity rates drop, including 5.6 percent

San Mateo County is one of only three
counties  where  obesity  rates  decreased
and the San Mateo County Get Healthy
Collaborative  behind  the  push  is  ramp-
ing up the effort with its redesigned site,
www.gethealthysmc.org. The site is one-
stop  shopping  for  sharing  information,
discovering  creative  ways  to  stay  active
and learning about upcoming events and
available funding for local programs.
With  many  of  our  cities rates  of
childhood  obesity  in  excess  of  30  per-
cent, the  county  wants  to  ensure  that
communities have access to the informa-
tion  they  need  to  make  the  most
informed  decisions  for  themselves  and
future  generations, said  Supervisor
Rose Jacobs Gibson in a prepared state-
ment.
Get  Healthy  is  also  launching  a  new

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A  25-year-old  Redwood  City  man
who drank six beers and crashed into a
parked car, breaking the leg and neck of
its  passenger, was  sentenced  yesterday
to four years and four months in prison.
Angeles  Torres-Fuentes  faced  up  to
five  years  after  pleading  no  contest  in
April  to  felony  drunk  driving  and
admitted causing great bodily injury in
the April 3, 2011 crash. On Wednesday,
Judge Craig Parson imposed just shy of
that term.
The sentence is not bad for the cir-
cumstances  of  the
case, said  District
Attorney  Steve
Wagstaffe. 
An g e l - To r r e s
admitted  having  six
beers  prior  to  the
April  3, 2011  crash
in  unincorporated
Redwood  City  and
showed  a  blood
alcohol  level  of  .16
percent, according  to  the  District
Attorneys Office.
According to prosecutors, at approxi-
mately 2:33 a.m., Torres-Fuentes struck
a car holding three people parked on El
Camino Real from behind. One passen-
ger  suffered  a  broken  neck  and  left  leg
while another had back and head pain.
The  California  Highway  Patrol  said
Torres-Fuentes  was  obviously  intoxi-
cated and failed field sobriety tests.
At  the  time, Torres-Fuentes drivers
license was suspended, prosecutors said.
Torres-Fuentes  was  originally  sched-
uled for sentencing in July but forfeited
his $20,000 bail by failing to appear in
court.  He  has  been  in  custody  without
bail since being apprehended.

SACRAMENTO  A bill that would
ban the public display of ries and shot-
guns in most California cities and towns
was on its way to the governor after the
state  Assembly  approved  it  Wednesday
over  strenuous  objections  from  several
lawmakers. 
Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, D-
La  Canada-Flintridge, said  he  initiated
the  legislation  in  response  to  gun  rights
advocates who began carrying unloaded
long guns to protest legislation approved
last  year  that  prohibited  the  public  dis-
play  of  handguns.  Opponents, mainly
Republicans, called  it  an  attempt  to
infringe on Second Amendment rights. 
Supporters  noted  that  the  latest  legis-
lation, AB1527, was sought by the state
police  chiefs  association  and  the  Peace
Officers  Research  Association  of
California, which  represents  local, state
and federal law enforcement ofcers.
Assemblyman  Gil  Cedillo, D-Los
Angeles, invoked  a  rash  of  recent  gun
crimes, including  fatal  shootings  this
summer inside a movie theater in subur-
ban  Denver  and  a  Sikh  temple  outside
Milwaukee.  None  of  the  high-prole
incidents  he  referenced  are  believed  to
have included ries or shotguns.

 Public  transit
agencies  are  one
step  closer  to  pro-
viding  better  cus-
tomer  service  for
patrons  who  choose
to  park  in  their  facilities. Authored  by
Assemblyman  Rich  Gordon, D-Menlo
Park, Assembly  Bill  2104 will  authorize
these  entities  to  enforce  their  own  parking
regulations  to  help  alleviate  parking  con-
gestion problems. The bill was sent to Gov.
Jerry Browns desk after it was passed in
the Assembly Wednesday. 
Reports  of  transit  agency-run  parking
facilities  being  plagued  by  various  prob-
lems, including parking by non-transit cus-
tomers, overnight  parking  and  storage  or
vehicle abandonment, have surfaced across
the  state.  Currently, only  peace  officers  or
designated employees by the state, board of
supervisors  or  city  council  can  ticket  or
remove  vehicles  that  violate  parking
restrictions. Exempt from this enforcement
authority are employees of the transit agen-
cies themselves, who regularly monitor the
parking  lots  and  onsite  facilities.
Assembly  Bill  2104  would  grant  these
employees the ability to remove and ticket
illegally parked vehicles.
  Gov.  Brown  announced  the  appoint-
ment  of  Gordon  to  serve  on  the  Pacific
State Marine Fisheries Commission.
Established  by  Congress in  1947, the
PSMFC  is  an  interstate  compact  agency
that helps resource agencies and the fishing

Millbrae single-use 
bag law to start Saturday
Starting Sept. 1, retail stores in Millbrae will
no longer be able to distribute single-use carry-
out  bags  when  the  citys  new  ordinance  goes
into effect. 
The  plastic  bags  tend  to  become  litter  that
adversely affects the local and marine environ-
ment, which  is  why  the  City  Council  adopted
the ordinance that prohibits the use of single-use
carryout  bags  at  grocery  stores, supermarkets,
convenience stores, drug stores, clothing stores
and other retail stores. Shoppers are encouraged
to bring reusable bags for shopping.
The types of businesses exempt from the ordi-
nance  include  food  vendors, including  restau-
rants  and  take-out  food  establishments;  dry
cleaners  and  nonprot  charitable  reuse  organi-
zations.  The  ordinance  also  does  not  apply  to
protective  types  of  bags, including  for  meat,
produce  and  bakery  items.  Stores  will  be
allowed  to  distribute  paper  bags, although  the
paper  bags  are  required  to  contain  a  minimum
of  40  percent  post-consumer  recycled  content
and  the  stores  will  charge  a  minimum  of  10
cents  for  each  point-of-sale  paper  bag.  The
stores  will  retain  the  charge  for  the  bags.  The
requirements  for  the  recycled  content  and
charge  on  the  paper  bags  are  included  in  an
effort to reduce the negative impacts to the envi-
ronment  from  any  potential  increased  use  of
paper  bags  and  to  help  the  stores  recover  the
cost of the paper bags.
To  help  with  the  transition  to  using  reusable
bags, the city will continue to distribute reusable
cloth  shopping  bags  made  from  100  percent
post-consumer  recycled  plastic  bottles  for
Millbrae  residents.  Those  interested  in  a  free
bag  can  visit  the  Public Works  counter  at  City
Hall, 621  Magnolia  Ave.  during  normal  busi-
ness hours. 
Burglary suspects in custody
A Redwood City man found prowling in the

morning  was  arrested  by  San  Mateo  County
Sheriffs Ofce deputies after searching for him
and  nding  several  pieces  of  property  stolen
from vehicles that were parked in the driveway
of Woodside homes.
Dean Goble, 21, was arrested for conspiracy,
possession  of  stolen  property, probation  viola-
tion and being under the inuence of a narcotic.
A  probation  search  of  Gobles  home  also
resulted  in  the  arrest  of  another  man, Killian
Hackett, who  was  in  possession  of  crystal
methamphetamine and a pipe used for smoking
narcotics, according  to  the  Sheriffs  Ofce.  A
search  of  Hacketts  vehicle  revealed  a  case  of
exotic wine and champagne that was stolen dur-
ing  a  residential  burglary  in  Portola  Valley,
according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
Killian, 19, was arrested for conspiracy, pos-
session of stolen property, possession of a con-
trolled substance and possession of parapherna-
lia.

Bill cracks down 
on party bus drinking
SACRAMENTO    Operators  of  so-called
party  buses would  bear  legal  responsibility
for  drinking  by  underage
passengers  under  a  bill
that  responds  to  several
recent tragedies.
AB45  would  hold  party
bus  operators  to  the  same
standards  as  limousine
drivers. It requires them to
have a chaperone to make
sure  underage  passengers
dont  drink  and  makes
them liable if passengers break the law.
Violations  would  be  misdemeanors  and
could  merit  civil  penalties  by  the  California
Public Utilities Commission, which regulates
limousines, shuttles and buses.
The  bill, authored  by  Assemblyman  Jerry
Hill, D-San  Mateo, passed  30-0  Wednesday
and returns to the Assembly.
It  is  named  after  19-year-old  Brett
Studebaker  of  San  Mateo, who  died  in  2010
after  drinking  on  a  party  bus.  He  crashed
while driving home an hour later.
Authorities say his blood alcohol level was
three times the legal limit.
State moves to give 
licenses to immigrant drivers
SACRAMENTO  California is moving to
give  drivers  licenses  to  young  immigrants
who are in the country illegally but would no
longer  face  deportation  under  a  recently
announced  policy  change  by  the  Obama
administration.
AB2189  would  require  the  Department  of
Motor Vehicles to accept as proof of legal res-
idence whatever document the federal govern-
ment  provides  to  participants  in  its  deferred
action  program.  It  passed  25-7  Wednesday
and returns to the Assembly.
The  bill  by  Democratic  Assemblyman  Gil
Cedillo  of  Los  Angeles  drew  support  from
three conservative Republicans.
Bill would improve 
media access to prison inmates
SACRAMENTO    Reporters  could
request  interviews  with  specic  inmates  in
California prisons under a bill headed to Gov.
Jerry Browns desk.
Sen.  Curren  Price, a  Democrat  from  Los
Angeles, says  the  bill  would  improve  trans-
parency  and  accountability  in  the  prison  sys-
tem.
AB1270  passed  the  Senate  21-13
Wednesday with the support of more than two
dozen media organizations, groups supporting
inmates rights  and  prison  reforms, and  the
union representing most prison guards.
Bill gives domestic 
workers union-style work rules
SACRAMENTO    Nannies, housekeep-
ers, child  care  providers  and  caregivers  in
California would be eligible for overtime and
meal  breaks  under  a  bill  making  its  way
through the Legislature.
The  bill  also  would  require  that  live-in
workers  be  compensated  if  their  eight-hour
rest period was interrupted.

In  the  music  industry  since  the  late  1970s,
Tani  has  performed  throughout  the  United
States  and  in  other  countries.  His  bandmates
and  group  names  have  changed  throughout
the  years, and  he  met  Jenn  Courtney, 44, the
penetrating voice behind the 77 El Deora, dur-
ing  a  brief  interlude  when  the  two  played  in
the band Hillside Wranglers.
In hearing Courtneys sultry voice, margin-
ally higher than his own, Tani recognized they
made a commanding duet. In search of artistic
satisfaction, he took his new muse and wrote
about  a  ctional  character  now  portrayed  by
Courtney, Tani said. 
Courtney  has  been  singing  in  rock  bands
since the 1980s. Her musical taste is eclectic,
which drew her to the group, she said. 
He and I have an amazing chemistry since
day  one, our  voices  come  together  really
well, said Courtney.
The  comically  witty  song  I  just  dodged  a
bullet from  their  2011  CD  The  Crown  and
the  Crows  Confession, is  a  light-hearted
banter  full  of  cheesy  breakup  lines  in  which
Tani  and  Courtney  are  heard  in  a  humorous
sparring of the sexes, said Tani. 
This type of comedy is central to Tanis pro-
fessed  trailer  park  operetta fragment  of  77
El  Deoras  range. After  all, its  always  better
to  have  people  laugh  with  you, than  at  you,
Tani  said.  Still, Tani  noted  a  sincere  and
sophisticated  meaning  in  the  bands  songs
which  explore  deeper  into  base  ideas  of  love
and  life, more  concerned  with, he  said,
human  relationships, and  what  makes  those
things  kick. The  variant  resonance  of  lyric,
sound and venue lift 77 El Deora to a unique
breed  of  music.  This  transformative  style
adjusts to their audience.  
Rarely do we get to do a show that is com-
prehensive of all the different forms of music
we play, Tani said. 
Tonights  performance  will  highlight  the
lighter, more  sensual  style  in  which  Tani
hopes to engage the audience. He likes to cre-
ate music on a level that relates to [listeners].
[Im] trying to reframe the human experiences
we all have, he said. In place of a usual ddle
player, Randy Craig will be on the piano.
Rocking  may  occur, but  it  will  be  a  more
rened rock, he said.
This Labor Day weekend, the ddle will be
thrown  back  into  play  at  El  Rio  in  San
Francisco as 77 El Deora will be playing on,
Tani said, Full rock band mode, as loud and
as bashy as we can get.
Regardless  of  venue  and  style, the  heart
wrenchingly funny country design paired with
lyrical  stories  remains  constant  for  Tani.
Unlike  verses  from  alternate  music  genres
where there is little, if no actual story progres-
sion, Tani  thrives  off  what  he  refers  to  as  a
lyrical song device. Each verse progresses and
tells you a little more about the character.
Information you couldnt glean the mean-
ing  of  off  the  bat, he  said.  You  have  to  get
all  the  way  through  the  song  before  you  can
get to what the writer really meant.

Im in total support of this. Im convinced
they will support all kids, he said.
Trustee Alisa MacAvoy was excited to see
the  social-emotional  focus, which  could  be
something  from  which  the  district  could

Community Charter Schools 118-page peti-
tion outlines plans to operate on the east side
of  town  with  a  focus  on  social-emotional
learning  and  inquiry-based  learning  that
would, at  capacity, serve  300  students  in
kindergarten  through  eighth  grade.  First
heard by the board in June, district staff and
charter  backers  worked  together  over  the
summer  to  clarify  details. Also, the  district
had  the  financial  aspects  of  the  charter  pro-
posal  analyzed  by  School  Services  of
California, Inc.
Ultimately, Christensen  recommended
approval  despite  some  concerns  about  the
schools  financial  viability  during  a  time  of
continuous state budget cuts.
Connects  program  calls  for  integrating
social  and  emotional  learning.  The  program
would allow students to work with the same
teacher  for  two  consecutive  years  to  build  a
relationship. Daily curriculum would include
visual  arts  and  physical  education.
Opportunities  for  hands-on  service  learning
with  the  community  would  be  offered.
Connect would participate in mandated state
tests  and  include  a  teacher-led  professional
learning community through a shared gover-
nance model.
As proposed, the schools founders aim
to  open  in  the  2013-14  school  year  with
25 students in kindergarten, first and sec-
ond grades and 50 students in sixth grade.
In  the  years  to  come, one  grade  will  be
added  to  the  elementary  and  middle
school  section  until  the  fourth  school
year, 2016-17, when the campus would be
at capacity with 300 students.
Since  the  petition  was  approved, Connect
will  most  likely  make  a  Proposition  39
request  to  access  facilities.  Since  the  school
isnt  starting  at  full  capacity, it  would  most
likely  use  a  number  of  classrooms  at  an
existing district site to start.
Currently, the  district  does  not  have  any
charter  schools.  Previously, Garfield  School
was  a  charter  school  sponsored  by  the
Redwood City Elementary School District. It
was  the  states  49th  charter  school  in  1994.
In February 2009, the Garfield Charter Board
voted unanimously not to renew the schools
charter and return to the district.

Isaac sidesteps direct
blow on New Orleans
By Cain Burdeau and Michael Kunzelman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW  ORLEANS    Hurricane  Isaac  sidestepped  New
Orleans on Wednesday, sending the worst of its howling wind
and heavy rain into a cluster of rural shing villages that had
few defenses against the slow-moving storm that could bring
days of unending rain.
Isaac  arrived  exactly  seven  years  after  Hurricane  Katrina
and  passed  slightly  to  the  west  of  New  Orleans, where  the
citys fortied levee system easily handled the assault.
The  citys  biggest  problems  seemed  to  be  downed  power
lines, scattered tree limbs and minor ooding. Just one person
was reported killed, compared with 1,800 deaths from Katrina
in  Louisiana  and  Mississippi. And  police  reported  few  prob-
lems  with  looting.  Mayor  Mitch  Landrieu  ordered  a  dusk-to-
dawn curfew just to be sure.
But in Plaquemines Parish, a sparsely populated area south
of the city that is outside the federal levee system, dozens of
people  were  stranded  in  ooded  coastal  areas.  The  storm
pushed water over an 18-mile levee and put so much pressure
on it that authorities were considering intentionally puncturing
the oodwall to relieve the strain.
Im  getting  text  messages  from  all  over  asking  for  help,
said Joshua Brockhaus, an electrician who was rescuing neigh-
bors in his boat.

Few think Bernanke to 
signal action at conference
WASHINGTON    Investors  are  hoping
Chairman  Ben  Bernanke  will  at  least  hint
Friday  that  the  Federal  Reserve  is  ready  to
launch another round of bond purchases to try
to lower long-term U.S. interest rates and spur
more borrowing and spending. 
Hes unlikely to deliver.
Economists  who  monitor  the  Fed  doubt
Bernanke will say anything dramatic when he
speaks  at  an  annual  economic  conference  in
Jackson  Hole, Wyo.  Many  think  a  slightly
brighter  economic  outlook
has  lessened  the  urgency
for the Fed to act soon.

give  some  signicant  clue
as  to  what  the  Feds  next
move  is, says  economist

CDC: 103 ill with 
salmonella tied to mangoes
WASHINGTON    Federal  health  ofcials
are  investigating  a  foodborne  illness  outbreak
that  has  sickened  more  than  100  people  in  16

ed mangoes.

probing what caused an outbreak of 103 cases
of salmonella Braenderup infections since July,
and  they  are  trying  to  identify  which  mango
brands or sources are tied to the illnesses. 
The  U.S.  Centers  for  Disease  Control  and
Prevention says 78 of the cases were reported
in California. No deaths have been reported. 
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency also

TAMPA, Fla.   Seizing the campaign
spotlight, vice presidential candidate Paul
Ryan  accepted  the
calling of my genera-
tion to  help  lead  the
country at age 42 and
told  roaring
Republican  National
Convention  delegates
and  a  prime-time  TV
audience  Wednesday
night  that  Mitt
Romney  and  he  will
make  the  difcult  decisions  needed  to
repair the nations economy.
After  four  years  of  getting  the
runaround, America  needs  a  turnaround,
and the man for the job is Governor Mitt
Romney, the  Wisconsin  lawmaker
declared in what amounted to his debut on
the national stage. He spoke at a conven-
tion  dogged  by  Tropical  Storm  Isaac,
downgraded  from  a  hurricane  but  still
inicting  misery  on  millions  along  the
nearby northern Gulf Coast.
We will not duck the tough issues; we
will lead, Ryan promised in a speech that
was  part  attack  on  Democratic  President
Barack  Obama  and  part  spirited  testimo-
nial  to  presidential  candidate  Romney,
warmed by a loving tribute to his own 78-
year-old mother, Betty.
To this day, my mom is a role model,
Ryan said as she beamed in her seat across
the hall and exchanged smiles with one of
his  children.  Delegates  cheered  their
approval.
A generation younger than the 65-year-
old  Romney, Ryan  emphasized  their  dif-
ferences as well as their joint commitment
to  tackle  the  economy, an  evident  appeal
to younger voters who ocked to Obamas
side in 2008.
There are songs on his iPod which Ive
heard  on  the  campaign  bus    and  on
many hotel elevators, he said to laughter
in the hall.
As  for  his  own  favorites, he  said
Romney actually urged me to play some
of these songs at campaign rallies. I said,
I  hope  its  not  a  deal  breaker, Mitt.  But
my  playlist  starts  with  AC/DC  and  ends
with Zeppelin.
Romney, in a secondary role if only for
a  moment, accused  Obama  of  backing
reckless  defense  cuts amounting  to  $1
trillion. Addressing  the American  Legion
in Indianapolis, he said, There are plenty
of  places  to  cut  in  a  federal  budget  that
now totals over $3 trillion. But defense is
not one of them.
Romney delivers his own nationally tel-
evised acceptance speech Thursday night
in the nal act of his own convention. The
political  attention  then  shifts  to  the
Democrats, who  open  their  own  meeting
on  Tuesday  in  Charlotte, N.C., to  nomi-
nate Obama and Vice President Joe Biden
for second terms.
Deep into a two-week stretch of nation-
al  gatherings, the  race  for  the  White
House  is  in  a  sort  of  political  black  hole
where the day-to-day polls matter little if
at all as voters sort through their impres-
sions.
Criticizing  Obama, Ryan  said  of  the
president  and  Democrats: Theyve  run
out  of  ideas.  Their  moment  came  and
went. Fear and division is all theyve got
left.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON    A  Navy  SEALs
rsthand  account  of  the  raid  that  killed
Osama bin Laden pulls back the veil on
the  secret  operations  conducted  almost
nightly by elite American forces against
terrorist suspects.
Former  SEAL  Matt  Bissonnettes
account  contradicted  in  key  details  the
account of the raid presented by admin-
istration  ofcials  in  the  days  after  the
May  2011  raid  in Abbotabad, Pakistan,
that killed the al-Qaida leader, and raised
questions about whether the SEALs fol-
lowed  to  the  letter
the order to only use
deadly  force  if  they
deemed  him  a
threat.
Bissonnette  wrote
that the SEALs spot-
ted  bin  Laden  at  the
top  of  a  darkened
hallway  and  shot
him in the head even
though  they  could
not  tell  whether  he  was  armed.
Administration  ofcials  have  described
the SEALs shooting bin Laden only after
he ducked back into a bedroom because
they assumed he might be reaching for a
weapon. 
Military  experts  said  Wednesday  that
if  Bissonnettes  recollection  is  accurate,
the  SEALS  made  the  right  call  to  open
re on the terrorist mastermind who had
plenty  of  time  to  reach  for  a  weapon  or
explosives as they made their way up to
the third level of the house where he hid.
Bissonnette wrote the book, No Easy
Day, under the pseudonym Mark Owen
as one of the men in the room when they
killed bin Laden. The book is to be pub-
lished  next  week  by  Penguin  Group
(USA)s Dutton imprint. The Associated
Press purchased a copy Tuesday.

Peninsula.
The  tank  deployment  earlier  this  month  had  brought  com-
plaints from Israel since the peace treaty between the two coun-
tries  bans  such  heavy  weapons  from  a  zone  along  the  border.
Israel had quietly agreed to Egypt sending thousands of troops
into  the  area    also  barred  under  the  treaty    to  ght  mili-
tants, but it had not consented to the tanks.
Nearly a dozen tanks that had been stationed near the Rafah
border  crossing  into  Gaza  were  seen  heading  out  of  northern
Sinai  on  Wednesday  afternoon.  Military  ofcials  told  the
Associated Press they were returning to their base in Ismailiya,
just on the other side of the Suez Canal from Sinai.
With  the  withdrawal, nearly  40  tanks  remain  in  the  border
zone.  The  ofcials  gave  no  reason  for  the  pullback.  The  of-
cials  spoke  on  condition  of  anonymity  because  they  were  not
authorized to discuss the deployment.
The head of security in Port Said, Sameh Radwan, said secu-
rity was being reinforced along the Suez Canal after threats the
strategic waterway could be targeted in retaliation for the offen-
sive, according to the state news agency MENA.

KABUL, Afghanistan   Afghan  President
Hamid Karzai moved to replace the countrys
intelligence chief and the ministers of defense
and interior Wednesday, the rst step in what
senior government ofcials said was a planned
wider  Cabinet  shake-up  aimed  at  solidifying
the presidents power before elections and the
drawdown of foreign forces. 
The  president  also  is  trying  to  shore  up  his
shaken  security  team  as  his  administration
struggles to build an army and police force in
the face of a resurgent Taliban as the U.S. and
other foreign forces begin to withdraw. Those
coalitions  training  efforts  have  increasingly
become a target for insurgents  NATO said
Wednesday  that  three  more  of  its  service
members  were  killed  by
an  Afghan  wearing  an
army uniform in the latest
in  a  string  of  attacks  by
Afghans  on  international
trainers.
Karzais  latest  reshufe
of  top  ofcials    if  it
goes through  appeared
to  be  an  attempt  to  stack
the  Cabinet  and  electoral
commission  with  his  allies  in  a  bid  to  retain
power  behind  the  scenes  after  his  nal  ve-
year  term  ends  and  the  international  troops
withdraw in 2014. 
With the elections coming, with the transi-
tion ... it is a time for him to re-strengthen his
team, said  Martine  van  Bijlert, an  expert  at
the  Afghan  Analysts  Network.  I  think  we
could be seeing a major reshufe. ... The ques-
tion is always: Can he make it stick?
An  Afghan  ofcial  close  to  the  presidents
ofce told the Associated Press the head of the
countrys  election  commission, the  attorney
general and the nance minister were expect-
ed to be among the top positions to be part of
the  shake-up. The  ofcial  spoke  on  condition
of anonymity because he was not authorized to
brief the media. 
Nothing  is  nal  until  there  is  an  ofcial
announcement from Karzai, and the president
could  still  change  his  nominees  or  leave  the
government largely untouched. But van Bijlert
noted that while rumors of Cabinet shake-ups
are common, Karzai may use the window pro-
vided  by  the  parliaments  sacking  of  his
defense  and  interior  ministers  to  make  wider
changes.
However, any  changes  must  be  conrmed
by parliament, and it is unclear whether Karzai
would be able to muster the necessary support
from lawmakers, many of whom feel the pres-
ident  too  often  ignores  parliaments  constitu-
tional  powers, to  push  his  nominees  through.
There  were  already  grumblings  among  law-
makers  about  some  of  the  names  that  have
emerged. 
Two  senior  Afghan  ofcials, speaking  on
condition of anonymity because they were not
authorized to release the information, told AP
that Assadullah  Khalid, the  minister  of  tribal
and border affairs, would replace Rahtamullah
Nabil  as  the  head  of  the  National  Directorate
of Security  the countrys main spy agency.
Khalid, a  former  governor  of  two  provinces,
has  been  criticized  for  alleged  human  rights
violations and could be a controversial pick.

Letters to the editor                         
 The Telegraph, London
M
itt Romney has been introduced
to the American people in many
guises: the hard-nosed executive
who saved Utahs Winter Olympics; the mid-
dle-of-the-road governor who brought univer-
sal health care to Massachusetts; the repen-
tant and radicalized Right-winger who cam-
paigned (twice) for his partys presidential
nomination; and now, since the selection of
Paul Ryan as his running mate, as the scal
conservative to bring sanity to the nations
nances.
In Tampa, Romney will be attempting to
synthesize these personae into something at
once more complex and more simple: a com-
mander in chief. If the making of a president
is Americas most distinctive rite, then the
party conventions are arguably the most
important moment in the liturgy, save for the
candidates debates, and of course Election
Day itself. Romney and his party will unveil
 with full orchestration  what they hope
will become the campaigns dening themes,
even as the Democrats seek to insert their
own nagging counterpoint.
Americans attention will be on Tampa not
merely because of the storm warnings, but
because there is a palpable sense  thanks in
part to the selection of Ryan  of how much
this contest matters. Often in elections, what
appears to be a cataclysmic contest of ideolo-
gy turns out to be a choice between shades of
technocracy. Not this time. The Republicans
chosen battleground is the very shape and
scope of U.S. government, not least since a
combination of political and scal pressures
mean that whoever is elected will face choic-
es that could ultimately determine whether
the worlds greatest power remains not just
prosperous, but even solvent. The stage is set
 and, for the moment, is Romneys to
seize.
Propositions to raise 
taxes for education
Editor,
We are at it again. More tax ... more services
... more waste. We are staunchly looking away
from the areas that need to be cut back and
programs that do not make one iota of differ-
ence for all of us but cost us all a major chunk
of available tax receipts in California. Yes, the
high-speed rail disaster is one of those projects
for sure, but there are many more. 
In the meantime, politicians are just unde-
terred and are grabbing our pocketbook once
more. I guess it is much easier to get it from us
then to look at the obvious. There is over-
spending at all levels of government and
bureaucratic public services. Cut that rst and
produce the savings. Segregate the general
fund from vital services and prevent anybody
from putting their grabby hands in the till.
Then come back and ask us again. I predict,
you wont need it anymore.

The real question
Editor,
In response to the letter entitled
Questions for voters published in the Aug.
24 edition of the Daily Journal, how on
earth can anyone be so blindly hi-jacked by
right-wing hate propaganda to think that
Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan can do a better
job than what President Obama has done?
While Obama has proved himself as a capa-
ble occupant of the highest office in the
world, Romney has used every opportunity
to demonstrate that he is uniquely unquali-
fied for the office, as well as dangerous to
the world.
This letter writer is not only illogical in
his assumption but also factually wrong.
Despite compact obstruction from an unpa-
triotic Republican party dead set on taking
him down, Obama has been able to drag us
partly out of the economic, social, scientific,
legal and military mess Bush left behind.
Contrary to the letter writers claims,
Obama turned heavy job losses under Bush
to steady job growth. Unemployment is still
high, partly due to sharp reductions in pub-
lic employment, but to think that Romney
could do better based on his record of
wrecked businesses, layoffs and outsourcing
is sheer nonsense. International relations are
vastly improved under Obama, a person to
whom the world looks as a responsible
leader who weighs the consequences of his
decisions and actions and who is pulling us
out of ill-conceived wars started by Bush
instead of diving blindly into new ones as
suggested by Romney. And lets not forget,
Obama did get Osama bin Laden using
more cool brain power than hot-tempered
fire power.
The question should rather be, Do we
want four more years of what George W.
Bush stuck us with or four more years of
continued progress under President Barack
Obama? The latter we need, the former we
cant afford.

The Republican National Convention
Other voices
 Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald
O
K, so its been a while since there
was any real drama at a national
political convention.
Back when, the Democrats could brawl for
16 days and 103 ballots (New York, 1924) in
picking their nominee. Republicans
(Chicago, 1912) could watch a slugfest
between an incumbent president, William
Howard Taft, and a former president,
Theodore Roosevelt, that would leave the
loser running anyway as a Bull Moose.
But lately? Modern conventions pretty
much are scripted coronations for nominees
chosen months earlier in primaries and cau-
cuses. Even the announcement of a vice pres-
idential choice comes well before the con-
vention opens.
So the major television networks, which
once aired the events almost gavel-to-gavel,
have pulled back. ABC, CBS and NBC are
promising only three hours of coverage
spread over the four nights of each conven-
tion  Republicans in Tampa, Fla. and
Democrats in Charlotte, N.C.
But despite network TVs shrinking inter-
est, the 2012 conventions may be more
accessible to interested voters than ever.
Newspapers will report on the events in
detail, and there will be a new wave of live
coverage utilizing the Internet, social media
such as Facebook and Twitter, tablet comput-
ers and smartphones.
These conventions are an institution going
back to the 1830s, yet many 21st-century
Americans are still paying attention. For
three convention nights over two weeks in
2008, more than 40 million people watched
the speeches of Barack Obama, John McCain
and Sarah Palin on television.
While its easy to poke fun, these quadren-
nial pep rallies remain more than a place to
see donkey jewelry and elephant hats.
National political conventions

Oh, rats!
T
he hantavirus is creeping closer. I can
feel it just as certainly as I feel the
presence of beady little eyes and fuzzy
little ears as I step into the darkened employee
kitchen or hear the rustle of paper in corner
cubicles.
Granted, I havent been to Curry Village in
Yosemite National Park for years but as the
death toll from the hantavirus rises, it seems
clear the virus leap from the tent cabins to sub-
urbia and beyond is just a matter of time. With
one of Mickey Mouses less adorable relatives
making itself at
home in the news-
room building, too,
it doesnt take that
much imagination
to put two and two
together.
Of course, were
not even sure yet if
it is (maybe was
is a better tense 
he or she hasnt
been spotted for a
while) a mouse or
rat. The worker
who found the ani-
mal popping up from the sink certainly claimed
rat although that might be the surprise and
adrenaline talking. Another person thought
mouse, although the critter may have appeared
smaller being spotted across a room.
Either way, the signs of an unwelcome guest
were inarguable. Droppings in a desk drawer. A
plant one day disturbed, the next day complete-
ly uprooted. Plastic cracker package wrapping
chewed open and crumbs scattered about.
Pieces of chocolate missing  think chocolate
is as fatal to vermin as it is to dogs? With most
reporters hoarding stashes of cookies and pro-
tein bars, candy and popcorn for late-night
assignments and days when lunch breaks are
out of the question, the mouse or rat or what
have you certainly hit the culinary jackpot.
Unfortunately for him or her, they also
messed with the wrong people.
Traps were set. Likewise bounties. Twenty
dollars for whoever brought it down, came the
promise. The plotting began. Set out bowls of
antifreeze was one matter-of-fact idea. We need
a bow and arrow, came another. When we catch
the mouse, put its head on a stick as a warning
to any others to stay away. That last one was
mine.
Suddenly, we were a combination of The
Hunger Games and Apocalypse Now 
and this was before the hantavirus outbreak
upped the ante.
The hype has hantavirus delivering on the
hysteria promised in past years by SARS, avian
u, West Nile virus, contaminated lettuce and
mangoes. 
Of course, if the mice dont get us with the
hantavirus the squirrels with plague are waiting
in the wings. Yep, in another nod to vintage
infections, three ground squirrels this week
tested positive for bubonic plague. Somehow
the cute creatures scurrying up and down the
trees outside the ofce window dont look so
warm and fuzzy anymore. Instead, they are
deathtraps with a bushy tail, eager to wipe out
those few the hantavirus leaves behind.
Obviously, the vermin are beginning to work
together and the humans are on the losing side.
But the dangers to humankind arent just
those with a heartbeat. Two guests at a Chicago
hotel died of Legionnaires disease and six oth-
ers fell ill from the water-borne bacteria. Nine
have died from Legionnaires disease in
Quebec City. Even if we stay inside to avoid
the evil vermin, the air conditioning systems
will still get us.
Whats next? Ebola?
The time has obviously come to put our-
selves in a sterile bubble or stock up on face
masks and latex gloves  at least until we
learn those products carry their own batch of
hazards.
Or, maybe we can just take a deep breathe 
albeit one not anywhere near a tent cabin or a
well-cooled hotel  and realize the only thing
really catching is fear.

NEW YORK    Slightly  better  eco-
nomic  growth  and  stronger  housing
sales  nudged  the  stock  market  higher
Wednesday.  The  Dow  Jones  industrial
average managed a four-point gain.
The U.S. economy expanded at a 1.7
percent  annual  rate  from April  through
June  thanks  to  rising  consumer  spend-
ing and exports. Thats an improvement
from the initial estimate of 1.5 percent,
but  not  enough  to  put  a  dent  in  the
unemployment rate.
The National Association of Realtors
said  its  index  of  sales  for  previously
owned  homes  increased  2.4  percent  in
July, reaching  its  highest  level  since
April 2010, the last month buyers could
qualify for a federal tax credit.
Its  a  mixed  message  overall, said
JJ  Kinahan, chief  derivatives  strategist
at  TD  Ameritrade.  We  all  know  we
need 2 percent (economic) growth. And
you cant continue to improve on hous-
ing if the unemployment picture doesnt
improve.  At  some  point, the  numbers
have to match.
The  Dow  added  4.49  points  to  close
at 13,107.48. 
The  Standard  &  Poors  500  index
added 1.19 points to 1,410.49, while the
Nasdaq  composite  index  gained  4.05
points to 3,081.19.
Crude  oil  lost  84  cents  to  finish  at
$95.49.  Hurricane  Isaac  made  landfall
Tuesday night, but its heavy winds and
rain  arent  expected  to  cause  extensive
damage  to  oil  production  and  refinery
operations in the Gulf of Mexico.
Markets have slipped into a late-sum-
mer  lull.  Indexes  have  barely  budged
amid some of thinnest trading days this
year.  After  three  days  of  minuscule
moves, the S&P 500 index is down less
than one point for the week.
Just over 10 billion shares have been
traded  on  the  New  York  Stock
Exchange  over  the  past  four  sessions,
the  slowest  stretch  since  the  last  four
days  of  2011.  One  measure  of  stock-
market volatility, the Vix, recently sank
to a five-year low.
Kinahan  said  the  markets  apparent
lack of direction makes sense, especial-
ly ahead of the Labor Day weekend and
a  highly  anticipated  speech  by  Federal
Reserve  Chairman  Ben  Bernanke  on
Friday.
Theres  no  incentive  to  take  a  big
trading  position, he  said.  Many  peo-
ple  I  know  plan  on  taking  a  three-day
weekend  or  are  just  coming  in  for  the
speech  to  see  if  (Bernanke)  says  any-
thing  interesting  or  market-moving.  If
not, theyre outta there.

Big movers
By Jonathan Fahey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK    Drivers  are  being  hit
with the biggest one-day jump in gasoline
prices in 18 months just as the last heavy
driving weekend of the summer approach-
es.
As Hurricane Isaac swamps the nations
oil and gas hub along the Gulf Coast, its
delivering  sharply  higher  pump  prices  to
storm-battered residents of Louisiana and
Mississippi    and  also  to  unsuspecting
drivers  up  north  in  Illinois, Indiana  and
Ohio.
The national average price of a gallon of
gas jumped almost ve cents Wednesday
to  $3.80, the  highest  ever  for  this  date.
Prices  are  expected  to  continue  to  climb
through  Labor  Day  weekend, the  end  of
the summer driving season.
The national average will keep ticking
higher, and  its  going  to  be  noticeable,
says  Patrick  DeHaan, senior  petroleum
analyst at Gasbuddy.com
The  wide  storm  shut  down  several
reneries along the Gulf Coast and others
are operating at reduced rates. In all, about
1.3  million  barrels  per  day  of  rening
capacity  is  affected.  So, its  no  surprise
that  drivers  in  Louisiana, Alabama,
Mississippi  and  Florida  saw  gas  prices
rise by a dime or more in the past week.
But some states in the Midwest are suf-
fering  even  more  dramatic  spikes.  Ohio
prices  jumped  14  cents, Indiana  prices
soared 13 cents and Illinois prices jumped
10 cents on Wednesday alone according to
the Oil Price Information Service. 
Isaac brings higher gas prices
Amazon.com to begin collecting sales tax
HARRISBURG, Pa.  Beginning Saturday, Amazon.com
Inc.  will  start  collecting  Pennsylvania  sales  tax  on  orders
that are shipped to the state, a spokesman said Wednesday.
The online retail giant had previously refused to register to
collect  Pennsylvanias  6  percent  levy  on  its  orders.  But  a
spokesman said the company reversed itself because a state
directive requiring it takes effect Saturday.
We believe that customers (in Pennsylvania) will contin-
ue to come to Amazon because we offer the best prices with
or without sales tax, said the spokesman, Scott Stanzel.
The  Seattle-based  company  currently  collects  sales  taxes
on  orders  shipped  to  six  other  states    Kansas, Kentucky,
North Dakota, New York, Texas and Washington. It plans to
add California to the list on Sept. 15, he said.
Yelp shares surge as insiders hold on to stock
SAN  FRANCISCO    Yelps  early  backers  apparently
still have a high opinion of the online business review serv-
ice, much  to  Wall  Streets  relief, after  insiders  at  several
other Internet companies dumped some of their shares at the
rst opportunity. 
A  Wednesday  increase  of  more  than  22  percent  n Yelps
stock  price  signaled  the  companys  major  shareholders  are
holding on to their stakes instead of seizing on a chance to
reap the gains that have accumulated from investments made
before the 8-year-old service went public in early March.

NEW YORK  The federal judge presiding over challenges
to  Google  Inc.s  plans  to  create  the  worlds  largest  digital
library has refused to delay the 7-year-old case while Google
appeals his decision to grant authors class certication.
U.S.  Circuit  Judge  Denny  Chins  order  was  put  in  the

that  class  action  was  more  efcient  and  effective than

Terra Nova built for success
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Regardless  of  the
offensive  system  or  the
graduation of key play-
ers, there  has  been  one
constant  for  the  Terra
Nova football program:
w i n n i n g .
Since the advent of the
Peninsula  Athletic
Leagues Bay Division,
the  Tigers  are  the  only
team that has remained
in  the  PALs  most  com-
petitive  division  since  its
inception in 1996. On top of
that, the Tigers have had only one losing season in
22 years.
Were  doing  something  right, especially  at  a
public school where the talent level uctuates annu-
ally, said coach Bill Gray, who enters his 23rd sea-
son at the helm of the Terra Nova program. Getting
there (to the top) is fun, staying there is really hard.
 The way we do things works. It lends itself to not
having the ups and downs.
The  biggest  change  for  the Tigers  this  season  is
replacing  quarterback  Chris  Forbes  and  a  bevy  of
wide receivers. For a lot of teams, the loss of a pro-
lic player such as Forbes would almost guarantee
a down year the following season.
Not  for  the  Tigers.  Gray  plugs  in  senior  KRen
Spain who, in his one start against Half Moon Bay
last season, accounted for 483 yards of total offense,
throwing for 360 yards and rushing for 123.
Spain has garnered a lot of press around the Bay
Area  leading  up  the  start  of  the  season, but  Gray
doesnt  believe  that  puts  any  undue  pressure  on
Spain.  Mainly  because  Gray  doesnt  pay  attention
to what others say.
[Spain]  is  very  even-keeled, fun-loving  student
of  the  game  of  football  who  just  loves  to  play  the
game of football. Its a pleasure to watch him every
Woodside looking to restore a sense of pride
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Not too long ago, youd be hard pressed to nd
another  team  with  more  football  swagger  than
Woodside High School. 
But  after  a  couple  of  atypical  seasons, includ-
ing a 1-4 PAL Ocean Division campaign in 2011,
even brand new head coach Josh Bowie said that
feeling had slowly left the Wildcats locker room.
So  when  Bowie  took  over  the  job  less  than  a
month  ago, step  one  was  to  try  and  track  down
that Wildcat condence present when he was the
defensive coordinator from 2007 to 2009.
And  with  their  rst  showdown  of  the  year  a
couple of days away, Bowie said slowly but sure-
ly that swagger is re-emerging. 
Thats  going  to  be  the  magic  ticket, Bowie
said.  Every  team  has  good  athletes, every  team
has players that work hard. But it takes those indi-
vidual  players  and  those  individuals  athletes  to
get them to play together as a team, to truly care
and  to  truly  want  to  win  for  each  other.  Thats
when the magic happens.
Bowie knows a thing about that magic. As a
former defensive coordinator for the Wildcats, he
had  his  hand  in  a  pair  of  very  good  Woodside
football  teams  before  heading  south  to  assist  at
Sacred Heart Prep. Hes also a former Woodside
player, graduating  in  1998.  So  to  say  that  he
bleeds black and orange isnt an overstatement. 
I love Woodside football, Bowie said. I care
about  it  and  I  want  to  see  it  continue  and  get  to
those  years  when  we  had  signicant  success.  I
really  wanted  to  take  it  a  little  further  and  build
these  kids  into  quality  adults  that  are  a  part  of
something bigger then themselves. 
One of the main things that I really like about
these  kids  is  that  they  all  want  to  get  better,
Bowie said. Theyre willing to push themselves.
The  biggest  thing  is, they  still  dont  know  how
hard  they  can  really  go.  They  dont  they  can  go
way  past  their  own  limitations. And  what  were
trying to do is show them different ways of doing
things.  So  far, the  attitude  has  been  great.  Every
kid  has  been  buying  into  what  were  doing  and
buying into the philosophy of it.
Woodside could very well take their fair share
of bumps and bruises in 2012. But in a sense, this
season  is  about  laying  down  a  new  and  proper
foundation at Woodside since, for the rst time in
20  years, Steve  Nicolopoulos  will  not  roam  the
Wildcat sidelines. 
I  think  that  they  sense  my  enthusiasm  for
Woodside football, Bowie said. Because I have
knowledge of these great teams of the past, I have
instant  credibility  with  the  kids.  The  other  thing
too, being  a  Woodside  alum, I  have  been  in  the
same seat as them. I know some of the challenges
these  kids  have  to  deal  with, and  because  Im  a
part of that Woodside family myself, I again have
that  instant  credibility  with  some  of  these  kids.
These  kids  are  eager  to  learn, theyre  ready  to
work hard and all they want to do is to get better.

Y
ou know what I nd to be the most
impressive aspect of the Little
League World Series? Its not the 6-
3 kid from Petaluma, or the fact nearly every
player can hit moonshots well past the fence
and onto the hill beyond the outeld. Its not
the feel-good story about the team from
Uganda (which was absolutely inspirational.
If you didnt catch the Jimmy Rollins-led
feature before the United States champi-
onship game, nd it online), or the sheer
amount of attention these kids get.
No, what I nd most incredible is the journey
just to get there. Take the Petaluma team, for
example. Its coach said
in an interview the
team had played 25
tournament games to
that point. The incredi-
ble part? Neither
Petaluma  nor any
other team on the U.S.
side  had lost two
games in a row essen-
tially all summer long.
Think about that.
Teams have to win a
district championship, a
sectional title, a divisional crown and win a
regional tournament to get to Williamsport,
Pa. All the while, those teams can not lose
two games in any single tournament. One
loss makes the task that much harder, but at
least theyre still in it. Lose two? Done. Its
over.
These kids really are the best of the best.
***
While on the subject of the Little League
World Series, anyone else in awe of the sheer
distance some of these kids were hitting
home runs?
The ones I saw were no simple wall scrap-
ers. They were no-doubt-about-it blasts that
ended up on the hill behind the stadium in
Williamsport.
I dont begrudge the kids. Its something
every Little Leaguer dreams of: hitting a
home run. Regardless of the level of play, its
difcult to hit a homer. But when those Little
League kids at the World Series got a hold of
one, man they were impressive.
That being said, its time Little League
does something. The organization either
needs to move the fences back or dumb

49ers sign Masifilo, waive Beeler 
SANTA  CLARA    The  San  Francisco
49ers  have  signed  defensive  tackle  Matthew
Masilo to a two-year contract.
The  49ers  also  announced Wednesday  that
they waived center Chase Beeler.
Masifilo  originally  signed  with  San
Francisco  as  an  undrafted  free  agent  out  of
Stanford  in  May.  He  was  released  on
Monday, but brought back two days later.
Beeler spent last season on the teams prac-

Raiders pick up DB Coye Francies
ALAMEDA  The Oakland Raiders have
claimed  defensive  back  Coye  Francies  on
waivers from the Seattle Seahawks.
The  Raiders  announced  the  move
Wednesday, two  days  after  Francies  was
waived by Seattle.
Francies  played  in  eight  games  with  the
Cleveland Browns from 2009-10 and also has
experience as a kick returner. Oakland needs
help  in  that  area  with  Denarius  Moore  and
Jacoby Ford both nursing injuries.
To  make  room  on  the  teams  active  roster,
the  Raiders  waived  defensive  back  Conroy
Black.
Oakland  also  moved  offensive  lineman
Zach Hurd (head), fullback Rashawn Jackson
(hip), and offensive lineman Ed Wang (shoul-
der) from waived/injured to injured reserve.
Former RB says Irish need bad guys
SOUTH BEND, Ind.   Notre Dame ath-
letic  director  Jack  Swarbrick  took  exception
Wednesday to comments by former Irish run-
ning  back  and  current  radio  analyst  Allen
Pinkett, who said a team needs to have some
bad guys because it provides an edge.
In a radio interview with Chicagos WSCR-
AM, Pinkett  said: Ive  always  felt  like, to
have  a  successful  team, you  have  to  have  a
few bad citizens on the team.
In  a  statement  before  the  team  left  for
Dublin  for  Saturdays  season  opener  against
Navy, Swarbrick  called  Pinketts  comments
nonsense.
Pinkett  said  thats  how  Ohio  State  used  to
be get an edge.
Coach  Brian  Kelly  recently  suspended  top
tailback  Cierre  Wood  and  backup  defensive
end Justin Utupo for two games for violating

pended  for  Saturdays  opener  against  Navy

STANFORD    Jordan  Williamson  walks
around  the  sunny, tree-lined  Stanford  campus
with  a  smile  now.  Hes  surrounded  by  an
extended  family  of  friends  and  fans  he  never
knew he had, willing to help him through the
most trying time of his young life.
Perhaps  nobody  has  looked  forward  to  No.
21  Stanfords  season  opener  Friday  night
against  San  Jose  State  more  than  the  sopho-
more  kicker.  Now  he  can  nally  get  past  that
humbling  night  at  the  Fiesta  Bowl, holding
nothing  back  about  what  happened  or  what
followed.
And make no mistake: Its been a long road
back.
Williamson  has  been  reminded  for  nearly
nine months that he missed three eld goals in
the Arizona desert, including a potential game-
winner at the end of regulation and another in
overtime. He puts more blame on himself than
any of his coaches or teammates ever will for
his role in sending No. 1 overall pick Andrew
Luck  and  an  elite  class  of  seniors  out  with  a
41-38 loss to Oklahoma State.
It  was  really  difcult  because  I  had  never
been  through  anything  like  that  before,
Williamson said this week in a rare interview
since the bowl game Jan. 2. I would say that
thats the toughest thing that I had to deal with.
I got advice from a lot of other people, and a
lot  of  people  helped.  Its  just  one  of  those
things that heal with time. Its something you
wont forget, but its something that you have
to use to motivate you.
Williamson is willing to talk about what for
so many months he couldnt.
His redshirt freshman season started strong.
He made his rst six eld goals and 11 of 12
to start the season, including two from beyond
40  yards.  He  had  been  a  Lou  Groza  Award
seminalist for the nations top kicker. 
Everything  changed  when  he  tore  a  groin
muscle in practice in October and missed three
games    Southern  California, Oregon  State
and Oregon. Eric Whitaker went 4 of 5 lling
in during that stretch. Williamson returned and
missed  2  of  3  eld  goals  and  did  not  handle
kickoffs  in  the  nal  two  games  against  Notre
Dame and California.
Then came the Fiesta Bowl.
All  three  misses  by  the  right-footed
Williamson  landed  left.  He  missed  from  41
yards  and  made  from  30  yards  earlier  in  the
game. Stanford coach David Shaw ran out the
clock  on  Lucks  nale  drive    a  decision  he
has  repeatedly  defended    and  set  the  stage
for  Williamsons  35-yard  attempt  with  the
game tied on the nal play of regulation.
To  be  honest, I  was  pretty  excited,
Williamson said. I was feeling pretty good. I
was  thinking  things  are  going  to  go  my  way,
but obviously they didnt. That was a little dis-
appointing, but  I  was  ready  for  it.
Unfortunately, it just didnt go my way.
Williamson, who also missed a 43-yarder in
overtime, is  adamant  that  he  was  healthy
enough  to  play.  He  believes  the  misses  were
due to his mechanics failing and the extended
time  off  from  handling  eld  goals  and  kick-
offs.
Picked my head up a little quick, got excit-
ed and it just came across, he said. I think a
lot  of  people  thought, Oh, it  was  a  mental
deal. But  to  be  honest, I  dont  really  think
thats what it was. I think it was more me just
trying to get back in the rhythm and the differ-
ent timing.
After the game, Williamson wept in the cor-
ner  of  the  locker  room.  Teammates  shielded
him  from  reporters, patted  him  on  the  head,
tried to console him and offer words of encour-
agement.  While  there  were  nasty  Facebook
messages, there  were  far  more  encouraging
emails and text messages. 
Williamson returned home to Austin, Texas,
where he was met by a group of friends at the
airport. They took him out and tried to get his
mind off the misses. Alone at night, there were
more emotions for the psychology major.
Williamsons  mother, Laura  Burton, even
sent a letter to the parents of Stanford players
to  express  my  utter  sorrow  for  how  things
played  out and  thanking  them  for  never  in
my life have I seen the kindness, maturity, and
love  that  has  been  displayed  by  this  Stanford
family for helping her son.

people, and a lot
people helped. Its

NEW YORK  The NFL will open the reg-
ular  season  next  week  with  replacement  of-
cials  and  said  it  was  prepared  to  use  them  as
much ... as necessary afterward.
Replacements  will  be  on  the  eld  beginning
Wednesday  night  when  the  Dallas  Cowboys
visit the New York Giants in the season opener,
league  executive  Ray  Anderson  told  the  32
teams in a memo. Negotiations are at a standstill
between the NFL and the ofcials union.
The  NFL  Referees  Association  was  locked
out in early June and talks on a new collective
bargaining  agreement  have  gone  nowhere.
Replacements  have  been  used  throughout  the
preseason, with mixed results.
In  2001, the  NFL  used  replacements  for  the
rst  week  of  the  regular  season  before  a  con-
tract was nalized. The speed of the game and
the  amount  of  time  starters  are  on  the  eld
increase  exponentially  for  real  games, making
the replacements task more challenging.
Anderson, the NFLs executive vice president
of football operations, told the clubs in a memo
Wednesday that the replacements will work as
much  of  the  regular  season  as  necessary,
adding that training with each crew will contin-
ue. 
The  NFL  noted  it  has  expanded  the  use  of
instant replay as an ofciating tool this year to
include  all  scoring  plays  and  turnovers.
Ofciating supervisors will be on hand to assist
the crews on game administration issues.
We  are  not  surprised, based  on  Ray
Andersons statements ... that the NFL was not
going  to  reach  out  to  us, NFLRA  spokesman
Michael Arnold said. However, this is consis-
tent with the NFLs negotiating strategy which
has been take it or leave it and lock them out.
It now appears the NFL is willing to forego any
attempt  to  reach  a  deal  in  the  last  seven  days
before opening night.
The  NFL  Players  Association, which  went
through a 4  1/2- month lockout last year before
settling  on  a  new  contract, expressed  disap-
pointment  about  the  decision  to  use  replace-
ments.
Colts  safety  Antoine  Bethea  said  there  is  a
feeling of solidarity with the ofcials.
Theyve  got  to  do  what  theyve  got  to  do,
and we were in a similar situation a little while
ago, Bethea  said.  So  you  cant  fault  those
guys for doing what they have to do.
Anderson said the sides remain considerably
apart on economic issues, including salary and
retirement benets. He also told the teams there
is a substantial difference on operational issues.

CLEVELAND  Josh Donaldson
hit  a  three-run  homer  and  ve
Oakland Athletics pitchers combined
to beat the Cleveland Indians 8-4 on
Wednesday night.
Oakland  took  over  the  AL  wild-
card  lead  by  one  game  over
Baltimore  with  its  11th  win  in  13
games as Travis Blackley (5-3) gave
up two runs over 5 2-3 innings. Ryan
Cook got four outs for his 13th save.
Donaldson  connected  off  rookie
Corey  Kluber  (0-3)  in  the  fourth
inning for a 3-2 lead. Shoddy elding
by  the  Indians, losers  of  13  of  14,
helped  the Athletics  later  extend  the
lead.
Jason  Donalds  homer  in  the  third
broke  the  Indians 24-inning  score-
less streak, but they fell to 5-26 since
July 27.
Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera
was ejected in the rst inning by plate
umpire  Gary  Darling, who  took
exception  to  the  All-Star  arguing  a
called  third  strike.  The  whiff  made
Cabrera 4 for 36 (.111) in his last 10
games.
Cleveland, scoreless in 52 of its last
57  innings, scored  more  than  three
runs for the rst time in 10 games.
Yoenis Cespedis and Josh Reddick
each had three of Oaklands 15 hits as
the Athletics moved to 7-0 against the
Indians  since  April  22, outscoring
them 44-14.
Donalds  homer  was  the  Indians
rst  run  against  the  Athletics  in  29
innings.  They  hadnt  scored  against
them since the ninth inning of an 8-5
loss in Oakland on Aug. 18.
Ezequiel  Carrera  then  tripled  and
scored  on  a  groundout  by  Jason
Kipnis.
Donaldson  made  it  3-2  in  the
fourth, hitting  a  two-out, 3-2  pitch
from Kluber for his third homer.
Klubers  defense  deserted  him  in
the sixth. With Reddick on rst with
a  one-out  ineld  single, he  got
Donaldson  to  ground  to  third.  Jack
Hannahan  elded  the  bouncer  and
threw  to  second  to  start  a  possible
double  play, but  the  ball  went
through  second  baseman  Donalds
legs, putting  runners  on  rst  and
third.  Donald  was  charged  with  the
error  for  failing  to  get  the  low  but
accurate throw.
Derek  Norris  followed  with  an
RBI  grounder  to  rst  baseman  Matt
LaPorta, who stepped on rst for the
out.  LaPorta  turned  to  throw  to  sec-
ond  for  an  inning-ending  double
play, but instead held the ball before
throwing home, too high and too late
to get Reddick sliding in from third.
Seth  Smith  doubled  home  a  run
and  scored  on  Carters  single  in  the
seventh to make it 6-2.
Cleveland  scored  two  unearned
runs in the eighth following an error
by Donaldson at third.
Kluber  struck  out  a  career-high
seven without issuing a walk over six
innings.

HOUSTON    Hunter  Pence  hit  a
three-run  homer  and  Joaquin  Arias
drove in two with a triple to help the
San Francisco Giants to a 6-4 win over
the  Houston  Astros  on  Wednesday
night.
Pence has been a nightmare for the
Astros since they traded him away in
July 2011, hitting four homers in just
seven  games  against  his  former  team
with the Phillies and Giants.
The  Giants  had  a  1-0  lead  before
Pences 19th homer pushed the lead to
4-0  and  elicited  the  loudest  cheers  of
the night from the sparse crowd. 
The announced attendance was just
13,207, the smallest crowd in the his-
tory  of  Houstons  12-year-old  ball-
park. The previous record-low came a
night before as the Astros struggle to
get  fans  out  to  see  this  team  that  has
the worst record in the majors.
Houston  cut  the  lead  to  1  before
Arias triple in the sixth inning, which
came  after  an  error  by  the  Astros,
pushed the advantage to 6-3.
Angel  Pagan  hit  a  leadoff  double,
advanced  to  third  on  a  sacrice  bunt
and  scored  on  a  single  by  Pablo
Sandoval to give San Francisco a 1-0
lead.  Buster  Posey  walked  before
Pences  shot  to  left-center  of  Dallas
Keuchel (1-7) pushed the lead to 4-0. 
Chris Snyder doubled in the second
inning and scored on a two-out single
by Brandon Barnes to cut the lead to
4-1.  Snyder  slid  in  behind  Posey  to
beat the throw home. 
Jose  Altuve  singled  and  stole  sec-
ond  base  in  the  third  inning  before
scoring  after  consecutive  singles  by
Tyler  Greene  and  Brett  Wallace.  A
sacrice  y  by  Jimmy  Paredes  sent
Greene home and got Houston within
4-3.
A  single  by  Fernando  Martinez
chased  San  Francisco  starter  Barry
Zito, who  was  replaced  by  George
Kontos  (1-0).  Kontos  struck  out  four
in 2 2-3 scoreless innings for the win. 
Zito  yielded  seven  hits  and  three
runs in a season-low 2 1-3 innings.
Javier  Lopez  got  the  last  two  outs
for his fth save.
The loss is Houstons fourth straight
and its 11th in the last 12 games. 
Keuchel  had  retired  14  in  a  row
after  Pences  homer  before  Marco
Scutaro started the sixth inning with a
double which bounced off the wall in
left eld.
Sandoval  drew  a  walk  after  that  to
end Keuchels night. He allowed four
hits and ve runs in 5-plus innings. 
He was replaced by Mickey Storey,
who got Posey to ground into a double
play.  Pence  reached  on  an  error  by
third baseman Scott Moore before the
triple by Arias.
The y ball by Arias sailed just out
of  reach  of  leaping  left  elder
Martinez and rolled into the corner to
score  Sandoval  and  Pence  and  push
the lead to 6-3.
San  Franciscos  Guillermo  Mota,
who was activated from the restricted
list  on  Tuesday  after  serving  a  100-
game suspension for his second posi-
tive  drug  test, made  his  rst  appear-
ance since May 5 in the sixth inning.
Mota allowed a hit and a walk in 2-3
innings. 
Pence, Arias lead Giants over Astros
Giants 6, Astros 4

day, Gray said. He has more good days than bad and when he
has bad days, hes still having fun. Its contagious for the rest of
the kids as well.
While the passing game has been the staple of the Tigers offen-
sive attack the last several years, Gray said he expects to run the
ball a bit more this season. Tanner Piccolotti will get a bulk of the
carries, but expect Spain to also have a big year running the ball.
KRen is an active, elusive runner, Gray said. [Forbes] was
a very good runner. He was a quarterback who could run. KRen
is a running back playing quarterback.
Dominic DeSouza and David Smathers will anchor a big offen-
sive line for the Tigers. DeSouza is moving from right tackle to
left tackle while Smathers returns as the starting center.
The rest are young guys who played very well as freshmen and
sophomores, Gray said. Our offensive line is big and its rugged
and its powerful. [DeSouza] is 6-6, 265; left guard is 6-1, 260;
[Smathers]  is  6-foot, 205;  right  guard  in  6-foot, 220;  and  right
tackle is 6-1, 230.
While  the  offense  should  be  ne, the  big  question  mark  for
Terra  Nova  comes  on  the  defensive  side  where  Gray  will  be
replacing  nine  of  11  starters  from  a  year  ago.  Matt  Motylewski
returns as a starting linebacker and Clark Tolero will be back as a
starting cornerback.
Everybody else is a new defensive player, either a senior who
got a lot of work as a junior, or some talented juniors coming up
from the frosh-soph ranks, Gray said. Were a reasonably young
football team. At times, we play like a young team. Were consis-
tently inconsistent.
Thats  what  the  non-league  portion  of  the  schedule  is  for, to
give inexperienced players the experience they need if the Tigers
are to win their fourth-straight Bay Division title.
But Gray is looking even further than that. He knows that the
Bay  Division  champion  will  be  playing  in  the  Central  Coast
Sections Open Division, so he schedules his non-league games
accordingly.  The  Tigers  open  the  season  against  Sacred  Heart
Cathedral and St. Ignatius  the two CCS Division III nalists
from a year ago. Also on the schedule are perennial CCS teams
Pioneer and Salinas, along with Sacramento power Inderkum.
I absolutely refuse to schedule weaker teams in preseason. The
reason is, our goal, as always, is to win the PAL (Bay Division).
We need to nd out who we are and you cant do that by playing
lesser teams and racking up big wins, Gray said. If youre suc-
cessful  in  our  league, youre  going  to  end  up  playing  a WCAL
school anyway (in the playoffs). You have to get your kids to work
up to that level.  Were trying to elevate our level of play.
Our history has shown a very tough preseason contributes to
later success.

down the bats. The fences in Williamsport are 225 feet away
from the plate, all the way around the outeld. Before 2006,
the fences were at 205 feet. I think its time to move them
back even further because its obvious those distances cant
contain these kids.
To put it perspective, the right-eld fence at Aragon is only
286 feet and that is one of the shortest porches in all the
Peninsula Athletic League.
An easier solution might be to put more regulation on the
bat companies. In the wake of all the news about kids and
sports injuries, its amazing more kids arent being blasted by
comebackers off the barrels of these bats. Imagine if the ball
hit over the fence were hit directly at the pitcher or one of the
inelders? It could cause some serious damage.
Im not trying to take the fun or excitement out of the
game. I just think the stars should have to align pretty per-
fectly to hit a home run. I saw plenty of swings and hits that
should have been routine y balls  only to see them soar,
majestically, out of the park.
It should have to be tougher than that.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK  Preparing for what she knew would be her last
professional tennis tournament, Kim Clijsters  four-time Grand
Slam title winner; mother of 4-year-old Jada  devoted her effort
and energy to the U.S. Open.
Family time needed to wait a tad longer.
She was like, Why dont you come with us to go out, go for
a  walk? Im  like, Mamas  almost  done, Clijsters  said
Wednesday after her singles career ended where she wanted it to,
just not the way she hoped. So, yeah, I think shes going to be
excited to kind of have her mom around more, on a more regular
kind of basis.
Clijsters  lost  7-6  (4), 7-6  (5)  to  18-year-old  Laura  Robson  of
Britain in the second round of the U.S. Open, and will head into
retirement  after  she  nishes  playing  doubles  at  Flushing
Meadows.
Its been an incredible journey, and a lot of dreams for me have
come true because of tennis. As a little girl, I got Christmas rack-
ets under the tree and outts of Stef Graf and Monica Seles, and
I would want to wear them to bed, I was so excited, Clijsters said.
So for me to have been able to have been a part of womens ten-
nis, and on top of womens tennis for so many years  you dont
think about it when youre in it; youre kind of on automatic pilot.
... Now that I think about it, its been a crazy rollercoaster at times,
as well.
She walked away from the sport once before, in May 2007, then
returned  after  a  hiatus  of  two-plus  years.  Now  29, the  Belgian
insisted this season that she means it this time, and decided the
U.S. Open  and its hard courts that she conquered on the way
to three championships  would be her nal tournament.
Clijsters ends career
with loss at U.S. Open
be  on  offense.  Bowie  brings  with  him  the  y  sweep  from
Sacred Heart Prep and he said he has the trio of runners and an
offensive line that can execute the new game plan. 
That line is led by Kiola Mahoni, a three-year varsity play-
er.
Hes  a  physical  specimen  that  can  run  and  block, Bowie
said. And hes a team leader for us out there.
Taking  the  snaps  is  new  varsity  quarterback  Titus  Uelese.
Hell hand the ball off to Seth Humble, Tommy Cook or Oscar
Constantini  the latter two being juniors. 
Our goal is to run that offense crisp, move the ball, no mat-
ter  what  the  defense  is  doing, Bowie  said.  We  have  to  take
what  the  defense  gives  us  offensively.  If  they  do  stack  it  up,
then we have to be able to open it up.
To open thing up, Bowie said hes got a dangerous weapon
in the physically-gifted Matt Koloamatangi. He can play basi-
cally anything you want, Bowie said. I think hell be tough
for other teams to game plan for.
On defense, Bowie  said hes got himself a gem in linebacker
Michael Barragon. We think hes going to be the real deal for
us, Bowie  said.  He  hasnt  played  linebacker  much, but  his
instincts  are  incredible.  Just  watching  him  last  week  (in  a
scrimmage), he made some plays that you just cant coach. He
plays  with  an  intensity  and  re.  I  think  hes  really  going  to
shock some people this year.
Barragon is joined by Aaron Garcia at the inside linebacker
position.  Hes  the  vocal  leader, Bowie  said, the  emotional
leader of this team.
Because Bowie took over the Wildcats so late in the summer,
there  has  been  and  will  continue  to  be  a  learning  curve  for
player and coach alike. But Bowie is optimistic about the ini-
tial returns.
Guys  shock  me  every  day, Bowie  said.  And  thats  the
beauty of it. You see new things and possibilities from all the
kids. Because of the kids are working so hard, its nice to go
out  there  and  see  them  get  better.  Im  seeing  different  kids
shine.

Decor dreams take ight 
when dollhouse decorating
In  a  kids entertainment  world  of  expensive
game systems and disposable plastic toys, there
is an alternative: Make something. Play with it.
The  do-it-yourself  trend, which  embraces
projects  in  electronics, engineering  and  crafts,
dovetails  nicely  with  the  perennially  popular,
mainly  girl-driven  activity  of  decorating.  An
abundance  of  room-decorating  games  appears
online;  Girlsgogames.com  has  at  least  30
games  in  which  a  bare  space    a  witchs
house, say, or a Chinese palace or a baby nurs-
ery  can be revamped.
Making  or  redecorating  an  actual  dollhouse
in  the  real, not  virtual, world  isnt  as  easy  as
clicking  on  colors  and  furniture;  it  takes  time,
creativity, and patience. The reward? It actually
exists.  
My girls dollhouse, a $5 yard sale nd, has
four  tall  rooms  and  an  attic.  Currently, the
store-bought  Barbie  furniture  mingles  with
repainted  wooden  furniture  and  sits  on  rugs
made  from  origami  paper  and  fabric  scraps.
The  walls  are  covered  with  contact  paper  or
scrapbook  paper  or, in  one  case, white  printer
paper. That wall is a doodle wall, my 8-year-
old recently proclaimed, demonstrating its use.
I wish I lived in this house, she added. 
The house has fullled many fantasies: It has
contained  traditional  bedrooms  and  living
rooms, boutiques  and  cafes, playgrounds  and
kennels, depending  on  the  current  interest  of
the  decorator.    We  sit  down  with  whatever
paper and fabric we have around, occasionally
raiding  the  magazine  rack  or  the  bag  of  out-
grown clothing. I can participate without direct-
ing; I just take a room. I have my own bathroom
renovation dreams.
Angela Holton of Larchmont, N.Y., also got
a  dollhouse  started  and  watched  her  daughter
run with it.

his clothing and striking him on the back of
the  head  with  a  gun, according  to  a  letter
sent  by  Wagstaffe  to  South  San  Francisco
Police Chief Mike Massoni yesterday.
As  Gaines  fell  to  the  ground, a  gun  fell
from his person onto the ground close to the
teens  knee, according  to  the  letter  to
Massoni.
Before  Officer  Cabillo  could  even  man-
age to say the words dont, Mr. Gaines lift-
ed up his shoulders, began to sit up, and with
his  right  hand  reached  across  his  body
toward the firearm on the ground by his left
side. At  that  point, Officer  Cabillo  believed
that the subject was reaching for the firearm.
Officer  Cabillo  concluded  that  he  did  not
have  enough  time  to  get  to  the  firearm
before  the  subject  would, and  believed  that
once the firearm was seized by Gaines that it
would be used on the officer. Fearing for his
life, Officer  Cabillo  fired  a  shot, which  hit
the subject in the neck, Wagstaffe wrote in
the letter to Massoni.  
The  officer  immediately  started  life-sav-
ing  techniques  on  Gaines, who  died  later  at
a  hospital.  It  was  later  determined  that  the
gun Gaines was carrying, a .45 revolver, was
inoperable due to the absence of a firing pin.
An  autopsy  showed  Gaines  had  cocaine,
methamphetamine  and  amphetamine  in  his
blood.  Both  marijuana  and  methampheta-
mine pills were also recovered from his per-
son upon removal of his clothing, according
to the District Attorneys Office.
Cabillo  has  been  on  paid  administrative
leave  since  the  incident  and  will  not  face
criminal charges.
Friends  of  Gaines  and  his  family
expressed  disappointment  in  the  district
attorneys findings yesterday.
It  is  unbelievable, said  family  friend
Georgeann Farrar. Seriously, I dont think it
is justified at all.
Farrar, a  family  friend  for  10  years  who
visited with the teen earlier in the day before
he  was  shot, said  Gaines  had  some  troubles
but should not have been killed.
He  lived  with  Piper, who  resides  near  the
scene of the shooting.
Piper  and  Gaines mother, Rachel  Guido-
Red, had  been  planning  a  speakout  and
march  at  the  gas  station  Sept.  20, which
would have been his 16th birthday.
We want to make sure this man, the offi-
cer  who  shot  Derrick, will  not  be  on  the
streets.  We  want  his  job, and  I  want  him
behind  bars, Guido-Red  wrote  in  a  media
advisory  announcing  the  planned  march
Tuesday  before  the  District  Attorneys
Office announced its findings yesterday.
Family  attorney  John  Burris  could  not  be
reached  for  comment  yesterday.  Burris, a
civil rights attorney, is famous for represent-
ing  the  family  of  Oscar  Grant, slain  by  a
BART police officer in 2009. Grants family
was  awarded  millions  in  two  separate  civil
suits.
Wagstaffe  sent  the  letter  to  Massoni  yes-
terday explaining the offices findings.
It is my conclusion that the use of lethal
force  under  the  circumstances  encountered
by  Officer  Cabillo  on  that  date, although
tragic, was justifiable pursuant to the provi-
sions of California Penal Code Section 196,
Wagstaffe wrote in the letter to Massoni.
Cabillo  noticed  that  Gaines  continued  to
make  furtive  gestures  with  his  hands  in  his
waist area at the gas station on Westborough
and  Gellert  boulevards.  Cabillo  was  suspi-
cious  that  the  decedent  was  hiding  some
type  of  contraband, such  as  drugs  or
weapons, due to Gaines furtive gestures and
evasive  movements, in  an  attempt  to  avoid
the officer, according to Wagstaffes letter.
Gaines  and  his  friend  Remy  Carrillo  kept
looking  over  their  shoulders  at  the  officer,
causing Cabillo to become increasingly sus-
picious, according to the letter.
Minutes  later, Cabillo  shot  Gaines  in  the
neck  as  the  teen  was  reaching  for  the  .45,
according to the letter.
Multiple  witnesses  corroborated  the  offi-
cers telling of the story, according to the let-
ter.
After  Gaines death, officials  with  the
National  Association  for  the  Advancement
of Colored People rallied at the scene of the
teens  shooting  to  protest  police  brutality
and harassment.

We  won;  hes  there, she  said  Tuesday
just before getting on a flight to London. 
Joe Wise was a swimmer prior to his diag-
nosis. His passion, however, was baseball. It
was  while  playing  baseball  that  his  parents
noticed  Joe  Wise  was  running  funny.  The
family took him to the doctor. It took about
six  months  and  many  incorrect  diagnoses
before the family was given the diagnosis of
mitochondrial disease. It actually resulted in
the  doctors  testing  Joes  younger  brother
who also has the muscular disorder.  
While  the  diagnosis  was  devastating,
Marie Wise said the family made a choice to
make their boys lives as normal as possible.
Running  was  out  but  swimming  could  still
work.  Joe  Wise  also  has  asthma, which  is
actually why his mom originally pushed him
into  the  sport.  She  had  learned  many
Olympic  swimmers  had  asthma  but  that  the
steam  from  the  pool  helped.  Despite  not
always enjoying the sport, Joe Wise was fast
from  a  young  age, his  mom  recalled.  After
watching another local swimmer compete in
Olympic  trials, Joe  Wise  was  excited  about
the sport. 
While  a  student  at  Sacred  Heart
Preparatory School in Atherton, Wise got his
chance to compete in the Beijing Paralympic
Games, an  international  multi-sport  event
where  athletes  with  a  physical  disability
compete.  The  games  are  held  immediately
after  the  Olympic  Games.  He  was  15, the
youngest  swimmer  there, at  the  time  and
placed fifth in the 400-meter freestyle. 
Just  getting  there  in  the  first  place  was  a
challenge.  As  a  result  of  the  disorder, Joe
Wise  uses  a  ventilator  twice  a  day    at
night  when  he  sleeps  and  during  the  day
when he naps. Marie Wise attributes the help
from  everyone  who  has  supported  her  son
and  family  as  getting  him  this  far.  Doctors,
coaches, family  members  and  schools  have
all played a part, she said. 
Joe  Wise  is  a  sophomore  at  Loyola
University  in  Maryland  this  year  studying
political  science  and  communication  with  a
hope of becoming a disability rights lawyer.
Training  was  particularly  difficult  for  the
2012 games as Joe Wise was struggling with
his diagnosis earlier this year. With the sup-
port of so many, Marie Wise is just happy to
see her son compete. And she certainly will
have  a  chance  to  see  him  in  lots  of  events.
Joe Wise will compete in the 200 individual
medley, 400  freestyle, 100  freestyle, 100
breaststroke and 100 butterfly this year start-
ing today and running through Sept. 6. 
Hes  outlived  his  expected  life.  He  has
amazing  focus  and  courage, said  Marie
Wise.

WISE
THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 2012
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A matter that is quite 
meaningful to you is likely to be resolved to your 
advantage, yet you might still think you didnt get 
enough. Dont get greedy.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Youll think far more 
highly of yourself if you dont modify your views just 
to placate another. Be your own person at all times, 
and let the chips fall as they may. 
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- When it comes to an 
issue that could advance your work or career, dont 
broadcast your intentions in advance. If you do so, a 
competitor who steals your ideas could beat you out.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be on guard if you 
are in the company of two friends who are having a 
disagreement, so that youre not put in the middle. 
Whichever side you choose will get you in trouble.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your fnancial affairs 
could turn out favorably, provided you are prudent 
in the management of your funds. Dont let a good 
margin get out of hand.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Do not pepper your 
thoughts with reasons why something cant be done. 
Instead, focus your imagination on positive elements 
regarding ways to accomplish your purposes.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you are able to 
separate the wheat from the chaff, this can be a 
productive day for you. Dont devote more time to the 
insignifcant than to the benefcial and rewarding.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- When involved in a 
group endeavor, single out one person who is shy 
and hanging back. Youre the one who can get him or 
her to join in and enjoy what is going on.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Although things in 
general are favorable for you, nothing is likely to be 
handed to you on a silver platter. What you get must 
be acquired by your own merit.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- By being methodical 
and practical, the possibilities for fulflling your aims 
will be substantially enhanced. Dont let opportunities 
of great potential go unfulflled.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You must be able to 
recognize the difference between a good value judg-
ment and a poor one in order to be successful. Dont 
waste time on that which yields sparse rewards.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Although you might be in-
clined to think otherwise, someone with whom youre 
involved will be far more considerate and tolerant 
than you are. Look at yourself realistically.

nity events. We invite you to visit our Informa-
tion Booth located between Hillcrest and Taylor

to Crpes at Millbrae Art & Wine Festival
W
hether youre in the mood for an old-fashioned corndog, a 
Middle Eastern medley or an organic green smoothie, there 
will be food options aplenty at the Millbrae Art & Wine Festival, 
September 1-2, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Broadway.
A couple of favorite Millbrae eateries will set up shop on Broad-
way amidst twenty other vendors serving up fabulous favorful 
fare. Boiling Bay Chinese restaurant will cook up mini skewers of 
tender barbequed beef, chicken and lamb, as well as marinated pork 
cooked into delicate rice pancakes and bite-size popcorn chicken. 
Leonardos Deli will fll sourdough buns with Italian sausage, 
Polish sausage or chicken breast, topped off with grilled peppers 
and onions. Their sausages are made by Millbraes popular butcher 
shop, Papes Meats.
Spiced meats also take center stage at Dukes Wrap Delight, 
where classic Greek beef-and-lamb gyros are served alongside their 
American counterpartsPhilly cheesesteaks. Vegetarians will de-
light in their pitas flled with crispy falafels, tahini, cucumber and 
tomatoes. Gyros are also on the menu at Gourmet Faire, as well as 
key-lime-marinated fried calamari accompanied by lime-watercress 
pesto. Succulent cheesesteak sandwiches and fried calamari are 
featured at Aroma Concessions as well.
Legendary East Bay gourmet Mike Hustlar makes no beans about 
naming his most popular item the giant bad-ass sausage. It takes 
a giant appetite to tackle this half-pound of smoked pork and beef 
with grilled onions and sauerkraut stuffed into a substantial roll. 
He also offers a corndog for more moderate appetites.
The friendly folks at Earthly Delights are serious about their 
selection of succulent sandwiches, cooking up Philly cheesesteaks, 
Italian garlic chicken sandwiches, Cajun chicken sandwiches, and 
barbecued pork sandwiches, as well as addictive Parmesan-garlic 
fries.
Despite its dessert-y name, Sweet Delights has garnered a follow-
ing for hand-dipped foot-long corn dogs and succulent sausages. 
They do deliver the sweets, though, with fuffy gourmet funnel 
cakes topped with fresh strawberries, bananas or mango and a 
dollop of whipped cream.
People line up at Uncle Bills Gourmet Corndogs for one item and 
one item only. They say the batter is so light its like eating crisp-
crusted, fresh corn bread around a plump gourmet hot dog.
Asian food afcionados appreciate the variety of barbecue items at 
Saigon BBQ. Customers can choose either the delicately seasoned 
chicken or pork on a skewer, which come served Vietnamese-style 
in a baguette sandwich with pickled carrots, cucumber, cilantro, 
and jalapeo; with rice vermicelli noodles in a sweet-and-sour 
salad; or over garlic noodles.
The barbecue chicken at Sonoma Teriyaki has the distinctive 
Japanese sweet-saltiness of teriyaki, presented on a skewer along-
  Millbrae Art & Wine Festival  5
side rice, carrots and broccoli, or in a sandwich. 
Meatless options include chow mein and fried 
rice with vegetables.
The chicken and pork at Thai Stick have the 
distinctive garlicky, sweet n sour essence of 
Thai barbecue. Served with noodles or rice, they 
come either in a bowl or a wrap.
Speaking of all things wrapped, Lemoine 
Crperie offers the French version with savory 
crpes flled with ham, bacon, cheese or spinach, 
and sweet ones stuffed with delicious combina-
tions like cherries and cream cheese, peaches 
and whipped cream orfor the little Franois or 
Franoise in all of usNutella.
And for something completely different, check 
out the Silly Spuds fried up by the family-run 
Manor Coffee Shop in San Franciscos West Portal 
neighborhood. Like a giant spiral French fry made 
of an entire potato, theyre practically a meal in 
themselves when accompanied by one of the 14 
seasonings including bacon-cheese, barbecue, 
Parmesan and pizza.
A summer street fair wouldnt be complete with-
out plenty of corn. Ear-Good Corn Roaster offers 
bi-color ears served just roasted and on the husk 
with their own handle for easy eating.
Olde Tyme Kettle Corn satisfes the salty-sweet 
tooth with the classic snack that will never go out 
of style. Its the perfect stroll-around snack!
In the September sun, just about everybody is 
craving something cool and sweet. Kurlander 
Soft Serve answers the call with frozen yogurt 
in tempting favors from chocolate and vanilla to 
butter pecan and pia colada.
How Ya Bean is also a great stop for cooling 
downand powering up. The super healthy 
Organic Green Drink is a smoothie made from 
apples, grapefruit, kale, baby spinach, collard 
greens, chard, and fax. For folks looking for a 
little drama in their cup, Volcano Splash drinks, 
offered in Cherry Blast and Blueberry Lemonade 
favors, are fruit juice mixed with frozen carbon 
dioxide. They look like science experiments, but 
taste delicious.
