The show is certainly going on.
Two years after the owners of Redwood
Citys historic Fox Theatre brought the venue
out of foreclosure, Eric and Lori Lochtefeld
are helping the nancially-challenged theater
company that performs there keep the curtain
from coming down.
The Lochtefelds are pouring several hun-
dreds of thousands when all is said and done,
they said, into Broadway By the Bay, address-
ing its immediate debt and buying the non-
prots next show. The couple have also
joined the board of directors to help restruc-
ture the 47-year-old group and expand its
offerings to span the Fox Theatre and San
Mateo Performing Arts Center.
We felt very strongly that Broadway By
the Bay should not become yet another casu-
alty of the recession, Lori Lochtefeld said in
a prepared statement. As with the Fox, we
felt compelled to act some things are just
worth saving and this beloved company is one
of the Bay Areas true artistic treasures.
In February, the Peninsula theater staple
reached out to the public for help erasing a
decit chalked up in part to family-friendly
ticket pricing not fully covering production
costs and the economys impact on the arts
community nationwide. The theater shot for a
$500,000 fundraising goal and, by May, the
SOS-Save Our Shows effort was on track,
according to then-executive director Jim
Gardia. In July, however, Gardia and the
treasurer were out and Broadway By the Bay
announced a multi-month restructuring effort.

County fair breaks
attendance record
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Two years after the San Mateo County Fair shifted its run to
early summer, organizers say the annual mix of carnival rides
and exhibits not to mention the always popular pig races
drew more crowds and entries than ever.
The two-year averages in attendance and competitive entries
is the highest its been in decades, exceeding expectations after
a 2011 fair that broke records.
Attendance was up 30 percent over last years numbers and
those werent too shabby, either. In 2011, paid attendance was
up 40 percent and overall total fair revenue increased 28 per-

Two men charged with
staging reality TV robbery
INDIANA, Pa. Police have charged
two out-of-state men with robbing two
other men in western Pennsylvania by
claiming they were recording a video for
a reality TV show called You Just Got
Robbed.
Police in Indiana, Pa., tell the
Associated Press the incident happened
about 1:20 a.m. and that the suspects
apparently attend a nearby technical
school. Theyre identied as 21-year-old
Randall Smith, of Temple Hills, Md., and
18-year-old Artie Goodwine, of
Memphis, Tenn.
Police say one of the men put the vic-
tims into headlocks while the other
recorded the robbery in which $20
was taken from one of the victims on
a cellphone.

three years in creek found
HORICON, N.Y. A camera lost in a
creek in New Yorks Adirondacks for
three years is being returned thanks to

who studied pictures on its memory card.
John Noerr of Poultney, Vt., found the
camera in July. The Post-Star of Glens
Falls reports that the cameras memory
card had 581 photos Noerr was able to
study.
Many of the photos looked like they
were taken in New York City. One
showed a woman sitting in front of a
house numbered 327. Another showed a
street sign reading 3rd Street.
Noerr used Google to find the
Brooklyn neighborhood, tax records to
nd the buildings owner and social
media to contact the family.
Kissing protest follows
arrest in northern Mexico

after a woman objected to him kissing his
female companion in public has prompt-
ed a kiss-in protest in a conservative
Mexico city.
An ofcial of the northern city of Leon
says authorities are investigating police
who arrested the man, identified as
Manuel Berumen.
City spokesman Jesus Montano says
Berumens 12-hour arrest and 850-peso
($65 ne) ne for insulting police and
arguing with the woman who complained
appear to have been unjustied.
Montano said Monday there is no law
against public kissing in Leon.
About a dozen couples gathered in the
same spot Sunday for a public kiss-in
to protest the arrest.
Police: 911 caller
seeking ride for beer arrested

Not 911.

after he allegedly called emergency dis-
patchers at least nine times Saturday.
Most of the calls were hang-ups, but a
dispatcher said at least once, the caller
asked if someone could send him a ride
so he could buy beer.
Police Ofcer Seneca Shield said he
told Allen Troy Brooks that if he cooper-
ated, he would just receive a citation. But
authorities said Brooks denied making
calls and claimed he didnt have a tele-
phone. Brooks was arrested and charged

gency situation. He was released on bond.
Fire alarm blares 15
hours at public housing
WILKINSBURG, Pa. A re alarm
that blared for more than 15 hours at a

has nally been shut off.

began ashing and a high-pitched screech
began sounding Sunday evening when a
resident burned some popcorn.
Allegheny County Housing Authority
ofcials say the alarm was turned off
Monday morning.
Building president Bud Joyce says the
delay occurred because the housing
authority began managing the building in
May and didnt have a key to the room
where the alarms control panel is located
because the room also contains access to
a banks automatic teller machine.

At least one new face will join the San
Mateo County Board of Education as Memo
Morantes has decided not to run for re-elec-
tion.
The November election has a few more
school ofcial hopefuls and one less name as
the deadline to apply quickly approaches.
It appears the area seven representative on
the San Mateo County Board of Education
will be the most interesting this November.
Memo Morantes currently holds the seat,
which includes Las Lomitas, Menlo Park City,
Portola Valley, Ravenswood City and
Woodside Elementary school districts, as well
as portions of Sequoia Unified School
District. So far two people have led to run
Joe Ross and Jo-Ann Sockolov. Primary care
physician Alvin Zachariah previously led to
run but has since withdrawn his name.
Morantes recently decided not to run again but
did put his support behind Sockolov.
Sockolov serves as the executive director
for the Redwood City Education Foundation.
Ross, who ran for the San Mateo County
Community College District Board of
Trustees in November, is
an educational nonprofit
director who lives in
Menlo Park. Morantes had
an unsuccessful bid for the
District Four seat on the
Board of Supervisors in
June.
Morantes pointed to
Sockolovs knowledge
about the issues and expe-
rience already working
with education leaders throughout the area as
reasons he decided to support her.
Atherton resident Sockolov provided an
interesting twist to the election already having
previously pulled papers to possibly run
simultaneously for City Council. Shes since
decided to put 100 percent of her energy
behind running for the school board.
The Political Reform Act does not prohib-
it an individual from holding multiple public
positions, either within a single agency or
different agencies, according to the
California Fair Practices Commission web-
site. In addition, there are no provisions of
the act which bar a person from running for
more than one elective office in a single
election or from serving in more than one
elected position at one time.
Four seats on the Board of Education total
held by Rod Hsiao, Jim Cannon, Ted
Lempert and Morantes are up for re-elec-
tion. So far, all three have led to run for re-
election.
Cannon who represents area ve, which
includes the Burlingame, Hillsborough City,
Millbrae and San Bruno Park elementary
school districts, and parts of San Mateo Union
and Lempert who represents area six,
which includes the Belmont-Redwood
Shores, Redwood City and San Carlos ele-
mentary school districts, and part of Sequoia
both ran without opposition in 2008.
Hsiao, who was challenged in 2008, repre-
sents area four, which includes the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District
and parts of the San Mateo Union High
School District.
In the South San Francisco Unied School
District election, board President Judy Bush
filed for re-election. Trustee Maurice
Goodman is also up for re-election. He has yet
to le but previously said he planned to do so.
The ling deadline is Aug. 10. Candidates
have until Aug. 15 if an incumbent decides not
to run.

TRUCKEE In what is being hailed as a
major land acquisition in the Sierra Nevada,
conservation groups announced Monday they
had reached an agreement to purchase 3,000
acres of granite peaks and wildower-dotted
meadows atop Northern Californias Donner
Summit.
Under an agreement reached last week with
a court-appointed negotiator, three local non-
prots will buy the 3,000-acre Royal Gorge
property for $13.5 million.
They plan to build trails, take out fences and
open up the site to public use, now that a pro-
posed 950-home development on the property
has slipped into foreclosure.
This is the most important conservation
acquisition in the Sierra Nevada in a gen-
eration, said Tom Mooers, director of the
Nevada City-based nonprofit Sierra
Watch. Some people call it the most
important square mile in the American
West.
The area has long served as a passageway
for travelers seeking to cross the craggy
peaks, including the ill-fated Donner Party. It
also served as a trading hub for the Maidu and
Washoe tribes.

OAKLAND The caretaker of
an indoor marijuana growing oper-
ation in Oaklands Chinatown dis-
trict shot and killed a man early
Monday after the man and two oth-
ers tried to rob the operation, police
said.
The shooting occurred shortly
before 5 a.m. after three men tried
to barge into a duplex about two
blocks from the Oakland police
headquarters downtown. The care-
taker killed one of the suspects after
they fatally shot his watchdog,
police said. Ofcers responded to
reports of gunre, Oakland Police
Lt. Kevin Wiley told reporters.
Upon arrival, they found one man
deceased. . It appears to be a home
invasion robbery.
Investigators have found the gun
apparently used by the caretaker
and another weapon that apparent-
ly belonged to one of the robbers.
The caretaker was taken into cus-
tody for questioning. It is not
known if he will face any criminal
charges, authorities said.
Investigators are also looking
into whether the marijuana grow is
a legal operation after the caretaker
gave police some documents, said
Officer Johnna Watson, a police
spokeswoman.
We have to verify if the docu-
ments are legal and valid, said
Watson, who added that police also
are trying to obtain search warrants
to investigate other parts of the res-
idence.
Theres a lot more work we need
to follow up on, Wiley said.
The names of the caretaker and
the dead suspect have not been
released.
Police also were combing
through Chinatown and searching
surrounding areas for the other two
suspects, both described as Asian
males, as officers blocked the
entrance to a nearby well-traveled
tunnel leading to neighboring
Alameda.

The man is described as white, in his 40s,
with no facial hair, approximately 5 feet 11

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
The family of a San Jose man who went
missing in Fremont a week ago was fanning
out on the Peninsula Monday after receiving
information that their loved one could be in
the San Carlos area.
Jessie Cuevas, 24, was last seen the after-
noon of July 30 when he walked away from
a landscaping job in the area of Decoto Road
and Paseo Padre Parkway in Fremont.
His sister Isabel Sanchez said he suffers
from schizophrenia and tends to wander off
by himself. Cuevas lives in San Jose, and
Sanchez said last week that she was hoping
he would try to head home, but so far he has
not been found.
However, Sanchez said, the family has
spoken with a man who claims to have given
Cuevas a ride to San Carlos. The man said he
had dropped Cuevas off on Washington
Street after giving him a shirt and a sweater,
according to Sanchez.
Cuevas was barefoot, she said.
The family was in San Carlos Monday and
spoke with a woman who said she had seen
Cuevas on Sunday night
near the Carlos Club on
El Camino Real.
She noticed him
because he didnt have
any shoes, Sanchez said.
Family members gath-
ered at the Home Depot
in San Carlos Monday
afternoon to discuss their
approach to finding
Cuevas, Sanchez said.
San Mateo County sheriffs Sgt. James
Tanner said the Sheriffs Office was notified
around noon Monday that Cuevas might be
in the area. Deputies are keeping an eye out
for him, Tanner said.
Cuevas is described as a 190-pound
Hispanic man who is 5 feet 9 inches tall and
has brown hair, hazel eyes and a beard. He
was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, blue
jeans, work boots and a white bandanna on
his head.
Anyone with information on Cuevas
whereabouts is asked to call Fremont police
at (510) 790-6800 ext. 3.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 30-year-old Hayward man authorities
say nabbed more than $20,000 in jewelry
from a Redwood City home in February was
sentenced to 14 years in prison and ordered
to repay that amount to his victim.
The prison term is the same deal Nghia
Quoc Nguyen declined prior to trial. He
faced up to 34 years, but after three days
into jury trial, changed his mind and plead-
ed no contest to felony counts of residen-
tial burglary and possessing stolen proper-
ty.
However, he received a low term of two
years which was doubled and an extra 10
years for having two prior convictions.
Nguyen was arrested after Redwood City
police responded to calls by neighbors that a
man later identified as him and a still-
unknown accomplice were seen entering a
home on the 400 block of Tiller lane Feb. 10.
They texted the victim at
work who immediately
started driving back
home. The neighbors
snapped a photo of the
gray BMW the men left
in and the license plate
led back to the Hayward
address of Nguyens
mother.
Authorities say
Nguyen and the man entered the house
through the garage and took more than
$20,000 in jewelry from a drawer in an
upstairs bedroom. The victim also reported
losing an envelope filled with cash she had
received from her mother for Chinese New
Year.
Nguyen, who has been in custody in lieu
of $500,000 bail, receives credit of 260 days
against his sentence. He was also ordered to
pay $24,733 in restitution.

STATE/NATION 7
State Senate approves
Browns banking regulator
SACRAMENTO The state Senate on
Monday approved Gov. Jerry Browns nominee
to head the department that oversees banking,
nancial and consumer regulations.
Jan Owen, who has strong ties to the industry,
was approved as commissioner of the California
Department of Corporations on a 35-2 Senate
vote after serving in that role since January.
Owen formerly led a trade association that
fought tighter lending restrictions before the
subprime mortgage crisis exploded, and was an
executive with Washington Mutual when the
now-failed bank was among the most aggres-
sive marketers of loans to high-risk borrowers.
Owen, a Democrat, also was named in a con-
gressional inquiry into whether lawmakers and
certain executives received preferential treat-
ment for home loans. She was not accused of
wrongdoing.
After the Democratic governor named Owen
to the $143,000-a-year position last December,
consumer groups said they were concerned but
would watch Owens decisions carefully.

By David A. Lieb
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Sarah
Palin is mounting an aggressive
campaign in Missouri in televi-
sion and radio ads, in automated
telephone calls, even serving barbe-
cued pork sandwiches at a rural
political picnic. Shes urging resi-
dents to vote for Sarah Sarah
Steelman, one of three Republicans
in a prickly U.S. Senate primary.
Fresh off a resounding Republican
runoff victory by Ted Cruz in Texas,
Palin and the Tea Party movement
now are trying to capitalize in pri-
maries this month in Missouri,
Wisconsin and Arizona. But they
may pose a more difcult test than in
Texas, where the charismatic Cruz
waged an outsiders campaign
against the Republican establish-
ments pick of Lt. Gov. David
Dewhurst.
In Tuesdays primary in Missouri,
conservative loyalties are fractured
among a trio of
candidates all
preaching a
smaller-govern-
ment message
while splitting
the endorse-
ments of conser-
vative celebri-
ties. In
Wisconsin, the
would-be Tea Party beneciaries are
up against a political icon former
four-term Gov. Tommy Thompson.
In all three states, millionaire busi-
nessmen are self-financing cam-
paigns focused more on a Main
Street message of job-creation than a
direct Tea Party appeal.
The uncertain outlook shows
that winning as a Tea Party candi-
date still takes a combination of
factors, even in states where
Republicans are conservative and
getting more so. Holding sole
claim to the Tea Party label is a big
help, along with strong campaign
skills and vulnerable opponents.
Few hopefuls manage to have all
three.
The voters in Missouri are con-
servative like Texas, so I certainly
hope its going to help, Steelman
said a day after Cruzs victory on
July 31, as she passed out newly
printed iers featuring Palins face
and Steelmans 12-point platform to
a lunchtime crowd at a Jefferson
City diner.
She and other Republican candi-
dates have taken notice of Cruzs
powerful coalition featuring Palin
and other Tea Party stars such as
South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint and
Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul; talk-show
personalities Glenn Beck and Sean
Hannity; and financially stacked
political groups such as the Club for
Growth and FreedomWorks for
America. But she, and the multiple
conservative contenders in the other
states, are splitting the key endorse-
ments with their opponents, creating
a murkier picture for voters.
Tea Party focused on coming GOP Senate primaries
By Philip Elliott
WASHINGTON A trio of
female firsts and three former
GOP presidential contenders
were among the first speakers dis-
closed Monday for the
Republican National Convention
at the end of the month in Tampa,
Fla.
The convention schedule is
packed with high-profile names
to fire up divergent wings of the
Republican Party, from social
conservatives to fiscal hawks.
They will speak before Mitt
Romney accepts the presidential
nomination.
Convention leaders were not
ready to announce the keynote
speaker, a prime speaking slot
that has the potential to catapult a
rising member of the party to
national prominence.
South Carolina Gov. Nikki
Haley and New Mexico Gov.
Susana Martinez, the first female
governors of their states, are
among party leaders slated to
address the gathering that begins
Aug. 27. Martinez has the addi-
tional distinction of being the
countrys first female Hispanic
governor.
Former Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice, the first black
female to hold that job, is also
scheduled to speak.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona
was set to speak, as well as a one-
time rival, former Arkansas Gov.
Mike Huckabee. The two, along
with Romney, vied for the 2008
presidential nomination. McCain
outlasted Romney and the former
Baptist pastor in the primary
campaign.

WASHINGTON With Syrian
diplomacy all but dead, the Obama
administration is shifting its focus
on the civil war away from political
transition and toward helping the
rebels defeat the Syrian regime on
the battleeld.
The U.S. still wants to avoid any
military involvement, banking on a
complicated policy of indirect assis-
tance to the rebels and hope that the
ragtag alliance of militias can demor-
alize President Bashar Assads better-
armed forces and
end the war with-
out far greater
casualties.
Its a scenario
analysts see as
unlikely, even as
the opposition
gains ground in
A l e p p o ,
Damascus and
elsewhere, and as the cadre of high-
level defections from Assads gov-
ernment grows. Prime Minister Riad
Hijab became the latest to abandon
Assad on Monday, rebels said.
The defections are the latest indi-
cation that Assad has lost control of
Syria and that the momentum is
with the opposition forces and the
Syrian people, White House
spokesman Tommy Vietor said.
The regime is crumbling, State
Department spokesman Patrick
Ventrell said.
In Aleppo, the rebels are exceed-
ing the expectations of military
experts. Despite intense bombard-
ment from warplanes, theyve now
withstood two weeks of regime
counterattacks and are clawing
toward the city center.

OAK CREEK, Wis. Before he
strode into a Sikh temple with a
9mm handgun and multiple maga-
zines of ammunition, Wade Michael
Page played in white supremacist
heavy metal bands with names such
as Denite Hate and End Apathy.
The bald, heavily tattooed bassist
was a 40-year-old Army veteran
who trained in psychological war-
fare before he was demoted and dis-
charged more than a decade ago.
A day after he killed six worship-
pers at the suburban Milwaukee
temple, fragments of Pages life
emerged in public records and inter-
views. But his motive was still
largely a mystery. So far, no hate-
lled manifesto
has emerged,
nor any angry
blog or ranting
F a c e b o o k
entries to
explain the
attack.
Oak Creek
Police Chief
John Edwards
suggested Monday that investiga-
tors might never know for certain
why the lone attacker targeted a
temple full of strangers.
We have a lot of information to
decipher, to put it all together before
we can positively tell you what that
motive is if we can determine
that, Edwards said.
Page, who was shot to death by
police, joined the Army in 1992 and
was discharged in 1998. He was
described Monday by the Southern
Poverty Law Center as a frustrated
neo-Nazi who had long been active
in the obscure underworld of white
supremacist music.
Page wrote frequently on white
supremacist websites, describing
himself as a member of the
Hammerskins Nation, a skinhead
group rooted in Texas that has off-
shoots in Australia and Canada,
according to the SITE Monitoring
Service, a Maryland-based private
intelligence rm that searches the
Internet for terrorist and other
extremist activity.
In online forums, Page promoted
his music while interacting with
other skinheads. He posted 250
messages on one site between
March 2010 and the middle of this
year, and appeared eager to recruit
others.

Ever since they arrived in the
U.S. as farmers and lumber mill
workers in the late 19th century,
Sikhs have struggled with how lit-
tle Americans knew about the
faith.
In 1907, a mob in Bellingham,
Wash., who called Sikhs the
Hindus, ran them out of town.
(Bellingham officials apologized
formally 100 years later.)
Over time, they established
themselves in the United States
with major temples from Boston to
California. Still, they remained a
small, often misunderstood com-
munity, readily identiable by their
turbans. During the 1970s Iranian
hostage crisis, Americans often
mistook Sikhs for Iranians.
Vandals attacked some temples
after the Oklahoma City bombing,
committed by white U.S. Army
veteran Timothy McVeigh.
So when the Sept. 11 attacks
occurred, the Sikh community
immediately began organizing,
working closely with U.S. Arabs
and Muslims on domestic anti-ter-
ror policies that respect civil rights.
When you walk out, all eyes are
on you. You get used to it, but its
tough, said Vishavjit Singh, a Sikh
software engineer from White
Plains, N.Y. Ive had people call-
ing me Osama and saying, Go
back home.
The massacre Sunday at the sub-
urban Milwaukee Sikh temple left
six Sikhs dead and several people
wounded, including a police of-
cer who responded to the scene.
Authorities have identified the
gunman as Wade Michael Page, a
40-year-old Army veteran
described by civil rights groups as
a neo-Nazi and white supremacist.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
The Los Angeles Times
I
n 2004, California voters approved
Proposition 69, which authorized the
collection of DNA evidence not just
from convicted offenders and people arrested
for homicide or sex crimes, but from anyone
arrested on suspicion of a felony. The proles
generated from samples obtained under the
law are shared with police in other states.
This newspaper opposed the measure as
overly broad. Its one thing to build a data-
base of samples from convicted criminals,
but its quite another to keep genetic proles
of people who are arrested but ultimately
determined to be innocent of any crime. So
were heartened that the U.S. 9th Circuit
Court of Appeals has agreed to revisit its
constitutionality. A three-judge panel of the
9th Circuit upheld Proposition 69 by a 2-1
vote, but now the law will be reviewed by 11
judges. (Last week, in connection with a sim-
ilar Maryland law, Chief Justice John G.
Roberts Jr. suggested that the Supreme Court
will eventually rule on laws like the one at
issue in California.)
The law is not as outrageous or Orwellian
as some of its critics maintain. For example,
the DNA is acquired by the relatively nonin-
vasive method of a cheek swab, which is
often performed by the suspect himself. And
the resulting proles involve so-called junk
DNA, which does not include information
about the arrestees propensity to disease.
Still, the law blurs the distinction between
suspicion and guilt, and if a person is ulti-
mately not charged or not convicted, he must
take afrmative steps to have his prole
removed from the system.
In his majority opinion for the panel, Judge
Milan D. Smith Jr. asserted that DNA pro-
les, like ngerprints, are taken to ascertain
the arrestees identity. But they are also
intended to aid in the investigation of other
crimes, past and future.
As soon as the prole enters the system,
authorities can check it against proles
already in the database, including those from
samples gathered at the scenes of unsolved
crimes. If charges are dropped, an arrestee
can petition the court for expungement of his
DNA information, but expungement cant be
ordered until 180 days after the arrestees
request. If charges arent ofcially dismissed,
the arrestee must wait to request an expunge-
ment until expiration of the statute of limita-
tions for the crime for which he was arrested.
The appeals court panel found that this
system did not unduly infringe on the 4th
Amendment privacy rights of the plaintiffs,
who included protesters arrested during polit-
ical demonstrations. The majority made
much of the fact that the plaintiffs had been
arrested on probable cause that they had
committed a crime. But, as dissenting Judge
William A. Fletcher pointed out, the relevant
transaction occurs when the suspects prole
is matched against others on the database to
determine if he is implicated in other crimes.
For those crimes, Fletcher said, there is no
probable cause.
This might seem like legal hair-splitting,
but it highlights Proposition 69s troubling
purpose: to expand the DNA database to
include the names of people who under the
law are as innocent as those who have never
been arrested. That goes a step too far.
Openness and fairness
Editor,
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi are calling
for full disclosure from Mitt Romney. I
actually agree with them. We should have
full disclosure from all elected officials at
all levels.
Far too many elected officials start out as
near paupers and magically become million-
aires. There are many millionaires in office
today. Some had it going in and some made
it while in office. Even now we are reading
about Harry Reid authorizing a deal with his
sons client, a Chinese power company. Hes
not the only one. Former House Speaker
Dennis Hastert is among those who benefit-
ted from the power of his office. Many on
both sides of the aisle do this. Lets have all
elected officials make their tax returns pub-
lic, right on down to dog catcher.

A disgrace
Editor,
Regarding the story, Doctors dementia
called hoax in the Aug. 4-5 edition of the
Daily Journal, of course it was a hoax,
William Ayres is an expert in this field and
it was his idea to be found incompetent to
avoid another trial. Id like to point out that
he was first investigated by the San Mateo
Police Department in 1987 not 2007 when
Judge Marta Diaz worked for James P. Fox
in our District Attorneys Office. I know for
a fact that several parents have asked our
Board of Supervisors to rescind the Lifetime
Achievement Award which was given to
Ayres in 2002, I also have personally
requested that the Board of Supervisors
rescind the award, I just recently found out
that James P. Fox and John Maltbie also
approved the award. Mr. Fox knew about
the investigation in 1987 and he approved
an award on behalf of our county anyway.
What a disgrace.
Best of luck to all victims and their loved
ones.

Facebook no longer the darlin
Editor,
Facebook is no longer the darling of the
Internet-using, keyboard-hammering and
time-wasting crowd. One wonders why. I
for one have closed my account. More and
more folks are finally getting the idea.
Facebook is the amazing easy-to-pick data
cherry of the government, and we do not
like it one bit. My prediction is simple: the
insatiable demand for personal data from
governments and authorities will kill
Facebook. Unless that is, Facebook starts
and maintains a real aggressive campaign to
keep our data private and prevent informa-
tion snooping.
Case in point, the NSA is now suggesting
that it manage the Internet to save infra-
structure. You and I have of course nothing
to fear; law-abiding citizens should wel-
come that suggestion. Perhaps you want to
recall that at one time taxes were also tem-
porary and that you were not forced to buy
medical insurance.

The not-so-special relationship
Editor,
The U.S. government is constantly refer-
ring to a special relationship with Britain.
Why? Is it because we fought together in
World War II? It was not our British
brethren who gave us our country, it was the
French. Without the king of France giving
arms to Benjamin Franklin for the colonial
army, it would have been impossible to
overcome the most powerful military of the
time: Britain. It was the Marquis de
Lafayettes naval blockade at Yorktown that
finished off the British for good. France,
however, is seen by most Americans as
snobby, socialist and anti-American. Not
only did France give us the United States,
but it gave us the European Union as well,
being that it was DeGaulles idea for a unit-
ed Europe that started in the 1960s. Saying
we have a special relationship with Britain
is the same as saying Britain deserves spe-
cial privileges. Why is this? Is it because we
believe we are ethnically English? It all
sounds pretty racist to me.

rst blush at least to more than hint at some
reasoning, no matter how misguided.
White supremacist. Neo-Nazi. Army veter-
an. Member of heavy mental bands with star-
tling names like Denite Hate and End
Apathy. Even without the requisite manifesto
or online rants, a picture of Page is beginning
to emerge and his motivation can be easily
led under hate even if no other details
become clear. He apparently loathed minori-
ties. The victims were non-white. Sometimes
two plus two does equal four and when it
does, those who dont t in either category
can heave a sigh of relief they dont t into
the equation.
When instead the shootings seem more
random, in a crowded movie theater by a stu-
dent with a fondness for the Joker lets say,
the incident is oftentimes more uncomfort-
able. We may not really understand the
underpinnings of racism and hatred but those
who dont easily fall into the category can
feel a little more secure. When the victims
cut across age, gender, race and every other
line, the quest for why is more fervent. It just
doesnt make any sense, we conclude. But
there must a be reason, we counter.
One L. Goh was a disgruntled former nurs-
ing student at Oikos University in Oakland.
Same goes for Seung-Hui Cho at Virginia
Tech and, the infamous standard in school
shootings, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold at
Columbine. Then there are the disgruntled
workers, the ones who coined the term
going postal or turned places of business
into places of infamy. Sometimes the killers
are angry husbands, jilted lovers or those
besieged by mental illness. Look at Jared
Loughner. Hes got the crazy eyes, right? He
had no other real reason to wish Gabby
Giffords harm. In the absence of any other
viable explanation, mental illness is often a
good catch-all even before a diagnosis is
determined.
The search for answers though often
moves beyond the individuals involved. Is it
easy access to guns? Violent video games
and cartoons? Watching adult-themed movies
at way too young an age? Dysfunctional
family dynamics? Bullying? There must be
something beyond just pure evil.
Somehow, though, we never blame other
circumstances or dynamics involved in the
crimes. Cafeterias and nursing lessons arent
suddenly outlawed for pushing shooters too
far. Political meet-and-greets arent immedi-
ately evaluated for potentially inuencing an
attack.
Knee-jerk reactions to trauma and violence
are understandable. How can society not
want to try anything within its power to pre-
vent future tragedies? But sometimes people
commit terrible acts based on reasons that
cant be legislated away. And, frankly, even
having informational tidbits like white
supremacy or harassment doesnt mean we
really know much truth at all.

NEW YORK U.S. stocks edged
higher on a day marked by uncharacter-
istic quiet following a turbulent week.
In the absence of major economic
news, stocks were riding a tailwind of
optimism from the most recent U.S. job
numbers released last week and hope for
more action by European authorities to
address that regions debt crisis.
On Monday, beleaguered stock trading
company Knight Capital Group said it
has lined up $400 million in nancing
that will allow the rm to continue to
operate. Knight was ghting for survival
after a disastrous software glitch in its
systems sent the trading of dozens of
stocks into chaos last week.
Best Buys stock soared after its
founder offered to buy the company.
The Dow Jones industrial average
closed up 21.34 points at 13,117.51. The
broader Standard & Poors 500 index
added 3.24 points to 1,394.23. The index
came within half a point of 1,400, where
it hasnt traded since May 3.
The Nasdaq index rose 22.01 points to
2,989.91.
Markets fell the rst four days of last
week after investors were disappointed
by the lack of specic action from cen-
tral banks in Europe and the U.S. to sup-
port the economy. The Dow lost 197
points from Monday through Thursday.
The Dow soared 217 points on Friday,
however, following a surprisingly strong
jobs report. The U.S. economy generated
163,000 jobs last month, the fastest pace
since February and far more than econo-
mists were expecting.
The upturn was seen as a sign that the
U.S. may be resilient enough to pull out
of a midyear slump and grow modestly,
even as the rest of the world slows down.
Investors drove markets higher Monday
on hopes that the positive momentum
will continue.
Stock indexes also rose in Europe.
Speculation has been building that the
European Central Bank will support
struggling countries like Spain and Italy
by buying bonds issued by those govern-
ments.
Germanys DAX and the CAC-40 in
France both rose a little less than 1 per-
cent. Spains IBEX 35 soared 4.4 per-
cent despite a ve-hour blackout from a
technical problem that halted trading for
much of the day.
Mutual fund managers and hedge
funds have sizable holdings in cash and
they need to put those to work, said
Richard Cripps, chief investment ofcer
for Stifel Financial. Theres optimism
over the progress made in Europe and
also constructive news from the U.S.
economy.

Big movers
By Christopher S. Rugber
WASHINGTON Ben Bernanke
wants to know if you are happy.
The Federal Reserve chairman said
Monday that gauging happiness can be
as important for measuring economic
progress as determining whether ina-
tion is low or unemployment high.
Economics isnt just about money and
material benets, Bernanke said. It is
also about understanding and promoting
the enhancement of well-being.
Bernanke and Fed policymakers rely
on reports on hiring, consumer spending
and other economic data when making
high-stakes decisions about the $15 tril-
lion U.S. economy. The Feds dual man-
date is to maintain low ination and full
employment.
We should seek better and more-
direct measurements of economic well-
being, Bernanke said Monday in a
video-taped speech
shown to a confer-
ence of economists
and statisticians in
Cambridge, Mass.
After all, promoting
well-being is the
ultimate objective of
our policy deci-
sions.
B e r n a n k e
acknowledged that many people arent
too happy right now. Unemployment
rose in July to 8.3 percent, and econom-
ic growth has slowed sharply from the
start of the year. He called the recovery
frustratingly slow when he testied to
Congress on July 17.
Aggregate statistics can mask impor-
tant information about how individual
Americans are faring, Bernanke says.
His speech Monday was the latest
foray into a relatively new specialty in
economics known as happiness stud-
ies. Bernanke attracted widespread
notice when he spoke about the econom-
ics of happiness in a May 2010 com-
mencement address at the University of
South Carolina.
In that speech, he said research has
found that once basic material needs are
met, more wealth doesnt necessarily
make people happier.
Or, as your parents always said,
money doesnt buy happiness,
Bernanke said then. Well, an economist
might reply, at least not by itself.
In his remarks Monday, Bernanke
turned to the more practical and dif-
cult task of measuring a subjective
emotion. So far, most efforts have
involved surveys in which people are
asked about whether they are happy and
what contributes to their happiness.
Those surveys have found some con-
sistent answers: physical and mental
health, the strength of family and com-
munity ties, a sense of control over ones
life, and opportunities for leisure activi-
ty.
Are you happy? Bernanke wants to know

NEW YORK Best Buys co-
founder is looking to make a buy of his
own, offering to take the electronics sell-
er private only months after leaving as the
companys chairman.
Best Buy Co. said it would consider the
offer but called it highly conditional.
And analysts are skeptical that former
Chairman Richard Schulzes opening
offer of $24 to $26 per share would get a
deal done and that it could be tricky to
line up investment rms to help pay for it.
Its the latest twist in the Minneapolis
companys struggles to stay relevant as
more people buy electronics online. Over
the past year, it has announced a major
restructuring plan and red CEO Brian
Dunn amid allegations that he had an
inappropriate relationship with a female
employee. Best Buy is trying to avoid the
fate of its rival Circuit City, which went
bankrupt in 2009, partly because of
changing shopper habits.
The offer values the company at as
much as $8.84 billion. Schulze already
has 20.1 percent of the stock in the com-
pany, so paying for the rest of shares
would mean coming up with about $6.9
billion.
Schulze resigned as chairman in May,
after Dunns departure. A company inves-
tigation found that Schulze knew about
the inappropriate relationship and failed
to alert the board or human resources.
Schulze had been expected to stay on
the board until the companys annual
shareholder meeting in June, but he
resigned unexpectedly before the meeting
and said he was exploring options for his
hefty stake in the company. Analysts had
been expecting a possible bid since that
announcement.
Best Buy founder offers to buy it, take private
WASHINGTON The government
says it expects to receive $750 million
more from the latest sale of stock held in
American International Group. The sales
are part of an effort to recoup taxpayer
money from the largest bailout of the
2008 nancial crisis.
The Treasury Department says the
banks underwriting the sale have exer-
cised their option to buy 24.6 million
AIG shares at the offering price of
$30.50 each. That brings the total from
the fourth round of sales in AIG stock to
$5.75 billion. Treasury announced last
week that it sold $5 billion in AIG stock.
Treasury says it has received $23.3
billion from four sales of AIG stock.
Treasury and the Federal Reserve
stepped in with $182 billion to rescue
New York-based AIG from collapse in
September 2008. Treasurys portion of
the bailout was $47.5 billion. With the
latest sale, AIG still owes taxpayers
about $24 billion on the original invest-
ment, according to Treasury estimates.

NOT IN THE CARDS: GIANTS ROUGHED UP BY ST. LOUIS OFFENSE, FALL 9-2 >>> PAGE 13
USA basketball routs Argentina, stays perfect
LONDON One 3-pointer after another,
Kevin Durant shot down Argentina and
perhaps the notion that defense wins champi-
onships.
This U.S. mens Olympic basketball team is
living proof that the best defense is a good
offense. The road to gold in London is built on
scores, not stops.
Durant scored 17 of his 28 points during the
Americans 42-point third quarter, turning a
one-point game into a blowout that sent the
U.S. soaring into the quarternals with a 126-
97 victory on Monday night.
Two nights after surviving their rst real
test in a 99-94 victory over Lithuania, the
Americans seemed headed for another tight
nish. Argentina shot 56 percent in the rst
half and the U.S. led just 60-59.
Minutes later, the game the last before
single-elimination play starts was effec-
tively over.
I think we did a great job of responding
from last game, Durant said. It was a tough
game and so was the rst half tonight. Guys
played together. That second half is how we
want to play.
The NBA scoring champion matched the
Argentines point total in the period, going 5-
of-6 from 3-point range,
the last one from well
beyond 25 feet. The
Americans didnt stop
shooting and scoring until
Carmelo Anthony made a
3-pointer in the nal sec-
ond of the quarter while
taking what he and the
U.S. bench right behind
him felt was a cheap shot
from Argentinas Facundo
Campazzo, setting off an exchange of words
and technical fouls.
It was too late by then for the Argentines.
They needed to get closer to the U.S. shooters
much sooner, and that was hard to do from
some of the spots where Durant was pulling
up.
The Americans (5-0) will play Australia (3-
2) in a quarternal game Wednesday.
LeBron James added 18 points, including
the Americans rst seven of the third quarter
before Durant took over. Chris Paul nished
with 17.
Were great shooting team, but in close
games sometimes youve got to go down and
get some easy ones, and I wanted the ball,

How much
is enough?
I
was driving around the East Bay last
week Union City and Fremont,
specically and couldnt help but
notice the football teams at Logan and
Washington high schools were out, in full
pads, practicing for the
upcoming season.
This led me to ask the
question: since they
appear to be starting the
season about two weeks
before schools in the
Central Coast Section
can begin, do teams in
the North Coast Section
get a jump-start on the
rest of the competition?
After talking to a cou-
ple of highly respected
county coaches, I
believe the answer is:
there is no distinct
advantage to starting practice early.
I like the way our section does it, said
Serra head coach Patrick Walsh. With an
Aug. 9 start date, you can get your team pre-
pared to win in your league.
It wasnt that long ago there were no of-
cial rules governing when CCS teams could
begin practice. A couple years ago, CCS
decided teams could practice as little or as
much as they wanted from roughly June 15 to
July 31, but then had to take approximately
two weeks off at the beginning of August
before practices for the upcoming season
could ofcially start. A dead period, if you
will.
I was teased, good-naturedly, in the PAL
as being Mr. Dead Period, said Aragon
head coach Steve Sell. Ive been advocating
a dead period for a while.
(Beginning Aug. 9 is) enough time. What
we do is not rocket science. There are still

Local coaches weigh in on start of London track
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With such a strong track and eld presence
by San Mateo County high schools, its no
surprise that many of our best were glued to
the television set as the London Olympics
turned to the track over the weekend.
And as expected, several stories were in the
spotlight.
Perhaps the biggest story of triumph to
come out of the Olympics in some time was
the accomplishment of South African sprinter
Oscar Pistorius, who became the rst double-
amputee to participate in the Olympics, run-
ning the 400-meter race.
What a great story, said Aragon track and
eld coach Frank Hunt, whos been following
the transpiring events attentively. It takes a
lot of guts to do what this man does.
Pistorius qualied for the seminals of the
400-meters with a time of 45.44, his best time
of the season, before bowing out in the semi-
nals. He did so aided by a pair of prosthetics
after suffering from bular hemimelia, con-
genital absence of the bula, in both legs.
I was just taken back, said Menlo High
School coach Jorge Chen, adding that he lives
and breathes big competitions like the ones in
London. [Pistorius] really showed the power
of the human spirit totally mind over mat-
ter. And the fact that hes doing it in such a
physical event that just really brings a lot
of other emotions and shows us what the
Olympics are all about.
Pistorius participation in the 400 hasnt
been without its share of controversy with
some saying that the South African has an
advantage over other competitors with the
articial limps. Jennifer Randazzo, track and
eld coach at Carlmont High School, dis-
agrees.
I dont think it does, she said. I mean,
every runner in their body has some sort of
advantage or disadvantage and you cant pin-
point which one has more of an advantage
than another. You can say something about
someones height in race it could be an
advantage to be taller. Everyone, no matter
who they are, everyone has an advantage or
disadvantage.
Hes doing the work that he needs to do to
get the most out of his body and compete at
that level, Hunt said.
MANCHESTER, England On the verge
of missing the gold-medal game for the rst
time, the U.S. womens soccer team caught a
break when the referee made a call rarely seen
in the sport.
Then the Americans put together a nal
winning surge, inspired by the familiar a
pep talk from co-captain Abby Wambach.
I know Ive said this before, she said she
told her teammates during extra time. But it
really does just take one moment and one
chance, one moment of brilliance for some-
body to do something individually spectacu-
lar.
The moment came beyond the 90 minutes
of regular time, beyond the scheduled 30 min-
utes of extra time. In the third and nal minute
of injury time, with goalkeeper Hope Solo
already preparing for a penalty kick shootout,
Alex Morgan looped in a 6-yard header on a
long cross from Heather OReilly, giving the
U.S. a 4-3 win over Canada in the Olympic
seminals at Old Trafford.

Cardinals offense
too much for S.F.
Walker is versatile for Niners
SANTA CLARA Its difcult to pinpoint
where Delanie Walker will line up this season
for the San Francisco 49ers.
Hes all over the place.
By his own count, Walker
played snaps at seven dif-
ferent positions last year
for the San Francisco
offense. He also lined up
at 15 different spots on
the eld during the course
of the season.
Walkers versatility
meant a lot to the 49ers
last season as the team adjusted to a new
offense under rst-year coach Jim Harbaugh.
He started seven games at tight end his
listed position but also lined up at offensive
tackle, fullback, running back and both wide
receiver positions.
He was used as a regular target in the
passing game, as a decoy and as a blocker.
He even had three carries and also had
eight special teams tackles.
Walkers role continues to expand this sum-
mer in training camp even though the 49ers are
working on ways to get several other newcom-
ers at the skill positions involved in the offense.
I dont want to give anything away, but its
our second year with the same offensive coor-
dinator, so I think well do even a little bit
more, Walker said Monday.
Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Greg
Roman brought a tight end-friendly offense
with them from Stanford to the 49ers last year,
and Walker thrived in the system even though
the team has one of the top tight ends in the
NFL in Vernon Davis.
San Francisco often uses two-tight end for-
mations, and Roman consistently came up with
creative ways to use Walker.
Roman moved the seventh-year veteran all
over the eld and constantly had him shifting
into different alignments after the offense had
come to the line of scrimmage.
Opposing defenses seldom knew what was
coming when Walker stepped out of the huddle.
The 49ers want to keep them guessing.
We will continue to push the envelope with
what were doing, how were using him,
Roman said. Hes a guy that gets it, he under-
stands football. So that tandem of tight ends,
you can do a lot of different things with them.
Delanie worked real hard last year to under-
stand his role, and many roles really on the
offense. Hes starting off at a much higher spot
this year.
Used mostly as a receiving tight end during
his rst ve NFL seasons, Walker evolved into
a key part of the San Francisco offense last sea-
son. Despite missing most of two games with a
broken jaw, he nished fourth on the team with
19 receptions and his three touchdown catches
were a career high.
At 242 pounds, Walker who played wide
receiver in college also contributed to San
Franciscos successful turnaround season with
his blocking.
He had two memorable blocks on Detroit
nose tackle Ndamukong Suh to spring Pro
Bowl running back Frank Gore for long gains
as the 49ers ended the Lions unbeaten run to
start the season.
Delanie Walker
Rookie punter getting work with Raiders
NAPA Punter Marquette King went into
Oakland Raiders training camp hoping to get
something on tape for the other 31 NFL
teams.
An injury to perennial Pro Bowler Shane
Lechler and a modication of his kicking style
have changed those plans slightly.
With Lechler expected to be out at least
another week while rehabbing a minor knee
injury he suffered in the offseason, King has
assumed all of the punting duties in camp and
will likely do the same when the Raiders (tied
23rd in the AP Pro 32) open their preseason
next week against the Dallas Cowboys.
Its been an unexpected but welcome
change for King, who was a wide receiver
early in college before moving to special
teams.
Im a little tired but Im excited, too,
King said. Rep-wise I didnt think I was
going to get that much (work). Im just here
to do what I was called to do. I just want to
get better, thats all.
King had his strongest day of camp Monday
when he showcased his new style.
Gone is the shufe, two-step method he
used at Fort Valley State. Now the undrafted
rookie is using a shorter, 1 1/2-step approach
that has added signicant distance and consis-
tency to Kings kicks.
The results have been encouraging, if not
impressive.
King had a pair of booming punts during
Oaklands morning practice, then added two
more soaring kicks that hung high in the air
when he was trying to pin the return man
deep.
When he hits it, he hits it as good as any-
body, Raiders coach Dennis Allen said. Hes
just got to work on staying consistent.
King is attempting to become one of only a
handful of African-American punters in NFL
history.
Reggie Hodges of the Cleveland Browns
was the most recent, in 2010. Hodges missed
all the 2011 season while injured but is on the
Browns training camp roster.
Reggie Roby, baby! yelled defensive
tackle Tommy Kelly following one of Kings
punts, referring to the former Miami Dolphin
punter who was also African-American.
Thats what Im talking about. Go get
yourself a job ... just not here.
Therein lies the rub for King.
No matter how well he does in training
camp or in the preseason, hes almost certain
to nd himself looking for work when the
nal roster cuts are made.
While Lechler is scheduled to become a free
agent in 2013, the Raiders have no plans of
letting him go. He holds the NFL record for
career average (47.6 yards) and is a seven-
time Pro Bowl pick.
Lechler split the punting chores with King
during offseason workouts and minicamps
before reporting to training camp with a knee
injury. He is on the non-football related injury
list.
ST. LOUIS Jake Westbrook threw six solid
innings and Carlos Beltran hit his 26th home run
as the St. Louis Cardinals beat Matt Cain and the
San Francisco Giants 8-2 Monday night.
The Cardinals have won four in a row overall
and seven straight at home. San Francisco had a
three-game winning streak stopped.
Jon Jay went 4 for 4 and drove in two runs for
the Cardinals. Matt Carpenter added a two-run,
bases-loaded single.
Angel Pagan led off the game with a home run
and Buster Posey also connected for the Giants.
Westbrook (11-8) won his fourth decision in a
row, giving up seven hits and two runs. He struck
out four and did not walk a batter. Westbrook has
gone at least six innings in his last 11 starts.
Cain (10-5) tied a season high by giving up
ve earned runs in 5 2-3
innings. The three-time All-
Star absorbed back-to-back
losses for the second time
this season. Cain has
allowed nine home runs in
his last seven starts.
St. Louis scored three
times in the sixth to break a
2-all tie.
Matt Holliday doubled
and came around to score
on a sacrice y by David Freese. Yadier Molina
and Jay followed with singles and Cain walked
Rafael Furcal to load the bases for Carpenter,
who drove a two-strike pitch to left eld.
The Cardinals added three runs in the seventh
to go up 8-2. Jays two-run single was the key
hit.
Beltran, who leads the NL with 78 RBIs, hit
the rst pitch of the second inning 418 feet to tie
it at 1. Four batters later, Furcal broke out of an
0-for-14 slump with an RBI single the 10th pitch
from Cain.
Pagan hit his seventh homer of the season on
the second pitch of the game. Posey tied it at 2-
all with his 17th homer in the sixth.
NOTES: St. Louis INF Daniel Descalso hit in
the leadoff spot for just the sixth time this sea-
son. ... Holliday has seven homers and 21 RBIs
in his last 23 home games. ... Lance Lynn (13-4,
3.40) faces Giants LHP Barry Zito (8-8, 4.27) in
the second game of the four-game series
Tuesday.
The Giants have picked up LHP Jose Mijares
from Kansas City on waivers.

Another athlete grabbing the headlines in
London is Usain Bolt, who won his second
100-meter sprint gold medal over the week-
end. Bolt was the center of a lot of pressure
and scrutiny following a false start and dis-
qualification at the 2011 World
Championships.
Hes able to bounce back that from that
and hes able to focus on what he needs to
focus on at the time, Hunt said of Bolt. In a
way, thats what separates the really top ath-
letes from the others really close to them.
Theyre able to put all the other things aside
and focus on the moment. And when it comes
time to perform, theyre able to do it. Hes
obviously got skills that are just a hair above
everyone elses. Hes incredible. Hes just
incredible. Right now, he has it all. Theres no
if, buts or ands.
The entire world is watching and obvious-
ly there is a lot of pressure because hes the
fastest, Chen said. Bolt really is a beast.
Hes not human. His form is just perfect. And
I think part of the reason why Bolt is that
good, not only because of the talent and on top
of that, he has a lot of condence. And he
thrives on that condence. The bigger the
stage, the better it is.
Bolt will compete in the 200-meter sprint
later on at the London Games.
For Bolt, I think its about condence,
Chen said. And he loves it. He loves to run.
For him, its his childhood pastime, except on
the worlds biggest stage. I love watching him.
Every time I see him run, my jaw just drops.
Its just an honor to see this one person run
that fast.
Chen knows a thing or two about speed.
One of his own athletes, Maddy Price, is mak-
ing waves at the national level in the 400-
meter sprint the race that Chen believes in
the most grueling of the track and eld events.
So perhaps it wouldnt be far-fetched to say
that the county might have a representative on
the track come the 2016 games in Rio de
Janeiro.
Anything is possible, Randazzo said when
asked if maybe Carlmont, which had one of
the more dominant running programs in the
section, will produce an Olympian one day.
A lot of things can happen between high
school and college. Weve seen it already in
the Bay Area, kids from all over, so its very
possible because we do have a strong area
here in the Bay. Its exciting if something like
that does happen.
I rmly believe that yes, Chen said. 110
percent yes. San Mateo County has so many
amazing athletes, so Im not sure why track
and eld doesnt have [a local athlete]. But
Im not losing hope. I myself am trying to pro-
duce a future Olympian. And I rmly believe,
110 percent, that in the future, youll have
somebody to write about it. Well work on
that.
I hope so, Hunt said, mentioning former
San Mateo High School standout Kendall
Spencer in his answer. Spencer dominated the
track before heading to New Mexico State and
winning a national championships in the long
jump last season. He turned that effort into a
tryout at the Olympics trials and told the Daily
Journal that Rio was denitely in his sight.
He certainly has the talent for that, Hunt
said. As far as anyone else out there? Its hard
to say. When you see a 17-year-old swimmer
get there, from a school that youve never
heard of, right? Theres probably someone
lurking in the county right now in track and
eld that could step up four years from now.
You sure hope so.

plenty of days (of off-season practice). There
are 10 days of spring football and the sum-
mer. I just dont want mid-October to roll
around and have the kids look at me (like),
Were sick of each other.
Both Sell and Walsh agree the Aug. 9 start
date gives teams plenty of time to prepare for
the upcoming season. Considering both have
families, they understand there is more to life
than high school football. Plus, having a
break before jumping in with both feet gives
everyone players and coaches a chance
to re-charge their batteries before the slog of
a long season.
We make it [a dead period] because we
grind. [The season] is a grind. ... What are
you going to gain being in full pads on June
15? You kind of want a team that is chained
on a leash, said Walsh, on vacation in
Newport Beach. My philosophy now is,
everyone go away. Dont think about foot-
ball. Take a mental break, take a physical
break. When we come back, youre moving
your chips all in.
I love [the work], but to be honest with
you, I have kids and a family. But once you
punch your ticket, I expect you to be in.
Sell, who was at the airport coming home
from a three-week vacation, agrees.
I didnt get into this (coaching football) to
do it full time.
Another aspect to take into consideration
is the wear and tear a player takes through-
out practice and games. Sell believes the
high school game is still played by growing
kids and there is no need to go all out all the
time.
A thousand reps is not worth one injury,
Sell said. Without a doubt (starting earlier
gives a team an advantage), but its weighed
with risk. Its all good until a starting run-
ning back or linebacker blows out a knee.
Now are all those days of practice worth it?
Bill Walsh was one of the rst who I real-
ly remember wanting to [keep his teams
fresh]. I want them to hit on Sundays, not
Tuesdays. He was a pioneer thinking that.
We dont have to beat the crap out of each
other (during practice) to be a physical
team.
Walsh said WCAL rules are even more
restrictive than CCS rules. Walsh said
WCAL rules allow only helmets during the
summer not full pads.
The WCAL has gotten some bad PR, but
I think it has the right idea when it comes to
summer stuff, said Sell. When it comes to
summer football, the pendulum hasnt
stopped swinging yet. [Schools, leagues and
sections are] still looking for the equilibrium
and havent found it yet.
Like everything else in life, its a balanc-
ing act.
While some areas of the country put a big
premium on high school football Texas,
Florida and Ohio come to mind the Bay
Area in general, and San Mateo County
specically, dont necessarily worship at the
altar of high school football. Sure, Serra and
other teams in the West Catholic Athletic
League are shooting for spots in the state
championship game but, for the most part, I
believe most schools have balanced the pas-
sion for the sport against the well-being of
the players including the WCAL schools.
Thats why I like coaching on the
Peninsula, Sell said. I think football is still
in its proper perspective here. As a coach,
Ive never regretted giving the team a day
off.
LOUNGE Angels top the As
By Antonio Gonzalez
OAKLAND Jered Weaver pitched a four-
hitter for his major-league leading 15th victo-
ry, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the
Oakland Athletics 4-0 on Monday night to
overtake the nal spot in the crowded AL wild
card standings.
Weaver (15-1) struck out nine, walked none
and faced the minimum through 4 1-3 innings.
The Angels ace has won a career-best 10
straight starts, matching Chuck Finleys fran-
chise record set in 1997.
Erick Aybar singled three times and scored
twice in his rst game back from the disabled
list to move Los Angeles (59-51) ahead of
Oakland (58-51) and Baltimore (58-51) by
one victory. Detroit (59-50) is in line for the
other wild card spot.
Jarrod Parker (7-6) allowed four runs and
nine hits in 6 2-3 innings. He struck out six
and walked one in Oaklands third straight
loss.

whether it was layups or in the post, James
said. Once you get a couple easy ones at the
rim, then the 3-pointers open up and you saw
what KD was able to do.
Durants 3-pointer after James surge gave
the U.S. 10 points in 2:10 of the second half,
and he made back-to-back 3s midway through
the period to make it 85-68. Then he nailed
consecutive 3s again later in the quarter, one
from beyond the hash line, a distance that
most players would never consider pulling up
from.
I really didnt pay attention to where the
line was, Durant said. When I caught that
ball I was going to shoot it.
With his 17 points, Durant tied Argentina
all by himself in the third quarter. He nished
8 of 10 from 3-point range, where the U.S.
team was 20 of 39.
Durant, who holds the U.S. scoring record
with 38 points in the 2010 world champi-
onship, might have threatened that if not for
the lopsided score. He checked out for good
about a minute into the fourth quarter.
It sort of developed, but anybody in their
right mind, when he gets shooting the ball like
that, theres only one thing to do: Get the ball
to him, Paul said of the plan to feed Durant.
Luckily, we have a team that has the pres-
ence of mind to get it to him. He is unbeliev-
able. We have to yell at him to shoot the ball
and as you see, he usually makes it.
Manu Ginobili scored 16 points for
Argentina (3-2), which would have won
Group A via tiebreaker if it had blown out the
U.S. Instead, it nished third and will face
Brazil in the quarternals.
In the second half the U.S. really upped the
ante, started playing very hard. They had a lot
of defensive attacks and they started to run a
lot more, Argentinas Leonardo Gutierrez
said through a translator. They also had an
incredibly high percentage of 3-pointers. In
the third quarter, they had three or four 3-
pointers. They got one after another, all in a
row, and we had a strong offense and gained
many points. but that is something very dif-
cult for any team to overcome.
A crowd featuring former Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice and ex-heavyweight box-
ing champion Evander Holyeld was treated
to an offensive show in the rst half with little
more defense than the NBA All-Star game. A
basket on one end was answered quickly by a
shot on the other in what was shaping up as a
thriller between the last two Olympic champi-
ons.
But the U.S. simply has too much offense,
even if the defense could use some tightening
up.
The Americans have two days to work on it
before facing the Australians (3-2), who
pulled a surprise earlier Monday, handing
Group B champion Russia its rst loss, 82-80,
on Patty Mills 3-pointer as time expired.
Then again, maybe the defense is ne as it
is.
USA
I dont have much to say because I need to
wrap my head around what just happened,
Solo said. And thats the truth of the matter.
We tend to keep things interesting.
Next comes the game the U.S. players have
been eyeing for more than a year, a rematch
with Japan on Thursday at Wembley Stadium
with gold on the line. The top-ranked
Americans lost to Japan on penalty kicks in
the World Cup nal last summer, a stunning
blow that became a source of motivation as
the players prepared for the London
Olympics.
This is redemption for us, midelder Carli
Lloyd said. We know how hard it was for us
after that game. It hurt us for a really long
time.
The Americans overcame three one-goal
decits, all due to Christine Sinclair goals in
the 22nd, 67th and 73rd minutes. Megan
Rapinoe scored in the 54th and 70th minutes,
and Wambach in the 80th for the U.S., leaving
Sinclair and Wambach tied at No. 2 with 143
international goals apiece, both chasing Mia
Hamms world record of 158.
It was the sequence that led to Wambachs
tying goal that left the Canadians fuming. It
started when goalkeeper Erin McLeod was
whistled for holding the ball more than six
seconds, a call even U.S. coach Pia Sundhage
said she had never seen before.
That gave the Americans an indirect free
kick inside the area. Rapinoe took the kick
and rammed it into the Canadian wall, the ball
glancing off the arm of Marie-Eve Nault.
Referee Christiana Pedersen of Norway then
awarded the U.S. a penalty kick, which
Wambach converted off the left post.
McLeod said she did not receive the usual
warning from the referee about holding the
ball too long, although she said the linesman
had told her at the start of the second half not
to slow down play.
I think the referee was very one-sided,
McLeod said. It was an interesting sequence
of events. I think we outplayed the Americans
the entire game. I think its unfortunate the
calls went the way that they did. Of course,
the Americans are a great soccer team, and
today we were better, and the luck went their
way.

Suhr brings home Olympic pole vault gold
LONDON For the rst time before a big
meet, Jenn Suhr heard a positive message
from her husband, Rick, whos also her
coach.
While sending Jenn onto the eld for the
Olympic pole vault nal Monday night, Rick
told her nobodys unbeatable not even
Russian superstar Yelena Isinbayeva, the two-
time champion and world-record holder.
And so, Suhr went out and proved him
right, defeating Isinbayeva, capturing the
gold and giving a nice boost to the United
States track and eld team, which hasnt been
getting many breaks so far at the London
Olympics.
Before I went out here, he said, Youre
going to win this, Suhr said. Ive competed
100 times and thats not something he says. It
puts that extra spunk that I could do this.
Someone else believes in me that much.
When it was over, Suhr rushed over to the
stands to see her husband, who gingerly
wrapped an American ag around her shoul-
ders while she sobbed into his chest.
A quite different scene from four years ago
in Beijing, when Rick was caught on camera
berating Suhr after her disappointing runner-
up nish to Isinbayeva. Few knew at the time
that they were romantically involved and
would be married two years later.
Yes, theyve come a long way together.
From training in a pair of Quonset huts that
Rick connected together to form a jumping
pit the blue-collar practice area in western
New York they call Rockys Meat Cooler
to winning an Olympic gold medal on the
sports grandest stage.
Suhr vaulted 15 feet, 7 inches (4.75 meters)
to defeat Cubas Yarisley Silva, who cleared
the same height but lost on a tiebreaker
because she had one more miss in the compe-
tition.
More signicantly, Suhr beat Isinbayeva,
who failed to become the rst woman to win
the same individual track and eld event at
three consecutive Olympics. Isinbayeva set-
tled for bronze with a vault of 15-5 (4.70).
Of course Im not a fairy tale, she said.
Though Isinbayeva has struggled since
her last Olympic gold, Rick Suhr wouldnt
listen to any of that.
Like so many in their pole vaulting world,
the Suhrs have long considered Isinbayeva
the gold standard. After his wife nally beat
the Russian, Rick compared Jenn to wrestler
Rulon Gardner who beat the undefeated
Alexander Karelin in 2000 and himself to
Herb Brooks, who coached the 1980 Olympic
hockey team to its shocking win over the
Russians and eventual gold.
Its such a big upset, I dont think people
realize how big it actually is, Rick Suhr said.
And yet, for the U.S. track team, it only
moves the scoreboard up by one notch. Suhrs
was a surprise gold for the Americans on a
night when they couldnt catch a break any-
where else.
Two-time Olympic gold medalist Angelo
Taylor staggered to the nish in the mens
400-meter hurdles for fth place in a race
won by 34-year-old Felix Sanchez of the
Dominican Republic. Sanchez finished in
47.63 to beat American Michael Tinsley to
the line, as the United States took only one
medal in an event where it captured all three
in Beijing.
Sports brief
United States men defeat
Tunisia to claim top pool position
LONDON David McKienzie scored 17
points and the defending champion U.S. mens
volleyball team clinched a top tournament
seed at the London Olympics on Monday with
a win over Tunisia.
Sean Rooney added 12 points in the 25-15,
25-19, 25-19 win, which set up a quarternal
against Italy on Wednesday. Tunisia nished
the competition at Earls Court without a win.
The United States was coming off a ve-set
loss to Russia, which ended an 11-match win-
ning streak in Olympic play, dating to the
Americans undefeated march to the gold
medal in the Beijing Games.
The Americans preliminary round was
highlighted by a four-set victory over top-
ranked Brazil, a rematch of the Beijing nal.
The fth-ranked U.S. men werent consid-
ered among the medal favorites at the London
Games, but they claimed silver in the recent
World League tournament before opening the
Olympics with dominant straight-set victories
over Serbia and Germany.

TRANSACTIONS
Keith Smart is getting the closest
thing he has ever had to a long-term
deal as an NBA coach.
The Sacramento Kings extended
Smarts contract through the 2013-
14 season on
M o n d a y .
Smarts deal
had been set to
expire after the
upcoming sea-
son.
K e i t h s
extension gives
us the stability
we need to con-
tinue the development of our team,
Kings President of Basketball
Operations Geoff Petrie said in a
statement. He has the commitment,
energy and vision necessary to suc-
ceed in building a winning team. We
are all looking forward to working
with him as we pursue an exciting
and productive future.
The 47-year-old Smart, hired as
an assistant last summer, took over
for the fired Paul Westphal in
January after a 2-5 start. The Kings
went 20-39 the rest of the way under
Smart during the lockout-shortened
season and then selected Thomas
Robinson of Kansas with the fth
overall pick in the NBA draft.
The extension provides Smart the
job security he has never had.
Latvia knocks U.S. men out of Olympic beach vball
LONDON Jake Gibb and Sean
Rosenthal left Beijing with a fth-
place finish and a good feeling
about how they performed in their
rst Olympic beach volleyball tour-
nament.
When they were eliminated from
the London Games on Monday
night, they didnt have the consola-
tion of exceeding their expectations.
Its 100 times worse, Gibb said
after the Americans squandered a
victory in the rst set to lose 19-21,
21-18, 15-11 to Latvia in the
Olympic quarterfinals and match
their 2008 nish. That was our rst
time and we lost to the defending
gold medalists. Im not saying we
were supposed to lose that time or
win this time, but its different.
I really felt like we were going to
win a medal.
Gibb and Rosenthal qualied for
the Olympics as the second
American team, earning a fourth
seed in London, but they were play-
ing so well this summer that they
had risen to No. 1 in the world rank-
ings. The Latvian team of Beijing
veteran Martins Plavins and new
partner Janis Smedins was seeded
17th in the 24-team bracket.
(Plavins former partner was also in
London, losing in the round of 16.)
Its just amazing, Smedins said.
We are a small country and we had
two teams: One had ninth place, and
one is still playing.
The Latvians will play top-seeded
Emanuel and Alison, who advanced
earlier Monday after ghting off a
match point against Poland to win
21-17, 16-21, 17-15.
The reigning world champions
trailed Mariusz Prudel and Grzegorz
Fijalek 14-13 in the third and wast-
ed one match point of their own
before Alison spiked the ball to the
sand for the winner.

By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
WASHINGTON Republican gov-
ernors whove balked at creating new
private insurance markets under
President Barack Obamas health care
overhaul may end up getting stuck with
the very thing theyre trying to avoid.
Unless Mitt Romney wins in
November, states that havent set up the
required markets could nd Washington
calling the shots on some insurance
issues the states traditionally manage,
from handling consumer complaints to
regulating plans that will serve many cit-
izens.
It could turn into a political debacle
for those who dug in to ght what they
decry as Obamacare.
Youre kind of rolling the dice if you
think (Obamas health care law) will go
away, said Kansas Insurance
Commissioner Sandy Praeger, a
Republican. If Romney cant make good
on his vow to repeal the overhaul, you
are just giving up a lot of authority.
The law envisioned that states would
run the new markets, called exchanges,
with federal control as a fallback only.
But the fallback now looks as if it will
become the standard option in about half
the states at least initially.
It would happen through something
called the federal exchange, humming
along largely under the radar on a tight
development schedule overseen by the
Health and Human Services Department
in Washington.
Exchanges are new online markets in
which individual consumers and small
businesses will shop for health insurance
among competing private plans. The
Supreme Courts health care decision
left both state exchanges and the federal
option in place.
The exchanges are supposed to
demystify the process of buying health
insurance, allowing consumers to make
apples-to-apples comparisons.
Consumers will also be able to nd out
if theyre eligible for new federal subsi-
dies to help pay premiums, or if they
qualify for expanded Medicaid.
Its all supposed to work in real time,
or close to it, like online travel services.
Open enrollment would start a little over
a year from now, on Oct. 1, 2013, with
coverage kicking in the following Jan. 1.
Eventually more than 25 million peo-
ple are expected to get coverage through
exchanges, including many who were
previously uninsured. As exchanges get
more customers, competition among
insurance plans could help keep costs in
check.
But only 14 states and Washington,
D.C., have adopted plans for their own
exchanges: California, Colorado,
Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Nevada, New York,
Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont,
Washington and West Virginia. Some
could still backtrack.
Kentucky and Minnesota are pushing
forward with their own exchanges, and
others may be able to partner with the
federal government. States face a Jan. 1,
2013 deadline for Washington to sign off
on their plans.
Meanwhile, the federal exchange is
advancing.
HHS contractors are working feverish-
ly to design and test computer systems
that would make the federal exchange
come alive. Its a top priority for the
administration, which is guarding the
details closely. Estimated price tag: at
least $860 million.
The government is on track in mov-
ing aggressively to set up this market
structure, Mike Hash, the HHS ofcial
overseeing the effort, told industry rep-
resentatives, state ofcials and public
policy experts at a recent Bipartisan
Policy Center conference. Were on
track ... to go live in the fall of 2013.
I think the pressure is on them to
deliver, and I fully expect they will, said
Jon Kingsdale, who was the founding
director of the nations rst health insur-
ance exchange, created under then-Gov.
Romneys health care overhaul in
Massachusetts.
Now a consultant to states, Kingsdale
says he expects the federal exchange to
look very much like the one already
operating in his home state.
There will be a website, and youll be
able to put in your ZIP code and get a list
of available health plans. There will be a
section where you can nd out if you
qualify for subsidies, or whether you
might need to look at Medicaid. There
will be cost calculators to allow you to
compare different levels of coverage:
platinum, gold, silver and bronze. There
will be tools that allow you to see if your
doctor or hospital is with a particular
plan.
In an interview, HHS ofcial Hash
said the government is undaunted by the
prospect of running exchanges in half
the states or more.
What we are talking about building
here is a system that is really using 21st
century technology, and its not depend-
ent like in the past on bricks and mortar
or how many (federal employees) you
have, said Hash. Information technol-
ogy produces the opportunity for ef-
ciency. Its much more easily scalable if
you need to do it for a larger number of
individuals.
Paper applications also will be accept-
ed. And Hash expects people will have
plenty of help to navigate the system,
from volunteers to insurers advertising
to reach new customers.

cent over the previous year.
Chris Carpenter, general manager of the San Mateo County
Event Center, where the week-long fair kicked off June 9,
credited in large part the scheduling move from August to
June.
The last two years have validated the move and solidied
our fair as the best entertainment value in the Bay Area,
Carpenter said in a prepared statement.
Carpenter also pointed to the fairs winning 15 rst-place
awards at the Western Fairs Association Annual Achievement
Awards earlier this year as proof the event is stronger than ever.
The 78th annual fairs theme was Where Tradition Meets
Innovation and Carpenter said it quadrupled its Twitter fol-
lowers by using it and Facebook to promote what was going on
through social media.
And fair fans who want to relive the experience need not
wait until next year. According to fair organizers, the Bravo
Network lmed an episode of its upcoming reality show
Silicon Valley there because the festive environment was
the key aspect to the advancement of a difcult story line. No
word, however, on what evening entertainment was scheduled
during shooting.

FAIR
Steinberg defended the raises to more than 1,000 legislative
employees. But he said he also recognizes they could hurt
Democrats effort to pass an initiative that would temporarily
raise income and sales taxes.
The revelation led to widespread outrage because the rais-
es were handed out as lawmakers were making deep budget
cuts. Opponents already are using the raises as ammunition
against the tax proposal.
Steinberg said the states budget deficit seemed to be final-
ly under control when he authorized the raises a year ago. He
said he felt then that the state could afford to bring legislative
employees wages back in line with other state workers who
had been receiving regular merit increases even as they lost
pay to furloughs.
I will admit Ive had a few sleepless nights over the break
about it, because you know I pride myself on thinking
through things, Steinberg, D-Sacramento, told reporters.
The last thing I want to do is I want the taxes to pass
and the state to recover. But you know what? We live with our
decisions, and we did it for the right and a fair reason, he
said.
Part of this job is you take the hits. You take the hits and
move on.
Some top Assembly and Senate employees were given rais-
es as high as 10 percent, and more than 110 of the 1,090 rais-
es went to employees with salaries above $100,000.
Steinberg has said he will freeze Senate pay increases for
the coming year, but Assembly Speaker John Perez, D-Los
Angeles, will not.
The Assembly has a policy allowing for modest salary
increases for long-term employees whose salaries have been
frozen for longer than three years, and for employees who
have taken on significant new responsibilities, said Perezs
spokesman, John Vigna. He said there are no plans to change
that.
Steinberg and Vigna said the Senate and Assembly have cut
their budgets substantially in other areas in recent years.
Opponents of the November tax initiative have also criti-
cized Democratic lawmakers for failing to agree with the
Democratic governor on major reforms to the states mas-
sively underfunded pension systems.
Steinberg promised that legislators will make substantial
changes before they adjourn Aug. 31, despite opposition from
public employee unions that are Democratic lawmakers
major benefactors.
We have a common goal here, Steinberg said. Both are
committed to passing Browns tax increases and both want to
put the public employee pension issue to rest at a time of
voter backlash against public sector employees in other
states.
The only way to accomplish both of those goals is to deal
with it, Steinberg said. Will it cause some discomfort,
unhappiness? Yes. Do you sometimes disagree with your
friends and your allies in order to do what you think is the
right thing? Yes. And so I never expected that were going to
get high fives for any of this.
TAX PLAN
The government has awarded two big
technology contracts for exchanges.
Virginia-based CGI Federal Inc. is
building the federal exchange.
Maryland-based Quality Software
Services Inc. is building whats called
the federal data services hub, an elec-
tronic back office that will be used by
the federal exchange and state
exchanges to verify identity, income,
citizenship and legal residence.
Running the data hub will involve
securely checking sensitive personal
information held by agencies such as
the Social Security Administration,
Internal Revenue Service and
Homeland Security Department.
Technology experts say thats a chal-
lenge but not insurmountable. HHS
rejected an Associated Press request to
interview the contractors.
The administration says consumers
should not notice any difference
between the federal exchange and mar-
ketplaces run by the states. But state
regulators disagree.
I think we would be giving up
something, said Praeger, the Kansas
insurance commissioner. It would
have much more of a federal flavor
than a Kansas flavor.
Praeger wants Kansas to have a state-
run exchange, but GOP Gov. Sam
Brownback and Republican state legis-
lators are opposed. If opponents pre-
vail, the state will have a federal
exchange.
But conservatives are raising yet
another argument in hopes of shutting
down federal exchanges.
Led by Cato Institute economist
Michael Cannon, several opponents
say the letter of the complex law pre-
cludes the government from subsidiz-
ing coverage through the federal
exchange. They say the law allows only
tax credits to help consumers pay pre-
miums in state exchanges, not the fed-
eral exchange, and thats the way
Congress intended it. If states dont set
up exchanges, that would starve the
health care overhaul of money and
cause it to unravel, they contend.
But the IRS and two nonpartisan
congressional units the
Congressional Budget Office and the
Joint Committee on Taxation con-
ducted their own analyses and conclud-
ed that subsidies are available in both
types of exchanges, federal and state-
run. Senate Finance Committee
Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., one
of the laws principal authors, says
thats exactly how Congress intended
it.
At the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners, spokesman
Scott Holeman says, At this time, we
dont have any reason to question the
federal governments interpretation of
the statute.
The dispute may wind up in court but
probably wouldnt get resolved until
after the exchanges were up and run-
ning.

ATLANTA More serious illnesses from
West Nile virus have been reported so far this
year than any since 2004, health ofcials said
Wednesday.
Through the end of July, 241 human cases
have been reported in 22 states, including
four deaths. Texas, especially around the
Dallas area, has seen the bulk of them.
Health ofcials believe the mild winter,
early spring and very hot summer have fos-
tered breeding of the mosquitoes that spread
the virus to people.
Most West Nile infections are reported in
August and September, so its not clear how
bad this year will be. But it doesnt look
good.
Unless the weather changes dramatically,
well see more cases (in 2012) than we have
in the last couple of years, said Roger Nasci
of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. He is chief of the CDC branch
that tracks insect-borne diseases.
Mosquitoes pick up the virus from birds
they bite and then spread it to people.
Only about one in ve infected people get
sick. One in 150 infected people will develop
severe symptoms including neck stiffness,
disorientation, coma and paralysis.
Of the 241 cases reported so far this year,
144 were severe cases in which the virus
spread to the brain and nervous system and
caused encephalitis or other problems. The last
time so many serious cases were reported this
early was 2004, when the number was 154.
West Nile virus was rst reported in the
United States in 1999 in New York, and then
gradually spread across the country. Its peak
occurred in 2002 and 2003, when severe ill-
nesses numbered nearly 3,000 and deaths
surpassed 260.
Last year was a mild one, with fewer than
700 human cases reported.
In recent years, the general pattern has
been cases scattered across the country along
with hot spots with more illnesses. The recur-
ring hot spots include southeast Louisiana,
central and southern California, and areas
around Dallas, Houston, Chicago and
Phoenix.
Those areas seem to have a combination of
factors that include the right kinds of virus-
carrying mosquitoes and birds, along with
large numbers of people who can be infected,
Nasci said.
The best way to prevent West Nile disease
is to avoid mosquito bites. Insect repellants,
screens on doors and windows and wearing
long sleeves and pants are some of the rec-
ommended strategies. Also, empty standing
water from buckets, kiddie pools and other
places to discourage mosquito breeding.

Executive director duties were trans-
ferred to the artistic and development
directors.
Eric Lochtefeld said he was
approached about three weeks ago by
two staff members and initially planned
only to offer some advice. By the time
he saw the whole picture, Lochtefeld
said stepping in with capital and leader-
ship made more sense.
Company Board Chairman Jeff
Uccelli said the addition of the
Lochtefelds will help the theater survive
and ourish in an economy that has
proven challenging.
The truth is the company just got
behind and couldnt catch up,
Lochtefeld said. We said this is savable.
Lets clean it up and then lets reorg it
and bring it back stronger.
The immediate plan is to nish out the
current season at the Fox Theatre and
produce two or three shows annually at
the renovated San Mateo Performing
Arts Center when it reopens. Broadway
By the Bay formally staged shows at the
center but moved to the Fox in 2011
when the center shut down for three
years worth of improvements.
There is plenty of room for two great
theaters and we can help each other out.
Weve forged a great relationship,
Lochtefeld said.
The goal is six theatrical runs each
year with a focus on classic musical the-
ater at the San Mateo site and cutting-
edge musicals with wider appeal at the
Fox.
Why cant the Orpheum get a little
competition? Weve always said we like
to do things differently Lochtefeld said.
The Lochtefelds began doing things
differently at the Fox in May 2010 when
they scooped the historic theater up from
foreclosure. The 1928 Art Deco theater
on Broadway had reopened in June 2002
as a cornerstone of Redwood Citys
long-anticipated downtown renovation
but faced a shaky future after the owners
fell behind on millions of dollars in out-
standing loans.
The timing was fortuitous as
Broadway By the Bay was about to be
ousted from the San Mateo Performing
Arts Center for a three-year, $25 million
renovation and needed a new home.
When Broadway By the Bay moved in,
Gardia said the new locale was a good t
for theater-goers because of its proximi-
ty to restaurants and public transporta-
tion and the ability to serve alcohol dur-
ing intermission.
But Lochtefeld said there was a lack
of good communication between the
company and the public about needs like
parking locations or if it planned a return
to San Mateo. The biggest hurdle may
have been not tapping into the Foxs
economy of scale that it now can pro-
vide, Lochtefeld said.
Rather than use the Foxs existing
lighting or sound, for instance,
Lochtefeld said Gardia wanted to contin-
ue using the same vendors as at the pre-
vious venue. The same went for using a
Los Angeles-based marketing rm, he
said.
Those werent the best nancial deci-
sions, he said.
Having the Fox and Broadway By the
Bay more entwined also allows more
exibility to schedule rehearsals around
other events and tapping into sponsor-
ship opportunities, Lochtefeld said.
This month, the Fox itself begins
installing new seats for more comfort-
able sit-down performances and, with
the new Broadway By the Bay arrange-
ment, the Lochtefelds have committed to
speeding up the process.
Otherwise, Lochtefeld said the public
should see little change other than the
theaters office moving to Redwood
City. They have hired two employees,
are in talks with others and are looking
at naming an executive director.
Otherwise, Lochtefeld said fans of the
group should only expect improvements.
I think this can be a great company
and we can make this really special, he
said.
Interestingly, the connection between
the Lochtefelds and Broadway By the
Bay extends beyond the Fox Theatre.
Eric Lochtefelds father is vice chairman
of Cahill Contractors, which is complet-
ing the $25 million renovation of the San
Mateo Performing Arts Center.
SAVED
$1,000 stipend and exposure to environ-
mental issues like restoration needs and
green jobs.
Among those working this summer is
18-year-old Vanessa Romero. In her sec-
ond year with the program, Romero has
helped with trail maintenance, drainage
dips and making safety changes to local
parks.
I think its a job that teens can get
something out of. This program allows for
you to interact with people. Its a hands-on
experience and youre doing something
for the community, she said.
This year, 16 Peninsula teens, ages 16 to
19, are part of the two crews in San Mateo
County. It takes Bay Area SCA
Coordinator Carri Katonah a couple
months to put together the ve crews
throughout the Bay Area for the summer
program. Most of her connections are
made through presentations at schools or
counselors. Students must ll out an
application then Katonah interviews each
viable candidate. Its a short interview, but
she said its important practice for the
teens, many of whom have never had an
interview before.
Katonah actually started working with
SCA as a crew leader then took on her
current role about two years ago.
As a crew leader, I was inspired with
what it brings together. [SCA] gives youth
the opportunity to be in the outdoors. We
have many parks and yet not everyone has
access to them, she said adding teens also
get job skills and learn about environmen-
tal issues.
After only ve weeks, Katonah notices
a change in the teens. Often they start out
a bit shy, nervous about meeting new peo-
ple and working with unfamiliar tools. By
the end, they are taking initiative, she said.
Seventeen-year-old Nestor Martinez,
from Redwood City, has worked a few
construction jobs making him familiar
with much of the work hes been doing
this summer. He was drawn to the oppor-
tunity to do something for the local envi-
ronment.
Ive learned that humans are dirty,
said Martinez who added the experience
has already changed some of his habits.
For example, he now picks up trash he
sees in the community. It doesnt seem
like much, but that trash can add up.
Its not just the teens who are taking
something from the program.
Farah Winer is working as a crew leader
this summer. Winer, who lives in Loma
Mar, works at an outdoor school and often
takes advantage of the local trails.
Ill denitely never look at a trail the
same way, she said.
Winers working in a management role
has taught her about the importance of
patience. In terms of the environmental
projects, shes also learning more about
the reasons behind work being done in
parks. In particular, she has a greater
understanding of the balance needed
between conservation and managing the
land. Trails are engineered, she explained,
in hopes of keeping people off other
areas.
Students work Monday through
Thursday then take environmental eld
trips on Friday to learn about other local
opportunities, said Katonah.
Over this summer, the program has
helped construct more than 20 drainage
dips and clear debris from two miles of
trail at San Pedro Valley Park in Pacica.
Teens helped to remove and rebuild 100
feet of split rail fencing at Huddart County
Park, held a beach cleanup at the
Fitzgerald Marine Reserve and widened
100 feet of trail at Wunderlich County
Park.
This fall, the hope is to expand locally
by launching a year-round Green Jobs
training program for East Palo Alto youth.
The nonprot will partner with high
schools, land management agencies,
youth and environmental nonprots,
green businesses and others with the goal
of creating at least 385 positions for Bay
Area youth.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 7, 2012
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you have to contend
with an individual who is unyielding and stubborn,
attempting to convert him or her to your way of doing
things could turn out to be an exercise in futility. Let
it go.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Dont assume any new
fnancial obligations, especially if you are already
straining to take care of some old debts. One more
straw could break the camels back.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Before accusing your
mate or anyone else of dragging his or her feet,
make sure youre doing everything that is required of
you. Theres a chance that youve dropped the ball.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Should you fnd
yourself being asked to perform a task or assignment
that you fnd distasteful, rather than make a fuss over
it, do what is requested with a smile.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Do what you can
to steer clear of a controversial situation that involves
two of your friends. Your well-meaning input could
complicate matters rather than help resolve them.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Disagreements with
family need to be kept private. Instead of acquiring
support, airing your disputes in public merely makes
everyone look bad in the eyes of others.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You should strive to
be supportive of associates who express their ideas
and/or plans. If you feel compelled to comment,
make sure that what you say is constructive, not
critical.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Before taking on any
long-term obligation at this point in time, review
the possibilities from all angles. If you are impulsive
about it, you could create diffculties that would last
a long while.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you fnd yourself
stymied by a lack of support, be both patient and
persevering. There isnt anyone who cant be won
over.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Dont expect your col-
leagues to do things for you that you could easily do
for yourself. Whether theyre friends or co-workers,
others will resent being manipulated.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It might provide you
with temporary pleasure to put frivolous interests
ahead of duties, but it wont equal the guilt youll feel
and/or blame youll collect on account of not doing
your job.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- There wont be any
free rides currently. Only hard work and persistence
will help you achieve goals worthy of the effort. Youll
need to roll up your sleeves and get to work.
