APPLE SETS RECORD FOR COMPANY VALUE AT $624B

The disastrous drought plaguing much of
the country has put agriculture issues front
and center. Farmers in the Midwest are losing
crops, and much of their livestock is getting to
be too expensive to feed. Farmers are blaming
more than Mother Nature for their woes.
Congress has gone on its August recess
without passing relief
measures, or, more impor-
tantly, a farm bill. Farmers
anxiously await the pass-
ing of a new five-year
farm bill that they hope
will renew government
nancial support for food
growers.
Congress did not pass a
farm bill before the recess because of con-
icting views on how taxpayer money should
be spent. Republicans in the U.S. House of
Representatives are trying to reduce spending,
while Democrats are against proposed cuts to
food stamps. U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo, criticized the House farm bill, which
would cut more than $16 billion from food
assistance programs.
This cut would amount to a two percent
reduction in the $772 billion budget for the
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
over the next 10 years, according to the House
Committee on Agriculture.
In response to proposals to cut spending on
food stamps, Speier is shining a light on the
large payouts that agribusinesses are securing
through crop insurance subsidies.

NEW YORK A San Francisco hedge

his claims that he was careful never to

public companies.
Atherton resident Doug Whitman,
whose hedge fund oversaw roughly $100
million, was convicted of all charges against him. Only days
earlier, the Manhattan federal jury heard him testify that he
took pains to trade only on legal information gleaned from

Man fights to keep
wife buried in front yard
STEVENSON, Ala. James Davis is
ghting to keep the remains of his late
wife right where he dug her grave: In the
front yard of his home, just a few feet
from the porch.
Davis said he was only abiding by
Patsy Ruth Davis wishes when he
buried her outside their log home in
2009, yet the city sued to move the body
elsewhere. A county judge ordered
Davis to disinter his wife, but the ruling
is on hold as the Alabama Civil Court of
Appeals considers his challenge.
Davis, 73, said he never expected such
a ght.
Good Lord, theyve raised pigs in
their yard, theres horses out the road
here in a corral in the city limits, theyve
got other gravesites here all over the
place, said Davis. And there shouldnt
have been a problem.
While state health ofcials say family
burial plots arent uncommon in
Alabama, city ofcials worry about the
precedent set by allowing a grave on a
residential lot on one of the main streets
through town. They say state law gives
the city some control over where people
bury their loved ones and have cited con-
cerns about long-term care, appearance,
property values and the complaints of
some neighbors.
Were not in the 1800s any longer,
said city attorney Parker Edmiston.
Were not talking about a homestead,
were not talking about someone who is
out in the country on 40 acres of land.
Mr. Davis lives in downtown
Stevenson.
A strong libertarian streak runs
through northeast Alabama, which has
relatively few zoning laws to govern
what people do with their property. Even
a neighbor who got into a ght with
Davis over the gravesite Davis said
he punched the man isnt comfortable
with limiting what a homeowner can do
with his property.
I dont think its right, but its not my
place to tell him he cant do it, said
George W. Westmoreland, 79, who
served three tours of duty in Vietnam. I
laid my life on the line so he would have
the right to do this. This is what freedom
is about.
Westmoreland declined to discuss his
specic objections to the grave.
Experts: Laws on online
prostitution need updating
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Laws
written long before the dawn of the
Internet age have authorities across the
nation struggling to prosecute online
prostitution rings because of huge loop-
holes and defense lawyers claims that
the websites are protected speech.
A case in point is a recent New
Mexico case involving a retired profes-
sor and former college administrator
who were accused in what police
described as an extensive multistate,
online prostitution ring, experts say.
The two were cleared after a judge
ruled that state law said the website they
operated didnt constitute a house of
prostitution, even though investigators
said the men used the site to recruit pros-
titutes and promote prostitution.
The problem, legal experts say,
stemmed from law enforcement ofcials
trying to apply old prostitution laws in a
high-tech world. And they say it happens
in many states, with authorities strug-
gling to prosecute websites as brothels
or pinpoint where free speech ends and
the facilitation of a crime begins.
Further, the National Conference of
State Legislatures says state legislatures
arent actively working to update prosti-
tution laws.
Sometimes states laws are too spe-
cic and were written years ago, long
before the Internet, said Scott
Cunningham, a Baylor University eco-
nomics professor who has written about
technology and prostitution. Thats
why we are seeing some successful chal-
lenges to laws when websites are
involved.
A big reason: Many websites function
as screening services linking would-be
prostitutes with potential customers,
Cunningham said. That isnt enough to
charge website owners of a crime in
some states.

A martial arts academy that employed an
instructor accused of inappropriately touching
two young female students carelessly and
negligently failed to establish appropriate
guidelines for interacting and teaching
minors, according to a lawsuit led on behalf
of one girl.
In a suit led earlier this month, the girls
guardian holds parent company Action Martial
Arts, Inc. liable for instructor Meng Ricky
Wongs alleged actions at Tat Wong Kung Fu
Academy in San Mateo and asks for damages
to punish and make an example of those
involved, including owner Tat Mau Wong.
Meng Ricky Wong, 36, of Redwood City is
charged with four counts of molestation that
leave him facing life in
prison if convicted of
abusing multiple victims.
Hes free from custody on
a $100,000 bail bond but
due back in criminal court
Sept. 28 for a preliminary
hearing on the evidence.
Wong worked at the
43rd Avenue studio
between 1999 and 2011.
Prosecutors say he fondled two girls, ages 9
and 11, at different times between August
2010 and October 2011. The girls do not know
each other but are very similar in age and
appearance, according to San Mateo police.
In the rst instance, Wong allegedly took
the girl upstairs at the studio and touched her
breasts and buttocks. The girl reported the
incident but the lack of corroboration led to no
prosecution. In October 2011, the second girl
reported an identical touching incident
upstairs at the studio.
Which girls guardian led the San Mateo
County Superior Court case is unclear but she
joined the academy in October 2006 in hopes
of earning a black belt, according to the docu-
ment. In late summer through November
2010, Wong touched the girl in a way uncon-
nected to his instruction, the suit alleges.
As a result, the girl claims she suffered
severe pain and suffering, anxiety, shock,
humiliation and fame. She also incurred
expenses for medical care, medicine and
counseling, the suit states.
An attorney for the girl and representatives
of Tat Wong Kung Fu Academy did not return
calls for comment.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 27-year-old Belmont man previously
convicted for repeatedly having sex with an
inebriated teenager is again facing similar
accusations involving the 15-year-old sister of
his roommates girlfriend.
Joshua Kenneth Bringazi began trial yester-
day on charges of a lewd act against a child
more than 10 years younger and unlawful sex-
ual intercourse. As a second-striker, Bringazi
faces less than a decade if convicted. He has
pleaded not guilty.
Attorneys began wading through motions
yesterday and the trial is estimated to last
seven days.
Prosecutors say Bringazi, then 25, had sex
with the Oregon teen on Aug. 24, 2010 when
she came with her half-sis-
ter to visit family. Bringazi
was a roommate of the sis-
ters boyfriend and the
girls reportedly stayed
with them. On the night in
question, Bringazi pres-
sured the girl to have a
beer during a drinking
game before having sex
with her in his room,
according to the District Attorneys Ofce.
The next day, the girl allegedly refused fur-
ther advances and Bringazi kicked her and the
sister out of the apartment.
Authorities learned of the local accusations
when Bringazis roommate anonymously
reported the incident to his parole agent.
At the time, Bringazi was on parole for mul-
tiple Santa Clara County convictions of statu-
tory rape involving an inebriated 15-year-old
girl and using a minor to produce obscene
matter, according to the District Attorneys
Ofce.
The Megans Law database also notes
Bringazi was convicted of penetration of a
minor using a foreign object.
Bringazi remains in custody in lieu of
$100,000 bail.

A competency hearing for a man accused of
killing East Palo Alto activist David Lewis at
the Hillsdale Shopping Center in 2010 has
been scheduled to begin Wednesday, a San
Mateo County judge said.
Gregory Leon Elarms, 60, returned to the
county in May after he was deemed t to stand
trial on murder charges by doctors at a state
mental facility in Atascadero.
Unlike past court appearances in which
Elarms blurted out statements to the judge or
his attorneys, yesterday morning he sat quiet-
ly in handcuffs and red jail clothes while the
proceedings were under way. A hearing will
be held before a superior court judge to certi-
fy the Atascadero doctors reports and deter-
mine if Elarms is now mentally t to aid in his
own defense.
Elarms is suspected of following Lewis
from the San Mateo Medical Center to
Hillsdale Shopping Center and shooting him
once in the stomach with a .44-caliber hand-
gun outside of his car.
Before he died later that
evening, officers asked
Lewis who shot him and
he said Greg, according
to San Mateo police inves-
tigators.
Around six months later,
a man in Pittsburg called
police anonymously and
told them that David
Lewis killers were threat-
ening to kill him and that he needed police
protection
Police offered to pick the man up from his
home and got his address, Decker said. After
running an address check, investigators
learned the man at the address was Gregory
Elarms.
According to police, Elarms later confessed
to shooting Lewis himself because he believed
Lewis had opposed him in a residential dis-
pute. Elarms was arrested on Dec. 19, 2010.
He was charged with murder, discharging a
gun in the course of murder, being a felon in
possession of a rearm and the special cir-
cumstance of lying in wait.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Denounced by his
Republican rival for divisiveness, President
Barack Obama on Monday defended the tone
of his campaign in a combative election year
and insisted its actually Mitt Romneys ads
that are patently false. But Obama did dis-
tance himself from a particularly provocative
negative ad by a political group that supports
him.
Obama also joined the cascade of criticism
from both parties for comments on rape and
abortion by a Republican Senate candidate in
Missouri, using that new controversy to draw
sharp distinctions between his views on
womens health issues and those of
Republicans.
Obama made a surprise
visit to the White House
briefing room, at least
partly upstaging a joint
campaign appearance by
Romney and his running
mate, Paul Ryan, in New
Hampshire. The rally by
Romney and Ryan, their
rst appearance together
after a week of vigorous
campaigning separately, had been highly
anticipated, drawing an enthusiastic crowd
and wide media attention.
The president turned the day into a long-
distance point-counterpoint debate with his
opponent. He took questions from four
reporters, the most he has taken from the
national press corps in two months, dealing to
an extent with complaints about his inaccessi-
bility. Whats more, the ap over rape-and-
abortion remarks by
Republican Rep. Todd
Akin gave the president a
chance to make a direct
appeal to women, who
both campaigns say make
up a majority of undecided
voters.
At issue was Akins
answer in an interview
that aired Sunday that
womens bodies can prevent pregnancies in a
legitimate rape and that conception is rare in
such cases. He later said he misspoke and
apologized, but he said he would not get out
of the race despite such urging from several
prominent fellow Republicans.
As for the tone of the campaign, Obama
declared that it was important to draw
attention to major differences with
Romney, but he said his criticism has
never been out of bounds.
Still, he distanced himself from an ad by the
pro-Obama Priorities USA Action super polit-
ical action committee, which is run by former
Obama White House aides.
That ad pointedly notes the death of the
wife of a steelworker whose company had
been taken over by a group of partners that
included Bain Capital, the private equity rm
that Romney cofounded.
I dont think that Governor Romney is
somehow responsible for the death of the
woman that was portrayed in that ad, Obama
said. But he added that he did not approve or
produce the ad and said it had had only a brief
airing on television.
Romney and Ryan, appearing together for
the rst time in a week, sustained their criti-
cism Monday, leveling new claims of duplici-
ty in Obamas TV ads before about 3,000
friendly people in Manchester.

By Jim Salter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS Rep. Todd Akin fought to sal-
vage his Senate campaign Monday, even as
members of his own party turned against him
and a key source of campaign funding was cut
off in outrage over the Missouri congressmans
comments that women are able to prevent preg-
nancies in cases of legitimate rape.
Akin made no public appearances but went on
former Republican presidential candidate Mike
Huckabees national radio show to apologize.
He vowed to continue his bid for higher ofce.
The good people of Missouri nominated me,
and Im not a quitter, Akin said. To quote my
old friend John Paul Jones, I have not yet begun
to ght.
But Akin seemed to be losing political support
by the hour as fellow
Republicans urged him to
abandon a race the party
had long considered essen-
tial in their bid to regain
control of the Senate.
Incumbent Democrat Claire
McCaskill is seen as vulner-
able in public opinion polls
and because she has been a
close ally of President
Barack Obama.
An ofcial with the National Republican
Senatorial Campaign Committee said the
groups head, Texas Sen. John Cornyn, called
Akin on Monday to tell him that the committee
had withdrawn $5 million in advertising planned
for the Missouri race.
The ofcial spoke to the Associated Press on
condition of anonymity because the conversa-
tion was private.
At least one outside group that has pounded
McCaskill with ads, the Karl Rove-backed
Crossroads organization, also pulled its ads from
Missouri.
Publicly, Cornyn called Akins comments
indefensible and suggested he take 24 hours to
consider what is best for him, his family, the
Republican Party and the values that he cares
about and has fought for.
The Senates top Republican, Mitch
McConnell of Kentucky, said Akins remarks
about rape may prevent him from effectively
representing the Republican Party.
Two other Republican senators Scott
Brown of Massachusetts and Ron Johnson of
Wisconsin urged Akin to step aside from the
Senate race.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 75-year-old Burlingame bicyclist died
Monday shortly after being in a major colli-
sion involving a truck.
Burlingame police received a call about
12:15 p.m. of a major accident on the 1100
block of Cortez Avenue. The bicyclist, whose
name is being withheld until the family can be
notied, was legally riding his bicycle on the
right-hand side of the road, according to
police. A truck, used for tree pruning, was also
traveling south on Cortez Avenue. As the truck
passed the bicyclist, the bicyclist turned left
into the side of the truck. The bicyclist was run
over by the truck, which caused the fatal
injury, according to the press release.
The cyclist, a Burlingame resident, suc-
cumbed to his injuries shortly after emergency
personnel arrived on scene, according to the
police.
A police investigation is ongoing. At this
time, there are no indications that a crime con-
tributed to this collision. The driver of the
truck is cooperating with this investigation,
according to police.
California considers
farmworker overtime bill
SACRAMENTO California farmwork-
ers would be paid overtime after working an
eight-hour day or 40 hours
in a week, the same as
other non-management
employees, under a bill
approved by the state
Senate on Monday over
the objections of
Republican lawmakers.
Farm laborers currently
are paid overtime after
working 10 hours in a day
or a 60-hour week under a legal exemption
that dates to 1941.
Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, a
Republican, vetoed a similar bill two years
ago, but backers hope Gov. Jerry Brown, a
Democrat, will sign it.
We have overtime, eight-hour days, for a
very simple reason. People are entitled to
some period for recreation, for rest, for relief
from the work that they do, said Sen. Joe
Simitian, D-Palo Alto, who carried the bill.
Its fundamental questions of fairness, equity
and simple common sense.
Bill would end use
of mentally retarded
SACRAMENTO Lawmakers have sent
Gov. Jerry Brown a bill that would add
California to the list of 42 states that have
ended use of the term mentally retarded.
The state Assembly on Monday unanimous-
ly passed a bill to drop the term from legal ref-
erences and refer instead to intellectual dis-
ability.
SB1381 by Democratic Sen. Fran Pavley of
Agoura Hills seeks to end the use of what
many consider an offensive and outdated term
in education and social services.
Bill would ban employers
from seeking passwords
SACRAMENTO The state Senate has
unanimously approved a bill to prevent
employers from asking job applicants for their
passwords to social media sites.
AB1844 would ban employers from requir-
ing current or prospective employees to dis-
close their user names or passwords for sites
such as Facebook and Twitter.
The bill by Democratic Assemblywoman
Nora Campos of San Jose passed the Senate
37-0 on Monday. It returns to the Assembly
for a nal vote on technical amendments.
Proponents cited media reports that
prospective employers were reviewing job
applicants social media accounts to get
answers to questions they could not legally
ask.

The highly anticipated silver anniversary
of the Peninsula Golf Challenge will be
held Monday, Oct. 1 at the Sharon Heights
Golf & Country Club in Menlo Park.
The Peninsula Golf challenge is a vital
source of support for Friends for Youth, the
Bay Area nonprofit that matches at-risk
youth with mentors and also provides train-
ing and technical assistance to other men-
toring programs.
As need for mentoring increases both
locally and nationally, the Golf Challenge
plays a significant role in ensuring that
youth in the Bay Area and beyond get the
support they need to succeed. In its inaugu-
ral year, the tournament raised a humble
$3,000. Now in its 25th year, the tourna-
ment aims to raise $100,000 in support of
the cause.

ISLAMABAD A Christian girl was sent
to a Pakistani prison after being accused by
her furious Muslim neighbors of burning
pages of the Islamic holy book, the Quran, in
violation of the countrys strict blasphemy
laws.
A police ofcial said Monday there was lit-
tle evidence that pages of the book had been
burned and that the case would likely be
dropped. But hundreds of angry neighbors
gathered outside the girls home last week
demanding action in a case raising new con-
cerns about religious extremism in this con-
servative Muslim country.
Some human rights ofcials and media
reports said the girl was mentally handi-
capped. Police gave conicting reports of her
age as 11 and 16.
Under Pakistans blasphemy laws, anyone
found guilty of insulting Islams Prophet
Muhammad or deling the holy book, or
Quran, can face life in prison or even execu-
tion. Critics say the laws are often misused to
harass non-Muslims or target individuals.
Police put the girl in jail for 14 days on
Thursday after neighbors said they believed a
Christian girl had burned pages of a Quran,
gathering outside her house in a poor outlying
district of Islamabad, said police ofcer Zabi
Ullah. He suggested she was being held for
her protection.
About 500 to 600 people had gathered out-
side her house in Islamabad and they were
very emotional, angry and they might have
harmed her if we had not quickly reacted,
Ullah said.
Almost everyone in the girls neighborhood
insisted she had burned the Qurans pages,
even though police said they had found no evi-
dence of it. One police ofcial, Qasim Niazi,
said when the girl was brought to the police
station, she had a shopping bag that contained
various religious and Arabic-language papers
that had been partly burned, but there was no
Quran.
Some residents claimed they actually saw
burnt pages of Quran either at the local
mosque or at the girls house. Few people in
Pakistan actually speak or read Arabic, so
often assume that anything they see with
Arabic script is believed to be from the Quran,
sometimes the only Arabic-language book
people have seen.

TEL RIFAT, Syria Government forces
pummeled the battered city of Aleppo with
airstrikes and tanks and shelled parts of
Damascus and southern Syria Monday, killing
at least 100 people during a major Muslim
holiday, rights groups and activists said.
The violence escalated dramatically after a
one-day lull on Sunday, the start of the three-
day Eid al-Fitr holiday which marks the end of
the holy month of Ramadan. The renewed
fighting showed President Bashar Assads
regime is not letting up on its drive to quell the
17-month-old uprising out of respect for the
occasion.
In Washington, President Barack Obama
said U.S. thinking on military involvement in
Syria would change if chemical or biological
weapons came into play in the civil war. He
told reporters the use of such weapons of mass
destruction would widen the conict consider-
ably.
It doesnt just include Syria. It would con-
cern allies in the region, including Israel, and
it would concern us, Obama said, warning the
Assad regime and other players on the
ground that the use or movement of such
weapons would be a red line for the United
States. The U.S. has been reluctant to inter-
vene militarily so far.
Last month, the Syrian regime conrmed
for the rst time that it possessed chemical
weapons by threatening to use them in case of
any foreign aggression.

Seymour Keith Kreitman
Longtime Foster City resident S. Keith
Kreitman, 86, died peacefully Aug. 17,
2012 at the VA Palo
Alto hospice after a
long battle with
leukemia. He is sur-
vived by his daughter
and son-in-law, Kevin
B Kreitman and
Thaddeus Cooper of
San Jose; his son and
daught er - i n- l aw,
Keith Michael
Kreitman and Becky Moore-Kreitman
and granddaughters Kelly Marie and
Kerry Lynn Kreitman of Houston, Texas.
Born in 1925, and raised in Chicago,
Ill., he was a graduate of Northwestern
University, with degrees in political sci-
ence and journalism and advanced studies
in law, an education made possible by the
G.I. bill.
He was one of the youngest soldiers
sent to the front lines as a combat medic in
the European Theater in the nal days of
World War II, documented in his memoir
Happiness is a Warm Foxhole: Memoirs
of a Combat Medic. A member of a unit
that experienced more than 80 percent
casualties, he was awarded three bronze
stars, and two unit citations for heroism.
Yet he never considered himself a hero,
but a citizen-soldier, who held no illusions
about war.
He has been a professional musician, an
award-winning playwright, a top-rated
interior designer with an international
clientele and a world traveler. Upon retire-
ment, he returned to his journalism, the-
ater and political science roots.
After moving to Foster City in 1985, he
became tireless supporter of the arts, serv-
ing as a San Mateo arts commissioner,
hosting his Focus on the Arts television
show to support local events on Peninsula
TV, Channel 26, and reviewing Bay Area
theater, dance and symphony for
Peninsula newspapers for more than 15
years. In 2009, he received the Bravo
Award from the Hillbarn Theater for his
contributions to community theater.
Over the years, he authored a number of
political, human interest and current
events columns for Bay Area newspapers.
An independent thinker, with ties to
thoughtful candidates from both parties,
his most recent political column in the San
Mateo Daily Journal was widely read,
attacked and appreciated for its fearless
insights and historical perspectives.
A celebration of his life is planned for
early September in Foster City, and inter-
ment will be at Randhill Park in Chicago,
Ill. later this year. In lieu of owers, dona-
tions in his honor to the Foster City Rotary
Club or to the Hillbarn Theater are grate-
fully appreciated.
Michael Robert Sawyer
Michael Robert Sawyer died at the age
of 51 from a heart attack while in Mexico.
Michael attended
Parkside Elementary
and Bayside Middle
schools and graduat-
ed from Aragon High
School.
He will be remem-
bered for his gentle
soul, gregarious spir-
it, his thirst for adven-
ture and an unwaver-
ing compassion for others.
Michael was owner/operator of Trade
Printing since 1985, and recently retired to
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. He is survived by
his mother Anna Miller of Brentwood,
brother Joseph Sawyer (Jean) of Pebble
Beach, sisters Katharine Branshaw of San
Mateo and Bonnie Ann Sawyer of
Prunedale. He is also survived by
nephews Eugene Branshaw (Carolyn) and
Douglas Branshaw (Jennifer) and nieces,
Laryssa, Hannah and Kylee. His father,
Robert Hanna Sawyer, preceded him in
death. To honor his memory, a celebration
of life will be held 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug.
25 on Kelly Street, San Mateo. Should
you need the address, please call Janet at
(650) 863-2196.
Memorial contributions may be made to

fund.com/), which supports efforts to pro-
vide education, community development
and medical needs to the children living
on the remote islands of Fiji.

Humorist Phyllis Diller dies at 95
NEW YORK Some of the most promising talent in show
business was on the bill one day and night in 1955 at San
Franciscos Purple Onion:
Eartha Kitt and Alice Ghostley; Paul
Lynde and Robert Clary; a singer and
dancer with the stage name Maya Angelou,
and an eccentric former housewife, a few
years older than her fellow performers,
with the married name Phyllis Diller.
Angelous family, including two small
children (Clyde and Joyce), were seated in
the front row. Years later, she would
remember watching Diller and wondering
how her guests would respond to her friends aura of mad-
ness.
Black people rarely forgave whites for being ragged,
unkempt and uncaring. There was a saying which explained
the disapproval, You been white all your life. Aint got no fur-
ther along than this? What ails you? Angelou wrote in
Singin and Swingin and Getting Merry Like Christmas, a
memoir published in 1976.
When Phyllis came on stage Clyde almost fell off the chair
and Joyce nearly knocked over her Shirley Temple. The come-
dienne, dressed outrageously and guffawing like a hiccough-
ing horse and a bell clapper, chose to play to the two children.
They were charmed and so convulsed they gasped for breath.
Top Gun director dies after jumping off bridge
LOS ANGELES Tony Scott, director of such Hollywood
hits as Top Gun, Days of Thunder and Beverly Hills Cop
II, died Sunday after jumping from a Los
Angeles County bridge, authorities said.
The 68-year-old Scotts death was being
investigated as a suicide, Los Angeles
County Coroners Lt. Joe Bale said.
I can conrm that Tony Scott has passed
away. The family asks that their privacy is
respected at this time, Scotts spokesman,
Simon Halls, said in a statement.
Several people called 911 around 12:35
p.m. to report that someone had jumped
from the Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and
Terminal Island in Los Angeles Harbor, according to Los
Angeles police Lt. Tim Nordquist.
A dive team with Los Angeles Port Police pulled the body
from the murky water several hours later, Nordquist said.
Scotts body was taken to a dock in Wilmington and turned
over to the county coroners ofce.

Burlingame infomercial
Editor,
This Belmont resident read with
great interest the story in the weekend
edition of the Daily Journal that the
city of Burlingame was going to con-
sider spending $20,000 on a video to
promote the city (Does Burlingame
need infomercial? in the Aug. 18-19
edition of the Daily Journal).
Several years ago, I worked on the
Peninsula for a large corporation that
agreed to underwrite the production of
several of these infomercials for sever-
al cities all deeming themselves
unique. The infomercials at that time
cost approximately $10,000 each and
were referred to as economic develop-
ment projects designed to attract
biotech industries, high tech, retail
developers and, of course, shoppers. It
was a major feel-good moment for
those who participated in the produc-
tion of the infomercials, Chamber of
Commerce presidents, city mayors, etc.
The effort and cost netted very little
benet primarily because there was no
well thought-out, proactive outreach
effort. The mistaken belief by the vari-
ous communities was, if we build it
they will come. An infomercial should
be one component to an overall long-
term marketing plan which contains
measurable results. Those measurable
results should be reported back to the
public.

bor.

Offensive remarks
Editor,
It seems like a lot of Republicans are
upset because Vice President Joe Biden
insinuated that the Romney team was
trying to put black folks back in
chains. Frankly, as a conservative and
Republican, that statement did not
bother me that much. What I actually
found racially offensive was the politi-
cian who said of Barack Obama, You
got the rst mainstream African-
American who is articulate and bright
and clean and a nice looking guy. And
what insensitive, patronizing politician
uttered those words? Oh my gosh. It
was none other than the silver-tongued
Joe Biden himself!

Free speech
Editor,
The First Amendment protects our
freedom of speech, but reasonable
people have disagreed on whether it
protects incendiary speech.
This weekend in San Carlos, I had
to ask myself if it should also protect
incendiary photos when I ventured by
a woman seated at a table on San
Carlos Avenue, right outside the Bank
of America, proselytizing for her
belief that we should impeach Obama
by displaying posters of our president
with a Hitler moustache.
When approached by multiple
passersby, including myself, who
took offense to her portrayal of
President Obama as Hitler, the
woman only laughed. Why this
woman was given a permit to set up
her booth is unclear. Made me won-
der whats happening in less liberal
areas of our country if this was taking
place on the main street in a histori-
cally blue city like San Carlos.

Letters to the editor
By Minane Jameson
S
ome people say the San
Francisco Bay will never be
saved, but will always be in
need of saving. I hope thats not true.
But theres proof enough today that it
is. Retired salt ponds owned by the
Minnesota-based Cargill Salt Company
in Redwood City are proposed as the
site for thousands of new houses, even
though ponds just like them in the
Napa, Hayward and South Bay regions
have all been restored to thriving tidal
marsh.
In a recent letter, the Hayward Area
Shoreline Planning Agency joined the
Mid-Peninsula and Napa County Open
Space districts and a distinguished
group of more than 200 Bay Area elect-
ed ofcials, businesses, labor unions
and environmental groups in calling on
our neighbors across the Bay in
Redwood City to reject Cargills mas-
sive Bay ll proposal that has been
under consideration in their community.
HASPA, of which I am a member,
wrote that thousands of acres of San
Francisco Bay and its wetlands have
already been lled over the years and
the health of the entire Bay ecosystem
is affected by each
additional acre lost.
This intrinsic
resource property
should be restored
and preserved as
open space and wet-
land habitat.
The extent of Bay
destruction that pre-
ceded HASPAs founding in 1970 is
now widely recognized. For too long,
every Bayfront city treated our Bay as a
dump or opportunity for urban expan-
sion. Over the previous decades, resi-
dents watched as tens of thousands of
acres of the Bay shoreline, especially in
Alameda and San Mateo counties, were
lled in and paved over for trash dumps
and parking lots, shopping malls and
suburban sprawl. Nearly every Bayfront
community has been a part of this ram-
pant environmental destruction, result-
ing in the loss of a third of our Bay and
more than 90 percent of its wetlands.
Since that time, however, we have
turned a page. Rather than lling our
Bay, weve begun the historic and criti-
cal work of restoring our shorelines to
bring back wildlife and reconnect our
communities to the ecological treasure
that lies at the center of our region.
Here in Hayward, it has been thrilling
to see the progress in restoring hun-
dreds of acres of former Cargill salt
ponds at Eden Landing, south of State
Route 92. Many other communities
around the Bay from Alviso to Menlo
Park, San Francisco, Richmond and
numerous other places are working to
do their part.
We can only hope that our friends
across the Bay in Redwood City will
soon join us in experiencing the bene-
ts of a restored shoreline and healthier
Bay.
You can join me in adding your name
against Cargills plans to pave San
Francisco Bay at

Clowning around
T
he headline the original local version pur-
loined by other news outlets with slight tweaks
or so is priceless.
Clown had iPad stolen from Steve Jobs home
Finally! After years of objectivity and neutrality, it is
apparently time for Journalism 101 to throw out the
alleged and suspected. If calling the thief of the
Apple founders pur-
loined goods a clown
is fair game in the news
biz, why even bother
with any implication that
the guy in question is
anything other than
guilty or dumb?
No offense to actual
clowns; chances are a
vast majority work for a
living, albeit in face
paint and oversized
shoes, rather than taking
the ol home robbery
routine.
Unfortunately, at least for snarky journalists like yours
truly, the headline was literal in a way devoid of any
judgment. A clown truly did have the iPad; the alleged
thief had traded the tech gadget to an acquaintance
named Kenny the Clown to pay off a debt and rid him-
self of the hot commodity.
Back to non-judgmental headlines we go.
Yet, the headline still seems so perfect. The alleged
(look how professional I am!) robber is a clown. He may
also be other terms, most of which are inappropriate for
a family newspaper, but clown is such a catch-all. Again,
no offense to the honorable clown profession; please
dont grab 18 friends, shove yourselves in a car and head
down to the newsroom with plans to squirt me with fake
flowers or pummel my brain with artfully twisted bal-
loon animals.
Im simply promoting the use of clown in headlines
to clarify just how dumb, silly or all-around eye-rolling
many current news bits are.
Clown enhances stupidity: If admitted juicer Melky
Cabrera hadnt already jeopardized his career with the
San Francisco Giants but all of baseball with testos-
terone boosts, the latest scandal twist is a doozy. His
camp set up a fake website to promote a fake product as
cover for ingesting a banned substance? Me thinks the
fielder protest too much or protest too poorly.
Clown makes Foster Friess look enlightened: U.S.
Rep. and Senate hopeful Todd Akin of Missouri dis-
missed abortions for rape victims because and heres
the actual quote It seems to me, first of all, from
what I understand from doctors, thats really rare. If its
a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to
shut that whole thing down. Akin said he misspoke.
Quite true; he misspoke by opening his mouth. Perhaps
he should shoot for mime rather than clown.
Speaking of conservatives, how about Clown believes
temple shooting victims are Arab leaders. Yes, presiden-
tial hopeful Mitt Romney accidentally, twice, referred to
the Wisconsin victims in that sheik temple. Perhaps
instead he thought they were chic. Likely a tongue slip
rather than direct ignorance but still a bad move.
Not to be outdone, Vice President Joe Bidens bizarre
warning to a predominantly black crowd that the
Romney-Ryan economic plan will put them back in
chains inspired Clown makes nation yearn for
Quayle.
Clown copyrights dumb catchphrase: Ryan Lochte
please put away the grill, the pink Speedo, the jeah
and the trying too hard.
Clown reminds world of WikiLeaks, Equador: Thank
you, Julian Assange. When was the last time either of
these subjects were front and center?
Golf clowns pull up big boy pants, join 21st century:
This is how Augusta National Golf Club broke with its
all-male tradition and allowed two women, including
former U.S. secretary of state Condoleezza Rice to don
green jackets.
Any of these tales could also easily fall under the
heading Dumb, dumb, dumb but clown is better. The
word is fit for print, fit for sharing and fit for the cir-
cumstances. Mostly, though, the label reminds the sub-
jects their antics arent fooling anybody.

NEW YORK Stocks slipped
Monday in one of the quietest trading
sessions of the year. Worries about
European debt crept up again, and Apple
became the most valuable company of all
time.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
3.56 points, or 0.3 percent, at 13,271.64.
The Standard & Poors 500 fell a sliver,
0.03 point, to 1,418.13. The Nasdaq com-
posite index fell 0.38 point to 3,076.21.
With many traders and investors on
vacation, volume on the New York Stock
Exchange was light, just 2.7 billion shares
traded. The average this year is about 1
billion more.
In a monthly report, the German central
bank reiterated doubts about having the
European Central Bank buy bonds to help
struggling European economies. It
stressed that such purchases could carry
substantial risks.
Earlier this month, stocks rallied after
ECB President Mario Draghi said the
bank might buy bonds of some European
countries to lower their borrowing costs.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel also
seemed to soften her stance on the idea.
Were getting mixed messages at best
coming from Europe, said Jim Russell,
chief equity strategist at U.S. Bank
Wealth Management. Investors are on
the sidelines, and theyre still a little
scared.
Apple, the most valuable company in
the world, became the most valuable in
history. It hit a market value of $623 bil-
lion, surpassing Microsofts record from
1999. Apple is worth almost twice as
much the next most valuable company,
Exxon Mobil.
Apple stock rose $17.04, or 2.6 percent,
to $665.15.
Stocks had been inching up for six
weeks. On Friday, both the Dow and the
S&P closed just below four-year highs.
Mondays drop was the 11th trading
day in a row of moves of less than 1 per-
cent for the S&P, according to FactSet, a
nancial data provider. In same period
last year, amid fears the U.S. would
default on its debt and a possible second
recession, the S&P moved up or down by
1 percent or more roughly every other
day.
Other stocks moving sharply Monday
included Lowes, the worlds No. 2 home
improvement store. It missed earnings
expectations and lowered its outlook for
the year. The stock fell 6 percent.

Big movers

NEW YORK Apple is Wall Streets
all-time MVP thats Most Valuable
Property.
On Monday, Apples surging stock
propelled the companys value to $624
billion, the worlds highest, ever. It beat
the record for market capitalization set
by Microsoft Corp. in the heady days of
the Internet boom.
After a four-month dip, Apples stock
has hit new highs recently because of
optimism around what is believed to be
the impending launch of the iPhone 5,
and possibly a smaller, cheaper iPad.
Apple Inc. has been the worlds most
valuable company since the end of last
year. Its now worth 54 percent more
than No. 2 Exxon Mobil Corp.
Apples stock closed at $665.15. That
was an all-time high, up $17.04, or 2.6
percent, from Fridays close.
Microsofts 1999 peak was $620.58
billion, according to Standard & Poors.
The comparison to Microsoft does not
take ination into account. In ination-
adjusted dollars, the software giant was
worth about $850 billion on Dec. 30,
1999. Microsoft is now worth $257 bil-
lion.
Analysts believe Apples stock has
room to grow. The average price target
of 38 analysts polled by FactSet is
$745.80.
Despite the surge, Apples stock is not
particularly expensive compared to its
earnings for the last twelve months. The
companys price-to-earnings ratio is
15.6, compared with 16.1 for the S&P
500 overall. That suggests investors,
unlike analysts, dont believe the compa-
ny can grow its prots much from cur-
rent levels.
Microsoft had a price-to-earnings ratio
of 83 at the 1999 peak. The stock was
caught up in the Internet mania of the
time and investors believed it could
boost its future earnings massively.
Analysts believe the launch of a new
iPhone in a month or two will be Apples
biggest product introduction yet.
Scott Sutherland at Wedbush Morgan
noted that some investors sold Apple
shares last summer, when iPhone sales
slowed down as consumers started hold-
ing off for the new model. Those
investors missed out on a 50 percent
jump in the stock price.
This time around, investors are a lit-
tle bit smarter across the board ... they
dont want to be caught not involved in
the stock on this next iPhone launch,
Sutherland said.

You may pay more than ever for a late-
summer drive.
U.S. drivers paid an average of $3.72
per gallon on Monday. Thats the highest
price ever on this date, according to auto
club AAA, a shade above the $3.717
average on Aug. 20, 2008. A year ago,
the average was $3.578.
More daily records are likely over the
next few weeks. The national average
could increase to $3.75 per gallon by
Labor Day, said Tom Kloza, chief oil
analyst at Oil Price Information Service.
By comparison, gas prices stayed below
$3.70 in late August and early
September in both 2008 and 2011.
Retail gasoline prices have gone up
about 39 cents per gallon, or 12 percent,
since hitting a low of $3.326 on July 2,
according to AAA, OPIS and Wright
Express. Kloza estimates that U.S. driv-
ers are paying $149 million more each
day for gas than in early July. That isnt
what the sluggish economy needs, since
any extra money that goes to ll gas
tanks doesnt get spent at movie theaters
or restaurants.
The price at the pump in the U.S. fell
more than 60 cents per gallon during the
spring when oil fell as the global econo-
my slowed and turmoil in the Middle
East seemed to subside.
But oil has risen to $96 per barrel from
$78 in late June. Investors have been
worried about disruption to oil supplies
in the Middle East and North Sea. In the
U.S., there were problems with rener-
ies and pipelines in the West Coast and
Midwest, including a re in California.
Seasonal factors are also at play:
Summer blends of gas cost more and
demand goes up as families go on vaca-
tion.
Analysts expect prices to drop after
Labor Day, so at least drivers shouldnt
have to worry about a return to the April
high of $3.94 per gallon, barring a hurri-
cane or other unforeseen event.
Still, commuters and vacationers are
frustrated, said Michael Green,
spokesman for AAA. Its tougher to
budget a summer trip and discouraging
to see a larger chunk of ones pay check
going toward gas costs.
Summertime blues: Gas at August record

Two new studies offer emphatic
answers to much-discussed questions
about higher education: Yes, a college
degree is worth it, but yes, its the mid-
dle-class thats getting particularly
squeezed with student debt in the pursuit
of one.
Both studies make persuasive cases,
though each could be misunderstood
without important context.
The rst, released last week by the
Lumina Foundation and Georgetown
Universitys Center on Education and
the Workforce, seems to thoroughly
demolish the idea that the Great
Recession diminished the value of a col-
lege degree. Yes, recent college grads
have struggled more than usual to nd
jobs matching their training. But overall,
even as unemployment was rising past
10 percent, the authors found the econo-
my actually added 200,000 jobs for
workers with a bachelors degree. Since
the recovery began, its created 2 million
more.
Just as there wasnt really a recession,
at least in terms of job creation, for those
with college degrees, there hasnt been a
recovery for those without them. Nearly
6 million high-school-only jobs have
been lost since the downturn began, and
they are still declining even in the recov-
ery.
Analysis: New studies weigh college value and cost
Lowes 2Q results miss
expectations, cuts outlook
NEW YORK For Lowes, the improving housing
market is still a bust.
The nations second largest improvement retailer cut its
full-year-earnings and revenue forecasts Monday after
posting a 10 percent drop in second-quarter net income.
Revenue at stores opened at least a year, a key yardstick for
measuring the health of the retailer, declined 0.4 percent.
Lowes results were hurt in part by a timing shift in how
the retailer reported the quarter and a charge tied to job
cuts. But the latest performance also shows the companys
efforts to revamp its merchandise and prices arent work-
ing while its rival Home Depot is getting a boost from the
improving but still weak housing market.
In particular, Lowes return last summer to offering per-
manent low prices in many items across the store, instead
of offering eeting discounts, hasnt yet resonated with
shoppers who have been accustomed to seeing big sales
signs.

EPIC RIVALRY: GIANTS AND DODGERS TANGO FOR NL WEST SUPREMACY >>> PAGE 12
Aragon back where it belongs
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After a season hia-
tus, the Aragon foot-
ball team is back in the
Bay Division follow-
ing a 3-2 record in
Ocean Division play
last season, but fin-
ished with an overall
record of 9-3, which
included a win in the
Central Coast Section
playoffs.
Like all high school
teams, the Dons gradu-
ated some talent from last sea-
son, but coach Steve Sell believes his team is bet-
ter equipped this year to make some noise against
the best in the Peninsula Athletic League.
Its going to be a drastically different team
from last year, just on size, Sell said. The last
few years, weve had good running backs.
Finally, this year, we have some home run hit-
ters.
While the Dons may not be as big as in years
past, Sell believes this years version has the
speed to present matchup problems for oppo-
nents. The biggest change this season is at quar-
terback. Dominic Proia, who guided the team last
season, will be put in the backeld both offen-
sively and defensively to make way for junior Nat
Blood, who spent last season as an understudy.
Nat just wasnt ready last year. (But) he had
the best summer. He improved leaps and
bounds, Sell said. Im just incredibly impressed
with his progress.
Sell said Proia had no qualms with being sup-
planted as the Dons signal caller.
Dominic is ultimate team guy. He just wants
to play, Sell said. Hell start on defense and
he play both flanker and half back. Hes
extremely versatile.
Sell believes Blood, at 6-2, has the size to allow
the Dons to open up the passing game a little bit
more this season, which they will have to do
almost by default.
Were going to be more balanced this year. We
dont have as many (big) linemen, Sell said. We
cant pound away like we did last year.
Sell admits he doesnt have that sledgeham-
mer back that the team has had in the past.
Instead, theyll rely on a stable of smaller, quick-
er but just as strong running backs. Jordan
Crisologo, Kyle Kay and Marcell Jackson all saw
plenty of action last season and give the Dons a
veteran presence.
Crisologo, pound for pound, may be one of
the strongest kids weve had at our school, Sell
said. Hes one of those great high school backs.
Not real big right now, but hes very impressive.
Sell is especially anxious to see how Serra
transfer J.D. Elzie performs this season. Because
of CCS transfer rules, Elzie was not eligible to

Veteran squad has Panthers hoping
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Theres something a little different oating
above the Burlingame High School football eld
in 2012. You can take a whiff of it as soon as your
feet hit the turf. And it has Panthers players, fans
and coaches feeling really anxious about the new
season.
Theres denitely a lot of optimism in the air,
said Burligame head coach John Philipopoulos.
I think our kids learned a lot from last year
what to do, what not to do. I think the players feel
like were a championship caliber football team,
I think the coaching staff feels like were a cham-
pionship caliber football team. Doesnt mean
were the favorite (in the PAL Bay Division). Im
not saying were the favorite, but I feel like some-
how, someway, well be in the mix somewhere.
Were feeling good about where we are and where
were headed. But beyond that, its anybodys
best guess.
You cant
blame the
Panthers for
feeling opti-
mistic about the
new season. At
the start of the
2011 campaign,
the Burlingame roster listed one returning starter.
And while that 2011 team (2-3 PAL Bay, 5-6
overall) went through their growing pains, you
have the feeling that the 2012 version had the
potential to be something special. Fast forward 12
months, and the time is now for that Panthers
team the number of returners totals more than
20, including 13 starters.
Dont know, I dont know, Philipopoulos said
when told that just the sheer number of returning
starters has to put his Panthers team on the top of
the Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division con-
versation. I know we have some good kids com-
ing back, good experience. We have some good
skills players returning, our top offensive lineman
our quarterback and couple of running backs. We
got a considerable amount of returners so were in
a signicantly different place than we were last
year. Its a tough league and a lot of things can
happen. We havent done anything yet. So our
approach is, we have to work hard and try to
improve everyday.
The optimism starts up front for Burlingame.

Reviewing the past, previewing the future
F
inally! After
a long, slow
summer, the
2012-13 high school
sports season is slow-
ly ramping up with
the kickoff to the
football season less
than two weeks away.
And has been the
case for more than a
decade, the Daily
Journal presents its
annual San Mateo
County football preview, with our annual two-
a-days: two team previews each day leading
up to the Aug. 24 season openers for multiple
teams.
We can only hope the 2012 season was as
exciting as the 2011 campaign. For the rst
time in years, there were compelling races in
all three of the Peninsula Athletic League
divisions, while Serra kept alive the countys
streak now two years in a row of having a
Central Coast Section champion and five
straight years of having a county team make
the nals.
Last season, the best race came in the PALs
Lake Division. El Camino, Capuchino and
Carlmont all nished in a three-way tie for the
division championship with 4-1 records.
Based on tiebreakers, El Camino garnered the
divisions lone automatic CCS berth, much to
the chagrin of Carlmont and Cap.
The Ocean Division came down to nal
game of division season, with Half Moon Bay
claiming the championship when the Cougars
blocked a potentially game-winning eld goal
by Aragon.
In the Bay Division, Terra Nova thwarted all
comers in running the table and nishing the
year undefeated in the PAL. The Tigers
reward? A matchup in CCS against one of the
best teams in the state: Bellarmine.
The West Catholic Athletic League was just
as strong as usual in 2011, with three of the
ve CCS division titles being claimed by
WCAL teams: in addition to Serras Division
I championship, Bellarmine captured the
Open Division title while St. Ignatius topped
archrival Sacred Heart Cathedral in the
Division III championship game.
As is usually the case in the PAL, there was
a shakeup in the divisions, with Half Moon

Manchester United
loses opener at Everton
LIVERPOOL, England Marouane
Fellaini headed in a corner kick from Darron
Gibson in the 57th minute, giving Everton a
season-opening 1-0 upset win over
Manchester United on Monday night.
After losing the Premier League title to rival
Manchester City on goal difference last May
on the nal day of a trophyless season, United
lost at Goodison Park for just the fourth time
in 21 Premier League meetings.
I dont think anybody tonight was consid-
ering Everton at all, Everton manager David
Moyes told Sky Sports television. A lot of
people forgot Everton arent a bad team, and
Goodison is a difcult place to come and
win.
It was the rst time United lost a league
opener since 2004.
Robin Van Persie, signed from Arsenal on
Friday, entered in the 68th minute in his
United debut. American goalkeeper Tim
Howard got the shutout for Everton, coming
off a seventh-place nish.
Tom Cleverley came closest to tying the
score, but his shot was cleared off the line by
Phil Jagielka midway through the second half.
Its nice to send the Everton fans on the
rst day of our season home with a win and
not the doom and gloom we normally start
with, Jagielka said.
United was playing its rst competitive
match since becoming a listed company on
the New York Stock Exchange.
Also Monday, George Soros Management
Fund LLC made a filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission saying
it had bought 7.85 percent of Manchester
Uniteds Class A shares. The Glazer family
controls the club through its ownership of
Class B shares with 10 times the voting power
of the Class A stock.
Bumgarner throws a total gem for win
By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES Madison Bumgarner
scattered four hits over eight scoreless
innings, Pablo Sandoval
drove in both runs and the
San Francisco Giants
defeated the Los Angeles
Dodgers 2-1 on Monday
night to regain the NL
West lead by a half-game.
Bumgarner pitched his
second scoreless outing of
the season for the Giants,
who have won six of their
last nine games and 11 of
17. They erased the Dodgers half-game lead
in a division race that has seen the rivals fre-
quently swap leads.
Bumgarner (14-7) struck out 10 and walked
none to even his road record at 6-6.
Javier Lopez got the nal out in the ninth to
earn his second save in four chances after
Hanley Ramirez homered with two out in the
inning against Sergio Romo, preventing what
would have been the Giants fourth shutout of
the season against the Dodgers.
The loss spoiled a solid outing by Clayton
Kershaw (11-7), who gave up two runs and six
hits in eight innings. The reigning NL Cy
Young Award winner struck out 10 and
walked none as his four-game winning streak
ended. The left-hander helped his own cause
with two singles and a backhanded diving
catch of Gregor Blancos pop-up bunt in foul
territory near the rst base line in the third.
But he got little run support, with Matt
Kemp hitless in four at-bats with a strikeout
and Andre Ethier going 0 for 4 with two
strikeouts. He reached on a elding error by
Sandoval in the seventh.
Sandovals sacrice y in the rst inning
scored the Giants rst run. His two-out single
to short left eld in the sixth scored Angel
Pagan, who beat A.J. Ellis tag to make it 2-0.
Buster Posey went 0 for 4 with three strike-
outs and manager Bruce Bochy said before
the game that the catcher might either start at
rst base on Tuesday or get the day off.
Notes: The Giants have won 12 of their last
17 road games since the All-Star break. ...
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly returned
from serving a two-game suspension for argu-
ing with umpires last Thursday in Pittsburgh.
... Kershaw went at least eight innings in con-
secutive starts for the rst time this season. ...
Bumgarner improved to 3-1 in ve career
starts at Dodger Stadium. ... Bumgarners
other scoreless outing was a one-hitter against
Cincinnati on June 28, which he won 5-0. ...
Three-time Olympic beach volleyball gold
medalist Misty May-Treanor received a stand-
ing ovation when she was introduced between
innings. Her husband, Dodgers catcher Matt
Treanor, got congratulatory pats on the back
from his teammates in the dugout.

Oakland As cant silence Twins offense
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND Josh Willingham drove in
two runs against his former team, Joe Mauer
hit a two-run single and
the Minnesota Twins
snapped Oaklands four-
game winning streak with
a 7-2 victory over the
Athletics on Monday
night.
Brian Duensing (3-8)
struck out seven and
walked one in six innings
to win for the rst time in
three starts after consecu-
tive losses, helping the Twins bounce back
from a three-game weekend sweep at Seattle
to begin a 10-game road trip.
Darin Mastroianni had an RBI single and
added a sacrice y in the eighth and No. 9
hitter Pedro Florimon joined Willingham and
Mauer with three hits apiece for Minnesota,
which went 4 for 11 with runners in scoring
position a day after missing in all 10 such
chances in the series nale at Seattle.
Oakland had its ve-game home winning
streak snapped with just the clubs 11th defeat
in 37 games at the Coliseum since June 6. But
the As will have a new addition to their line-
up come Tuesday nights middle game of the
series. The team announced in the seventh
inning it had acquired veteran shortstop
Stephen Drew from Arizona for minor league
inelder Sean Jamieson.
As starter Brandon McCarthy (6-5) surren-
dered three straight one-out hits in the rst,
including Willinghams RBI double. Trevor
Plouffe also drew a bases-loaded walk as the
Twins took a quick 2-0 lead.
McCarthys night was done after he gave up
Willinghams third hit, an ineld single in the
fourth. Travis Blackley pitched 5 2-3 innings
of relief.
McCarthy, Oaklands opening day starter,
was knocked out after 3 1-3 innings for his
shortest outing since also going 3 1-3 on Aug.
12 last year against Texas.

of CCS transfer rules, Elzie was not eligible to
play football last season, but he denitely
showed some speed at the PAL track and eld
championships, where he took home the 100-
meter championship.
I didnt know if he was a sprinter who dab-
bled in football (or the other way around).
From what Ive seen, hes a football player,
Sell said. I started watching Aragon football
in 1976 (Sell is a 1983 graduate of the school).
There has never been a faster kid on the
eld at least since 1976.
Patrick Pauni and Jovanne Mejia-Ortiz will
anchor both the offensive and defensive lines,
while David Manoa who also sat out the
rst half of the season because of transfer
rules gives the Dons a big target from the
tight end position as well as a threat off the
edge as a defensive end. Theyll need to put
pressure on the opposing quarterbacks, as
well as be big-time run stoppers because Sell
said his linebacking corps is fairly young and
inexperienced.
The back end of the defense, however,
should be a big strength for the Dons.
Severson, Prioa, Kay and St. Francis transfer
Isaiah Atchan give the Dons an athletic, skill-
ful secondary.
I feel were well equipped for teams who
like to spread it out, Sell said. We have guys
who can cover.
Sell also said to expect the Dons to spread it
offensively, as well, but that doesnt necessar-
ily mean theyll be throwing the ball all over
the place. While the spread offense has
become de rigueur at the high school and col-
lege levels, it is still evolving. More and more,
teams are learning to run out of the spread and
attacking the creases in defenses.
I think our team will be a challenge to
defend, Sell said.

DONS
As a team known for pounding the football,
the return of All-Daily Journal offensive line-
man Benji Palu might be their biggest asset.
Hell anchor the line along with Austin
Flowers and Brock Harmon. Apparently, the
O-line has the potential to be one of the coun-
ties best considering theyll be opening holes
for a quintet of Bay Division quality running
backs Joe Mahe, Manase Palu, Derek
Noonan among those expected to carry the
load. Calling the shots though, is quarterback
Kevin Navas.
I think offensively, what we do best is run
the ball, Philipopoulos said. So were not
going to get away from that. That being said,
we do also understand we probably need to be
a little more balanced and have the threat of
throwing the ball so we dont have nine, 10
guys in the box like weve seen in the last
couple of years.
Kevin is fast, hes smart and he can make
plays when theyre not there.
Defensively, Burlingame has the luxury of
four returning linebackers, a returning all-
league nose guard and one of the leagues best
budding playmakers in safety Keoni Keahi,
who started at free safety as a sophomore and
played amazingly accoriding to
Philipopoulos.
I think the biggest challenge is we have a
little bit of inexperience in the secondary,
Philipopoulos said. Burlingame is likely to
start two new corners and the battle for those
spots is between a trio of players.
The special teams unit will be a strength for
Burlingame thanks to the return of kicker
Chris Graham. Hes probably going to be
one of the premiere kickers in the county,
Philipopoulos said. Were pretty excited for
that as well. Graham has proven hes a viable
scoring weapon watching him at practice,
you get the sense that 35 to 40 yard eld goals
are well within his range.
One thing to keep an eye on for Burlingame
is their schedule. They were 0-3 last season
on their brand new turf and come the start of
league, theyll have three straight roads
games. For a team with great potential, the
key to their season will lie in their start to
league.
I dont see it as an issue, Philipopoulos
said. I think this team is starting to embody
the approach of, well play anyone, anywhere,
at home, on the road, in the parking lot, on the
street wherever the case may be. If thats the
mentality we have, which I think were devel-
oping, then were going to be just ne, regard-
less of where we play.
Burlingame might have the pieces they
want doing exactly what they need by the
beginning of the league against Sacred Heart
Prep. But Philipopoulos was weary of any
type of annointing this early in the season.
Burlingame has solid preseason tests in
Saratoga and Mountain View.
Were still working on a lot of things in
house, tightening some things up,
Philipopoulos said. I just love the attitude of
the kids. It feels different. It feels different to
them, it feels different to us. Again, what does
that mean? Im not sure. But I think its some-
thing we can build on.

Augusta National welcomes Rice
and Moore as rst female members
NEW YORK The home of the Masters
now has green jackets for women.
In a historic change at one of the worlds
most exclusive golf clubs, Augusta National
invited former Secretary of State Condoleezza
Rice and South Carolina financier Darla
Moore to become the rst female members
since the club was founded in 1932.
This is a joyous occasion, chairman Billy
Payne said Monday.
For some, it was a long time coming.
Martha Burk and her womens advocacy
group rst challenged the club 10 years ago
over its all-male membership. The debate
returned this year when IBM, one of the top
corporate sponsors of the Masters, appointed
Virginia Rometty as its chief executive. The
previous four CEOs of Big Blue had all been
Augusta National members.
The battle ended in typical style for Augusta
National, with an understated announcement
that left even Burk stunned.
Oh my God. We won, she blurted out
when contacted by The Associated Press.
Burk was not the rst advocate to draw
attention to women being left out, but it was
an exchange with former chairman Hootie
Johnson in 2002 that ignited the issue. Feeling
as though the Augusta National was being
bullied, Johnson stood his ground, even at the
cost of cutting loose television sponsors for
two years, when he famously said the club
might one day ask a woman to join, but that
timetable will be ours and not at the point of a
bayonet.

Sports brief
WAC wont be a football
conference beyond 2012
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. The com-
missioner of the Western Athletic
Conference said Monday that it has
become apparent the league wont have
enough football members to compete
after this season, and his focus now is on
trying to keep the conference together
for other sports.
The 50-year-old WAC would be the
rst Division I conference to give up on
football since the Southwest Conference
dissolved in 1995, and it might go the
way of the SWC, too, and cease to exist
altogether.
It doesnt mean weve given up on
the idea of football for the future, but its
apparent we dont have enough mem-
bers in 2013 to play football, Jeff Hurd
told The Associated Press.
That means New Mexico State would
have to join Idaho and play as an FBS
independent next year. The WACs ve
other football members Louisiana
Tech, San Jose State, Texas State, Utah
State and Texas-San Antonio leave
the league after this year.
San Jose State and Utah State are join-
ing the Mountain West.

Bay and Aragon returning to the Bay
Division, while Jefferson and Kings
Academy moving down to the Ocean
Division. The Lake will stay the same,
with Hillsdale, San Mateo and Mills
joining the tri-champs.
There was also a shakeup in the
coaching ranks. Half Moon Bay, Mills
and Woodside all have new head coach-
es for the 2012 season.
With scrimmages scheduled for this
week and the regular season beginning
Aug. 31, here are some questions to keep
in mind as the season progresses:
Can Terra Nova make it four straight
Bay title in a row? Not since Aragon
won four in a row from 2003 to 2006 has
one team dominated the Bay. But since a
1-4 record in 2008, the Tigers have
steadily risen to the top of the PAL food
chain. Over the last three PAL seasons,
Terra Nova has compiled a 14-1 mark.
Given the way the Tigers simply reload
year after year, you can rest assured they
will have a say in the Bay Division race.
Can Sequoia rebound from a disap-
pointing 2011? Since taking over the
program prior to the 2009 season, coach
Rob Polous as taken the Cherokees from
also-rans to one of the best up-and-com-
ing squads in CCS. He guided them to
an overall mark of 7-3 in 2009 and fol-
lowed that with a CCS title-game
appearance in 2010 and a promotion
from the Lake Division to the Ocean
Division for 2011.
After a thrilling league-opening win
over Aragon, the Cherokees slid back-
ward last year, losing four in a row and
nishing at the bottom of the Ocean
Division standings.
With a slew of its top talent graduated,
well see how far Polous has taken the
program.
Can Aragon and Half Moon Bay be
competitive in the Bay Division? As a
stalwart in the Bay forever, it was shock-
ing to see the Dons play in the Ocean
Division last season. But after a strong
2011 campaign, I believe Aragon is well
positioned to again be a factor in the Bay
Division race.
The Cougars may be in for a bit of a
rude awakening. A new coach, albeit a
longtime Matt Ballard assistant who
was promoted to the top spot, along
with a number of key players graduat-
ed, means the always small Cougars
may have a tough time coming away
with wins in 2012.
If nothing else, however, Half Moon
Bay always punches above its weight
class and, while the Cougars may not
win a lot of games, they wont be
pushovers.
Can Mike Krieger turn around the
Mills program? A decade ago, the
Vikings were a perennial contender for
the Ocean Division title, but the program
has fallen on tough times in recent sea-
sons. A shift in school demographics and
a losing atmosphere have dampened
enthusiasm for football at the Millbrae
campus.
A former Mills assistant when his
brother Barrett Krieger was the head
coach, Krieger knows the challenges of
getting the best out of the Mills athletes,
but it may take a few years for the
Vikings to make a legitimate run at a
Lake Division title.
So there you have it a quick review
of the past, along with some things to
look forward to in 2012. Let the games
begin.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. Will Lucas threw a no-
hitter to lead Faireld, Conn., past New Castle, Ind., 4-0
Monday night at the Little League World Series.
The 12-year-old right-hander struck out 13 and also had a
two-run single in the fth. When it was over, he pumped his
st high in the air before falling to the ground as his teammates
piled on top of him near the mound.
Once I saw him in the bullpen, I knew it was going to be a
good night, catcher Biagio Paoletta said.
Matt Kubel homered for Connecticut, which will play
California in a rematch on Tuesday night. Connecticut lost the
rst matchup 6-4 last week.
Lucas said he was aware of his no-hit bid during the game,
in part because Kubel mentioned it to him in the dugout dur-
ing the game.
You know youre not supposed to do that, right, manager
Bill Meury said as he looked over at Kubel. The 13-year-old
rst baseman grinned as he nodded sheepishly.
One out away from completing the no-hitter, Lucas was sur-
rounded by his inelders for an impromptu conference on the
mound.
Lucas changed speeds effectively all night, and third base-
man Kevin Oricoli dared him to mix it up even more by throw-
ing a knuckleball.
Not a chance, Lucas said.
If it was hit, hed probably run out ... and tackle me to the
ground, said Lucas, an ice pack strapped to his potent right
shoulder.
Indiana was eliminated with the loss.
Mexico moves on at
LLWS with 4-3 win over Taiwan
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. Mexico manager
Fernando Rios was suspended for two games after a player on
his roster did not bat during a 4-3 victory over Taoyuan,
Taiwan in the Little League World Series on Monday night.
The punishment was announced after the win. The suspen-
sion begins with Tuesdays elimination game against Curacao.
Rios is not permitted to be on site for the games, but he can
still oversee practices.
Little League rules require all players make an appearance at
the plate.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA Brandon Jacobs
balanced himself on crutches walking
through the San Francisco 49ers locker
room. LaMichael James strolled through
with a backpack and a smile.
What at first
looked like at least
one if not two
long-term injuries
for San Franciscos
newest running
backs in Saturdays
20-9 preseason loss
at the Houston
Texans on Saturday
suddenly doesnt
seem so bad.
Im doing all
right, Jacobs said as he walked by
reporters. Cant complain.
Neither can anybody else on San
Franciscos side.
Coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday
that Jacobs left knee could be healthy
enough for him to start the regular-sea-
son opener for San Francisco (No. 4 in
the AP Pro32) at Green Bay (No. 1) on
Sept. 9. James, the teams second-round
pick out of Oregon, said he is ready to
practice already after injuring his left
ankle and riding a cart off the eld in the
fourth quarter at Houston.
Texans cornerback Kareem Jackson
barreled helmet-rst into Jacobs knee
for a tackle in the rst quarter Saturday.
The big, burly Jacobs a two-time
Super Bowl winner with the New York
Giants rolled over, his knee bent awk-
wardly, and he lay on the ground for
more than a minute until Harbaugh
helped him limp off the eld.
While Jacobs hobbled around slowly
at the 49ers sunny Silicon Valley head-
quarters, thats about the best he and the
team could have hoped for given what
was rst feared.
Brandon for the opener is possible,
Harbaugh said. Again, we just have to
see how the treatment goes, how the
body responds.
Now 30 years old, Jacobs ran for 571
yards and seven touchdowns last season
as a backup to Ahmad Bradshaw. He is
the fourth-leading rusher in Giants his-
tory with 4,849 yards, but saw his role
diminish with the emergence of
Bradshaw.
The 6-foot-4 Jacobs who lost about
15 pounds to meet his offseason goal of
dropping to about 260 had been
counted on to take over in short-yardage
situations. All four of his rushes in the
preseason opener against Minnesota led
to a 49ers rst down, and by all accounts
he had been ready to lighten the load on

As trade for Dback SS Stephen Drew
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND The Oakland Athletics
landed their veteran shortstop in Stephen
Drew.
The As acquired Drew from the
Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday in
exchange for minor league inelder Sean
Jamieson.
The trade, announced by Oakland in
the seventh inning of Monday nights
game with the Minnesota Twins, reunites
Drew with former Diamondbacks man-
ager Bob Melvin in his rst full season
as As skipper.
Itll be refreshing and a new start,
Drew said. Its a good feeling to go over
there and still be competing (for the post-
season).
Drew is expected to join Oakland in
time to play the middle game of the series
against the Twins on Tuesday. He recent-
ly returned after being sidelined for near-
ly a year with a fractured right ankle. He
sat out 137 games in all.
The 29-year-old Drew is batting .193
with two home runs and 12 RBIs in 40
games since coming back June 26.
Coming back, Ive been hitting the
ball well but havent been nding any
holes, he said.
Diamondbacks general manager Kevin
Towers said last month it was highly
unlikely the team would trade Drew this
season, saying he hadnt received an offer
for either Drew or Justin Upton that
would improve the Arizona club.

.CANBERRA, Australia An American athlete who took
part in a controversial black-power salute at the 1968
Olympics says an Australian parliamentary apology to silver
medalist Peter Norman might have come too late.
On Monday night, federal lawmakers in Canberra praised
the heroism and humility of the late Australian sprinter for
standing in solidarity with gold medalist Tommie Smith and
bronze medalist John Carlos on the podium following the
200-meter race at Mexico City. Norman was later chastised at
home for his stand, and reports suggested that he was shunned
from future Olympic selection.
Carlos told Australian Broadcasting Corporation radio
Tuesday that the disrespect, I think, mortally wounded him.
I dont think he was as bitter as he was hurt ... and I dont
think he ever recovered, Carlos said.
Norman, who wore the Olympic Project for Human Rights
badge as the Americans gave the black power salute, died of a
heart attack in 2006.
It was thought Norman was punished for his involvement by
being banned by Olympic ofcials for the 1972 Munich
Games. However, a spokesman for the Australian Olympic
Committee said Norman wasnt nominated for the Munich
Games due to lack of form, which Norman had apparently
acknowledged at the time.
Norman later quit athletics in protest over his treatment.
Carlos, who with Smith was a pallbearer at Normans funer-
al, said there was no one in Australia who should be honored,
recognized, appreciated more.
He cited his humanitarian concerns, character, strength, and
his willingness to be a sacricial lamb for justice.
Normans 91-year-old mother, Thelma, and sister Elaine
Ambler were in parliament on Monday to hear lawmakers
praise him.
It surprises me how many people know his name, and
those that dont do remember the photo, Elaine Ambler said.
Lawmaker Andrew Leigh told federal parliament on
Monday that Norman was punished for standing in solidarity
on the podium with Smith and Carlos.
It was a moment of heroism and humility that advanced
international awareness for racial inequality, Leigh said in
presenting his motion for an apology.
Another parliamentarian, John Alexander, said Norman was
ostracized by the Australian media and athletics ofcials.
The simple gesture to wear this badge on the dais as Smith
and Carlos raised their st in protest condemned Norman to
never represent Australia again, he said.
Norman set an Australian record that still stands when he
nished second in the Mexico City race in 20.06 seconds.

Aetna, one of the nations biggest
health insurers, claimed a bigger
stake in the burgeoning market for
government-funded coverage
Monday when it announced plans to
buy a leading provider of Medicaid
and Medicare coverage for $5.7 bil-
lion.
The Hartford, Conn., companys
proposed acquisition of insurer
Coventry Health Care will bolster
its Medicaid business a few months
before millions of people are
expected to become eligible for the
state- and federally-funded program
for the needy and disabled under
President Barack Obamas massive
health care overhaul.
It also will boost the companys
portion of business from the feder-
ally-funded Medicare program,
which covers seniors over age 65
and those who are disabled, at a
time when interest in these plans is
growing in part because the baby
boomers are aging.
The deal underscores the major
changes taking place in the health
care industry as a result of the land-
mark overhaul. It marks the second
time since the Supreme Court
upheld the law in June that a big
insurer has snapped up a smaller
company focused on government
coverage. Last month, WellPoint
Inc., which offers Blue Cross-Blue
Shield plans in 14 states, announced
a $4.46-billion deal to buy
Amerigroup Corp., and more acqui-
sitions are likely.
Aetna is the nations third-largest
health insurer based on enrollment,
trailing only UnitedHealth Group
Inc. and WellPoint. Coventry, a
smaller insurer, is one of the leading
providers of both Medicaid and
Medicare-based coverage.
States hire insurers like Coventry
to offer Medicaid coverage to their
residents. Coventry said last month
that its Medicaid enrollment had
doubled to about 932,000 people. It
also provides Medicare prescription
drug coverage to about 1.5 million
people.
Aetna ofcials said Monday the
acquisition of Coventry will help it
grab new business in a number of
ways after the overhauls coverage
expansions start in 2014, about six
months after the deal is expected to
close.
Thats the year when more people
will become eligible for Medicaid

and the government also will start providing
income-based subsidies to help people buy
private insurance. Customers will be able to
buy private coverage or sign up for Medicaid
by visiting online marketplaces that act like
souped-up versions of travel websites for
booking vacations.
You need to be in all of those businesses
with the ability to track your members
through their life stages so that you can keep
them in an Aetna product, Aetna Chief
Financial Ofcer Joe Zubretsky said. We
dont think the market fully appreciates that,
but were very focused on that.
Aside from the overhaul expansion, insurers
also see growth opportunities in Medicaid due
to patients who are eligible for both that pro-
gram and Medicare. States are starting to
move these so-called dual eligible residents,
who generally have expensive medical condi-
tions, into managed care programs that coor-
dinate care and cut wasteful spending.
The deal also ramps up Aetna Inc.s
Medicare Advantage and Medicare prescrip-
tion drug businesses. Medicare Advantage
plans are privately run, subsidized versions of
Medicare that frequently offer extras such as
dental or vision coverage.
These plans are expected to grow because
more baby boomers are aging and becoming
eligible for the Medicare. Medicaid and
Medicare Advantage currently represent small
slices of Aetnas enrollment. But the company
expects the deal to raise the revenue it draws
from government business to more than 30
percent, from 23 percent.
Zubretsky said the broad portfolio of busi-
nesses Aetna will acquire from Coventry
makes the acquisition a fabulous deal
regardless of how Novembers presidential
elections turn out and whether the overhaul
survives political opposition into 2014.
We believe this acquisition positions us
very well for all possible scenarios, he said.
Aetna will pay $42.08 for each share of
Coventry stock. That includes $27.30 in cash
and a portion of its stock. The price represents
a 20 percent premium on Coventrys Friday
closing price of $34.94.
Fitch Ratings also said the deal will benet
Aetna, but the ratings service placed the insur-
ers debt on a negative ratings watch. Fitch
noted in a statement that the acquisition is big-
ger and more complex than other deals the
insurer has done, and it will be nanced most-
ly by debt.
Aetna expects the acquisition to modestly
help earnings next year, not counting transac-
tion costs. Aetna forecasts a gain of about 45
cents per share to its annual earnings in 2014
and 90 cents per share in 2015 from the deal.

Its ridiculous for Big Ag interests to claim
they need all these taxpayer subsidies $9
billion in 2011 alone to feed people, while
they support a bill that would cut nutrition
assistance by $16.5 billion, Speier wrote in
an email to the Daily Journal.
Crop insurance
Speiers ofce says a more accepted crop
insurance system is replacing the traditional
direct subsidies to farmers.
Farmers pay private companies for crop
insurance on yields, prices and revenue.
Taxpayer money covers on average 62 percent
of farmers crop insurance premiums, accord-
ing to Speiers ofce.
The government doesnt cut farms a check
it pays the insurers directly but these
mega farms are getting below market insur-
ance courtesy of taxpayers every year, said
Speier.
Thomas Zacharias, president of National
Crop Insurance Services, recently wrote in a
letter to the editor of the Washington Times in
which he stated relying on crop insurance
rather than direct payments will save taxpay-
ers money.
This year, most farmers will be able to
rebound from historic drought, thanks to crop
insurance, he wrote. Unlike in the past, tax-
payers will not stand alone to shoulder the
costs. Farmers will pay more than $4 billion in
premiums, and insurance companies will
incur billions in underwriting losses.
The Congressional Budget Office esti-
mates getting rid of direct payments to farm-
ers would save taxpayers more than $66 bil-
lion over the next 10 years, but crop insur-
ance subsidies will cost more than $90 bil-
lion over that same time period.
Transparency
Under current law, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture must keep private the names of
the farmers who receive crop insurance subsi-
dies. Speier recently introduced the Crop
Insurance Subsidy Transparency Act, which
would require the USDA to disclose names of
farmers receiving crop insurance subsidies.
Its not fair that taxpayers foot the bill for
$9 billion a year in crop insurance premiums
and payouts, but we are not allowed to see
who benets from government funded dis-
counts the way we are able to see which
agribusinesses receive direct payments,
Speier said in a press release.
She criticized the past farm bill for primari-
ly subsidizing insurance of the ve big com-
modity crops corn, wheat, soy, rice and
cotton versus small fruit, nut and vegetable
farmers that are crucial to California.
We know Big Ag is getting the lions share
of premium subsidies compared to small fam-
ily farmers including our farmers in San
Mateo County but we dont know who the
big interests are, because they can hide behind
a veil of government secrecy, she wrote in an
email.
While the names of the farmers are not
available, the Environmental Working Group
has researched how the funds are allocated.
The EWG found that in 2011, more than
10,000 individual farming operations received
more than $100,000 in crop insurance subsi-
dies, with 26 farming operations receiving
more than $1 million in subsidies.
National Crop Insurance Services declined
the Daily Journals requests for comment on
Speiers bill. A representative from the
California Farm Bureau said the bureau has
yet to take a position on the bill.

WASHINGTON More women are getting
the word that they may have breasts too dense
for mammograms to give a good picture.
Whats not so clear is what to make of that
information.
New York this summer became the fourth
state to require that women be told if they have
dense breasts when they get the results of a
mammogram. Thats because women whose
breast tissue is very dense have a greater risk of
developing breast cancer than women whose
breasts contain more fatty tissue. Plus, it can be
harder for mammograms to spot a possible
tumor.
Monday, scientists reported a bit of good
news about yet another question: Do denser
breasts also signal a worse chance of survival?
A National Cancer Institute study tracked more
than 9,000 breast cancer patients and concluded
those with very dense breasts were no more
likely to die than similar patients whose breasts
werent as dense.
Its denitely reassuring, said NCI lead
researcher Dr. Gretchen Gierach, who reported
the results in the Journal of the National Cancer
Institute.
Yes, tumors might be found later in the most
dense breasts, but once diagnosed they appar-
ently werent more aggressive or harder to treat,
explained co-author Dr. Karla Kerlikowske of
the University of California, San Francisco,
who has long studied breast density.
That risk factor doesnt affect her ability to
respond to treatment, and treatment is good,
Kerlikowske said. In fact, researchers were sur-
prised to nd an increased risk of death only in
certain women with the least dense breasts
those who also were obese or had large tumors.
Perhaps it has to do with increased hormones
that accompany obesity, Gierach speculated,
stressing that the nding needs further study.
Whatever the explanation, the research illus-
trates just how much more there is to learn
about breast densitys complex role in cancer.
Theres a large proportion of women who
have dense breasts, but most of those people
dont get breast cancer, Kerlikowske cau-
tioned.
Mammograms can show if your breasts are
made up mostly of dense tissue milk-pro-
ducing and connective tissue or of fatty tis-
sue. Fatty tissue appears dark on the X-ray.
Dense tissue appears white. So do potentially
cancerous spots, meaning they can blend in.
Density tends to decrease with age. Half of
women younger than 50 and a third older than
50 are estimated to have dense breasts. Its not
clear how many know it since mammogram
providers give that information to doctors, not
directly to women.
The new state laws were spurred by cancer
survivors outraged that they werent told their
dense breasts might have masked the earliest
signs of tumors on supposedly clean mammo-
grams. Connecticut, Texas, Virginia and New
York have passed laws requiring that mammo-
gram providers notify women if they have
dense breasts when they mail out the exams
results.
Mammograms and dense breasts questions abound

New coupons aim to keep
people off generic drugs
By Linda A. Johnson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TRENTON, N.J. If brand-name prescription medicines
cost you as little as generic pills, which would you choose? A
few drugmakers are betting Americans will stick with the
name they know.
Theyve begun offering U.S. patients coupons to reduce
copayments on brand-name medicines and compete with new
generic versions of the drugs. The medicines include staples in
the American medicine cabinet cholesterol ghter Lipitor,
blood thinner Plavix and blood pressure drug Diovan along
with drugs for depression and breast cancer.
Pzer Inc. tested the new trend last year and now offers
copay coupons that can bring insured patients six of its medi-
cines for as little as $4 a month each. That includes Lipitor,
which was taken by more than 3.5 million Americans until
generic competition arrived last Nov. 30.
Experts predict more drugmakers will do the same for some
of their big sellers, as the companies weather big revenue
drops from an unprecedented wave of top-selling drugs whose
patents are expiring. The trend is the latest attempt by drug-
makers to hold onto business at a time when they are increas-
ingly under siege. Drug companies including Pzer, Merck &
Co. and Bristol Myers-Squibb Co. are squeezed by rising
research costs, the weak global economy and pressure from
Europe, China and elsewhere to reduce drug prices.
So, theyre trying a new tactic to temporarily slow the loss
of billions of dollars in sales to new generic competition.
On a big drug, every day that you can delay the sales drop
is a happy day at the drug company, says Erik Gordon, a pro-
fessor at the University of Michigans Ross School of Business
who follows the drug industry.
Developing drugs is very expensive. It requires up to a
decade of laboratory research and then patient testing, costing
$1 billion or more, to win government approval to sell a drug.
In return, the drugs maker gets the exclusive right to sell the
drug for about 10 to 15 years, until the patent expires. That
allows the companies to recoup those costs and hopefully turn
a prot.
After that, generic copycats sold by other companies ood
the market, costing just a fraction of the brand-name drugs
price, even though theyre chemically identical.
Often, one generic drugmaker has the exclusive right to sell
its copycat version for the rst six months after the branded
drugs patent expires. In those cases, the generics price is only
about 25 percent lower than for the branded drug. Other times,
there are multiple generics right away. Either way, once sever-
al generics are on sale, their prices usually plummet to about
90 percent below the brand-name price. Nearly all patients
then switch to a generic.
Lipitor, once the worlds top-selling drug, provides a win-
dow into the use of coupons.

MILWAUKEE Paul Ryan works
out and watches his diet, but a new study
shows that clean living can only go so
far to help people like the vice presiden-
tial candidate overcome a strong family
history of heart disease.
The study of 4 million people the
largest ever on heart risks that run in
families found that having a close rel-
ative die young of cardiovascular disease
doubles a persons odds of developing it
by age 50. This risk was independent of
other factors like high cholesterol, high
blood pressure and diabetes, and was
even higher if more than one close fam-
ily member had died young.
Ryan has said his father, grandfather
and great-grandfather all died of heart
attacks in their 50s, and the 42-year-old
Wisconsin congressman has cited that as
the reason for his devotion to exercise.
Id sure like to see him in my clinic,
said Dr. Patrick McBride, a preventive
cardiology specialist at the University of
Wisconsin in Madison.
Heart attacks can result from genetic
factors, an abnormal heart rhythm or a
heart muscle problem not just
clogged arteries from poor health habits,
said McBride, who had no role in this
study but has published other work on
the topic.
Whats important for anybody with
that kind of story is that they sit down
with their physician and get a very thor-
ough, detailed family history and try to
identify what factors may be present in
the family not just on their own think
they can x their problem, McBride
said. Exercise alone wont obviate this
risk.
Its not known if Ryan has had such an
evaluation, although McBride noted that
as a congressman, Ryan has excellent
insurance and access to care. A Mitt
Romney campaign spokesman said
Ryan was not available for an interview
on his health, and did not answer ques-
tions about whether Ryan is taking med-
icines for heart risk factors such as high
cholesterol or high blood pressure.
In an email message, the spokesman,
Brendan Buck, said Ryan has never
smoked, works out ve times a week,
eats healthy, gets regular checkups,
avoids sweets and limits alcohol con-
sumption.
The Wisconsin congressman joked
my veins run with cheese when he was
named Romneys running mate, but it is
clear that he takes the health of his arter-
ies seriously.
NBC News correspondent Luke
Russert recently described a January
2010 conversation when Ryan asked
about Russerts father, Meet the Press
moderator Tim Russert, who died of
heart disease at age 58 in 2008.
Ryan urged Luke Russert to increase
the cardiovascular level of his workouts
and commiserated about the bad after-
taste of fish oil supplements, which
some people take to try to ward off heart
disease, the younger Russert wrote on an
NBC blog.
Ryans family history of heart disease
is dramatic, and his efforts to modify
whatever risks he can control is very
wise, said the leader of the new study,
Dr. Mattis Ranthe, a scientist at the
Danish Ministry of Health.
The study involved 4 million people
from Denmark, which has detailed med-
ical registries on families dating to 1949
because of universal health care.
Researchers zeroed in on people who
had developed cardiovascular disease,
such as clogged arteries, heart failure, a
rhythm problem or trouble with a valve,
by age 50.
The chance of this was roughly dou-
bled if someone had a close relative a
parent, sibling or child who died of
cardiovascular disease before age 60.
Losing two or more close relatives to
cardiovascular disease by age 60 more
than tripled the odds that someone
would develop it before age 50.
Having a less-immediate family mem-
ber, such as a grandparent, die young of
cardiovascular disease also modestly
increased a persons risk of early-onset
heart disease by 19 percent. As the
number of early deaths in a family rose
and the age at which they died fell, a per-
sons risk of early heart disease rose up
to 10-fold, researchers found.
The Danish Heart Foundation paid for
the study, which was published Monday
in the Journal of the American College
of Cardiology.
Dr. Svati Shah, medical director of
Duke Universitys adult cardiovascular
genetics clinic, noted that researchers
saw a strong risk from family history
even after taking into account traditional
heart hazards such as high cholesterol
and high blood pressure.

ranging crackdown since 2007 on insid-
er trading by federal authorities. Nearly
all of those charged have pleaded guilty
or been convicted at trial.
Sentencing was set for Dec. 20.
Douglas Whitman now joins the
grim procession of convicted Wall
Street professionals who decided that
the rules dont apply to them. The rules
do apply, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara
said in a statement issued after the ver-
dict. Mr. Whitman had a hedge fund
with his name on the door, with rules
against insider trading. He flouted those
rules, tarnished his name and now is a
convicted felon facing imprisonment.
Whitmans defense team declined to
comment after the verdict.
Prosecutors said Whitman made
nearly $1 million between 2006 and
2009 by receiving inside tips about the
earnings of public companies.
He testified that he was careful not to
make trades based on inside informa-
tion whenever he came across it, but his
definition of what constituted secrets
seemed elusive.
Whitman said he believed it was fair
for public company employees to give
traders general information or color
about how business was going, as long
as they didnt give up exact numbers
about revenue, profits and guidance
before they were released publicly.
Over three weeks, jurors heard testi-
mony that Whitmans hedge fund made
trades from 2007 to 2009 based on
inside information related to Google
Inc., Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
and Polycom Inc.
Among witnesses for the government
was Roomy Khan, of Fort Lauderdale,
Fla., who once lived near Whitman in
Atherton.
She said he was almost hounding
me for inside information from a close
contact at Polycom, a telecommunica-
tions company. Whitman testified his
firm realized $362,172 in profits on
Polycom shares during the period the
government alleged Khan gave him
secrets.
The government played audio tapes
for jurors of phone conversations
between Khan and Whitman. In one
recorded call, Whitman refers to Khan
as Miss Google after he made rough-
ly a half-million dollars on tips the gov-
ernment said he got from Khan.
Whitman was convicted of two
counts of securities fraud and two addi-
tional counts of conspiracy to commit
securities fraud. The charges carry a
potential penalty of up to 50 years in
prison, but his sentence will likely be
much less.
So far, the longest prison sentence to
result from the Manhattan probe was 11
years given to Raj Rajaratnam, a one-
time billionaire and Manhattan hedge
fund founder who prosecutors say made
as much as $75 million trading illegal-
ly.

refused to come out.
Authorities came looking for
Caballero, 30, after receiving a public tip
based on released video footage from
one of the robberies. The suspect in the
photo matched Caballeros drivers
license photo and they tracked him to a
home at 3080 Williams Ave. near Third
Avenue. Caballero exited the home in
the morning but, after spotting police,
went back inside where he stayed until
6:30 p.m. after hours of dealing with cri-
sis negotiators. The incident stalled
Caltrain in Redwood City briey and
police blocked off about three blocks
around the home as neighbors watched
from the street.
Caballero is charged in a string of ve
robberies that started Aug. 7 at the
Willow Street Market. He is also sus-
pected of robbing the Panaderia
Michoacan Market on Middleeld Road
Aug. 8; El Paisano Carniceria and
Market on Middleeld Road Aug. 9; and
a gas station on Fifth Avenue, police
said.
Last Tuesday, the Mi Hacienda
Taqueria on Second Avenue was also
robbed and Caballero is considered the
prime suspect in that case, according to
police.
Caballero pulled out a black pellet gun
and demanded cash, police said.
Caballero faces approximately nine
years if convicted although he would be
looking at closer to the upper 30s had he
used an actual weapon instead of a pellet
gun.
I guess the message is dont carry a
real gun, Wagstaffe said.
On Monday, Cabellero held off on
pleas to the charges and asked for a
court-appointed attorney.
He remains in custody in lieu of
$250,000 bail and returns to court Aug.
27 to enter a plea.

admission standards. NDNU has a need-
blind admission policy, and KIPP staff
will work with students to access nan-
cial aid.
Its really serendipitous. Its a natural
t for us, Hernan Bucheli, vice presi-
dent of external affairs for Notre Dame,
said of the partnership.
KIPP offers mentoring to alumni
which will be an added layer to the sup-
port programs already offered at the
Belmont school for rst-generation col-
lege students, Bucheli said.
David Ling, alumni affairs director for
KIPP Bay Area Schools, agreed. Ling
said building such partnerships only fur-
thers what the charter organization
hopes to do help students be prepared
for college and also navigate the process
of enrolling. By working together, Ling
said KIPP students will become more
aware of their local options.
By this fall, ve KIPP alums will be
attending NDNU. Among them is 19-
year-old Francisco De Leon Zarate. De
Leon Zarate will soon be a sophomore
studying psychology with a minor in
business. He chose Notre Dame because
he liked the small school environment at
KIPP.
De Leon Zrate, a graduate of KIPP
King Collegiate High School in San
Lorenzo, noted having lots of support at
KIPP.
I personally love a little community,
he said.
Even before the partnership, De Leon
Zrate noted he found a similarly sup-
portive environment at Notre Dame,
which offers support for rst-generation
students. De Leon Zrate is indeed the
rst in his family to go to college.
Many KIPP students are rst-genera-
tion college students. For the Bay Area
K-12 KIPP schools, more than 85 per-
cent have gone to college compared to
46 percent from similar low-income
communities. KIPP alumni will partici-
pate in NDNUs Gen-1 Program, which
provides first-generation college stu-
dents with student mentors, study skills
classes, nancial and career seminars
and other aid. KIPP alumni attending
NDNU will also receive student coach-
ing and mentoring through the universi-
tys InsideTrack program. InsideTrack
debuted this spring with a select group
of students. This fall, the entire freshman
class will start begin the coaching pro-
gram, which offers one-on-one coaching
services to the student cohorts.

NDNU
TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 2012
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Chores assigned to you
wont be as burdensome as you might suppose. A
little positive thinking on your behalf could consider-
ably brighten your outlook.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- There is much more
to life than merely its material aspects. If you allow
yourself to dwell on what you dont have, chances are
youll miss out on the fner things available to you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Doing things others
think much too diffcult to manage will provide you
with enormous gratifcation. You wont retreat just
because of some challenging developments.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Make plans to get out
with some of your friends and keep yourself busy. If
you become too introspective or totally withdrawn,
theres a good chance that depression will set in.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be hopeful and
positive, but also realistic -- especially if youre
involved in some type of new endeavor. You cant be
too conservative when making projections.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You must not slack
off, no matter how many diffcult obstacles confront
you in your pursuit of an important objective. Victory
is achievable when youre tenacious.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Being too stiff-necked
or uncompromising will severely limit your opportuni-
ties. Keep an open mind, and be tolerant with those
who arent as smart as you are.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Be exceptionally care-
ful about volunteering to do something for another.
Theres a strong possibility that you could be getting
in way over your head.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Its a waste of time
to attempt to win the support of someone who dia-
metrically opposes your position. Work around this
individual and seek out your allies elsewhere.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- A days work for a
days pay is the motto that you should be most
aware of. There arent any free rides coming your
way, but hard work will pay off well.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Because you like people
so much, usually you do your very best to maintain a
harmonious relationship with everybody. Today, you
might have to deal with someone youre not ready
to forgive.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Faulty methods or pro-
cedures will thwart you in your quest for accomplish-
ment. The reason will be obvious to everybody, but
youre unlikely to take any advice.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Elizabeth Ann Murphy
Case Number 122627
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Elizabeth Ann Murphy,
aka Betty Ann Murphy. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by Robert W. Bra-
dy in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Robert W. Brady
be appointed as personal representative
to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This
athourity will allow the personal repre-
sentative to take many actions without
obtaining court approval. Before taking
certain very important actions, however,
the personal representative will be re-
quired to give notice to interested per-
sons unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority will
be granted unless an interested person
files an objection to the petition and
shows good cause why the court should
not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: September 24,
2012 at 9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, 1st Floor, Redwood
City, CA 94063. If you object to the
granting of the petition, you should ap-
pear at the hearing and state your objec-
tions or file written objections with the
court before the hearing. Your appear-
ance may be in person or by your attor-
ney. If you are a creditor or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within four months from the
date of first issuance of letters as provid-
ed in Probate Code section 9100. The
time for filing claims will not expire before
four months from the hearing date no-
ticed above. You may examine the file
kept by the court. If you are a person in-
terested in the estate, you may file with
the court a Request for Special Notice
(form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of any
petition or account as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the
court clerk.
