JURY DECIDES SAMSUNG MUST PAY $1.05B

Jail planners are looking at two
possible designs for the new facility
one that keeps both administra-
tion and inmates in a single building
and another that splits the functions
in two but both share many ele-
ments like natural light, plenty of
space for programs and areas for
children to visit.
On Tuesday, the Board of
Supervisors will
get a rst look at
the two primary
options which
are still a work
in progress but a
fairly strong
idea of the nal
576-bed prod-
uct. Sheriff
Greg Munks
said hes not really looking for spe-
cic direction there is no vote
and his presentation is billed as an
update, not a planning workshop
but welcomes any feedback.
The first option is a low-rise
building conguration with admin-
istrative/support services on the
ground oor and inmate housing
above. The second possibility is a
mid-rise building conguration with
administrative/support services in a
two-story structure separate from
inmate housing which will be locat-
ed in a three-story building.
Munks said both options incorpo-
rate design elements that grew from
a visioning workshop earlier this
year natural light for inmates and
staff, separation of male and female
inmates, green areas on the interior
and exterior of the facility, robust
programming space, use of glass in
public spaces and visiting areas for
children.
Munks favors the second option
and said after meeting with supervi-
sors has a sense they may, too.
The housing is on top of each
other and in doing so it gives us a
little more space on the ground.
Where we put the transitional area is
also better in option two ... there is
just more opportunity for a nice
project, Munks said.
The second option would also
have the warm shell unnished
space for future use on the second
oor and can be designed with a

A judge Friday refused to delay
the preliminary hearing of a
Japanese vice counsel charged yes-
terday with abusing his wife repeat-
edly during their 18-month mar-
riage, allegedly knocking her tooth
out, stomping on her and stabbing
her hand with a screwdriver.
The attorney for Yoshiaki Nagaya,
32, said he needed more investiga-
tion preparation time to defend his
client against 17 felony counts of
domestic violence and assault.
However, Judge
Lisa Novak
sided with the
pr os ecut i ons
opposition, rul-
ing that the
defense did not
present good
cause for a post-
ponement.
The prelimi-
nary hearing is set for Monday, Aug.

Twitter as a learning tool?
The San Mateo County Ofce of
Education says yes. Using hashtags to
mark words can allow for people to
remotely be part of any conversation
a lesson shared with educators,
elected ofcials and school leaders
Friday during the debut of the state-of-
the-art STEM Center, a professional
development center for educators in
the areas of science, technology, engi-
neering and mathematics.
As the repertoire of technology that
can be utilized in the classroom grows,
it becomes more important to offer
support with training, said County
Superintendent Anne Campbell.
STEM education is a sequence of
courses or program of study that pre-
pares students, including underrepre-
sented groups, for successful employ-
ment and post-secondary education
that require different and more techni-
cally sophisticated skills and enables
them to become competent, capable
citizens in our technology-driven,
democratic society, according to the
California Department of Education.

If youre walking down B Street
in downtown San Mateo, get ready
to carefully maneuver your way
through the crowded sidewalk as
people line up to sip custom tea
drinks at the booming new tea store,
Tpumps.
Offering hot tea, avored iced
teas, milk teas and smoothies, all
using tea brewed from loose-leaf tea
leaves, the business has taken a new
approach to the popular milk tea
franchise by making it an individ-
ual, made-to-order experience with
quality ingredients.
The business at 106 S. B St.
opened in June 2011 and has since
garnered the many patrons from all
over the Bay Area, from San
Francisco to San Jose said manager,
Yvonne Liu. The popularity has
stemmed from the use of real tea
leaves for brewing and freshly
cooked boba, small tapioca pearls
that are added to many of the drinks.
Some of my friends told me I
had to go, said Vita Castaneda-
Morgan, a Foster City resident who
found out about Tpumps after she
saw friends tagging themselves at
the business on Facebook. Word of
mouth has been by far the best pro-
moter of business, said owner Alex
Su, thanks to his focus on sharing
quality tea.
Im happy and grateful that peo-
ple enjoy the drinks, Su said.
The tea leaves they use, with
many varieties from green and black
tea to oolong and tin kwan yin,
come from Taiwan and new batches
are brewed regularly, along with the
tapioca pearls that are cooked by the
Tpumps is all the rage

As late-night patrons gather at Tpumps for a fresh-brewed tea drink, a never-ending line forms out the door
and onto B Street in downtown SanMateo. People come from all over the Bay Area for the specialty drinks.

Purse thief chased
down Laurel Street
A womans purse was stolen through an open
window while she dined at Baklava on Laurel
Street in San Carlos Friday afternoon.
About 12:38 p.m. police were called to respond
to a strong-arm robbery. The suspect, described as
a 15-year-old white teen in a black shirt, black
pants and red hat, reportedly reached in through an
open window and stole the womans purse, said
Sheriffs Ofce spokesman Lt. Larry Schumaker.
The woman chased after the victim. Others
joined in the chase. Ultimately, the teen jumped
into a car that looked like a 2000 silver Chevrolet
Monte Carlo in the parking lot behind Town
restaurant.

Charity president pleads
not guilty to embezzling
A man accused of taking about
$68,000 from the Daly City charity
that he led for 12 years and gambling
it on horses pleaded not guilty
Thursday to embezzling charges,
according to prosecutors.
Ruperto Reyes, 74, was president of
the nonprot Luzon Visayas
Mindanao Association, a Filipino-
American organization intended to
provide aid to local community mem-
bers, from August 2000 to June 2012,
according to the San Mateo County
District Attorneys Ofce.
The group raised around $73,000
over the years but only distributed
around $5,000. When other board
members at the nonprot began ask-
ing to see the books earlier this year,
Reyes allegedly delayed them and
made excuses, prosecutors said.
Eventually, board members went to
the bank and discovered that a bank
account that should have held around
$68,000 contained only $19.
When confronted, Reyes apolo-
gized and promised to pay the money
back, but only paid $2,500, prosecu-
tors said.
After board members went to
police, detectives determined that
Reyes had used the accounts ATM
card 188 times to make withdrawals at
the Jockey Club in San Mateo, a facil-
ity for betting on horse racing.
Reyes pleaded not guilty to the
embezzling charges Thursday and was
assigned an attorney. He was released
on his own recognizance and is sched-
uled to return to court Nov. 7 for a pre-
liminary hearing, prosecutors said.
Caltrain expecting high

able at 511.org/Americascup.
Passengers should plan their
return trips carefully by arriving at
the station well before the trains
scheduled departure time. The last
Saturday train leaves San Francisco

Sheriffs deputies have also
reported an increase in crab poach-
ing on the coast the past fw weeks.
On Aug. 22, sheriffs deputies
noticed several vehicle parked at the
Tunitas Beach turnout on Highway
1 north of La Honda Road. Deputies
were suspicious because of the late
hour and saw numerous people sh-
ing for crab at the beach below. At
around midnight, deputies and of-
cials from the Department of Fish
and Game cited 13 with a ne rang-
ing from $400-$900.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO Lawmakers on Friday
sent Gov. Jerry Brown a bill that would protect
illegal immigrants who commit minor infrac-
tions from deportation.
AB1081, known as the Trust Act, would
allow California to opt out of some parts of the
federal Secure Communities program. That
program requires local law enforcement of-
cers to check the ngerprints of people they
arrest against a federal immigration database
and hold those who are in the country illegally.
Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San
Francisco, said the policy wastes resources and
drives a wedge between immigrants and law
enforcement agencies.
Victims of crime, including domestic vio-
lence, are fearful of risking separation from
their families and deportation, he said.
Several GOP lawmakers spoke against the
bill Friday, saying it would take away an
important tool for ridding California of law-
breakers.
This has become the be-kind-to-criminals
Legislature, said Assemblyman Jim Nielson,
R-Gerber.
AB1081 passed the Assembly on a party
line, 44-23 vote after a lengthy debate.
As the debate became more heated,
Ammiano said some of the bills Republican
opponents had been in the sun too long build-
ing that silly fence, drawing a reprimand from
Democratic house leadership.
The Trust Act would prevent local law
enforcement ofcers from detaining arrestees
for possible deportation unless the suspect had
been charged with a serious or violent felony.
The bill has been dubbed anti-Arizona leg-
islation, a reference to that states immigrant
identication law. Supporters argue that the
Secure Communities program targets other-
wise law-abiding immigrants who commit
minor trafc infractions, sell food without a
permit or are arrested on misdemeanors
charges but never convicted.
The federal government has deported tens of
thousands of people under the Secure
Communities program, with the majority com-
ing from California.
Since 2009, California law enforcement of-
cials have turned over about 80,000 illegal
immigrants for deportation; fewer than half
had committed a serious or violent felony.
Trust Act advocates have long expected Gov.
Jerry Brown, who previously served as
Californias attorney general, to present the
biggest hurdle to the bills passage. The
Democratic governor has not taken a position
on the legislation, according to spokesman
Gareth Lacy.
Bill would limit
deportations over
minor infractions
This has become the be-kind-
to-criminals Legislature.

NEW YORK Jeffrey Johnson hid behind a
car in his business suit and tie near the Empire
State Building, waiting for the man he blamed for
costing him his job. He put a gun to the executives
head and red ve times, then walked off with his
briefcase into the morning rush of midtown
Manhattan.
Minutes later, Johnson was dead in front of the
landmark skyscraper, killed by police Friday in a
chaotic confrontation that sent bullets ricocheting,
wounded nine other people and left sidewalks near
one of the worlds best-known landmarks spat-
tered with blood.
Police released dramatic surveillance video that
showed the confrontation lasted only a few sec-
onds. Johnson was walking rapidly down the
street trailed by two police ofcers when he
stopped, wheeled around and pulled out a gun.
About a dozen people ran for their lives, includ-
ing two small children who were just feet away
from Johnson. He pointed the gun at the ofcers,
who quickly red at him.
Johnson dropped his briefcase, fell to his knees
and then collapsed on the ground.
The bystanders likely were hit by police of-
cers stray gunre, some of it bullets that rebound-
ed off planters in front of the skyscraper and
grazed pedestrians.
The two ofcers red 16 shots. The surveillance
video shows Johnson pointing his weapon at
police, but its likely he did not get a chance to re,
investigators said.
Startled New Yorkers looked up from their
morning routines in the crowded business district
to see people sprawled in the streets bleeding and
a tarp covering the body in front of the tourist land-
mark.
I was on the bus and people were yelling get
down, get down, said accountant Marc Engel. I
was thinking, You people are crazy, no one is
shooting in the middle of midtown Manhattan at 9
oclock in the morning.
It was over in seconds, he said a lot of pop,
pop, pop, pop, one shot after the other.Afterward
he saw sidewalks littered with the wounded,
including one man dripping enough blood to
leave a stream.
Johnson, who neighbors had seen leave his
apartment in a suit every day since he was laid off
a year ago, had worked for six years for Hazan
Imports and was let go when the company down-
sized, police Commissioner Ray Kelly said.
Police were looking into his relationship with
the victim, Steven Ercolino, the companys vice
president of sales, who had traded accusations of
harassment with Johnson when he worked there.

COMMERCE, Mich. Republican Mitt
Romney raised the discredited rumor that
President Barack Obama wasnt born in the
United States, jokingly declaring no ones ever
asked to see my birth certicate as he cam-
paigned Friday near his own Michigan birthplace.
Romney later insisted the remark was just a joke
and not meant to question Obamas citizenship.
But the comment risked creating an unwanted dis-
traction for Romney in his
last few days of campaigning
before the Republican
National Convention begins
Monday. It came a day after
Romney caused another stir
by declaring that big business
was doing ne in the cur-
rent struggling economy in
part because companies get
advantages from offshore tax
havens.
Romney made his birth certicate remark at a
large outdoor rally in Michigan, where he grew up
and where his father, George Romney, served as
governor. He was joined onstage by his wife, Ann,
and running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.
Romney told supporters that he and Ann had
been born at nearby hospitals.
No ones ever asked to see my birth certicate.
They know that this is the place that we were born
and raised, Romney said.
The crowd of more than 7,000 responded with
hearty laughter.
But Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt
swiftly denounced the remark, saying Romney
embraced the most strident voices in his party
instead of standing up to them.
Romney was asked about his comment in a
CBS interview later in the day.
No, no, not a swipe, Romney said. Ive said
throughout the campaign and before, theres no
question about where he was born. He was born in
the U.S. This was fun about us, and coming home.
And humor, you know weve got to have a lit-
tle humor in a campaign.
The authenticity of Obamas birth certicate has
been questioned by some Republican critics who
insist Obama is not a natural-born citizen as
required by the Constitution. Obama released a
long-form version of his birth certicate last year
as proof that he was born in Hawaii in 1961. But
polls show some Republicans remain uncon-
vinced. A Pew Research Center poll taken in April
found 19 percent of Republicans, when asked
where Obama was born, said they werent sure,
and 6 percent believe he was born in another coun-
try.
Fridays remark came as top Romney advisers
were announcing convention themes designed to
feature Romneys personal side and life experi-
ences as he introduces himself to a broad national
audience with many who have yet to tune in to the
presidential contest. Its also an opportunity for
Romney to cast himself as a compassionate and
serious candidate for the presidency after a sum-
mer of unforced errors and tough Obama cam-
paign ads that have portrayed him as an out-of-
touch multi-millionaire.
The joke also threatened to undercut Romneys
recent complaints that Obama has been the one to
inject a corrosive tone into the campaign.
Romney gave Democrats another opening
Thursday when he attempted to sympathize with
the struggles of small business owners.
Romney jokes about
touchy birther issue
Mitt Romney
WASHINGTON Building upon its
fundraising prowess, Mitt Romneys campaign
began a secretive data-mining project this sum-
mer to sift through Americans personal informa-
tion including their purchasing history and
church attendance to identify new and likely
wealthy donors, the Associated Press has learned.
The project employs strategies similar to those
the business world uses to inuence the way
Americans shop and think. Now theyre being
used to sway presidential elections. The same per-
sonal data consumers give away often unwit-
tingly when they swipe their credit cards or log
into Facebook is now being used by the people
who might one day occupy the White House.
For Romneys data-mining project, which
began as early as June, the Republican candidate
quietly turned to a little-known but successful
analytics rm that previously performed market-
ing work for a colleague tied to Bain & Co., the
management-consulting rm that Romney once
led.
The head of Buxton Co. of Fort Worth, Texas,
chief executive Tom Buxton, conrmed to the AP
his companys efforts, which help Romney iden-
tify potentially wealthy and previously untapped
Republican donors across the country. The
Romney campaign declined to discuss on the
record its work with Buxton or the projects over-
all success.
There are no records of payments to Buxton
from Romneys campaign, the Republican
National Committee or a joint fundraising com-
mittee. Under federal law, companies cannot use
corporate treasury funds or resources, such as pro-
prietary data analysis, for in-kind contributions to
federal campaigns.
The effort by Romney appears to be the rst
example of a political campaign using such exten-
sive data analysis. President Barack Obamas re-
election campaign has long been known as data-
savvy, but Romneys project appears to take a
page from the Fortune 500 business world and dig
deeper into available consumer data.
Buxton said hes working for the Romney cam-
paign because he wants to be on the winning
team.
He once worked with a former Romney busi-
ness partner to provide insights, for example,
about where Petco should open a new pet-supply
store to maximize prots. In addition to Buxton,
the data-mining project was described to the AP
by a Romney fundraiser who spoke on condition
of anonymity because the fundraiser did not want
to face repercussions for describing internal cam-
paign processes.

Letters to the editor
The Kansas City (Mo.) Star
T
he drought and sky-high corn prices
are forcing federal ofcials to at
least consider doing something that
should have been done a long time ago.
Kill the federal ethanol mandate.
The law passed by Congress ve years ago
essentially says the industry will produce a
certain amount of ethanol every year and
American motorists will buy it.
The mandate curries favor with farmers
and farm conglomerates that produce corn to
be used to make the ethanol. Its a way to
prop up the corn market even while it does
far too little to drive down oil consumption
or petroleum prices.
The dry times of 2012 have killed large
portions of the corn crop, spiking prices,
even while the mandate calls on ethanol pro-
ducers to make more of their product.
Meanwhile, farmers who have herds of cows
to feed are draining their wallets to pay for
higher-priced corn.
Youd think Republicans who constantly
whine about government mandates would be
chomping at the bit to get rid of this whacky
incentive.
You would be wrong. GOP members of
Congress just like President Barack
Obama and too many other Democrats
continue to kowtow to the farm vote, as s-
cally illogical as that is.
Congress did allow one costly tax credit
for the ethanol industry expire late last year.
Thats progress.
Obama should use the opportunity to
waive the ethanol blending quota for this
year. And Congress in 2013 should get rid of
it for good.

I am sad to hear of the passing of Seymour
Keith Krietman. I never knew him personally
but, through his articles about politics and his
life, I knew he had to be a great man. His writ-
ings passed on a wealth of knowledge and
experiences that taught me a great deal. He had
the intellect to see through all the lies of right
wing politicians, revolting radio hosts and local
conservative writers. He had an element of hu-
manity that these spreaders of hate will never
understand. He was not only a student of his-
tory, but part of it. He evidently suffered with
leukemia and continued to write from his
heart. He was a renaissance man of many skills
and talents. I and many other readers will miss
him.

The real villians of
bank management
Editor,
This papers story California fund founder
convicted of insider trading in the Aug. 21
edition was about federal political appointee
Preet Bharara putting small-time Bay Area
businessman Doug Whitman in jail for the
high crime of trying to give the widow and
orphan investors in his tiny investment fund
another $25 per month each to spend on the
necessities of life.
What about Jaimie Dimon, Lloyd Blankfein
and the other top three levels of management
in the nations largest nancial institutions?
People who looted their pension fund share-
holders for huge compensation packages,
trashed the economy, got bailed out by their
buddies in the federal government, and con-
tinue on even today with their looting and
backscratching ways as if nothing happened?
What about Hank Paulson and Tim Geithner at
the Treasury, and Ben Bernanke at the Fed, and
every single U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission enforcement ofcial, who look
into the camera and piously state that this is all
absolutely necessary for the economic survival
of all those dumb rubes in the hinterlands that I
see out the window of my jet?
Whitmans only crime was being one of the
defenseless little people who could be easily be
rounded up and perp walked on camera by At-
torney General Eric Holder and his lackeys.
Doug Whitman paid the price for not being
part of the interconnected revolving door of
bank senior management, to federal govern-
ment senior management, and back again. And
picking up a $20 million package for each
round trip through the revolving door.
But oh well. This is simply the reality of the
times we live in. And reality is unchangeable.
American elections remain a unique version of
perfect cosmic justice democracy, where citi-
zens freely vote for the national government
they think they want ... and then get the gov-
ernment they actually deserve.

Natural selection
Editor,
Ms. Dorothy Dimitre, in her column Winners
and losersin the Aug. 15 edition of the Daily
Journal, is quite correct in her opinion that our
hypercompetitiveness in things like the
Olympics, business, achievement, lust for
recognition, etc. is dangerous and deleterious
to society. However, her speculation that these
institutions cause maladaptive competitiveness
is exactly the wrong way around. Xenophobia,
aggressiveness, territoriality are traits in our
genes that have led us to create forms of social
intercourse throughout human history.
Looking at this from an evolutionary stand-
point, I would put forward the thesis that the
traits noted above evolved from natural selec-
tion over thousands of years of human
existence. Until quite recently, those traits were
positively adaptive. They allowed the human
species to survive, thrive and come to dominate
the earth. Her indirectly stated plaint of we
shouldnt act that way, is understandable.
However, we are that way because its been
indelibly imprinted into our DNA. The sooner
humankind uses its formidable intelligence to
recognize this now maladaptive legacy, the
more likely it is that we can devise systems of
rewards that can control these destructive in-
stincts before they destroy us as a species.
It behooves us to remember that 99.9 percent
of species that have ever existed on the face of
the earth failed to adapt and became extinct.
You cant fool Mother Nature.

The ethanol mandate
Other voices
Realtors back
homeowners
assistance act
By Anne Oliva
H
eres a sobering fact: short sales in
San Mateo County comprise more
than 50 percent of the home sale
transactions.
The majority of those homes have second
mortgages and, of those
short sales, many are
occurring to stave off a
foreclosure. A federal
bill to help home own-
ers could not have come
at a better time.
The proposed legisla-
tion (H.R. 6153) is
known as the Fast Help
For Homeowners Act
and was introduced by
U.S. Rep. Jerry McNerney, D-
Stockton/Pleasanton. It will help speed up the
short sale approval process by requiring sec-
ondary lien holders (companies that handle
second and subsequent mortgages) to respond
to short sale requests within 45 days.
But heres the kicker: if the holder of a sub-
ordinate lien fails to respond within the 45-
calendar day period, the request from a mort-
gagor shall be considered to have been
approved by such lien holder.
As part of our ongoing mission to serve as
the voice for real estate in San Mateo
County, SAMCAR (the San Mateo County
Association of Realtors) is joining forces with
state and national Realtor associations and
consumer groups in supporting passage of the
Fast Help For Homeowners Act.
The bill is co-sponsored by a bipartisan
group consisting of U.S. Reps. Denis Cardoza,
(CA-18); Jim Costa, (CA-20); Barbara Lee,
(CA-9); and, George Miller, (CA-7) all
Democrats as well as Richard Nugent,
(FL-5) and Thomas J. Rooney, (FL-16)
both Republicans.
Congress will have a chance to demonstrate to
the American public that homeownership mat-
ters by taking swift action on H.R. 6153 when it
returns on Sept. 10 from its summer recess.
SAMCAR is supporting and urging the
quick passage of the FHFH Act as it will
require those who service second, third and
succeeding home loans to respond to short sale
offers in a fair and reasonable amount of time,
ensuring distressed properties are brought to
market, which will aid in the recovery of the
housing market and the general economy.
LeFrancis Arnold, president of the California
Association of Realtors observed: Short sale
transactions are difcult as it is ... when subor-
dinate lien holders refuse to respond to offers,
additional unnecessary barriers to homeowner-
ship are created. The FHFH Act will eliminate
this major hurdle. A recent lender satisfaction
survey by C.A.R. found that nearly half of all
properties sold as short sales in California had
subordinate liens (second mortgages).
On the national front, Moe Veissi, 2012 pres-
ident of the National Association of Realtors,
noted it has been actively pushing the mortgage
servicing industry for years to improve the
short sale review and approval process, espe-
cially in cases where second mortgages are
involved. Veissi said second mortgage lien
holders frequently hold up and/or cancel the
short sale transaction while trying to collect the
largest possible payout in exchange for releas-
ing the homeowners debt even though the sec-
ondary mortgage holder often gets nothing if
the home ends up going into foreclosure.
SAMCAR strongly supports streamlining
the short sale approval process for both pri-
mary and subsequent mortgage holders as it
will help close more short sale transactions in
San Mateo County, but more importantly, con-
gressional approval will positively impact the
quality of life in communities throughout the
United States and in San Mateo County.

Mateo County Association of Realtors, is a
Realtor and a principal in Marshall Realty in
San Bruno.

NEW YORK The stock market keeps
getting tossed around by the Fed.
Stocks opened lower Friday but reversed
course after a letter surfaced from Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke suggest-
ing there was room for the central bank to
do more to help the economy.
There is scope for further action by the
Federal Reserve to ease nancial condi-
tions and strengthen the recovery,
Bernanke wrote to California Rep. Darrell
Issa, a Republican, in a letter obtained by
The Wall Street Journal.
The Dow Jones industrial average was
down 30 points at its low but nished
100.51 points higher, at 13,157.97, its rst
gain all week. It was still the rst losing
week for the Dow since early July.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
9.05 to 1,411.13 but also snapped a six-
week winning streak. The Nasdaq com-
posite index rose 16.39 to 3,069.79, ending
ve straight weeks of gains.
In a typically slow August, without
much else to inuence trading, investors
have grasped for hints about what the Fed
might do.
On Wednesday afternoon, investors
pushed stocks higher after the Fed released
meeting minutes that appeared to signal it
was ready to take more action to prop up
the economy.
On Thursday, stocks declined when a
Fed regional bank president cast doubt on
the idea, saying in an interview with
CNBC that the economic recovery
appeared to be gaining strength.
Then on Friday, Bernanke shook up the
market again. His letter was in response to
questions from Issa, the head of the House
oversight committee, who had asked
whether it was premature to consider addi-
tional steps.
The Fed has several options, including
buying bonds, as it has done twice since
the 2008 nancial crisis, to try to lower
interest rates and drive investors into the
stock market.
Still, its debatable how much future Fed
action would help the market or the econ-
omy. On Friday, some analysts thought it
strange that the market moved so decisive-
ly on just an inkling about what the Fed
chairman might be thinking.
Whats new about what came out?
said Ann Miletti, senior portfolio manager
at Wells Fargo Advantage Funds in
Menomonee Falls, Wis. I guess the mar-
kets are dependent on having some com-
mentary about the macro economy every
single day.
For the most part, the market has been
hard to read this month. Without much
news, trading volume has been low, and
investors havent had much conviction
either way about the economy.
Of 18 trading days in August, only once
has the Dow moved more than 1 percent.
On ve days, it has been virtually at,
moving less than one-tenth of a percentage
point.
The turbulence likely lies ahead. The
Feds annual meeting in Jackson Hole,
Wyo., is at the end of the month. German
courts are set to decide next month
whether the country can keep participating
in bailouts for weaker European countries.
And the presidential election in
November, which will help determine
whether taxes go up and government
spending is cut next year, could throw the
markets into turmoil for weeks before-
hand.
People look forward to a lot of ques-
tions being answered in the months
ahead, said Tony Fratto, a former aide to
President George W. Bush and managing
partner at Hamilton Place Strategies in
Washington. But they dont have answers
today.
Bernanke sends stocks up
Wall Street
Analysts cut 2012 PC, chip shipment forecasts
NEW YORK What once looked like a good year for comput-
ers and chips has now zzled, say researchers.
IHS iSuppli said Friday that global semiconductor chip ship-
ments are set to fall by 0.1 percent this year. Thats down from a pre-
vious forecast for growth of up to 3 percent. Its the rst annual
decline since recession-colored 2009.
ISuppli said shipments slowed noticeably compared to normal
seasonal patterns in the April to June period. The weak global econ-
omy is one culprit, but most of the slowdown is in chips for PCs,
iSuppli said.
IDC, another research rm, detects the slowdown in the PC mar-
ket, too. It expects PC shipments to grow just 0.9 percent this year.
Thats down from the rms forecast of 5 percent growth issued in
March.
IDC says sales have been weak so far this year, and a bounce
from the imminent release of Microsofts Windows 8 may not be as
strong as it had expected.
Business brief
SAN JOSE After a year of scorched-earth litigation, a jury decid-
ed Friday that Samsung ripped off the innovative technology used by
Apple to create its revolutionary iPhone and iPad.
The jury ordered Samsung to pay Apple $1.05 billion. An appeal is
expected.
Apple Inc. led its patent infringement lawsuit in April 2011 and
engaged legions of the countrys highest-paid patent lawyers to
demand $2.5 billion from its top smartphone competitor. Samsung
Electronics Co. red back with its own lawsuit seeking $399 million.
But verdict, however, belonged to Apple, as the jury rejected all
Samsungs claim against Apple. Jurors also decided against some of
Apples claims involving the two dozen Samsung devices at issue,
declining to award the full $2.5 billion Apple demanded.
However, the jury found that several Samsung products illegally
used such Apple creations as the bounce-back feature when a user
scrolls to an end image, and the ability to zoom text with a nger tap.
As part of its lawsuit, Apple also demanded that Samsung pull its
most popular cellphones and computer tablets from the U.S. market.
A judge was expected to make that ruling at a later time.
During closing arguments at the trial, Apple attorney Harold
McElhinny claimed Samsung was having a crisis of design after the
2007 launch of the iPhone, and executives with the South Korean
company were determined to illegally cash in on the success of the
revolutionary device.
Samsungs lawyers countered that it was simply and legally giving
consumers what they want: Smart phones with big screens. They said
Samsung didnt violate any of Apples patents and further alleged
innovations claimed by Apple were actually created by other compa-
nies.
Samsung has emerged as one of Apples biggest rivals and has over-
taken Apple as the leading smartphone maker.
Samsungs Galaxy line of phones run on Android, a mobile operat-
ing system that Google Inc. has given out for free to Samsung and
other phone makers.
Samsung conceded that Apple makes great products but said it
doesnt have a monopoly on the design of rectangle phones with
rounded corners that it claimed it created.
Google entered the smartphone market while its then-CEO Eric
Schmidt was on Apples board, infuriating Apple co-founder Steve
Jobs, who considered Android to be a blatant rip off of the iPhones
innovations.
After shoving Schmidt off Apples board, Jobs vowed that Apple
would resort to thermonuclear war to destroy Android and its allies.
The Apple-Samsung trial in San Jose came after each side led a
blizzard of legal motions and refused advisories by U.S. District Judge
Lucy Koh to settle the dispute out of court. Deliberations by the jury
of seven men and two women began Wednesday.
Samsung has sold 22.7 million smartphones and tablets that Apple
claimed uses its technology. McElhinny said those devices accounted
for $8.16 billion in sales since June 2010.
Apple and Samsung combined account for more than half of glob-
al smartphone sales.
From the beginning, legal experts and Wall Street analysts viewed
Samsung as the underdog in the case. Apples headquarters is a mere
10 miles from the courthouse, and jurors were picked from the heart
of Silicon Valley where Apples late founder Steve Jobs is a revered
technological pioneer.
Verdict: Sumsung
ripped off Apple

Kings Academy will be young
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
There is good news
and bad news for the
Kings Academy foot-
ball team.
First, the bad news:
the Knights are
extremely thin on
numbers and of those
who reported for the
football team, a vast
majority of them are
sophomores.
Were going to be
real young, said Kings
Academy coach William
Gittens. About half our team is going to be soph-
omores. The participation just isnt what it used
to be.
Last year, we nished with 25 (players). This
year, its tough. Ill carry about 28 kids, but I have
a couple of good sophomores.
The good news, however, is the Knights should
be strong on both the offensive and defensive
lines, theyve moved from the Bay Division to the
Ocean Division, theyre changing their offensive
scheme and the future looks bright.
I wish I could have moved down two spots (to
the Lake Division). I think we could have com-
peted there. I think were going to struggle [in the
Ocean Division]. Were going to take some lumps
this year, Gittens said. But were going to make
it fun for the kids. Well surprise some teams this
year. Were going to be up and down but, the next
few years, Im looking to have some good
teams.
Gittens will nally get to scrap the double-
wing offense, which has been a staple of Knights
teams for several years, and move to a spread
offense. Gittens said his offensive coordinator
was not comfortable running a spread offense last
season and would fall back on the double-wing
by default.
This year, after spending his entire coaching
career on the defensive side, Gittens will take
over the play-calling duties. He realizes if he
wants to draw top-notch athletes to the Kings
Academy program, he needs to run an offense
that will be fun for skill-position players.
We probably should be running power foot-
ball, but we dont get any quarterbacks or wide
receivers (coming out for the team) because all
they would do is block. Now my job is draw
Menlo has division title within its sights
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Menlo School football team will never
intimidate teams as the Knights walk off the bus.
What they lack in physical size, however, they
make up with execution and precision.
And while last season ended with a rst-round
loss in the Central Coast Section playoffs, that
experience, plus a sizable group of returners, has
coach Mark Newton excited for the season.
Its looking good, Newton said. We have a
good senior class and that matters a lot in high
school.
As usual, Menlo will need good decision mak-
ing from its quarterbacks to properly implement
Newtons run-and-shoot offense. Unlike a lot of
spread offenses, Menlo quarterbacks have to
make split-second decisions at the snap to deter-
mine if the play will be a run or a pass. Newton
believes he has two signal callers who can make
those reads and both saw plenty of playing time
last year. Matt Bradley started the season as a jun-
ior last year before Jack Heneghan came in and
became one of the elite quarterbacks in the Bay
Area as a sophomore.
Newton said he has yet to decide who will start
the season opener.
We have two good quarterbacks. Theyre both
very good. Its difcult to evaluate the quarter-
back in practice without live action, Newton
said. I think theyre two of the best quarterbacks
around. We feel comfortable with either.
Whoever pulls the trigger will have some expe-
rienced receivers to whom to throw. Wiley
Osborne and Connor Statsny both saw extensive
action at wide out last season and have a rapport
with both Bradley and Heneghan.
We have a lot of experience coming back (at
receiver), Newton said. Were feeling good
about those areas.
While the run-and-shoot is known mostly as a
passing offense, the running game can be a secret

County football season begins with scrimmages
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As the warm-up clock on the Sequoia High
School scoreboard crept closer to zero, the
Serra High School football team took to the
eld for a scrimmage against Menlo-Atherton,
Sequoia and Encinal.
But before all the hitting transpired, Padres
head coach Patrick Walsh walked up the side-
line and had a hug with every single member
of his coaching staff. And former quarterback
Joey Erdie. And a couple of referees.
And with a big smile on his face, the defend-
ing Central Coast Section Division I champion
coach said, I love it. This just never gets old.
While the 2012 season is set to kick off in
less than a week, Friday was its unofcially
welcoming, with several county programs tak-
ing to the eld to lock horns against someone
other than their teammates dressed in a differ-
ent color jersey. A couple of miles to the north
in Burlingame, the Panthers welcomed South
City, Carlmont and Riordan for some presea-
son scrimmage action.
And if its true that you only get one chance
to make a rst impression, than Serra took full
advantage of that opportunity Friday afternoon
at Sequoia.
The Padres were the cream of the four-team
crop, head and shoulders ahead of the curve in
regards to their execution offensively and
defensively this against the second-best
team in Division I last year (Menlo-Atherton)
and a team in Encinal that gave them overtime
ts last season.
True, you cant hang too much on scrim-
mage performances. So Friday night served as
a nice jump off point for fans who have ques-
tions about the Padres, Bears and Ravens

NFL, 49ers sued
by attacked fans
SAN FRANCISCO Two San Francisco 49ers fans who
were attacked during a preseason home game against the rival
Oakland Raiders have sued the team, parking lot security rm
and National Football League.
Daniel Long and Gabriel Navarrette, both 26, claim the
defendants failed to create a safe environment for fans attend-
ing the game on Aug. 20, 2011, at Candlestick Park.
The previously unpublicized litigation was led in San
Francisco Superior Court in November, the Contra Costa
Times (http://bit.ly/OeEumk) reported Friday. A trial is sched-
uled to start Aug. 19, 2013.
Navarrette was beaten unconscious by a group of men in the
parking lot. Long was shot four times while attempting to
help his friend. No suspects have been charged.
The lawsuit, which seeks unspecied damages, says the
incident has affected both men physically and economically.
The 49ers declined to comment on the lawsuit, but in a pre-
pared statement said the team is committed to providing a
safe game day environment for all fans. That commitment has
led to the highest security level rating given by the NFL.
The NFLs attorney declined to comment, and an attorney
representative for Landmark Security said the companys
lawyer would not be able to respond, according to the news-
paper.
The lawsuit cites the March 2011 beating of San Francisco
Giants fan Bryan Stow at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles as
fair warning about security problems at sport stadiums.
There were two shootings, two serious beatings and numer-
ous alcohol-fueled ghts during and after last years 49ers-
Raiders game.
It prompted 49ers owner Jed York to ask the NFL to indef-
initely suspend future games between the two teams. The
49ers also took new security measures, including banning
postgame drinking and tailgating in parking lots.
Arizona coach Ken Whisenhunt not
quite ready to name starting quarterback
TEMPE, Ariz. Arizona Cardinals coach Ken
Whisenhunt says hes not quite ready to name a starting quar-
terback but indicates a decision could come soon.
It has to, because the Cardinals open their regular season in
a little more than two weeks at home against Seattle.
Speaking at his usual day-after news conference on Friday,
Whisenhunt said he would think about it over the weekend.
Im sure Ill get asked that question again, he said. The
next time I think maybe Ill have a little more information.
John Skelton and Kevin Kolb have been competing for the
job, and neither has been outstanding. Skelton started
Thursday nights 32-27 loss at Tennessee and completed 4 of
10 passes for 41 yards and was intercepted once. Kolb saw
more extensive action and was 17 of 22 for 156 yards, includ-
ing his rst TD pass of the preseason.

Refurbished Memorial
Stadium is Cals new jewel
By Antonio Gonzalez
BERKELEY Jeff Tedfords emo-
tions overwhelmed him when he walked
into Memorial Stadium for the rst time
since Californias long-time home
underwent a $321 million seismic retro-
t and renovation.
The coach remembered all those splin-
ters fans mailed him they pulled
them out of their rear, he joked from
the old wooden benches. He thought
back to the times his ofce rumbled
you never knew if it was the people
down the hall or the ground more
than it should during an earthquake.
And, of course, the 21-month occupation
of redwood trees by protesters my
neighbors and the long legal and
nancial frustrations that followed.
The one thing I am a little disap-
pointed about is we had to change the
visitors locker room, Tedford said.
That absolutely was the worst facility
in the country.
Now those memories have all but
faded.
With the season opener against
Nevada on Sept. 1, California ofcially
opened the doors for a behind-the-scenes
look at Memorial Stadium on Friday.
Highlights of the facility include a new
outdoor plaza, luxury suites and press
box and a refurbished Romanesque
facade from the original 1923 structure.
Ten years ago I sat at my desk and
they had all these renderings. I said, Are
you sure this is going to get done?
Tedford recalled. They said, Oh, no
problem. We got it. Its been a long
time.
The stadium underwent a complete
overhaul after the 2010 season, forcing
the Golden Bears to play across San
Francisco Bay at the GiantsAT&T Park.
Everything but the outer facade and the
seating bowl on the east side of the sta-
dium was rebuilt from the ground up to
make the stadium, which rests on an
earthquake fault running almost directly
between the goal posts, safer and more
modern.
There are more video screens and tel-
evisions. The concourse level is almost
twice as wide. More wheelchair ramps
and entrances have been installed, and so
have womens bathrooms. Tall poles
with circular speakers are part of the new
sound system hanging around the top of
the bowl.
Theres a grand lobby and a hall of
fame room that will be open beyond
game days. The eighth oor club level
has buffed hardwood oors and a terrace
with a stunning panoramic view of the
Berkeley campus, Oakland, San
Francisco Bay and San Francisco
when the marine-layer fog is not blan-
keting the skyscrapers, that is.
The stadium also is attached to a new
$150 million High Performance Center
that has given Cal state-of-the-art facili-
ties long overdue for a makeover.
Weve gone from having arguably
and no one here would argue it the
worst facilities in Division I to certainly
among the best, Cal athletic director
Sandy Barbour said. However, it has
not been overnight. Nothing about this
has been overnight.
While cash concerns long prevented
the privately funded project, protesters
almost derailed construction.
Demonstrations begin in late 2006 in
an effort to prevent the school from
clearing a grove to make room for the
new sports center. Other opponents,
including the city of Berkeley, led suit,
saying the project violated environmen-
tal and earthquake safety regulations.
Protesters cycled in and out of the
trees during the early months, but later
were forced into a single redwood as
campus ofcials stepped up their evic-
tion efforts. After many legal battles, the
school got court clearance in the fall of
2008 to begin building.
If theres one personality trait you
learn as chancellor of Berkeley, its
patience, university Chancellor Robert
J. Birgeneau said. I couldnt imagine
the people living in the trees for more
than a week. At the same time, I felt we
would eventually get there.
They did.
In the 21 months since the project
began, work has only stopped for ve
days, project manager Brian Main said.
Night-time restrictions because of near-
by residents also posed problems.
The biggest challenge was the ele-
ment of time, Main said. He said about
99 percent of construction is done and
there will be a punch list of items to
polish up over the next few months
between games, which was evident by
the dozens of workers scurrying around
the stadium Friday.
The Strawberry Canyon site remains a
serene setting.
The 63,000-seat capacity is about
9,000 fewer. The eld is four feet lower
to accommodate fans seated in the lower
rows. The entire stadium is actually four
different structures, each designed to
shift as much as six feet horizontally and
one to two feet vertically to absorb ener-
gy in the event of a major rupture on the
Hayward Fault. The press box and luxu-
ry suites also will move about a foot dur-
ing an earthquake.
Its perfectly safe, said David
Friedman, principal of Forell/Elsesser
Engineers Inc., one of the projects con-
tractors. Previously it was an unsafe
building.
Molding all the quadrants into one
structure also proved problematic. One
of the biggest challenges for architects
with the nearly 90-year-old building,
listed on the National Register of
Historic Places, was preserving past
decor with modern amenities and trying
to t unique shapes around a circular
bowl first modeled after the Roman
Coliseum.
The geometry problem here is phe-
nomenal, said Joe Diesko, vice presi-
dent and director of sports architecture
for HTNB architects. Difcult is fun for
architects.
The Bears already have had a couple
of practices at the new stadium and the
new synthetic turf and will be in there all
next week to get ready for the season
opener.
There is no place like Memorial
Stadium to play a football game. The
beauty and the environment here, theres
nothing like it, Tedford said. When
people walk in for the rst time, theyre
going to be amazed.

Blue Jays trade RHP Chavez to Oakland for cash
TORONTO The Toronto Blue Jays sold right-hander
Jesse Chavez to the Oakland Athletics on Friday.
The 29-year-old Chavez split this season between Toronto
and Triple-A Las Vegas. He was 1-1 with an 8.44 ERA in two
starts and seven relief appearances for the Blue Jays.
Chavez is 7-11 with a 5.74 ERA in 152 games for
Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Kansas City and Toronto.
The deal was announced before the Athletics played at
Tampa Bay.
Also, Oakland recalled right-hander Jim Miller from Triple-
A Sacramento and optioned pitcher Tyson Ross to the Pacic
Coast League club.
Ross was recalled Thursday to start against Tampa Bay after
Bartolo Colon was suspended 50 games on Wednesday for
testing positive for testosterone. Ross will work out of the
bullpen at Sacramento.
Miller went 2-1 with a 2.16 ERA over 24 games in two ear-
lier stints with the Athletics this season.
Marcus Mariota wins QB job for No. 5 Oregon
EUGENE, Ore. Redshirt freshman Marcus Mariota has
won the job as starting quarterback for No. 5 Oregon.
Oregon coach Chip Kelly announced Friday that Mariota
earned the position over sophomore Bryan Bennett, who was
Darron Thomas backup last season. Thomas left school early
to declare his eligibility for the NFL draft.
Oregon went 12-2 last season and defeated Wisconsin in the
Rose Bowl. The Ducks open this season at home against
Arkansas State on Sept. 1.
Mariota is the rst freshman to start in an opener for Oregon
since Danny ONeil in 1991.
Kelly, Mariota and Bennett were not available for comment
until workouts on Saturday, the school said.
Bennett was the more experienced of the two, having com-
pleted 25 of 46 passes for 369 yards and six touchdowns last
season as Thomas backup. Bennett started in a victory over
Colorado when Thomas was out with a sprained knee.
Mariota, a 6-foot-4 native of Hawaii, emerged as competi-
tion for Bennett during the annual spring game, when he com-
pleted 18 of 26 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. Jonny
Gomes changed the game in a hurry for
the Oakland Athletics.
Thats how close games are won,
with a bloop and a blast, Gomes said
Friday night after his two-run home run
off Joel Peralta in the eighth inning lift-
ed the As to a 5-4 victory over the
Tampa Bay Rays.
I dont get that at-bat without (Chris)
Carters bloop (single).
Chris Carters two-out hit off Peralta
(1-6) set up Gomes game-winning blast
that broke a 3-3 tie and sent the Rays to
their second loss in eight games, drop-
ping them 3 1/2 games behind the rst-
place New York Yankees in the American
League East.
The As remained tied for the second
wild-card spot after winning for the sev-
enth time in nine games.
I think were pretty hot, too, said
Oakland starter Jarrod Parker, who went
six innings for the As, giving up seven
hits and three runs while striking out
seven.
When were able to come into this
game and battle and just face people
blow-for-blow, its fun. Jonny came up
with a huge hit. We battled all game and
just kept at it.
Ryan Cook (6-2) earned the win in
relief.
Luke Scotts pinch-hit double got a
run back for the Rays in the ninth before
Grant Balfour nished for his 13th save.
Gomes, who played for the Rays from
2003-2008, has hit safely in all eight of
his games against his former team with
three homers in 26 at-bats. It was his
15th home run of the season.
Ben Zobrists 15th home run opened
the scoring for Tampa Bay, but Yoenis
Cespedes triple keyed a two-run fourth
inning for Oakland. The inning ended
when Josh Donaldson was caught trying
to steal home with the bases loaded.
I dont know what to say about that
one, As manager Bob Melvin said. No
one has the green light at third, lets put
it that way.
Its a play where if you make it,
everybody loves you. If not ... there you
have it.
The Rays also failed to convert a
bases-loaded situation. Leading 3-2 in
the sixth, they had runners on rst and
second with two outs when Ryan
Roberts drove a single up the middle.
But Evan Longoria was held up at third
base, and Parker struck out Jose Molina
to end the threat.
Rays manager Joe Maddon said that
Longoria was stopped by third-base
coach Tom Foley because of new
Longo Rules that discourage base run-
ning chances that might cause Longoria
to reinjure his hamstring.
It really was frustrating. Thats a
game we normally win, Maddon said.
Ive got to give Oakland a lot of credit.
Oakland is really playing well. Its very
similar to our group of players. Theyre
no uke. Youve got to bring your A
game to beat them.
Rays starter Matt Moore struck out
seven in 6 1/3 innings. He gave up three
earned runs and seven hits.
NOTES: The three-game series will
conclude Saturday afternoon because
Tropicana Field will be used as a venue
for the Republican National Convention.
... The As purchased the contract of
right-hander Jesse Chavez from the
Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. The 29-
year-old Chavez split this season
between Toronto and Triple-A Las
Vegas, going 1-1 with an 8.44 ERA in
two starts and seven relief appearances
for the Blue Jays. ... Oakland recalled
right-hander Jim Miller from Triple-A
Sacramento and optioned pitcher Tyson
Ross to the Pacic Coast League club. ...

Athletics slip past Rays 5-4
Giants rally to beat the Braves
SAN FRANCISCO Angel Pagan
had a go-ahead triple among his four hits
to help back Ryan Vogelsongs rst vic-
tory in three starts, and the San
Francisco Giants
beat the Atlanta
Braves 5-3 on Friday
night for their fth
straight win.
Pablo Sandoval hit
an RBI double and
also scored the tying
run for the NL West-
leading Giants on a
wild pitch in the
third, and Buster
Posey doubled in a run after missing the
previous two games with tightness in his
right hamstring.
Freddie Freeman hit two solo home
runs for his third career multihomer
game and Jason Heyward also connected
for the Braves, who lost for the sixth
time in seven games. Freeman hit his
16th and 17th homers of the year. He
connected twice at Arizona on April 19.
Vogelsong (11-7) won despite allow-
ing just his 11th, 12th and 13th homers
of the year his most since surrender-
ing three homers to the Cubs on April
20, 2004, while with Pittsburgh.
The right-hander and surprise 2011
All-Star, who dropped out of the NL
ERA lead with his recent struggles,
ended two-start skid in which he didnt
make it past three innings either outing,
a 14-2 home loss to the Nationals on
Aug. 13 in which he went 2 2-3 innings
and then a 7-1 defeat last Sunday at San
Diego after being knocked out after
three innings.
San Francisco (71-55) moved a sea-
son-best 16 games over .500, one shy of
matching the clubs best mark of 17-over
last year.
The Giants began the night with a
three-game lead over the Los Angeles
Dodgers in the division their largest
since July 26 and they havent held a
four-game cushion since leading
Arizona on July 29, 2011.
Pagan nished 4 for 5 and is batting
.450 (18 for 40) over his last nine games
since the Giants lost All-Star game MVP
Melky Cabrera to a 50-game suspension
for testosterone Aug. 15.
After Freeman hit his 15th home run
leading off the second, Vogelsong retired
the next 10 Braves in order.
Marco Scutaro had an RBI single for
the Giants, who handed Braves starter
Ben Sheets (4-4) his third loss in as
many starts and fourth in ve since a
three-start winning streak. He was
knocked out after a season-low 4 1-3
innings, tagged for four runs and nine
hits with three walks and two strikeouts.

weapon. Two new running backs will split carries this season,
with senior Heru Peacock being the returning veteran. He will
split time with junior Travis Chambers. Both were sprinters for
the Knights track team in the spring.
[Peacock is] really quick and shifty and also very tough.
Hes gotten faster and hes also worked real hard on catching
the ball, Newton said. [Chambers is a] really slashing, down-
hill runner. He gets through small holes quickly and gets posi-
tive yards. He nds holes where other guys think they might
not exist.
Paving the way for Peacock and Chambers, and providing
protection for the quarterback, is an experienced offensive line
anchored by Wyatt Rouser and Zach Smith.
As good as Rouser is on the offensive line, hes even better
on the defensive side of the ball. Joining him are Monty
Newman, Chris Atkeson and Sean Laehy.
Rouser on the defensive line is key for us, Newton said.
What weve done this year we put an emphasis on really
coaching up the defensive line and we hope that will improve
things overall.
Newton is also happy with his linebacking corps with Zach
Smith, Jack Ferguson, Christian Pluscher and Nick Shultz.
Many of the defensive back spots will be manned by the
Knights receiving corps.
While Newton wont come out and say the Knights will win
the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Ocean Division crown, he likes
his teams chances. Considering the success the Knights have
had over the last several years, theres no reason to think they
wont be in the mix.
The Ocean is always tough. We feel like we can compete at
the top of the league, Newton said. We have a much deeper
team (this year) than we did last year. We have a good junior
class and we have a really strong senior class. When you
have that, you have a chance at doing special things.
all kinds of athletes to Kings, Gittens said. I wanted to get
out of the double-wing. When you have a small school and
dont know what were going to get every year, I think its good
to spread it out. Usually with the spread offense, it makes the
defense work harder than the offense. They have to play side-
line to sideline.
Gittens said the Knights wont be abandoning the running
game altogether. In fact, Gittens believes he has the backs who
could carry the load in a power running game. Both Booker
Robinson, a transfer from Bellarmine last year, and Caleb
Gomez have the ability to be front-line runners.
I have some initial guys who can play (in the backeld),
Gittens said.
In the spread offense, however, a bulk of the responsibility
falls on the shoulders of the quarterback. The Knights will be
putting a sophomore under center this season in Dominic Sabel.
Hes young but hes smart and hes eager, Gittens said.
Hell get good.
Gittens is excited to see how good sophomore receiver/safe-
ty Derek Friske can be. Gittens said he rst saw Friske during
the track season, and he boasted he had never lost a race in the
400. He went on to win the 400 in his rst high school track
meet and, since then, Gittens has been impressed with Friske on
the football eld especially at safety.
This kid can play, Gittens said. Hes an all-sport guy. As a
sophomore, hes going to play a lot of safety for us. He can
cover a lot of ground. Hes going to be a guy for us in the future
to do a lot.
While the Knights may be inexperienced at the skill posi-
tions, the offensive line should take some of pressure off the
quarterback as Gittens anticipates starting an all-senior offen-
sive line, led by San Jose State-bound Nate Velichko, who is a
beast at 6-6, 285 pounds. Joining him will be Daniel Peoples (6-
2, 235) and Jason Moran, who is probably the best technical
lineman we have.
My o-line is going to be good, Gittens said.
Those three will also anchor the defensive line, with the rest
of Gittens main players on offense manning defensive posi-
tions as well. His challenge will be keeping everyone fresh and
healthy so they can contribute on both sides of the ball.
All in all, Gittens all but admits this year is a rebuilding sea-
son for the Knights, which is strange because before they came
to the Peninsula Athletic League, they were constantly battling
for the Bay League title in the North Coast Section. Kings
Academy was then thrust into the spotlight with the arrival of
Amir Carlisle, who is now at USC. Last season, the Knights fell
back to earth, the schools demographics shifted and kids
stopped coming out for football. Gittens is determined to raise
those numbers and once again raise the Knights football pro-
le.
So far, it seems to be working out.
We started out this year with probably 20 kids coming out.
After spring and summer, and with what weve been running,
kids have been slowly trickling in, Gittens said. [Wednesday],
I just had three new kids come in, guys who can help us.
With what were running (offensively), kids are coming
back to the program. Were having fun.

The champagne toasts on the Champs-
Elysees and the two-ngered V for
victory signs he ashed while pedaling
to the nish line.
The excruciating mountain climbs and
the explosions of power that pushed him
past other heaving cyclists on narrow
Alpine roads.
The legions of fans wearing yellow
Livestrong bracelets cheering on the
cancer survivor whose grit and determi-
nation gave them hope.
Faded images are all that remain of
the unprecedented cycling career of
Lance Armstrong.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency erased
the rest of it on Friday.
It wiped out 14 years of Armstrongs
career including his record seven
Tour de France titles and barred him
for life from the sport after concluding
he used banned substances.
USADA said it expected cyclings
governing body to take similar action,
but the International Cycling Union was
measured in its response, saying it rst
wanted a full explanation of why
Armstrong should relinquish Tour titles
he won from 1999 through 2005.
The Amaury Sport Organization,
which runs the worlds most prestigious
cycling race, said it would not comment
until hearing from the UCI and USADA.
The U.S. agency contends the cycling
body is bound by the World Anti-
Doping Code to strip Armstrong of one
of the most incredible achievements in
sports.
Armstrong, who retired a year ago and
turns 41 next month, said Thursday he
would no longer challenge USADA and
declined to exercise his last option by
entering arbitration. He denied again
that he ever took banned substances in
his career, calling USADAs investiga-
tion a witch hunt without any physical
evidence.
He is now ofcially a drug cheat in the
eyes of his nations doping agency.
USADA chief executive Travis Tygart
described the investigation as a battle
against a win-at-all-cost culture,
adding that the UCI was bound to rec-
ognize our decision and impose it.
They have no choice but to strip the
titles under the code, he said.
That would leave Greg LeMond as the
Armstrongs titles erased by USADA

NEW YORK Because hes a
player who has spent more time
watching Roger Federer on TV than
trying to beat him, its safe to say
Rhyne Williams will not win the
U.S. Open this year.
But to say the 21-year-olds trip to
Flushing Meadows has been less
than a rousing success well, that
wouldnt be quite right, either.
While Federer, Novak Djokovic,
Serena Williams and all those other
big names get their chance to make
history next week, its players such
as Rhyne Williams and 17-year-old
Samantha Crawford who truly put
the Open in the U.S. Open this
week.
They, along with 485th-ranked
former NCAA champion Bradley
Klahn, are among those who won
their third qualifying matches
Friday to make it into the main
draw. They grinded out the wins on
the same courts some of the greats
will play on starting Monday. They
did it not to the cheers of thousands
but in front of the hundreds who got
in for free this week to watch the
warm-up act for the last Grand Slam
tournament of the year.
Nothing small-time about it to
these players, though.
Im still shaking, said
Crawford, ranked 394th, about 15
minutes after her 6-3, 1-6, 6-4 win
over Eleni Daniilidou of Greece.
Williams, ranked 283rd coming
into the week, shared the exact same
sentiment after his 6-3, 6-2 victory
over Peter Gojowczyk of Germany.
Im still shaking, Williams said.
Its incredible. Ive dreamed my
whole life about playing here in the
main draw. Ive finally done it.
Hopefully, Ill have many more
years left here.
Williams was the NCAA runner-
up in 2011 while playing for
Tennessee and, after some success
over the following months, decided
to turn pro. His mother is Michelle
Williams, a former pro who, as a
tennis-loving little girl, inspired her
father, Mike DePalmer, to reach out
to a friend and start a tennis school.
The school is now known as the
Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy.
I knew I had a good shot at being
a pro, Williams said. Its in the
family. Its in my blood.
Even with great bloodlines, no
thriving tennis career is preor-
dained. In search of his rst big
breakthrough as a pro, Williams got
it on a steamy, 85-degree day on
Court 17 in front of about 200 fans.
His next match will be early next
week in his rst Grand Slam tourna-
ment. His opponent will be deter-
mined late Friday night.
Ive never played a best-of-5
match before, he said. Thats very
new for me. But Ive been around
the level. Ive hit balls with guys in
the top 10 and top 100 plenty of
times. Im used to the way they
play.
Williams is among the 32 players
16 men and 16 women who
will make it through qualifying and
nd themselves in the main draw
early next week.
Two years ago, Klahn got a wild
card into the main draw after win-
ning the NCAA title at Stanford. He
took Sam Querrey to four sets in the
opening round.
Qualifiers put the Open in U.S. Open

only American to win the Tour de France, having done so in
1986, 1989 and 1990.
Armstrong on Friday sent a tweet that hes still planning to
ride in a mountain bike race in Aspen, Colo., on Saturday and
follow it up with running a marathon on Sunday, but he did not
comment directly on the sanctions.
The UCI and USADA have engaged in a turf war over who
should prosecute allegations against Armstrong. The UCI
event backed Armstrongs failed legal challenge to USADAs
authority, and it cited the same World Anti-Doping Code in
saying that it wanted to hear more from the U.S. agency.
As USADA has claimed jurisdiction in the case, the UCI
expects that it will issue a reasoned decision explaining the
action taken, the Switzerland-based organization said in a
statement. It said legal procedures obliged USADA to fulll
this demand in cases where no hearing occurs.
If Tour de France ofcials follow USADAs lead and
announces that Armstrong has been stripped of his titles, Jan
Ullrich could be promoted to champion in three of those years.
Ullrich was stripped of his third-place nish in the 2005 Tour
and retired from racing two years later after being implicated
in another doping scandal.
The retired German racer expressed no desire to rewrite the
record book of cyclings greatest event, even though he would
be the biggest beneciary.
I know how the order was on the nishing line at the time,
Ullrich said. Ive nished with my professional career and
have always said that I was proud of my second-place nish-
es.
The International Olympic Committee said Friday it will
await decisions by USADA and UCI before taking any steps
against Armstrong, who won a bronze medal at the 2000
Sydney Games. Besides the disqualications, Armstrong will
forfeit any medals, winnings, points and prizes, USADA said,
but it is the lost titles that now dominate his legacy.
Every one of Armstrongs competitive races from Aug. 1,
1998, has been vacated by USADA, established in 2000 as the
ofcial anti-doping agency for Olympic sports in the United
States. Since Armstrong raced in UCI-sanctioned events, he
was subject to international drug rules enforced in the U.S. by
USADA. Its staff joined a federal criminal investigation of
Armstrong that ended earlier this year with no charges being
led.
USADA, which announced its investigation in June, said its
evidence came from more than a dozen witnesses who agreed
to testify and provide evidence about their rsthand experience
and/or knowledge of the doping activity of those involved in

SCRIMMAGE
SAN DIEGO Cyclist Floyd
Landis agreed Friday to repay donors
nearly a half-million dollars that he
raised to challenge doping allegations in
an agreement with
federal prosecutors
that may spare him
criminal charges of
lying to supporters
about his drug use.
If Landis fails to
repay them in three
years, federal prose-
cutors may pursue a
single count of wire
fraud, exposing him
to up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
Phillip Halpern, an assistant U.S.
attorney, persuaded a judge to release
Landis without bail following the feder-
al grand jury investigation.
I think its safe to say Mr. Landis has
known about these proceedings for
months, if not over a year. Mr. Landis
has always been extremely coopera-
tive, Halpern told U.S. Magistrate
Judge Jan Adler.
As part of his deferred prosecution
agreement, Landis admitted defrauding
1,765 donors out of $478,354 an
amount he will fully repay. His attorney,
Leo Cunningham, pleaded not guilty on
his clients behalf and prosecutors
immediately agreed not to pursue
charges while Landis reimburses sup-
porters.
Landis, 36, apologized to his donors
as he left the federal building.
I can never undo what happened, he
told reporters. I can never undo having
lied to people but if, in some small way,
making restitution helps them to forgive
me, then thats a small step in the right
direction.
Landis won the Tour de France in
2006 but was stripped of the title after
an arbitration panel upheld the results of
a positive test for synthetic testosterone.
After strenuous denials and a protracted
ght in courts around the world, Landis
acknowledged using performance-
enhancing substances and has alleged
widespread doping on his U.S. Postal
Service team, which included seven-
time Tour winner Lance Armstrong.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency on
Friday stripped Armstrong of his record
seven Tour de France titles and banned
him for life from the sport after con-
cluding he used banned substances.
Armstrong, whose victories after his
comeback from cancer helped him tran-
scend sports, said Thursday that he
chose to not pursue arbitration with the
agency. It was Armstrongs last option
in his bitter ght with USADA.
The action leaves Greg LeMond as
the only American to win the race.
Landis avoided reporters questions
about Armstrong Friday, saying only, I
really dont know what the solution is
for the sport of cycling. Thats not my
issue anymore.
Halpern, a weekend warrior cyclist
himself, told reporters the restitution
represents every penny Landis raised
on the false pretense that he didnt take
performance-enhancing drugs. Donors
contributed as much as $50,000 each.
He credited Landis for coming clean in
2010 and helping expose doping in
cycling.

the Cherokees of Sequoia).
Menlo-Atherton (read their 2-A-Days preview in Mondays
Daily Journal) is well into their search for a new quarterback
following the departure of Willy Fanua. Royce Branning and
Zack Moore shared snaps on Friday.
Moores ability to get outside the pocket was evident while
Branning completed a couple of nice balls downeld against
the Serra defense. That competition should be fun to watch in
the next couple of weeks.
There were a lot of new faces on the Bears sideline. Theyll
be responsible to lling in for seven all-league M-A players
who graduated last season.
For Sequoia, Friday served as an early look at quarterback
Mike Taylor, who took over the eld general duties early last
season when James Beekley went down with a knee injury that
ended his promising season campaign. Obviously, the barom-
eter was set very high on Friday with the likes of M-A and
Serra on the eld against Sequoia, who resides in the PALs
Ocean Division but Taylor appeared more condent in leading
the Ravens.
Serra was just plain impressive. It took them three plays into
their rst offensive sequence to cross the goal line against M-
A with Kevin McGee doing the honors.
From there, by the time the running clock hit triple-zero,
Serra found the end zone three more times behind the running
of Eric Redwood and Hamilton Anoai.

Dating back to January 2011, the approxi-

Nagaya allegedly threw her from their car in

Nagaya has pleaded not guilty and faces

TRIAL
MEXICO CITY Mexican federal police
red on a U.S. Embassy vehicle and wounded
two U.S. government employees Friday after
their vehicle drove into a rural, mountainous
area outside the capital where the ofcers were
looking for criminals, Mexican and U.S. of-
cials said.
The two embassy employees were hospital-
ized, one with a leg wound and the other hit in
the stomach and hand, according to a govern-
ment official who spoke on condition of
anonymity. Hospital ofcials in Cuernavaca,
the nearest city, said they were taken in the
afternoon to Mexico City for treatment. The
U.S. Embassy said in a statement they were in
stable condition.
The embassy did not release the names of
the victims, and only said its vehicle, also car-
rying a Mexican Navy captain, was ambushed
by a group of armed men.
The Navy said in a written statement that
federal police shot the U.S. vehicle, but its
description of the incident left out key details
of how the shooting occurred. It said at least
four vehicles opened re on the Americans
sport utility vehicle on a road south of Mexico
City, but did not make clear if any of the four
carried federal police ofcers.
A U.S. ofcial who was briefed on the
shooting said, however, that all the shots were
red by federal police, of which at least 12
ofcers were being held for questioning by
Mexican authorities. The U.S. Embassy
employees were on their way to do training or
related work at a nearby military base, the of-
cial said.
Apparently the police were looking for
some bad guys and they ran into each other,
said the ofcial, who agreed to discuss the inci-
dent only if not quoted by name. It looks like
it was just a bad mistake ... they just shot and
kept shooting.
The Navy said the embassy personnel were
heading down a dirt road to the military instal-
lation when a carload of gunmen opened re
on them and chased them and a Navy captain
accompanying them. The shooting broke out in
an area that has been used by common crimi-
nals, drug gangs and leftist rebels in the past.
The Americans vehicle tried to escape, but
three other cars joined the original vehicle in
pursuing them down the road, the statement
said. Occupants of all four vehicles red, and
the Navy captain called more help, it said.
Federal police ofcers and Mexican soldiers
then showed up on the road, the statement said.
The U.S. vehicle appeared to be armored and
it had diplomatic plates.

BEIRUT A government warplane bombed
an apartment building in eastern Syria on Friday,
killing at least 21 people as the regime fought to
claw back ground lost to rebel ghters in the area
who have made signicant advances in the city,
activists said.
In Damascus, shells from mountains overlook-
ing the Syrian capital crashed into the rebellious
suburb of Daraya as part of a days-long regime
offensive to regain control of the area. Activists
said at least 15 people were killed in the shelling
and clashes.
The air raid on Mayadin, a city in Deir el-Zour
province near the Iraqi border, occurred after
rebels gained control of a key checkpoint on a
bridge over the Euphrates River there, local
activist Abu Omar al-Deery said.
He claimed that rebels have largely gained con-
trol of Mayadin for the rst time in the 17-month-
old uprising in Syria, adding that the only part still
in regime hands is an artillery position on a hill
overlooking the city.
Rebels seeking to oust President Bashar Assad
have been ghting to expand their foothold along
the eastern frontier. The opposition already con-
trols a wide swath of territory along the border
with Turkey in the north, as well as pockets along
the frontier with Jordan to the south and Lebanon
to the west.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights said 21 people, including 12
women and a child, were killed in the airstrike. Al-
Deery put the death toll at 23. The gures and
details could not be independently conrmed.

MODIMOLLE, South Africa What started
out as a day of hope for Solly the hippo turned to
tragedy when rescuers were unable to save the 3-
ton beast from the swimming pool he plunged
into after being chased from his herd.
Sollys plight captivated animal lovers and his
death Friday left many in tears, with some blam-
ing a vet who arrived too late.
The 4-year-old hippo had been chased from
his herd by dominant males when he wandered
into the Monate Conservation Lodge and
plopped into its 8-foot-deep pool. Although he
was able to swim freely, he couldnt get out
because the pool has no steps.
Diplomats: Iran shrouds
suspected nuclear site
VIENNA Iran has shrouded a building that
the U.N. nuclear agency suspects was used for
secret work on atomic weapons, meaning spy
satellites can no longer monitor Tehrans alleged
efforts to clean up the site, diplomats told The
Associated Press on Friday.
For months, satellite images have recorded
what the International Atomic Energy Agency
suspects is an attempt to sanitize the site. At the
same time, Iran has repeatedly rebuffed agency
efforts for access and did so again Friday.
The diplomats said the main building is now
covered with what appears to be plastic sheeting,
shielding any activity there from the outside world
and effectively shutting down the IAEAs only
way of monitoring the site with its eyes in the sky
through spy and commercial satellite imagery.

SEE PAGE 21
By Sangwon Yun
For a U.S. history term paper, I wrote about
the 2008 mortgage crisis and the subsequent
bailout of too big to fail banks. Imagine my
surprise, then, when I stumbled across an arti-
cle published by the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau proclaiming, Too Big to
Fail: Student debt hits a trillion.
The housing market bubble, OK ne. But a
student loan bubble? Reading on, the article
pointed to the worm in the apple that is higher
education, noting that [t]he lines of job-seek-
ers are long, states are reducing their higher
education budgets and household budgets are
straining. Indeed, it seems safe to presume
that most Californians can identify with all
three observations, especially the second, as
the November ballot rolls around. After all,
whether UC tuition rises
by 20 percent or not
hinges on Proposition 30.
Seeking to address the
rising cost of tuition and
accompanying budget
cuts, UC Riverside stu-
dents behind the Fix UC
initiative brought forth the
UC Student Investment
Proposal, a plan in which graduates of the UC
system would contribute approximately 5 per-
cent of their salary for 20 years of employ-
ment after graduation. In addition to promot-
ing scal independence from the state of
California and allowing students to graduate
debt-free, the proposal hoped to establish a
lasting relationship between students and the
university while developing a revenue stream
which would ultimately exceed that of student
tuition.
Initially, I stopped short at the mention of 20
years. Ive not turned 18 and paying back to
the UC system for longer than Ive been alive
was a mildly disconcerting thought.
Furthermore, I wondered how universities
would react to the obvious incentive of pro-
moting disciplines predisposed to higher
incomes. Additionally, the proposal deliber-
ately left students without an alternative
option of contributing their dues to the UC
system.
All in all, while I recognized the pragma-
tism rationalizing the proposal, I found myself
doubting it could be successfully implement-
ed. At any rate, facing the fact that student
loan debt exceeds U.S. credit card debt that
it has become too big to fail as well as
the established trend of unreliable state fund-
ing, it is clear Californian students of today
are met with a harsh reality requiring compa-
rably radical solutions.
At the same time, I believe the call for
access to affordable, quality education behind
Fix UC and echoed in the various Occupy
movements rhetoric is one reected by the
continued democratization of education,
namely the expansion of interactive online
courses. As is apparent in MITs recently-
launched MITx, the collaborative project
EdX, Stanford Universitys successful pilot
articial intelligence course and various other
institutions efforts to expand their library of
publicly-available resources, the future is now
and the next online tsunami is here.

Lets just be glad Smell-O-Vision never
caught on.
Thankfully, the musky odor of sweaty bike
messengers doesnt emanate from Premium
Rush, an enjoyable, two-wheeled action lm
and ashy ode to the sub-
culture of urban couriers.
Its a silly movie predi-
cated on a simple premise,
but Premium Rush is
satisfying B-movie enter-
tainment that moves with
the swiftness of a Schwinn
a ride made fun partic-
ularly by Michael
Shannons enthrallingly
comic performance as a
dirty cop in mad pursuit of
a bike messengers cargo.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Wilee, a hard-
ened New York City messenger whos forsak-
en a promising career in law for the freedom
of riding the citys congested streets. His dis-
patch (Aasif Mandvi) sends him on a seem-
ingly innocuous delivery, picking up an enve-
lope at Columbia University to be dropped off
in Chinatown before 7 p.m.
Like any self-respecting NYC bike messen-
ger, Wilee rides a xed-gear bike, meaning
theres one speed and no brakes the more
hardcore and aesthetically appealing way to
ride. Brakes are death is his mantra. He rev-
els in the art of trafc navigation, pinpointing
routes through red lights, sidewalks and
crosstown lanes.
Director and co-writer David Koepp is best
known as a screenwriter of blockbusters like
Spider-Man and Jurassic Park, but who
has sometimes directed like the underrated
Ricky Gervais comedy Ghost Town. In
Rush, he charts Wilees paths with a Cash
Cab-like map and represents his split-second
decision-making with visualizations of disas-
trous alternatives (like veering left and side-
swiping a stroller).
But Wilees pedal artistry is severely tested
when a man (Michael Shannon) attempts to
intercept his delivery and aggressively pur-
sues him down the West Side. His motivation
is initially unclear, but Koepp lls the lm
with ashbacks to earlier in the day for expo-
sition.
Such time-shifting is often a clunky tech-
nique, but Koepp assembles the backstories
without hitting too many potholes. The man,
Wilee soon learns, is a police ofcer named
Bobby Monday. In ashbacks, we learn that
his Pai Gow habit and his temper have gotten
him in deep with Chinatown gamblers. Hes
caught wind of Wilees shipment an enve-
lope with a ticket good for $50,000 and
hunts it recklessly.
There are other backstories, too: Wilee is
feuding with his girlfriend, Vanessa (Dania
Ramirez), a fellow messenger, whom he fears
could be lured by his courier rival, the beefy
Manny (Wole Parks).
As Wilee whose name is meant to evoke
the coyote, albeit with the Road Runners
knack for escape careens through the city,
hes also pursued by a bike cop (stuntman
Christopher Place) in a variety of chase
scenes. One takes place below an elevated
subway, evoking a smidge of The French
Connection.
But is cycling ready for its close-up?
Premium Rush arrives with some timeli-
ness, a kind of victory lap for the countrys
growing cycling culture and New Yorks
increasingly bike-friendly streets. Wilees
Wild West and his trusty steed are in some
ways behind the curve, as Mayor Bloomberg
has largely tamed the Manhattan grid with
color-coded bike paths.
Classic movie chase scenes are nearly all of
the automotive variety. In one of Shannons
many ne moments, he curses disgustedly at
such imsy prey: a mere bicycle. But the
numerous pursuit sequences which are a
long way from Paul Newman riding to Rain
Drops Keep Fallin on My Head in Butch
Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are largely
riveting. Koepp lmed them without the aid of
visual effects and the precarious, unarmored
position of a cyclist adds to the thrill: There is
skin in the game.
Gordon-Levitt, a wonderful young actor,
carries the lm easily and does well to capture
the gritty underdog mentality of the bike mes-
senger. (For more on New Yorks couriers, see
the 2001 documentary Pedal.)
But its Shannon who doesnt just steal the
lm, he towers over it. One of the nest actors
around, Shannons gifts are best witnessed on
the stage or in last years excellent Take
Shelter. He is far more than a great heavy, but
he is, nevertheless, a great heavy.
His Detective Monday is a combination of
desperation and exasperation, a wide-eyed
Shannon carries Premium Rush
Joseph Gordon-Levitt may be the star of Premium Rush, but co-star Michael Shannon steals the show as a crooked cop chasing Levitt.

CULPEPER, Va. In the crisp 39-
degree air of a converted bunker in
rural Virginia lies the nations greatest
collection of early lm.
Stacked in metal tins on shelves in
124 concrete vaults that stretch almost
eight-feet high, movies that wowed
audiences decades ago are meticu-
lously stored so that one day, they
may play again.
The vaults at the Library of
Congress Packard Campus for
Audio-Visual Conservation in
Culpeper, Va., represent decades of
work by copyright ofcials to not only
protect the rights of lmmakers, but
also preserve their movies for future
generations.
The collection is in many ways the
culmination of work that began 100
years ago Friday, when U.S.-made
movies earned their own copyright
designation and transformed from a
edgling industry into a global eco-
nomic and cultural juggernaut.
Copyright was very essential from
the very beginning of the industry,
said Patrick Loughney, chief of the
Packard campus, a former Federal
Reserve bunker 90 minutes west of
Washington, D.C., that has been con-
verted into a state-of-the-art archive. It
is a dual safe-haven, intended to pro-
tect both the lms creators and, in the
process, establish a collection that
outlasts a lms box-ofce haul.
Its basically been a Noahs Ark
effort to save the creative history of
the United States, he said.
Congress carved out a lm copy-
right designation on Aug. 24, 1912,
and within weeks, lmmakers were
registering their dramas, documen-
taries and comedies. The rst was
Black Sheeps Wool, a melodrama
about the troubles of European nobil-
ity who came to North America.
It, like many lms of its age, is lost.
But the Packard Campus does have
the only known copy of the fourth
lm registered, a 1912 version of
The Charge of the Light Brigade
created by Thomas Edisons lm
company.
Fragments of another of the rst
ve lms registered remain in another
archive run by New Yorks Museum
of Modern Art, he said, but the rest are
currently considered lost.
Although more than 5,600 earlier
lms had received copyright protec-
tion, Loughney and others say creat-
ing a lm category reected its grow-
ing inuence and the desire to see it
protected.
It certainly adds legitimacy to a
medium if its recognized and has its
own category, said Michael OLeary,
a senior vice president of global
affairs for the Motion Picture
Association of America.
For early lmmakers, It gave them
a little bit of a protection, a little bit of
security. They were probably on a lit-
tle more tenuous ground than we are
today, he said.
Early lms faced a familiar concern
for modern studios piracy.
America was a hotbed for that
activity, certainly for lm, Loughney
said.
Early lmmakers often resorted to
putting their logos on the backdrops
of their sets to discourage piracy,
Loughney said. Hes seen prints
where an infringing movie house had
actually scratched out the logos from
each frame.
Today, movie pirates sell cheap
DVDs of lms that are still in theaters
and in some cases, hacking studio
servers to get access to new releases.
Federal authorities have prosecuted or
shut down websites suspected of
copyright infringement.
For Loughney, the priority is ensur-
ing that lms and other works housed
at the Packard Campus remain avail-
able for future generations to enjoy.
That is why the staff maintains copies
and the equipment to play them
of bygone lm technologies such as
tapes and reels.
Eventually many of the works may
be digitized, but the facility houses the
only known copies of many works.
Our mission is to keep it forever,
Loughney said. When we say forev-
er, we have to mean it.

STAGED READING OF 8 ON OCT. 7.
American Conservatory Theater, in associa-
tion with the American Foundation for Equal
Rights and Broadway Impact, presents a one-
night-only staged reading of 8, a play chron-
icling the trial in the case of Perry v.
Schwarzenegger (now Perry v. Brown), the
federal constitutional challenge to Californias
Proposition 8.
The American Foundation for Equal Rights,
the sole sponsor of the Perry case, is commit-
ted to achieving full federal marriage equality.
After bringing together attorneys Theodore B.
Olson and David Boies to lead its legal team,
AFER advanced the Perry case through the
Federal District Court, to the Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals, and toward a possible hear-
ing before the U.S. Supreme Court. Broadway
Impact is a grassroots organization of the the-
ater community and its fans mobilized in sup-
port of marriage equality.
8 is an account of the Federal District
Court trial. The story is framed by the trials
closing arguments in June 2010, and is based
on the actual words of the trial transcripts,
first-hand observations of the courtroom
drama, and interviews with the plaintiffs and
their families. The play was written by
Academy Awardwinning screenwriter and
AFER Founding Board Member Dustin Lance
Black.
Proceeds from the reading benet AFER
and LGBTQ youth participating in A.C.T.s
ArtReach program, which offers free student
matinee tickets and theater-based pre- and
post-show workshops at no cost to 23 public
high schools in the Bay Area with large popu-
lations of underserved, low-income students
who otherwise would have little exposure to
the arts.
The reading takes place 7 p.m. Sunday, Oct.
7 at the American Conservatory Theater, 415
Geary St., San Francisco. Tickets range in
price from $50 to $100. A limited number of
$250 seats are available and include premium
seating and access to a post-performance
reception with the cast. Tickets are now on
sale online at act-sf.org or by calling (415)
749-2228. Casting for the A.C.T. production
of 8 will be announced at a later date.

Jerry Nelson, Count
of Sesame Street, dies at 78
LOS ANGELES Jerry Nelson, the pup-
peteer behind Count von Count on PBS
Sesame Street, has died.
Sesame Workshop says Nelson, who suffered
from emphysema, died Thursday night in his
Massachusetts home on Cape Cod. He was 78.
A tribute to Nelson was posted on the educa-
tional workshops website. It lauds Nelson for
his artistry and the laughter he brought to chil-
dren worldwide with the count and other
Muppet characters, including Herry Monster
and the Amazing Mumford.
Nelson also performed characters on the
Fraggle Rock show, including Gobo Fraggle.
In recent years, Nelson stopped operating the
Count and other Sesame Street puppets but
still served as their voices.
The workshop says the new season of Sesame
Street launches next month and Jerry Nelsons
voice will be heard.
Coroner: Scotts notes
didnt say reason for death
LOS ANGELES Los Angeles County coro-
ners ofcials say notes left behind by Top Gun
director Tony Scott did not give a motive why he
would kill himself.
Coroners ofce spokesman Ed Winter also said
Friday the notes didnt mention any health issues.
The 68-year-old Scott died Sunday after leaping
from the Vincent Thomas Bridge into Los Angeles
Harbor. An autopsy was performed on the British-
born directors body Monday, but it will be a
month or more before an ofcial cause of death is
determined.
Coroners ofcials are treating Scotts death as a
probable suicide.

Even at Aragon High School, with the
installation of a new theater and career/techni-
cal education building, as well as rumors of
distributing computer tablets to future fresh-
man classes, greater access to technology is
undoubtedly transforming the classroom envi-
ronment. This is all the more evident in less
obvious changes, such as greater dependency
on Google Drive and assigning a student
Gmail account to all grade levels. Similarly,
the aforementioned online courses present yet
another opportunity for universal access and,
by extension, a more level playing eld.
Ultimately, we as students are left with a
growing range of options yet are concurrently
expected to acknowledge a culture of acade-
mia in which adaptive change is inevitable. As
to whether initiatives like Fix UC and interac-
tive online courseware will be successful or
not, I hope to see the impact they will have on
how the tradition of education lives on.

LONDON Brace yourself, Harry.
A prominent British public relations guru said
Friday hed been approached by two women who
claimed to have more material on Prince Harry,
raising the possibility that the world may soon be
seeing more compromising images of the British
royal.
Earlier this week, celebrity gossip website
TMZ published photos of Harry romping in the
nude during a party at his Las Vegas hotel suite.
Many Britons have laughed off the 27-year-old
princes hijinks, but questions have been raised
about his publicly-funded security detail.
In a telephone interview, publicist Max
Clifford said he had been called by two American
women who claim they were in the princes hotel
room in the U.S. last week. Clifford, a savvy
operator famous for negotiating kiss-and-tell

interesting things: pictures, video, that kind of

He said he turned them down.

Consultant: More Prince Harry

By Stacey Plaisance
NEW ORLEANS True Blood fans can
soon concoct their own blood-red beet bisque,
crimson sweet tea and other Cajun delicacies
inspired by the hit HBO vampire drama and
compiled in a new cookbook.
True Blood is lmed partly in Louisiana
and is set in the ctional Louisiana town of
Bon Temps. The states cuisine is often refer-
enced in the series, where vampires and mor-
tals mingle over bowls of okra gumbo, jamba-
laya, and red beans and rice.
The cookbook, True Blood: Eats, Drinks,
and Bites from Bon Temps, was compiled by
Cajun chef Marcelle Bienvenu and is being
released in bookstores on Wednesday, shortly
after Sundays broadcast of the shows fth-
season nale.
Im going to be honest with you, I had
never seen the show before they asked me to
do this cookbook, said Bienvenu, a chef from
the Cajun town of St. Martinville, La., who
lived in New Orleans for several years and
now teaches culinary arts at Nicholls State
University in Thibodaux, La.
I sat down and watched it with my note-
book, and I was amazed how much food was
mentioned in the series, she said. It was fun
making the recipes come to life. I think people
are still mystied by south Louisiana food.
Theres still such a mystique about the food
and culture here.
True Blood stars real-life husband and
wife actors Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer.
Paquin plays the shows beloved heroine
Sookie Stackhouse, a mostly human waitress
who falls for vampire Bill Compton, a
Confederate veteran turned into a bloodsucker
played by Moyer.
In the cookbook, recipes are accompanied
with pictures and excerpts from the series. For
instance, a recipe for creamy crawsh dip is
displayed among pictures from a scene in
which Stackhouse drives to Shreveport, La., to
see a werewolf but is instead greeted at the
door by Debbie Pelt, a character who has
twice tried to kill her.
In the scene, Debbie offers Sookie a helping
of crawsh dip.
Besides food, the cookbook includes nearly
two-dozen drink recipes with names like
Tequila Moonrise, Lovin in the Coven and
Moonshine Rising.
The drinks were a lot of fun to make, said
Bienvenu, who consulted a bartender friend
from Thibodaux, La., to create the mixtures.
She also used her students at Nicholls State
University to test her food recipes, she said.
Bienvenu said that while the recipes have
been given names inspired by the series,
these are real recipes for food we here in
Louisiana eat all the time. I think people are
really going to enjoy them.
Bienvenu said True Blood, which is
shown in some 50 countries worldwide, has
been a great way to showcase Louisianas
unique cuisine eats like gumbo, jambalaya
and etouffee and ingredients like tasso,
Andouille sausage, okra, cayenne pepper,
yams and mirlitons.
The shows season ve nale is Sunday, and
the network announced earlier this year that
True Blood will be returning for a sixth sea-
son next year.
James Costos, vice president of licensing
and retail for HBO, said the cookbook was a
natural extension for the show, which already
has a fragrance and beauty product line.
The senses play a huge part in True
Blood, Costos said. The cookbook is anoth-
er way to tap into the carnal desires that are
played out on screen.
This isnt the rst time HBO has merged a
show with a cookbook. The network released
a collection of recipes from the tables of
Italian mob families in the long-running hit
drama The Sopranos, and theres a cook-
book due out next year based on the New
Orleans-shot HBO series Treme.
We work with so many amazing chefs on
Treme, and the concept of combining their
experiences with those of our characters as
they navigate the culinary landscape of New
Orleans was very intriguing, said Nina
Noble, one of the shows producers.
Treme: Stories and Recipes from the Heart
of New Orleans is due out next spring.

Southwest Indiana farm source
of some contaminated melons
OWENSVILLE, Ind. Health ofcials say a
farm in southwestern Indiana was the source of at
least some of the salmonella-contaminated can-
taloupe that has made at least 178 people in 21
states ill, but they are still trying to determine
whether there are other sources.
Federal and state ofcials disagree whether it is
safe to eat melons from the region. The Food and
Drug Administration says consumers should dis-
card any cantaloupes grown there bought on or
after July 7 because they are still investigating
other possible sources of the outbreak.
Amy Reel, Indiana Department of Health
spokeswoman, says the state is recommending
cantaloupes from Chamberlain Farms in
Owensville be discarded, but melons from other
farms are safe to eat as long as they are washed
well and people use clean knives and cutting
boards.

BLOWING ROCK, N.C. On Travel +
Leisures most recent Worlds Best Awards
list for top destination spas, youd expect to
nd familiar brand names like Canyon Ranch.
But the No. 2 spot on this coveted lineup
might surprise you: Westglow Resort & Spa,
located in Blowing Rock, N.C., 100 miles
(161 kilometers) from Asheville and 200
miles (321 kilometers) from Raleigh.
Listed on the National Registry of Historic
Places, Westglow was built in 1916 by
American artist and writer Elliott
Daingereld. The Greek Revival home, ringed
on all sides by the Blue Ridge Mountains, is
named Westglow because of the incredible
views. Daingereld described them as never
glaring, always glowing throughout the shad-
ows, clouds or mist.
After a tricky drive careening around moun-
tain curves, a hairpin turn into a formal drive-
way opens up to a stately mansion and ridge-
upon-ridge views as Daingerelds descrip-
tion comes to brilliant life. Guests lounge on
the west portico sipping wine and watching
the sun set behind the grandeur of Grandfather
Mountain. You feel suddenly cocooned and
set apart from the rest of the world.
Westglow remained in the Daingerfield
family until 1978, when fitness devotee
Glynda Valentine bought the residence and
turned it into a spa. In 2005, Bonnie and Jamie
Schaefer purchased the 20-acre estate, and in
2006 it rst appeared on Travel + Leisures
destination spas list, coming in at No. 15. In
2009, Westglow joined Relais & Chateaux, an
elite association of luxury hotels and restau-
rants.
The Schaefers expanded the resort beyond
the manor house, adding more lodging at
Cedar Lodge, a rustic triplex across the road,
as well as a Life Enrichment Center with spa
facilities and exercise rooms.
Westglow offers plenty of opportunities for
both relaxation and tness and outdoor activi-
ties.
There are guided hikes on nearby mountain
trails (led in the morning by Valentine), a lap
pool, tennis court, exercise classes and gym
with weight-training and cardio equipment.
Spa tness packages include weight-loss pro-
grams and wellness services like stress coun-
seling. Hiking, biking and luxury camping are
available, too, along with activities arranged
through local outtters such as canoeing,
kayaking, y shing, golng, horseback rid-
ing, rock climbing and whitewater rafting.
Private personal trainers as well as Pilates and
tennis instructors are also at hand.
But if your idea of a spa vacation involves
more lounging than lunging, oor-to-ceiling
windows in the Life Enrichment Center invite
contemplation of Blue Ridge Mountain vistas
from a padded chaise longue, swaddled in a
soft white robe, hibiscus iced tea on one side
and a bevy of magazines on the other. The 3-
to-1 staff- to-guest ratio means that glass of
tea is always full.
Spa treatments include seaweed and mud
wraps, facials, massages, hot stone therapy,
reexology and aromatherapy. The full-serv-
ice salon offers hair care, manicures, pedi-
cures and waxing. After a calming massage,
you can dip in one of two whirlpools and
enjoy a meal at the poolside cafe. For dinner,
Westglows restaurant, Rowlands (named for
Bonnies father) has two menus. One is called
the indulgent menu with locally sourced
vegetables, cheeses and meat entrees like beef
tenderloin, pork chop and lamb loin. The spe-
cialty is miso-marinated sea bass over rice.
Desserts range from homey and satisfying
strawberry-and-cream ice box pie and sumac
pound cake to the over-the-top Chocolate
Earth. The spa menu is a scaled-down ver-
sion of the indulgent menu, except the only
dessert is a berry crisp.
Accommodations are like the indulgent
dessert menu homey and satisfying, yet
rened. Each room comes with slippers, uffy
robes, chocolates on your pillow with turn-
down service, and luxury bath products. The
Cedar Lodge offers more privacy than the
manor house: Each of the three units has its
own Jacuzzi tub, replace and private deck.
Rooms at the main house are restored with
unique decor and period furnishings.
Daingerelds original oils, watercolors and
sketches appear throughout the manor, and his
art books and literature ll the library.
Still wondering why Westglow ranks so
highly as a destination spa? Service, of
course, and the facilities, from the historic
manor to the 21st century spa to the luxury
restaurant. But its also, of course, the setting,
with the mountain views and the glow that
gave the place its name nearly 100 years ago.

Pilots at American Airlines plan strike vote
DALLAS The pilots union says it will hold a strike vote
if American Airlines throws out its labor contract in bankrupt-
cy court.
The Allied Pilots Association said Wednesday that voting
could start as soon as American tries to impose its own terms
for pay and work rules.
A hearing on Americans request to cancel the pilots con-
tract is scheduled for Sept. 4.
Federal law makes it difcult for airline unions to legally
strike. In 2007, a federal appeals court blocked a planned
strike by ight attendants at Northwest Airlines after the air-
line threw out the unions contract as part of its bankruptcy
case.
Union spokesman Gregg Overman said pilots would strike
only if they had legal permission from the National Mediation
Board, but Wednesdays declaration showed labors resolve.
Our pilots are looking to us for leadership to resist any
move by management to reject our contract, Overman said.
He said the union still wants to negotiate with the company.
AMR Corp.s American did not immediately comment on
the union statement. However, the airline has given no indica-
tion that it will resume negotiations before next months hear-
ing in front of a federal bankruptcy judge in New York.

LOCAL
24
hour and only used on the day they are made.
The tea leaves from Taiwan are higher quality,
Su said, and it is important to him that cus-
tomers drink tea that is smooth and fullling.
The cost is higher, but I want to assure
good quality tea, Su said.
This effort resonates with many of the cus-
tomers who value the care and detail put into
making the tea. It is these touches that sepa-
rate Tpumps from other businesses and make
it unique, said Jonas Fernandez, from San
Francisco.
A lot of boba places use powder. It
[Tpumps] is a lot classier. They actually brew
their tea, said Fernandez. It tastes a lot bet-
ter.
Fernandez, 18, who works near the busi-
ness, said he usually comes twice a week and
appreciates not only the teas and avors, but
also the price. A regular 24 ounce drink is
$2.50 and their large 32 ounce size, the
pumbo, is $3.50.
You get a good portion for your money,
Fernandez said.
Another staple is the customization. One
can request a certain tea and mix it with any
number of avors and even adjust the sweet-
ness of the drink. This ordering method is
comparable to Starbucks, said Liu, with the
order written on the side of the drink.
I think this is the secret, said Castaneda-
Morgan. You can customize it so everyone
feels special.
Their popular drinks are regular milk tea
and peach milk tea, Su said, and passion green
tea and lychee green tea are big hits during the
summer, Liu said.
Milk tea drinks originated in Taiwan and
have become increasingly popular in the Bay
Area. A milk tea usually includes tea, creamer
and tapioca pearls. However, it wasnt Sus
initial plan to start Tpumps as a milk tea ven-
ture.
Before opening his rst business, Su, 39,
worked in the shipping business for 10 years
in Burlingame. He was at the time a heavy
coffee drinker, but realized that it was too
much, and so decided to switch over to tea. He
developed an interest in tea and originally had
the idea of selling loose tea leaves as his main
business. Yet, the hot tea drinks led to trying
milk tea drinks and those became popular as
well, so he decided to continue on with craft-
ing the many drinks for which Tpumps is
known.
Tea, though, is still the focus of all the
drinks, Su said. It has become his passion to
serve the best quality tea he can nd and to
brew it just right.
Tea is like wine. [It takes] the right brew-
ing and timing, Su said. Its something I
love to do.
Those who choose to follow the line into
Tpumps will nd themselves entering a nar-
row space with an ornately decorated ceiling
reminiscent of an upscale dining room. Fans
blow from each corner to cool down eager
customers who wait to receive their drink
from a busy eight-person staff that prepares
drinks a in a tight, 500-square-foot kitchen.
Refreshing samples are provided to those in
line, especially when it begins to trail out the
door. The whole drink-making process is visi-
ble for customers to see, a reassurance of the
quality that is key for the business.
The staff has grown since it started last year
in June when the entire staff consisted of Su
and a fellow coworker. Seven to eight employ-
ees can be found in the kitchen at one time,
including recent Aragon High School gradu-
ate Summer Kang. After frequenting Tpumps
during her last year of school, she took her
rst job there and has enjoyed it.
Its pretty cool because youre working
with people your age. Everyone is friendly,
Kang said.
Kang is part of the age group that Su said
are most of customers he receives, mainly
ranging from 15 to 35. To increase awareness,
Su has done sponsorships with Bay Area high
schools like San Mateo High, Aragon High,
Mills High and Crystal Springs Uplands
schools by getting students to come try his
drinks while giving back a percentage to
fundraising or charity.
It is all part of Sus motivation to not only
make tea drinks, but also provide enjoyment
for people.
If I wanted money, I would just do ship-
ping, Su said. When I see customers enjoy
tea, I feel much happier. I get a good feeling
from serving customers who are enjoying the
tea.
TPUMPS
separate, discrete entrance for those in transi-
tional housing.
The designs take into consideration the
needs of inmates with longer or extended stay
lengths in a local facility under state realign-
ment.
Another consideration in choosing between
the single and dual-building options is if the
state provides up to $100 million in construc-
tion funding. The state must own buildings to
use as collateral when issuing bonds so the
rst option would require it to completely
own the single structure. Likewise, the county
must own buildings to issue bonds so, unless
the state covers all costs, each entity will have
its own with a space maybe 15 feet in
between.
The jail itself is estimated to cost approxi-
mately $155 million with roughly $25 to $27
million a year in operating expenses. County
Manager John Maltbie will bring a nancing
plan back to the Board of Supervisors this fall.
The current county jail has been over
capacity for years, prompting officials to
begin plans for a new facility. State realign-
ment, in which some low-level state prisoners
are being sent to local facilities, is increasing
the need, county ofcials contend.
But while the jail planning team move for-
ward with making a new correctional facility
a reality, some groups continue opposing the
project such as those who organized a
Saturday town hall-style gathering of opposi-
tion in East Palo Alto.
Every penny we spend locking people up
is taking away from funding for programs that
build strong communities, keep people
healthy and keep families together. Were
hurting ourselves twice breaking up com-
munities with jails, and robbing resources
from the services that actually keep us safe,
Dorsey Nunn, executive director of Legal
Services for Prisoners with Children and resi-
dent of Menlo Park resident, said in a pre-
pared announcement of the gathering.
But Munks, like other advocates of a new
facility, point out that a bigger, more modern
jail will provide more opportunity for servic-
es and skills to successfully move back into
the community.
Its such a unique and exciting opportuni-
ty. Nobody is doing anything like this,
Munks said.
Opening is scheduled for 2015.

While a number of districts have access to a
variety of technologies, teachers may not have
training to truly take advantage of and utilize
those products in the classroom. Thats why Rod
Hsiao, county Board of Education trustee, said
the center is so important.
Located at the County Ofce of Education, 101
Twin Dolphin Drive in Redwood City, the STEM
Center will work as a branch of the curriculum
and instruction services department. It will be a
place to offer professional development in STEM
topics but also include training in blended and
online learning, the common core standards in
mathematics and the next generation science
standards. On Friday, an open house allowed
people to wander through the support offered in
the 2,900-square-foot facility that features a stu-
dio and conference room equipped to support
state-of-the-art professional development using
video conferencing, interactive white boards and
a variety of laptops, tablets and smart devices.
Campbell explained that not only will trainings
be offered on site, but those trainings will be doc-
umented online. That way those who were unable
to attend can learn from the training. Also, those
who took the training can refresh their memory
when putting the lessons learned to use, she said.
Much of whats being offered is through com-
munity partnerships.

Calendar
SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 2012
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A friend who believes
that you will keep in confdence what she or he tells
you is likely to entrust you with a secret. Its impera-
tive that you honor this trust.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- There is a chance you
can learn more from a friend than you can from
books. When speaking to a close pal whose ideas
you respect, do more listening than talking.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Youll frst have to
defne what you want if you hope to achieve your
aims. Dont be afraid to speak up, because once you
start talking, the right words will be there.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Friends are happy
to help you at this time, but they frst must under-
stand what you want from them. Promote your cause
the same way youd market a product.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your ability to
research and discover things is extremely effective.
Properly applied, you can get past the obvious and
fnd the facts that lie beneath the surface.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Discussion should
precede all action you take, especially anything that
would directly affect another. Once a mutual agree-
ment is achieved, make your move.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Your chances for fulfll-
ing an ambitious objective are excellent at this time.
This is because youll know how to logically and
effectively utilize any development.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A sincere interest in
learning more about someone you recently met will
do a lot to further the relationship. It could awaken in
the other party an equally strong interest in you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If a family problem is
discussed with all parties, it can be worked out to
everybodys satisfaction. Be the one who puts the
meeting together, and dont leave anybody out.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Tell it like it is if an
old pal comes to you for advice today. Chances are
youll have a lot to say that could be constructive and
would be extremely helpful to your friend.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your fnancial
prospects look extremely encouraging, provided
your aspirations dont exceed your grasp. If you are
content with small gains, there could be quite a few
in the making.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If your ears are ringing,
chances are you are the topic of conversation among
your friends. Not to worry, however -- if you could
hear what theyre saying, youd be pleased.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Eli Nicholas Custino
Case Number 122560
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Eli Nicholas Custino. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Charlotte Custino in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Char-
lotte Custino 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: August 28, 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 appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. 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 provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
