The U.S. Coast Guard apprehended a man

Friday night who allegedly took his two kid-
napped children from South San Francisco
aboard a stolen yacht earlier this week, a
Coast Guard spokesman said.
The father, identied as Christopher Maffei,
43, surrendered without incident in sailing
waters off the Monterey Peninsula shortly
before 8 p.m. Friday night and the children
were found safe on board the boat, Coast
Guard spokesman Thomas McKenzie said.
He said the children would be checked out
by medical personnel, but anticipated they
would return home shortly.
South San Francisco police said the yacht
was spotted Friday morning in the waters off
of Pillar Point Harbor after local, state and
national law enforcement was alerted to the
kidnapping.
Maffei allegedly abducted his two children,
Brooklynn, 3, and Devin, 2, at about 3 p.m.
Tuesday in the 100 block of James Court in
South San Francisco.
Police said Maffei then drove in a rental car
to Ballena Isle Marina in Alameda, where he
stole a yacht named Unleashed and sailed
away with the children.
Maffei had been to the harbor two weeks
earlier to inquire about purchasing the boat,
authorities said.
Maffei is the former boyfriend of the chil-
drens mother Jennifer Nipon. She said that
the couple has shared custody of the children,
which is why an amber alert was not initially
issued.

WASHINGTON American
employers cut back sharply on hir-
ing last month, crushing hopes that
the job market was improving and
putting more pressure on the
Federal Reserve to give the sluggish
economy another jolt.
The Labor Department said
Friday that employers added just
96,000 jobs in August, down from
141,000 in July and too few to keep
up with population growth. The
unemployment rate fell to 8.1 per-
cent from 8.3 percent, but only
because many people gave up look-
ing for work, so they were no longer
counted as unemployed.
The latest numbers were down-

Polo matches, big ladies hats and carriage
riding may not ll a typical Sunday afternoon.
But this weekend, the public is invited to par-
take in such festivities while raising funds for
wounded veterans.
Although it is a huge amount of fun, people

The San Francisco Commanderys third

Bean says is a favorite among the kids.
This year will be the benets second at the

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The childhood friend accused of fatally
gunning down an East Palo Alto activist at a
San Mateo shopping center in 2010 pleaded
not guilty Friday to murder and gun charges
that could send him to prison for life without
parole. He also wants his trial to begin by the
end of next month.
Gregory Elarms, 60, is also charged with
lying in wait for David Lewis which leaves
him facing no chance of parole if convicted of
rst-degree murder in the June 9, 2010 shoot-
ing. On Friday, after entering his plea, Elarms
declined to waive his right to a speedy prose-
cution and a jury trial was set for Oct. 29.
Elarms prosecution was on hold for the bet-
ter part of a year while he was hospitalized in
a state mental facility as incompetent but he
recently returned to San
Mateo County after doc-
tors concluded he is now
able to aid in his own
defense. A judge declared
him competent based on
those reports.
Elarms, of the East Bay
city of Pittsburg, is
accused of following
Lewis, 54, from the San
Mateo Medical Center where he was an out-
reach worker to the parking lot of Hillsdale
Shopping Center on June 9, 2010. Just before
6 p.m., Elarms allegedly pulled a .44-caliber
gun and shot Lewis in the torso.
During a preliminary hearing on the murder
and gun charges, a San Mateo police detective
testied that Elarms believed gangmembers
were after him and that Lewis, once his friend,
was now his opponent. Lewis uttered the
name Greg before dying but police made no
arrests until contacted by Elarms six months
after the shooting.
Lewis was known as a community activist
and rehabilitation counselor who overcame
addiction and incarceration.
Prosecutors could have sought the death
penalty for Elarms but opted against the
option in large part due to his mental history
and the predominance of drug rather than vio-
lent offenses on his extensive criminal record.
Before heading to trial, Elarms will again
ask a judge to let him re his court-appointed
attorney. A previous request to release the
same attorney was declined. A hearing on the
new motion is set for Sept. 14.
Elarms remains in custody without bail.

SACRAMENTO A panel of federal
judges wont consider easing its order that
California sharply reduce its prison popula-
tion to improve inmate care, but may give
state officials more time to comply, the
three judges said Friday.
State prison officials have said they wont
be able to meet a court-ordered deadline to
reduce the population of the states 33 adult
prisons by about 33,000 inmates by June
2013. They argue that they could house
another 3,000 inmates in those prisons
while still bringing conditions up to consti-
tutional standards for providing medical and
mental health care.
The judges wrote in a four-page order that
they are not willing to reconsider the popu-
lation cap order that was upheld by the U.S.
Supreme Court last year.
That question has already been litigated
and decided by this Court and affirmed by
the Supreme Court, and this Court is not
inclined to permit re-litigation of the proper
population cap at this time, they wrote.
It was a forceful rejection of the states
position that they are entitled to modify the
population cap, said Don Specter, director
of the nonprofit Berkeley-based Prison Law
Office. Heres my wish: that the state
would stop playing games with the court
and take the judgment of the U.S. Supreme
Court seriously and abide by the law of the
land.
Corrections officials said they could not
immediately comment.

citizenry of this state, but within his execu-
tive powers as governor. Nunez is the son of

Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez.

The San Carlos City Council will
consider adopting the states green
building standards which become
effective Jan. 1, 2014. The improved
standards will increase the cost to
build a new single-family residence of
3,500-square-foot in San Carlos to
$5,790. Energy savings is estimated at
$6,200 over a 30-year period. The City Council meets 7 p.m.
Monday, Sept. 10 at City Hall, 600 Elm St., San Carlos.
State law encourages reporting fan violence
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a bill
requiring professional sports stadiums and arenas to post secu-
rity phone numbers for fans to report vio-
lence.
AB2464 requires that phone numbers for
stadium security be posted in parking lots
and the stands after several high-prole
incidents of stadium violence.
Brown announced Friday that he signed
the bill into law.
Democratic Assemblyman Mike Gatto
of Los Angeles, who wrote the legislation,
says fans can call 911 to respond to vio-
lence, but the stadiums own security workers can get there
more quickly.
His legislation originally proposed creating the nations rst
sports ban list, but it was amended during committee hear-
ings. The original bill sought to block unruly fans from attend-
ing professional games anywhere in the state for up to ve
years.
California drivers can use
phones to prove insurance
SACRAMENTO California drivers will be able to use
their smartphones to show they have auto insurance under a
bill approved by Gov. Jerry Brown.
AB1708 gives Californians the option of presenting their
proof of insurance on a handheld device during trafc stops.
Brown announced he signed the measure Friday.
Democratic Assemblyman Mike Gatto of Los Angeles
sought to clarify the states vehicle code, which doesnt men-
tion electronic devices.
Though many insurance companies already have smart-
phone apps that display customer information, the law left law
enforcement ofcers in a gray area during trafc stops. Other
states have been considering similar changes to their laws.
Gatto has said his bill will also make it easier for motorists
because they wont have to rummage through their glove com-
partments searching for insurance papers.

DENVER Republican vice presi-
dential nominee Paul Ryan told a
Colorado television station that he thinks
the federal government shouldnt inter-
fere with states that have legalized med-
ical marijuana.
Ryan, a Wisconsin congressman, told
KRDO-TV in Colorado Springs that he
personally doesnt approve of medical
marijuana laws. But he said that states
should have the right to choose whether
to legalize the drug for medical purposes.
Its up to Coloradans to decide, he
said in response to a reporters question.
A clip of the interview aired Friday.
Ryan added that the issue would not be
a high priority in a Romney-Ryan
administration.
Ryan taped the interview while cam-
paigning this week in
Colorado Springs.
A spokesman for
Ryan later said that
Ryan agrees with
Republican presiden-
tial nominee Mitt
Romney, who has
said that marijuana
should never be
legalized.
Romney told a Colorado reporter earli-
er this year, I think marijuana should not
be legal in this country. I believe its a
gateway drug to other drug violations.
Ryans statement contrasted with the
administration of President George W.
Bush, which sent federal agents to raid
dispensaries in California that were legal
under that states voter-approved medical
marijuana law.
Initially, the Barack Obama adminis-
tration signaled that it would not interfere
with state-sanctioned marijuana distribu-
tion. But Obamas Justice Department
has since angered marijuana activists by
shutting down dispensaries in California
and Colorado.
Colorado is one of 17 states, plus the
District of Columbia, that allow medical
marijuana.
Marijuana activists lauded Ryan but
said they werent sure a Romney admin-
istration would embrace states that con-
done medical marijuana.
Well take this with a grain of salt,
said Steve Fox of the Washington-based
Marijuana Policy Project.
Fox said Republicans and Democrats
alike have said they want to respect state
marijuana laws while enforcing federal
law, which outlaws pot in all circum-
stances. He called Ryans comments sig-
nicant because they indicate a new will-
ingness from to politicians to talk about
marijuana policy.
Ryan: Dont interfere with
legalized medical marijuana

U.S. declares Haqqani network a terrorist body
WASHINGTON The Obama administration declared
Friday that the Pakistan-based Haqqani network of militants is
a terrorist body despite misgivings about
how the largely symbolic act could further
stall planned Afghan peace talks or put yet
another chill on the United States already
fragile counterterrorism alliance with
Islamabad.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clintons decision, signed Friday ahead of
a Sunday deadline set by Congress, bans
Americans from doing business with mem-
bers of the group and blocks any assets it
holds in the United States. The order, which will go into effect
within 10 days, completes an odyssey of sorts for the Haqqanis
from the days they partnered with the CIA during the Cold
War and were hailed as freedom ghters.
Clinton, whose advisers were of two minds about whether
the designation was the right path, said in a statement Friday
that the U.S. will also continue our robust campaign of diplo-
matic, military and intelligence pressure on the network,
demonstrating the United States resolve to degrade the orga-
nizations ability to execute violent attacks.
Feds: Love triangle feud led to false jet threat
PHILADELPHIA A man angry about a compromising
Facebook photo of his girlfriend took revenge against the ex-
boyfriend who posted it, making a hoax call to police that set
off a terrorism scare and got the former beau taken off an air-
liner at gunpoint, authorities say.
The new boyfriend, Kenneth W. Smith Jr., was arrested
Friday on charges of making a false threat to Philadelphia
police, who recalled a Dallas-bound ight and marched the ex-
beau, Christopher Shell, off the plane Thursday.
The episode led to Shells own arrest on drug warrants after

Green Valley, Arizona. The soft-side of
the Arizona morning sun was shining
through her window. The crocheted
bears and clown looked on from the
bureau. As did photos of her daughter
and partner, great-grandson, deceased
husband, and attentive nieces. After
weeks of a brave battle, her shallow
breaths had silenced. Peace and
comfort at last! It was a new day in
this beautiful elder home, where she
had arrived days before as their rst
hospice patient. The only sounds now were from the
garden. Mollie, the chocolate lab puppy, ipped her
toy.
The start of each new day was always Edys
anticipated joy. Her devoted daughter, Paula-Jo,
and her grandson, Kenneth, had spent the night.
This was truly a different dawning.
Over 94 years ago on December 23, 1917, Edith
Angelina Novelli was born to an immigrant Italian
family. It was rural Santa Rosa. She was the fourth
of six; with the only son born last. As a child, she
climbed trees, and loved math and handwriting. She
ran to meet Papa after his work, so she could ride
home on his handlebars and eat the piece of fruit
he had saved from lunch. She played competitive
tennis with a winning racquet, void of many strings.
Christmas presents were fruits and nuts donated
by neighbors. The daughters were pulled from
high school to work. She rebelled at the double
standard. She eventually married, then left, like
her older sisters. Her daughter, Beverly, was born at
18. The marriage was over in a few years, when her
husbands disrespect of women stayed.
Years later in her late
twenties, Edy met the allure of
San Francisco. She arrived as
a single mother. Her daughter
had special physical needs.
She lived with her oldest sister,
Mary Bacigalupi, her husband,
Gus, with their extended family
in North Beach. They were
the foundation for decades of
Edys vibrant life; Beverlys;
and even her next daughters
successful role modeling. Edy worked at Pacific
Telephone Company at One Powell Street. She
became an accounting supervisor quickly; sang
in private clubs and public places; and met her
next husband, George GJ Husack, when he was
getting discharged off the USS Hornet at the end
of the war. He was a cute, much younger guy from
Pennsylvania. They married and Edy continued to
work and sing. It continued to be a vibrant life,
including regular, extended-family dinners.
Eventually, Edy recorded her rst tune, St. Louis
Woman. Many years later, her big recording break
came. By then, motherhood was the stronger calling.
Edy and GJ gave birth to Paula-Jo at the unexpected
seventh month; and an unexpected world-statistic
surviving premie. It was a second generation birth,
more common today. Edys singing continued. She
and her daughters eventually performed three-part
harmonics. Next, she learned the accordion. Her
endless curiosity, optimism, determination, and
creativity were stamped into her girls.
Eventually, Edy found single parenting again, this
time with Paula-Jo. She lived in San Bruno, worked
a double shift at Uncle Toms Cabin; then another
till closing down the street. The Bacigalupis were
there again, planting the suburban garden. So,
when the Mulcrevy Familys Uncle Johns Pancake
House was hiring in Millbrae, she was ectatic:
One full-time job with benefits! From its opening
day to more than twenty years later, she found
a second family. The Mulcrevy sisters, the
staff, and countless customers became life-long
friends. She took up needle crafts and stitched
blankets for their babies.
Edys keen competitive spirit exploded around
pool tables. She was 411, not much taller than the
stick, or the table. She won money and, eventually,
the heart of her third and nal husband, Don Drake.
He was a real estate broker, who stood more than
6 feet tall. He challenged her to a memorable,
heated game. They married in 1963, after 5 years
of proposals. They were lovebirds and best friends
forever. He passed in 2007.
Together, they were car trip adventurers, seeking
new golf courses to play. They eventually moved to
Green Valley, Arizona to retire among golf courses
and a new set of friends. Long-time friends visited.
Edy sang. She led others in song, standing on
chairs.
Edys artistic blossoming was as big as the desert.
While in Green Valley, she designed and made her
clothes. She crocheted intricate decorative pillows,
baby clothes, and afghans. She became noted most
for her elaborately-designed, colorful clowns, which
combined knit and crochet. Each was a unique,
cuddly work of art. They were coveted by family,
friends, and gallery owners.
In her last four years, there were many more health
challenges. She rebounded countless times, always
resuming the next clown. Drs. Edita Mendoza and
Drs. Mitzi Barmatz were her highly-skilled providers
and cheerleaders for more than a decade.
They respected Edys uniqueness and immense
capabilities into her nineties. Her awesome Green
Valley friends, like Margie, Alice Ann, Ken, Ann
and Wally, Doris and others were on her daily life
team and a joy. Margie was her angel on earth!
Though Edys pace was tempered this year, her
vibrance, optimism, and humor kept their shine.
She remained on top of daily activities, game
shows, sports broadcasts, 60 minutes, Dancing
With the Stars, and her latest bear design. She
followed up with her family and closest friends.
This last seven weeks, she was on an erratic roller
coaster going down. Still, shed smile, get mad at
what was interrupting her future plans, and make
some anyway. In her final hours, she heard her
daughter sing her two favorite songs: The Lords
Prayer, followed by St. Louis Woman. Edy, well
miss seeing whats next.
Mother, Nonie, wife, friend--were sad youre
gone and so glad you were here: Daughter Paula-
Jo Husack (Paul Cohen), San Francisco; nieces
and nephews, especially Carolyn (Gerry) Kersten,
Redding; Rita Costa Sauer, Chico; Grandsons,
especially Kenneth (Shelley) Morse, Dallas; and
the Texas-sized Morse families through Edys
predeceased daughter, Beverly, including her great-
grandson and co-hotwheel player, Wade Morse.
In lieu of owers, donations to Human investment
Project (HIP Housing) San Mateo would be
appreciated. A celebration mass for Edy is Friday,
Sept. 14, 10:30 a.m., at St. Roberts Parish, San Bruno.

Elderly woman killed
in El Camino crash
An 85-year-old Burlingame
woman was killed Friday morning
when the car she was riding in rear-
ended another car at a stoplight,
police said.
The crash occurred around 9:45
a.m. on El Camino Real at
Trousdale Drive, according to
Burlingame police Sgt. Don
Shepley.
A BMW driven by an 82-year-old
Hillsborough woman was stopped
at a red light in the left lane of El
Camino Real when it was rear-
ended by a northbound Mercedes in
the same lane.
The Mercedes passenger, an 85-
year-old Burlingame woman, was
not wearing a seat belt and was
killed in the crash, Shepley said.
She was identied by the San Mateo
County Coroners Ofce as Elsie
Noceti.
The driver of the Mercedes, a 90-
year-old Burlingame woman, was
taken to a hospital for observation.
The BMWs driver was not hurt,
Shepley said.
He said the driver of the
Mercedes appears to have been at
fault, but the accident remains under
investigation.
County holds
foreclosure resource fair
The third annual Foreclosure
Resource Fair this weekend will
have a special focus on homeowners
underwater in addition to offering
aid to those already facing or in the
midst of foreclosure.
The fair, hosted by Supervisor
Rose Jacobs Gibson, gives atten-
dees the chance to meet one-on-one
with their lender and a housing
counselor to talk about ways of
addressing their mortgage obliga-
tions. Representatives from Bank of
America, Chase Bank, PNC
Mortgage and Wells Fargo are
scheduled to attend along with local
attorneys offering advice to home-
owners on their legal options.
This year, I am especially excit-
ed that possible renancing oppor-
tunities will be offered to residents
who are underwater on their mort-
gage, Gibson said in a prepared
statement.
Gibson will be joined by state
Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto,
Asssemblyman Rich Gordon and
Redwood City Vice Mayor Jeff Gee.
The fair is 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Two-alarmfire damages
Redwood City home
A two-alarm re caused signi-
cant damage to a Redwood City
home Friday morning, according to
a re ofcial.
The re at 520 Madison Ave. was
reported at 9:46 a.m., according to
Fire Marshal Jim Palisi.
A total of eight engines and two
truck companies responded to the
re, which was brought under con-
trol by 10:18 a.m.
One occupant was checked by
paramedics for possible smoke
inhalation, but was not taken to the
hospital, Palisi said.
The re caused signicant dam-
age to the second oor of the two-
story single-family home, Palisi
said.
He said the cause and origin of
the blaze remain under investiga-
tion.
PG&E contract
workers confirmed
Recent reports of suspicious men
checking gas meters in Burlingame
were checked out and the men
were indeed contractors with
Pacific Gas and Electric, according
to Burlingame police.
The workers are employed by
Energy Experts International and
have been contracted to check gas
service risers for leaks and ensure
all risers and gas meters are free of
corrosion, according to
Burlingame police Sgt. Don
Shepley. They carry PG&E identi-
fication cards and will be wearing
clothing that displays the logo of
Energy Experts International,
Shepley added.
Residents had reported in late
August that men had identified
themselves as PG&E employees in
three incidents on Poppy Drive and
Drake Avenue. Police had warned
that the men could be posing as
workers to gain access to their
homes to commit residential burgla-
ries but determined this week they
were legitimate contract employees.
Still, the Burlingame police
advise residents to never let
strangers into their homes and to
ask for identication. If there are
any questions, call police, Shepley
said.

deadly weapon, false imprisonment
and terrorist threats, according to

Canada closes Tehran
embassy, kicks out diplomats
TORONTO Canada shut its
embassy in Tehran on Friday, sev-
ered diplomatic relations and
ordered Iranian diplomats to leave,
accusing the Islamic Republic of
being the most signicant threat to
world peace.
The surprise action reinforces the
Conservative governments close
ties with Tehrans arch foe Israel but
also removes some of Washingtons
eyes and ears inside the Iranian cap-
ital.
It comes as Irans talks with
world powers over its nuclear pro-
gram have stalled and Israel is
weighing the option of a military
strike to prevent it from developing
atomic weapons. Iran insists its
nuclear program is for peaceful
objectives only.
Bermuda on alert as

HAMILTON, Bermuda People

again while passing to the east of this
Atlantic Ocean island.
The Bermuda Weather Service
said the storm was on track to pass
about 200 miles (321 kilometers)
east-southeast of the island late
Sunday afternoon as a Category 1
hurricane.

OPINION 9
Browns school budget cuts
Editor,
There is one simple reason Gov.
Brown threatens to cut school spending
if his tax increases do not pass: If the
voters prove too intelligent to vote
themselves tax increases, he wants to
make sure that the next generation is
stupid enough to vote differently. It
might just work, and the insane public
employee pensions can continue.

VP qualifications? Any?
Editor,
One has to wonder why Republican
presidential candidates keep picking
unqualied vice presidents, like Spiro
Agnew, Dan Quayle, Dick Cheney,
Sarah Palin and now Paul Ryan. None
of these were ready to assume the presi-
dency of the United States, and none
even possessed the intelligence, experi-
ence, integrity, background or ability to
learn as fast as required for the highest
ofce in the world. Could it be that the
GOP presidential hopefuls are so inse-
cure that they need even less qualied
running mates to look more attractive,
or is it simply a subtle life insurance to
have an even less qualied person as a
backup? Or, arent there more qualied
people within the Republican ranks?
The contrast with Democratic candi-
dates is striking.
Such low requirements demonstrate a
frightening disrespect for the ofce of
the presidency. To even suggest that
those listed above have what it takes to
lead our nation is worse than a bad
joke. It is unpatriotic and un-American
to settle for anyone less than the most
qualied for such a job. What could be
more important? We have seen what
unqualied Republican presidents have
done to the economy, science, education
and international relations, results of
which we are still struggling with. It
seems like the most important quali-
cation is what faith the candidates
have, or at least that he or she has a rec-
ognized faith, whether the object of the
belief is real or not. What on at earth
does that have to do with presidential
qualications? Unfortunately, too many
gullible voters believe it does.

War on women?
Editor,
The Democrats, still accusing
Republicans of waging a war on
women, have as their prime time con-
vention speaker none other than the
heroic lion of that party, William
Jefferson Clinton. But how about all
those women, including Monica
Lewinsky, an intern half his age, includ-
ing Juanita Broderick, Catherine Willey,
Paula Jones and others who were not
only sexually harassed and even
(allegedly) raped by Clinton himself,
but then portrayed as liars by his politi-
cal operatives. When the Democrats talk
about war on women maybe they
should look no further than their prime
time speaker Wednesday night.

Letters to the editor
The News & Observer of Raleigh
W
hats next? Leaving the
gum on the steps of the
Lincoln Memorial? Or per-
haps Republicans in the U.S. House
will decide to leave the pool at the
World War II memorial empty. Maybe
theyll want to cut back services at the
Smithsonian and leave the ngerprints
on John Glenns Friendship 7 capsule.
For who would have thought the
day would come when the harsh par-
tisanship of even the tea party
Republicans would prohibit impor-
tant repairs to no less a building than
the United States Capitol, the heart
and soul, at least in terms of hard
structures, of American democracy?
But thats whats happening.
The Capitol Dome is in such a state
and Stephen Ayers, who holds the posi-
tion of architect of the Capitol, says it
now ranks as a safety hazard.
The Dome, that grand and historic
symbol, hasnt had any major renova-
tions in 50 years. Given that it is in
Washington, a city which suffers
extremes of weather with blistering
summers and heavy snowfalls in winter,
that is remarkable.
And, as it turns out, neglectful.
There now are 1,300 known cracks in
the Dome. That means there likely are
many more.
Democrats in the Senate have appro-
priated $61 million to x the Dome.
Republicans in the House, where tea
partyers willing not long ago to shut
down the government over a budget
dispute are in charge, wont act.
Theyre standing by their austerity
promises.
For the American people, no matter
which political side they happen to be
on, this dispute surely rises to the top
of the list of reasons why Congress
nds itself with improvement ratings in
the cellar underneath the cellar.
Many descriptions of that scenario
come to mind. Shrewd politics isnt one
of them.
U.S. Capitol neglect
Ghost of Ronald
Reagan looms large
By Dwight L. Schwab
M
itt Romney should more than likely trounce
President Obama in the debates. The testy primary
ght did wonders for his debating skills and gave
the GOP nominee a tougher skin for sharp
criticism.
According to Robert Reich, the former
Secretary of the Treasury under Bill
Clinton, Romney is going to be debating
somebody who is not nearly as good a
debater as his reputation. Reich contends
that Obama has been given way too much
credit for his live questioning sessions (a
rarity without teleprompter assistance) say-
ing he can seem kind of wooden at times
and/or at a loss for words.
Romney appears less scripted even when it is prepared text
he is reading. It will come across in a more dramatic fashion
when viewed by millions of Americans in the October debates.
Obama will have to struggle for discipline in his remarks since
he is notorious for his rambling answers in an attempt to con-
trol the stage.
Romney has extensive experience in a debate environment.
His rst debating challenge on a statewide arena was against
Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy in his unsuc-
cessful bid for the U.S. Senate in 1994. It resumed with his
then successful 2002 challenge for the Massachusetts gover-
norship and the failed 2008 presidential bid.
Now his biggest stage of all will pit him against what many
Democrats call the second great communicator a play on
words to Ronald Reagans much deserved nickname during his
presidency (1981-89).
Reich reected about Romneys background in big business
and the urgency of being on top off your game in multi-billion
dollar deals. He will have done a huge amount of homework.
He will have moot debates with debating partners, as they all
do. But he truly will have internalized a lot of the questions
and the most effective responses.
Again, the majority of that sort of political debating experi-
ence will derive from multiple opponents in two presidential
primaries. Look for Romney to incorporate Reagans easy-
going manner (There you go again) to Obamas more defen-
sive and serious posturing.
Romneys main fallacies are his inability to speak above
generalities and a perception of awkwardness once trapped in a
situation he is neither aware of or prepared to defend. Note his
disastrous cornering facing Texas Gov. Rick Perry when he
challenged him to a $10,000 bet on Perrys accusations when
caught unprepared and forced to improvise.
Obama is an experienced debater. His scalp belt includes the
likes of Hillary Clinton no pushover as a debater. But where
he may be most vulnerable is his own words from 2008,
Change you can believe in. He will be forced to admit that
didnt work with telling quotes like, Things could be worse.
Romneys debate experience with the ultra-liberal Ted
Kennedy will instill condence that he can counter Obamas
wild claims and keep the presidents feet rmly set in reality.
Romney was capable of holding his own against Kennedy two
weeks before the 1994 election coming against a man who had
served ve terms in the Senate.
The former governor will almost certainly say something in
one of the debates like he said of Kennedy: People in
Massachusetts have been watching, for 32 years, Sen.
Kennedy, they appreciate what he has done, but they recognize
that our world has changed and that the answers of the 1960s
arent working anymore.
That could be as good a retort as Reagans Are you better
off than you were four-years ago? to then-President Jimmy
Carter. That will allow the nationwide audience to come to
terms with Obamas service and quietly remove a failure for
someone new.
No hard-knuckle politics. That is Romneys natural style.
The strategy is to attack your opponent, defend your record,
anticipate the oppositions arguments and be ready to counter.
Romney had more than 50 televised hours of primary debat-
ing from September 2011 until March 2012. Who can forget
Romney standing at the podium blinking furiously with a
smirk on his face as his rabid opponents bashed him merciless-
ly. He exhibited a calm amusement as his squabbling oppo-
nents outdid one another trying to break the primary leader.
Romney is seriously underrated as a debater. As David
Axelrod put it, It is very unlikely that he is going to come in
there without knowing much of what he is going to say, or
without having practiced it relentlessly or delivered it over and
over.
Something that Jimmy Carter neglected to consider with a
well-versed and well-tested Ronald Reagan.

or broke careers, ghts broke out and
factions struggled for control of the
partys soul. The switch to a reliance on
primaries and caucuses to select dele-
gates pledged to particular candidates
pretty much precludes suspense.
Conventions have become corona-
tions. Mitt Romney sewed up the
Republican nomination long before
Tropical Storm Isaac was named, much
less threatened to swamp Tampa before
turning toward Louisiana and growing
into a hurricane. And there was never
any doubt President Barack Obama
would be the Democrats nominee.
Conventions used to be like carnivals;
now they resemble infomercials. And
their predictability is bipartisan.
Not only are the nominations a fore-
gone conclusion, but the development
of party platforms is an exercise in
irrelevancy. The winner will rip out
inconvenient platform planks at will.
Conventions have become pep rallies.
There is value in that to both parties
energizing party loyalists to sway unde-
cided voters during the nal push to
Election Day could make a difference
in a close race but the value dimin-
ishes every four years.

Free Marketing Seminar

NEW YORK The stock market
followed one of its most exciting days
of the year with a rather dull one Friday.
Indexes barely rose following a weak
jobs report, which increased hopes that
the Federal Reserve would act next
week to support the economy.
The gains, while meager, kept major
market indexes at their highest levels in
more than four years following a mas-
sive surge the day before.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 14.64 points to close at 13,306.64.
The Standard & Poors 500 was up 5.80
points to 1,437.92. The Nasdaq com-
posite barely moved, up 0.61 points at
3,136.42.
The government reported that 96,000
jobs were created in the U.S. last
month, fewer than economists had fore-
cast. The unemployment rate fell to 8.1
percent from 8.3 percent, but only
because more people gave up looking
for work.
Tech bellwether Intel dealt a blow to
the market early in the day by cutting
its revenue outlook because of weak
demand for its semiconductors. Intel
fell 90 cents, or nearly 4 percent, to
$24.19.
The flat trading for the major indexes
Friday followed big gains Thursday.
U.S. stocks hit four-year highs after the
European Central Bank announced
plans to buy an unlimited amount of
short-term government bonds from
struggling countries in the region such
as Italy and Spain. The hope is that the
borrowing costs of those countries will
fall, making a breakup of the 17-nation
euro zone less likely.
Steven Ricchiuto, chief economist at
Mizuho Securities, said the weak U.S.
jobs report means the Federal Reserve
is more likely to announce steps at its
meeting next week to keep interest rates
low and encourage lending. He thinks
the Fed will announce that it will hold
benchmark rates near zero through
2015 and, possibly, launch a third round
of bond purchases.
The economy is still struggling, and
so its subject to shocks from overseas,
Ricchiuto said. Were going to get
more stimulus from the Fed.
Shortly after jobs numbers were
released, analysts from RBS told
investors in a note that they see the like-
lihood of the Fed announcing new bond
purchases next week at 90 percent. We
expect the Fed to act in September,
they wrote.

Big movers

NEW YORK It was a big week for
gadget announcements as Amazon,
Nokia and Motorola all tried to generate
interest in their products before Apples
expected announcement of a new iPhone
next Wednesday.
Amazon announced four new Kindle
Fire models and a new line of stand-
alone e-readers on Thursday, a day after
Nokia and Motorola unveiled ve new
smartphones between them.
Makers of consumer electronics are
refreshing their products for the holiday
shopping season. Apples rivals are hop-
ing that a head start on the buzz will
translate into stronger sales.
Nokia and Microsoft, in particular, are
trying to generate interest in a new
Windows operating system out next
month. The two phones announced
Wednesday by Nokia are its rst to run
Windows Phones 8.
Sales of Apples iPhones are still
strong, though the company lost the lead
in smartphones to Samsung this year.
Samsung Electronics Co. beneted from
having its Galaxy S III out in the U.S. in
June, while Apple was still selling an
iPhone model released last October. A
new iPhone is expected as early as this
month, allowing Apple to recapture the
attention and the revenue.
Apple dominates the market for tablet
computers. Seven out of every 10 tablets
shipped in the second quarter were
iPads, according to research rm IHS
iSuppli.

Googles stock tops $700 for first time since 2007
Googles shares topped $700 Friday, crossing the mile-
stone for the rst time since 2007.
The comeback keeps Google Inc. in step with major mar-
ket gauges as Wall Street extends its recovery from the Great
Recession of 2008 and 2009. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age touched its highest level since 2007 earlier this week and
the broader Standard & Poors 500 is nearing its late 2007
levels.
Googles stock last traded above $700 on New Years Eve
2007, before the markets suffered the great falls of 2008. As
the recession deepened, Googles shares traded as low as
$247.30 in late November 2008.
The shares rose $6.75 to close Friday at $706.15.
Intel warns 3Q revenue will drop on PC weakness
SAN FRANCISCO Intels sales are falling at a rate that
blindsided the chip-makers management, amplifying Wall
Streets worries about the slumping personal computer mar-
ket and the frail economy.
The foreboding news came out Friday in revisions to Intel
Corp.s nancial guidance for its current quarter.
The worlds largest maker of computer chips now expects
to post third-quarter revenue of $13.2 billion. That would
represent a 7 percent decline from the same time last year
when Intels revenue totaled $14.2 billion.

The judge on Friday approved the disclosure statement
outlining Solyndras plan, under which the federal govern-
ment stands to recover little, if any, of the $528 million loan
that Solyndra received from the Obama administration
before ling for bankruptcy protection last year.

SAN FRANCISCO Marco Scutaro hit a
tiebreaking, two-run single in the seventh
inning and the San Francisco Giants beat the
rival Dodgers 5-2 on Friday night to extend
their NL West lead to 5 1/2 games over Los
Angeles.
After Angel Pagan drew an intentional walk
from Josh Beckett (1-2) to load the bases,
Scutaro followed with a bloop single to shallow
right. He came through yet again for his new
team and in a key series opener in early
September this time.
San Francisco (78-60) won its fourth straight
against Los Angeles after a sweep at Dodger
Stadium from Aug. 20-22. The Giants lead the
division by 5 1/2 games for the rst time since
ending the 2003 season with a 15 1/2-game
cushion. They have two more chances with a
sellout home crowd this weekend to create fur-
ther distance from the Dodgers.
Santiago Casilla (7-5) relieved Tim
Lincecum and recorded the nal two outs of
the seventh for the win.
The Giants answered
after Adam Kennedy hit a
go-ahead solo home run in
the top of the sixth to make
it 2-1.
Hunter Pence, another
recent addition for the
playoff push, tied it on an
infield single down the
third-base line in the bot-
tom half. Kennedy tried to barehand the high
bouncer, which got under his glove and
allowed Pagan to score.
Hector Sanchez singled to start the seventh
and Gregor Blanco entered to pinch-run, then
stole second. Brandon Crawford walked and
pinch-hitter Emmanuel Burriss sacrificed.
Pagan was intentionally walked to load the
bases for Scutaro, who delivered another clutch
hit in a career full of them. It was his second
one this homestand after a game-winning sin-
gle in the 10th inning of Mondays 9-8 win
against Arizona.

Aragons J.D. Elzie breaks into the open eld on his way to a 77-yard punt return for a
touchdown during the Dons 40-21 win over SanMateo. Elzie also had an 87-yard kickoff re-
turn to open the game and added 81 yards and another score rushing.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It was obvious the Aragon football team was
playing its rst game of the season when it
hosted San Mateo Friday night.
Penalties (9-87) and turnovers (three)
marred some of the game for the Dons, but
they made plays in all phases of the game
offense, defense and special teams proving
they still had more than enough to post a 40-
21 win over their crosstown rival.
If we would have come out and played a
clean, flawless game, I wouldve been
shocked, said Aragon coach Steve Sell. (It
was) sloppy. (We have a) lot of work to do.
As long as the Dons have J.D. Elzie and
Marcell Jackson in the game, they should be
just ne this season. Elzie lived up to his rep-
utation as one of the fastest players on the
Peninsula as he returned the opening kickoff
87 yards for a score and then just before half-
time, added a 77-yard punt return for a touch-
down, giving Aragon a 27-9 lead at halftime.
Hes is electric, Sell said. Its been a few
years since weve had someone who makes
you say, Wow.
Elzie also added 81 yards rushing on nine
carries and capped his night with a weaving,
spinning and juking 22-yard touchdown run in
the fourth quarter.
Even without Elzies exploits, Aragon was
too much for the Bearcats. Jackson proved he
is just as effective, as he led the Dons with 91
yards on 11 carries and scored on runs of 25
and 4 yards.
Ill tell you what, Marcell Jackson is no
slouch, Sell said.
Jackson can thank his offensive line for
paving the way to his 25-yard score. After tak-
ing the handoff, the Dons line red out, pan-
caking three San Mateo defenders, allowing
Jackson to go nearly untouched into the end
zone.
On defense, David Manoa was all over the
place from his defensive end position. He

Burlingame head football coach John
Philipopoulos said Fridays game against
Woodside could not come soon enough for
lack of a better term, the Panthers were
chomping at the bit.
A week after racking up nearly 400 yards on
offense and basically outplaying Saratoga
only to come away with a loss, Burlingame
was in desperate need of another 48 minutes to
redeem themselves. And the unfortunate vic-
tim of said frustration was Woodside High
School.
The Panthers picked up their rst win of the
2012 season in emphatic fashion, beating up
on the Wildcats 45-6 in a game that was
played under a running clock for the last
11:50.
I think this week we finished,
Philipopoulos said of the win the rst on
Burlingames new articial surface in ve
chances. We came out here, we worked on it
and talked about it all week about playing
a full four quarters and nishing the deal. We
were in great position to get the win last week
we did everything right except for four or
ve plays and those four or ve plays were the
difference between victory and defeat. We
really, really worked on this week and we
emphasized: were going to go out fast and
regardless of the score, were going to nish
the football game and I think we did that in all
three phases of the game.
Burlingame is a great team, said
Woodside rst-year head coach Josh Bowie.

GREEN BAY, Wis. Green Bay is Exhibit
A in an NFL trend that emphasizes mesmeriz-
ing passing games above all else, and Aaron
Rodgers nearly passed the Packers to an unde-
feated season in 2011.
The San Francisco 49ers bucked that trend
last year, winning primarily with defense and
running back Frank Gore and they made it
farther than the Packers in the playoffs.
And while both teams spent the offseason
trying to become more well-rounded, neither
is expected to stray too far from their identity
in Sunday's season opener at Lambeau Field.
Obviously, what they
like to do is grind the ball
out, grind away in the
trenches, and theyre real-
ly good at that, Packers
wide receiver Greg
Jennings said. And they
try to eliminate that on the
opposing side. What we
do is we spread em out
and we throw the ball
around and we have fun doing it.
All that fun didnt get the Packers back to
the Super Bowl, so they tried to x their
porous defense with draft picks and beef up
their running game with the addition of Cedric
Benson. The 49ers added a
few new pieces to their
passing game including
old Packers nemesis
Randy Moss.
Those tweaks add
intrigue to a pair of poten-
tial Super Bowl con-
tenders, but arent likely to
change either teams basic
approach.
Everybody has a formula or team identity
they try to play to, Packers coach Mike
McCarthy said. I thought the 49ers did a very
good job playing to their identity. Obviously,
their success reected that and I think they
continued that through the preseason. Their
preseason tape has been very good. Were
preparing for their style of play.
Still, the addition of veteran wideouts Moss
and Mario Manningham, along with the selec-
tion of Illinois wide receiver A.J. Jenkins in
the rst round of the draft, at least opens up
the possibility that the 49ers will make more
big plays.
Moss is 35 and was out of football last sea-
son, but 49ers quarterback Alex Smith says
theres no doubt in his mind that Moss
remains a dangerous player.

Michell Vlahos, the head softball coach at Menlo College,
admits her new job title has a nice ring to it.
The title sounded like it t, she said, just like just the
same way Menlo seem to t as soon as I got on campus. The
content that Keith (Spataro) was building as soon as I heard
about the job really t in with what hes done with the school.
I thought that was a staff I wanted to be a part of.
After a 2-13 record in the Pacic Coast
Conference and a 10-31 campaign overall
last season, Menlo announced Thursday
theyre starting anew with Vlahos at the
helm of the softball program.
We are absolutely thrilled to have
Michell lead our softball program into an
exciting new era, said Menlo Director of
Athletics Keith Spataro via press release.
Michells wealth of experience, vast
knowledge of the game and tremendous
track record provide an incredible oppor-
tunity to turn the softball team into a perennial powerhouse
year in and year out.
Vlahos will no doubt need her A game if shes to turn over
the Oaks. Since the 2000-2001 season, Menlo has not
enjoyed a winning season. Theyre best years were in 2001-
2001 went they were 11-11 and 2007-2008 when they n-
ished 18-18.
In all of my factors, the past seasons were never in my
mind, to be honest, Vlahos said. The past history was never
a problem. Everything that is actually happening [right now]
seemed like a positive move forward.
Vlahos enters her Oaks tenure after a great deal of success
at both the NCAA Division I level and the NAIA stage, most
recently coming over from the University of California at
Riverside where she spent one year as assistant coach.
While at Riverside, Vlahos played an inuential role as the
hitting coach, leading the Highlanders to the programs most
wins in Division I history with 25, while the teams .281 bat-
ting average was also the highest mark of all-time.
The Oaks hit just .255 as a team last season and were
outscored 270-146 overall.
They know going into this that were going to start from
the basics up, so they understand what the philosophies are as
the team, what our goals are, Vlahos said. So were going
to start from the basics level in so they know what to expect.
We have to build somewhere. The past has been rocky but I
have no problem telling the kids Im expecting myself to be
around for a while so Im going to build somewhere and they
know that were breaking it all the way down to basics.
Prior to coming to Riverside, Vlahos helped propel NAIA
Savannah College of Art and Design to greater heights as an
assistant head coach and hitting instructor. The Bees enjoyed
two 30-win seasons, two Sun Conference titles and two trips
to the NAIA National Championship tournament in Vlahos
three years with the program.
SCAD also dominated the conference from an offensive
standpoint, leading the pack in team batting average all three
seasons with Vlahos as hitting coach.
I think that Im willing to adjust to the times, Vlahos said
of her success as an offensive mastermind. Luckily for me,
softball is always adjusting and so, I take new drills, new con-
cepts, things from other coaches and inuence them into my
programs. I love one-on-one attention so using those con-
cepts, being able to implement my own philosophies with
those concepts with the players individually has really
helped.
More than anything, Vlahos is hoping to add stability to the
Menlo program. The Oaks have had three different head
coaches in the past three seasons.
I believe that it does, Vlahos said when asked if she felt
coaching stability makes a big difference in a college pro-
gram. Im actually a player from a college that had multiple
coaches and the lack of stability denitely inuences a pro-
gram. So I know stability will help. Im hoping to give Menlo
quite a few years of my life here because I know its kind of
an injustice to these athletes if you dont do everything you
can. So thats my plan, to give everything I can for as long as
I can and build a foundation.

Having won back-to-back conference titles, the Caada womens
golf team has already put the rest of the Central Valley Conference on
notice that the Colts will be gunning for the three-peat.
They have already won a preseason tournament and the rst con-
ference tournament of the season Thursday. Coach Rick Velasquez
said his team shot identical 325s in both tournaments, beating runner-
up Fresno by 11 shots Thursday.
Were hoping to be better as the season goes along, Velasquez
said.
While the Colts return only two players from last years conference
championship team, they reloaded with a group of freshmen who are
used to doing nothing but win. Shannon Wong was a standout for the
Lincoln-San Francisco team that captured the Academic Athletic
Association tournament championship. During her high school career,
Wong was part of three team championships and won an AAA indi-
vidual tournament title in 2009. Sarah Rotter is out of Mission San
Jose-Fremont, whose team won the Mission Valley Athletic League,
North Coast Section and Northern California championships last year.
Michelle Wong (no relation to Shannon Wong) was part of the San
Mateo team that went 10-0 in Peninsula Athletic League play last sea-
son and qualied for the Central Coast Section tournament.
They, along with College of the Desert (Palm Desert) transfer
Annika Nousiainen, join sophomores Mehreen Raheel and Half
Moon Bays Hannah Murray. Mehreen is an international student
from Pakistan who captured Central Valley Conference Player of the
Year honors last season, while Murray has developed by leaps and
bounds since picking up the game.
Shes really improved her game. She worked hard over the sum-
mer, Velasquez said. She hasnt been playing long, just two years.
Caada has won conference titles the last two years and is the only
junior college womens golf program in the Bay Area. Velasquez said
the word is out about the Colts program, which makes recruiting that
much easier.
Its getting to the point where I dont have to call anybody, they call
me, Velasquez said. For the rst time in six years (since starting the
program) we nally have a team where all the girls love the game of
golf. Some of them play every day. Several played in junior tourna-
ments during the summer. Theyre really experienced in tournament
golf. They werent intimidated at all about playing in college.
[Any one] of them can step up and be medalists (at any given tour-
nament).
Now that the team is lled with quality golfers, Velasquez said his
role as coach has changed this season. No longer does he have to work
with the players on the fundamentals of the game. Instead, he can
focus their attention on course management, rules and etiquette of the
game.
[The coaching staff] pretty much leaves their swings alone,
Velasquez said.
He also said having players come from winning programs translates
into the drive to play well at the college level. There is an old saying
that iron sharpens iron, meaning a player or team can get better by
playing with and against better players. That is denitely the case for

The formula keeps working for the Peninsula
Nationals 12-under baseball team.
A week after dominating the eld during the
Summer Heart Tournament at Wilcox High
School, the team from San Mateo used pitching
and defense to win the USSSA Labor Day
Tournament at Twin Creeks Sports Complex in
Sunnyvale. The win marked the second year in a
row the Nationals won the same tournament.
It is nice, said San Mateo manager David
Villar. When everything starts rolling, and every-
thing starts to click, its good to see that. Weve
been able to put everything together lately. Thats
the best I can say.
The tournament win marks the third in a row for
San Mateo. Jeremy Villar was named the tourna-
ments Most Valuable Player after a couple of
masterful performances on the mound. Jeremy
Villar wasnt alone. His rotation-mate, Israel
Quintana, continued his tear through the travel
season. Combined, the two hurlers did not give up
a single run during the tournament.
Jeremy can throw three pitches for strikes at
anytime. Its difcult for a kid at that level to have
command of those pitches and he seems to have
that, David Villar said. Israel is just a special,
special talent. Theres not a whole lot to him. He
can just throw the ball harder than anyone else.
Kids at this level, if theyre 60-65 miles per hour,
thats pretty good. Hes easily in the 70 miles per
hour range which is very impressive for a kid
at that level.
The entire San Mateo pitching staff posted three
shutouts in ve games. The Nationals lone loss
came in Game 3 of the tournament, but only after
they had clinched the knock-out stages top seed.
And no surprise, it was the pitching and defense
that were key.
Its a tough sell especially to some of the
parents, David Vilar said of his pitching-and-
defense-rst philosophy to winning. They love to
see them hit. But we have been successful. Field
time around San Mateo is very, very difcult so
when we use the eld time, I like to use it on our
defense and our pitching. And there are batting
cages to be used. In our practices, we very rarely
use them ever for batting practice.
[But] thats what we preach, he said. We
want our guys to take those fundamentals into the
high school level and thats the ultimate goal we,
as coaches, want to make sure theyre prepared for
high school. We see them and thats what makes
us the most proud, to see the values we instilled in
them.
San Mateo posted back to back goose eggs to
begin the tournament. Then after a loss to
Sonoma, they won its seminal 9-1 before cruis-
ing in the championship game 6-0 over the
Belmont Blasters.
Theyre always great competition, David
Villar said. They have some fantastic pitchers of
their own. Its just a different game than travel ball,
Theyre very good. There seems to be a friendly
rivalry with us.
Villar said that the Nationals are hitting their
stride offensively, too. Quintana had a huge week-
end for San Mateo, smacking two home runs in
the tournament.
The Nationals got key contributions from play-
ers like Benjamin Kurr (who is fresh off his MVP
award at the Summer Heat tournament), Sean
Morgan and Matthew Johnson, who had a big
two-out base hit in the championship game that
broke things open for his team.
You love to have other contributors, which is
great, David Villar said. Thats what a team is all
about having multiple people contribute.
Jackson Skidmore and Christopher Swartz led
the team defensively.
Hes probably our best defensive player,
David Villar said of Skidmore, his third baseman.
Peninsula Nationals win Labor Day tourney
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Its not every day that a young
gymnast gets to share the same oor
with Olympic gold medalists.
So, as far as young Madeline
Skowronek is concerned, Saturday
will be the greatest day of her
career.
I feel lucky that I got picked to
be in this, Skowronek said, and I
hope we get to meet them.
Skowronek is one of eight young
gymnasts from Peninsula
Gymnastics in San Mateo ages 8 to
15 who will participate in the open-
ing routine of the Kelloggs Tour of
Champions a 40-city showcase
of the best the U.S. has to offer. The
Peninsula representatives have been
hard at work for the last 10 days
learning the choreography.
Skowronek will be joined by
Morgan Chall, Molly Zwiebach,
Emma Scott, Mia Saiki, Isabella
Love, Grace Hedrick and Kendra
Bratt.
Its an honor to represent our
family at Peninsula and were excit-
ed to go in front of thousands of
people at HP Pavilion and stand on
the oor that Nastia Liukin and
Gabby Douglas stand on, said
Chall, the eldest of the bunch and a
student at Aragon High.
Peninsula Gymnastics is one of
34 Bay Area gyms participating in
the opening ceremony that will kick
off the Kelloggs Tour at the HP
Pavilion in San Jose. But the little
gym off of 17th Avenue is the only
San Mateo County representative.
Its something of which theyre
quite proud.

that he has creates a lot of problems, Smith
said. I think it gives them a lot to think
about.
And while Packers fans surely havent for-
gotten Moss heyday with the Minnesota
Vikings including his notorious fake-
mooning episode at Lambeau Field
McCarthy is more concerned about what
Moss can do now.
I really havent seen him this preseason so
I dont have a strong opinion on where he is
today, McCarthy said. Hes a unique talent
and you denitely have to be aware when hes
on the eld.
While Smith was best known for avoiding
mistakes last season he threw only ve
interceptions in 445 attempts hes talking
about the possibility that the offense could
take a step forward this season.
We just have so many weapons, Smith
said. So much of this game comes down to
matchups sometimes. We have a lot of guys
that can do a lot of unique things. I think thats
a good problem to have. The more matchup
problems you can create the better.
Smith and Rodgers are forever linked by the
2005 NFL draft; the 49ers took Smith with the
rst overall pick, while Rodgers fell to the
Packers at No. 24. That hasnt stopped the two
from becoming friends off the eld.
And Rodgers said it would be dangerous to
discount Smiths potential to make big plays.
Hes a great guy, and a guy whos playing
at a high level, Rodgers said. To have that
many pass attempts like he did last year, and
then to take care of the football the way he
did, didnt get enough credit for the job that he
did. Thats very difcult to do. And they gave
him some weapons this year, and hes going to
be a big-time quarterback.
But despite their high-profile additions,
Packers defensive lineman Ryan Pickett
expects the 49ers to remain a run-rst offense.
Theyre kind of old-school football,
Pickett said. It is kind of rare. Its not normal
to face a team like this. You may face one or
two teams like this the whole year. And they
do it (well).

On top of their offensive struggles, Menlo
struggled from the circle last season. Their team
earned run average was 6.01. So Vlahos
acknowledged the rebuilding task wont be easy.
That may not be realistic, Vlahos said when
asked if the Oaks can expect immediate success.
I told the kids that competitively [it] absolutely
needs to be this year that may not be winning
all our games but letting the teams know were
here to play, were here to ght. Vlahos per-
sonal goal is to have the Oaks ranked in the top
25 nationally in four years time.
Vlahos has proven her ability to produce
championship caliber ball clubs. Equally as
impressive has been her capacity to develop
character, strive for academic success and pro-
mote outstanding morals throughout the course
of competition.
While at SCAD, Vlahos was an NAIA
Champions of Character Coach every year, in
addition to playing a signicant role in develop-
ing seven Daktronics NAIA scholar-athletes.

the Colts this year.
There is no substitute for winning. When you
learn to win as a team and as an individual, to be
around good players and play with good players,
really just improves your game, Velasquez said.
Theres a little competition in practice. Theyre
competing for the top spot on our team. Its friend-
ly competition. They really want each other to do
well. Thats so impressive to see. Theres no
jealously. Theyre really pulling for each other.

NEW ORLEANS The suspensions of
Jonathan Vilma and three other players in the
NFLs bounty investigation were lifted Friday
by a three-member appeals panel and the
league reinstated those players a few minutes
later.
While the ruling allows Saints linebacker
Vilma, banned for the 2012 season, Saints
defensive end Will Smith, Cleveland line-
backer Scott Fujita and free agent defensive
lineman Anthony Hargrove to play immediate-
ly, it does not permanently void their suspen-
sions.
Still, the ruling comes just two days before
the rst full slate of NFL games this season
and is a setback for Commissioner Roger
Goodell and the league.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Goodell
would make an expedited determination of
the discipline imposed for violating the
leagues bounty rule.
Until that determination is made, the four
players are reinstated and eligible to play start-
ing this weekend, Aiello said.
Vilma tweeted: Victory is mine!!!! -stewie
grifn
Added Fujita: Im overwhelmed with all
the support. Thank you so much everyone.
Cant tell you how much it means to me.
The ruling does not affect New Orleans
coach Sean Payton, suspended for the season,
interim coach Joe Vitt (six games) or general
manager Mickey Loomis (six games).
While the panel did not address the merits of
the NFLs bounty investigation, it said Goodell
overstepped his authority in hearing the play-
ers appeals of their punishment for their roles
in the Saints bounty program that paid cash
bonuses for hits that injured opponents.
The panels decision states that Special
Master Stephen Burbank, not Goodell, should
discipline players for receiving money from a
pool that paid for big plays. Goodells role, the
panel said, should be limited to whether he can
prove the players intended to injure opponents,
which would fall in the category of conduct
detrimental to the game. Players and coaches
implicated in the bounty pool have testied
under oath in a related federal court case they
never intended to injure opposing players.
Whether the commissioner tries to read-
dress the situation or not is his call, said Peter
Ginsberg, Vilmas attorney. We are certainly
hoping the appeals board has made it clear the
commissioner tried to grab jurisdiction and
impose penalties over an area he does not have
oversight. ... The factual record in the court
makes it clear he has acted in a biased and
inappropriate manner.

Liukin and her fellow 2008 Olympic team sil-

Sacramone, in headlining the all-star cast for
the Kelloggs Tour of Gymnastics Champions.
The Kelloggs Tour kicks off in the same
venue that saw 10 gymnasts live out their
Olympic dreams during the team trials early
in the summer. The Olympic team trials drew
impressive attendance numbers including an
estimated 17,526 fans during the nal day of
the competition. The gymnastics showcase
debuts Saturday in San Jose and will travel
across the country, including Las Vegas,
Dallas, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Louisville
and Brooklyn.
I think its going to be pretty exciting,
Chall said. The dance is simple. As long as
were all on the same beat, itll look cool.
2012 Olympians currently scheduled to par-
ticipate in the Kelloggs Tour are: Jake Dalton,
Douglas, the Olympic all-around and team
gold medalist, Jonathan Horton, McKayla

harassed San Mateo quarterback Taylor Sanft
all night, recording a sack, nearly taking the
ball out of Sanfts hands on a handoff and then
chasing a receiver downeld to assist on a
tackle.
Hes a special player, Sell said.
While the nal score made the game look
lopsided, San Mateo coach Jeff Scheller could
not have been happier with his teams per-
formance. Take away Elzies two returns and
the score would have been a lot more
respectable.
I thought it was be a running clock,
Scheller said, in reference to a rule that states
when one team is up by 35 points or more, the
referees dont stop the clock.
I was proud of [my team], Scheller con-
tinued. We can really build on this.
San Mateo showed it would not go down
without a ght. After Elzies 87-yard return to
open the game, the Bearcats, starting on their
own 20, marched 80 yards on 13 plays, cap-
ping it with a 6-yard touchdown run by soph-
omore Line Latu. The Bearcats missed the
extra point and trailed 7-6 with 6:06 to play in
the rst quarter.
After a Patrick Pauni 2-yard scoring run
gave Aragon a 14-6 lead, San Mateo got a
sack from Juan Garcia, which forced a fumble
that was recovered by Melvin Brown at the
Aragon 23. Although the ensuing drive stalled
at the Dons 4, Larry Campbell kicked a 21-
yard eld goal, cutting Aragons lead to 14-9
with 5:18 left in the half.
The Dons, however, scored two more
touchdowns before halftime to all but put the
game away.
The Bearcats, however, had some bright
spots. They appear to have another weapon in
Latu to join Campbell and Sanft to give them
one of the better aerial attacks in the PALs
Lake Division. Latu caught 10 passes for 116
yards and a touchdown and also rushed for 60
yards and another score on 21 carries.
The family tree helps, Scheller said. Latu
is the younger brother of former San Mateo
standouts Patrick and Michael Latu. His dad
keeps telling me he could be the best of the
them all.
Sanft showed a nice touch in the pocket as
he completed 18 of 34 passes for 201 yards.
The Bearcats hurt Aragon a number of times
on screen passes, but they also took their shots
downeld, the longest being a 26-yard com-
pletion to Jason Gonzalez.
It was a much improved performance from
San Mateo after scoring just six points in a
14-6 loss to Gunn the previous week.
We challenged (Aragon), Scheller said.
Said Sell: San Mateo played tough. They
played with a lot of heart.
In the end, however, the Bearcats could not
keep up with Aragons athleticism and speed.
Those guys are dynamite, Scheller said of
Elzie, Jackson and Jordan Crisologo, who
rushed for 57 yards on nine carries.
DONS
Theyre well coached and theyre well condi-
tioned. Theyre going to come out and theyre
going to execute what it is they do. They came
out and put it on us. It was our job to stop
them and we didnt do a good job of that. But
were going to go back tomorrow, were going
to look at lm and see how were going to get
better throughout the course of the year.
As lopsided as the scoreboard was, the stat
sheet was just as ugly for Woodside.
Burlingame outgained their Peninsula
Athletic League rival 384 to 95 the
Panthers gained 232 of those yards on the
ground.
We were just a lot more motivated and we
just wanted it a lot more, said Burlingame
quarterback Keven Navas, who was a perfect
6 for 6 with a touchdown. That was just pret-
ty much the Wing-T good fake, good
blocks and its all good.
The Panthers came out hard from the open-
ing whistle and there was very little the
Wildcats could do to stop them. It took
Burlingame six offensive plays to cover 45
yards and take a 6-0 lead on a Cameron Webb
5-yard touchdown run with 7:29 left in the
rst quarter.
Less than three minutes later, following the
rst of four Burlingame interceptions, Joe
Mahe found the way to the end zone over right
tackle to make it 13-0.
We have some dynamic running backs,
Philipopoulos said. We tried to be a little
more balanced in the beginning of the game,
mix some passes in to get the 9, 10 guys out
of the box and we hit some early and got on a
roll. We had some great momentum.
That balanced showed on Burlingames
ensuing drive when Navas connected on pair
of throws to set up another Mahe touchdown,
this one from three yards out to make it 19-0
with 58 seconds still left in the rst quarter.
Everything you come out here and do is a
test, Bowie said. Have you done enough in
the week to prepare? Have you done enough
in the week to bounce back? Today was just a
matter of coming up and being physical.
Against a team like Burlingame, its tough.
And we werent ready to do that.
After a quarter of play, the yardage battle
read: Burlingame 141, Woodside 11.
And Burlingame did not let up. Eight plays
into their second quarter of offense, Navas
rolled to his right and found Manase Palu
from 15 yards away all alone in the middle of
the end zone for another Panther touchdown.
The drive covered 61 yards.
Woodside did their best to bounce back.
They nally got some momentum going with
a 14-play, 59-yard drive that resulted in a 4-
yard touchdown courtesy of John Bueno.
But with 1:53 left on the clock, Burlingame
pulled off the play of the game.
After getting the ball on the 20 and
Woodside stufng them for negative yardage,
Burlingame faced a 3rd-and-12 after a
Wildcat timeout. On the following snap,
Burlingame caught Woodside getting greedy
with the safeties biting and Palu connecting
with Liam Martinez on the halfback pass that
went for 80 yards and a touchdown.
You can slowly feel the momentum shift-
ed, Philipopoulos said of the play. You
could sense a slight change. And I think it was
just the right call at the right time. It was a
great pass and a great catch and great execu-
tion by the kids.
This year, as soon as we get momentum,
bad things kind of happen, Bowie said. The
thing were trying to teach the kids is to be
resilient when bad things do happen. It was a
great call, great call. We jumped it and came
around late. We have to do a better job of
being prepared for those types of things.
The score was 32-6 at halftime and it got
worse a possession into the second half when
Mahe found the end zone for a third time
this one from 16 yards out over the left side.
Andrew Kennedy had a pair of interceptions
in the game. The latter set up Burlingames
nal touchdown a 27-yard run by Robby
Baumgarten to seal the deal for the Panthers.
Mahe nished the game with 88 yards rush-
ing on 14 carries and three touchdown. Palu
went for 36 yards on the ground, 51 yards
receiving and 80 yards passing.
PANTHERS
Since Scutaro was acquired from the
Colorado Rockies on July 27, he is batting
.331 (53 for 160) with 26 RBIs.
Beckett, facing the Giants for the first
time since 2005 while with the Marlins,
outlasted Lincecum in the right-handers
third start since being acquired from the
Red Sox on Aug. 25.
He was in control until the seventh. Last
time out, Beckett had matched his season
high with nine strikeouts against Arizona,
snapping a three-start skid and seven-start
winless stretch in which he was 0-5.
The Dodgers failed to capitalize in the top
of the seventh. Mark Ellis hit a leadoff single
and Adrian Gonzalez walked one out later to
chase Lincecum, who walked a career-high
seven and missed a chance to win back-to-
back starts for just the third time this year.

STANFORD David Shaw had
to wait eight games last year before
seeing his Stanford team truly test-
ed, beating Southern California in a
triple-overtime thriller.
Not this year.
Maybe never this year.
After a close 20-17 win over San
Jose State in the season opener sent
them tumbling four spots in the AP
poll, the No. 25 Cardinal (1-0) will
learn more about whether that was a
uke or a sign of things to come
without Andrew Luck this season
when they host a stronger Duke (1-
0) team Saturday night.
Its not like they played terribly,
but they didnt play up to our stan-
dard, Shaw said. You play like
that for a length of time youre
going to get beat.
Stanford won 41-14 at Duke last
season behind Lucks second-half
surge, and the Blue Devils havent
beaten a ranked opponent on the
road since 1971, which just so hap-
pened to come at Stanford. As the
rst week showed, however, times
might be changing this season for
both of these historically academic
universities.
Duke lost 23-21 to Football
Championship Subdivision school
Richmond in last seasons debut.
This year, they rolled to a 46-26
romp over Florida International,
which has gone to a bowl game the
last two seasons.
From one year to the next, Duke
coach David Cutcliffe said, its like
daylight and dark.
At least so far, maybe nowhere
more than on The Farm.
The Cardinal not only lost Luck,
the NFLs No. 1 overall pick to the
Indianapolis Colts, they had three
others drafted in the top 42 picks
right guard David DeCastro, tight
end Coby Fleener and left tackle
Jonathan Martin plus starting
wide receivers Chris Owusu and
Griff Whalen and starting safeties
Delano Howell and Michael
Thomas, among others.
Ten true freshmen played and 17
total made their collegiate debut
again San Jose State.
Stanford still returned so many
key contributors notably back-to-
back 1,000-yard rusher Stepfan
Taylor and a defensive front seven
that could have multiple NFL draft
picks to back new quarterback
Josh Nunes that the program gured
to stay quite strong, and it still
might. Middle linebacker and leader
Shayne Skov also returns this week
after he tore ligaments in his left
knee in the third game at Arizona
and was sidelined for the rest of last
season. He served a one-game sus-
pension in last weeks opener for a
DUI arrest.
All the offensive line gaffs, a
dropped deep pass by Ty
Montgomery and little pressure on
the opposing quarterback against
San Jose State a team the
Cardinal routed 57-3 last year
still didnt offer much hope for sta-
bility, especially with a home
matchup against No. 2 USC loom-
ing next week.

A
mongst notable titles like Jane
Austens Pride and Prejudice and
Tobias Wolffs This Boys Life,
this summer I was assigned to read the book
10 Steps to Repair
American Democracy by
Steven Hill. The steps
were along the lines of
direct election of the
president, reform the
Supreme Court and
minimize moneys role
in campaigns. But when
discussing the reading in
my U.S. government class, a larger problem
than any of those became clear.
Every student in my government class had
to take a survey gauging the general knowl-
edge of our countrys political system and
current events, ranging from a local to federal
level. Looking around the room before the
survey, I wouldve guessed that my peers in
the class were some of the most politically
aware students in the school, but the results
of the survey would say otherwise. More than
two thirds of my class could not name any
one of their representatives in the U.S. House
of Representatives or the U.S. Senate and,
while this is probably consistent with the
average Americans knowledge, it does seem
as though theres at least some disconnect
between teenagers (or maybe even adults too)
and local government. While two thirds of
the class also expressed dissatisfaction with
the way democracy works in the United
States, it seems counterintuitive that few
knew the names of the very representatives
who are relatively visible and accessible.
Even those who expressed extreme dissatis-
faction had never contacted a representative,
consistently participated in a boycott or
joined a form of protest.
The survey results left me wondering
whether or not there truly is a disconnect
between the average American citizen and
solid political knowledge, or if being a 17- or
18-year-old in high school just isnt the time
when people become politically aware.
However, if opinionated teenagers arent the
ones to take an interest in as controversial of
a subject as politics, Im not sure when else
that curiosity would be sparked.
My dad often recalls burning his draft card
during the Vietnam War during his high
school years and had countless classmates
who participated in the protests at the time.
Perhaps our version of political activism is
instead channeled in posting about it on
Facebook or sending out a controversial
Tweet on a hot topic issue. This watered-

Papo & Yo
Video game tells disturbing tale of abuse
By Lou Kesten
Big-budget video games are becoming more and more like
Hollywood blockbusters plenty of spectacle, but not much
room for small, personal stories. Independent game design-
ers, like indie lmmakers, are trying to ll the gap.
Papo & Yo (Minority Media, for the PlayStation 3, $15)
takes place in an unspecied South American slum, a setting
we gamers usually see only as the backdrop for a crime
drama like Max Payne 3 or the guerrilla ghting of the
Call of Duty series. This barrio, however, is home to a boy
named Quico, who discovers ways to transform his bleak
environment into something magical. Grafti turn into key-
holes that unlock secret portals; shacks can be piled atop one
another to form bridges.
Quico is accompanied by a lumbering pink beast he calls Monster.
The creature is initially helpful: The boy can coax him into holding
down pressure plates, or bounce off his belly to reach rooftops.
But Monster loves to eat frogs, and if he gets one in his jaws,
watch out. They turn the big lug into a furious brute, and if Quico
cannot scramble away quickly enough, the kid takes most of the
damage. A piece of fruit is usually enough to calm Monster down,
but the rampages are terrifying. Monster, it turns out, is a metaphor
for the alcoholic, abusive father of Vander Caballero, the lead
designer of Papo & Yo. As Monsters rages become more fre-
quent and more violent, Quico has to make a decision one that
will resonate with anyone who has ever lived with an addict.
As a game, Papo & Yo isnt entirely satisfying. Its puzzles are
generally obvious and its mechanics are a little rough around the
edges. But it explores a distinctive world, and gracefully tackles a
disturbing subject. It will linger in players minds long after
theyve forgotten about more slickly produced games. Three stars
out of four.
***
Another indie auteur whos making waves is animator and self-
taught programmer Dean Dodrill. His Dust: An Elysian Tail
(Humble Hearts, for the Xbox 360, $15) isnt a personal tale like
Papo & Yo; instead, its a loving tribute to some of Dodrills
favorite things, including Walt Disney, Super Metroid and
Ninja Gaiden. Dust is a foxlike critter with a bad case of
amnesia. With the help of a talking sword and a ying rodent
named Fidget, he begins to remember his role in a brutal civil
war and, when he sees the damage done, tries to stop it.
Dusts odyssey takes him through a series of two-dimension-
al landscapes that evoke the great Disney movies; the deer and

bunnies frolicking in one forest, for example, are reminders of
Bambi. There are thousands of monsters to slay, but a lively
combat system that lets you chain together hundreds of attacks
prevents the ghting from ever getting dull.
Theres also a sprawling world map to explore, plenty of
hidden treasure and some basic role-playing elements. For an
indie game, Dust tries to squeeze in a lot and, fortunate-
ly, most of it works. Three stars.
GAMES
down version of activism for this generation can be largely
attributed to increased access to the Internet, but the way pol-
itics in America is currently presented in the media (ridden
with partisan divides, just out of a economic crisis, etc.)
makes the government seem too messy to x.
While I dont have nearly as many ideas as Hill does when
it comes to dealing with political dissatisfaction and discon-
nect, I do have one. 10 Steps To Repair American
Democracy, while an ambitious title for a work, was both a
practical and motivating read. I didnt agree with all of Hills
ideas for change nor do I think that many were completely
realistic, but reading it made me interested in and aware of
whats going on in our country politically whether on a
local or national level. Hill includes practical actions one can
take to achieve each step at the end of every chapter (most of
which include talking to ones local government representa-
tive) that are both feasible and have the potential to be pro-
ductive. For this reason, the idea of practical and applicable
reading in schools is an exciting one. Throwing in a book
like 10 Steps alongside classic reads like Oliver Twist or
The Odyssey could help motivate students to learn more
about what they can do to help make real change instead of
just inactively groaning about the problems we hear of in
90-second sound bites.

let alone inspire condence that the
economy is getting better. Even the good
news the unemployment rate dropped
from 8.3 percent to 8.1 percent result-
ed from many job-hunters just giving up.
Were going in the wrong direction,
Romney declared, a view echoed by a
majority of Americans still reeling from
a massive recession.
Obama put the emphasis on a trend
showing employers have added jobs for
30 months in a row now. He did so with
a nod to public frustration.
We know its not good enough,
Obama said, dealing with the downbeat
news mere hours after his confetti-ying
Democratic National Convention. We
need to create more jobs, faster.
With 60 frenetic days left until the
election, the eco-
nomic report was not
grim enough to alter
the political narrative
of a consistently
tight race. Yet the
attention it com-
manded eroded any
hope of a post-con-
vention boost for
Obama.
Instead, it under-
lined his point that economic recovery
will not be quick or easy. No president
has won re-election with unemployment
over 8 percent since Franklin D.
Roosevelt, and Obama has embraced
that Great Depression comparison, hop-
ing to show why he and the nation need
more time.
Their conventions behind them and
their debates just ahead, Obama and
Romney sprinted into the next phase of
campaign, targeting eight or so toss-up
states. The two men headed the same
way Friday, appear-
ing in Iowa and New
Hampshire, two
states with small but
potentially decisive
electoral prizes.
The economy has
added just 139,000
jobs a month this
year, a slower pace
than last year. It
takes roughly
200,000 jobs a month to shrink unem-
ployment. In perspective, the economy
was bleeding hundreds of thousands of
jobs when Obama took ofce, but that
does not comfort the jobless today.
The new results only sharpened the
competing and dening storylines of the
election. Romney says the poor pace of
job growth demands that Obama be
thrown out of ofce, while the incum-
bent implores voters to compare the can-
didates economic visions and see why
only his would help the middle class.
ELECTION
description echoed by many others.
The economy remains hobbled in the
aftermath of the deepest recession since
the 1930s and simply isnt expanding
fast enough to spark more hiring.
Consumers, whose spending accounts
for more than two-thirds of economic
activity, have been whittling down debts
and spending cautiously. The govern-
ment reported last week that economic
growth clocked a disappointing 1.7 per-
cent annual pace in the April-June quar-
ter.
The economy is expected to grow at
an annual rate of around 2 percent for
the rest of the year, consistent with only
90,000 new jobs a month.
The disappointing numbers are a blow
to President Barack Obamas re-election
campaign. Unemployment is down from
a peak of 10 percent in October 2009,
but no incumbent president since
Franklin D. Roosevelt has faced re-elec-
tion with unemployment higher than 7.8
percent.
Republican presidential challenger
Mitt Romney declared that the weak
jobs report is devastating news for
American workers and American fami-
lies ... a harsh indictment of the presi-
dents handling of the economy.
Obama said Augusts hiring was not
good enough and its a long tough
journey to recover from the recession
that ofcially ended more than three
years ago.
Despite the bad report, stock prices
rose, most likely on expectations the Fed
will act next week. The Dow Jones
industrial average rose 14.64 points to
13,306.64. The Standard & Poors 500
rose 5.80 to 1,437.92.
The job market got off to a strong start
this year. Employers added an average
226,000 jobs a month from January
through March. But they couldnt sus-
tain that pace, and hiring slowed to a
monthly average of 67,000 from April
through June.
It looked like things got back on track
in July, when the government initially
reported 163,000 new jobs, but the
Labor Department revised that gain
down by 22,000 on Friday.

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
SLEEPING BEAUTIES. People all over
the world spend nearly one-third of their
lives sleeping, employing some type of pil-
low when resting. From ancient periods to
modern times, humans have made rigid pil-
lows from a wide variety of materials,
including stone, clay, wood and bamboo.
Sleeping Beauties: Headrests from the
Fowler Museum at UCLA, on display pre-
security in the International Terminal Main
Hall at San Francisco International Airport,
features African, East Asian and Oceanic
headrests, including Zairian and
Melanesian figurative wood headrests,
Chinese glazed porcelain headrests and
Japanese rattan-woven pillows. Within the
constraints of their size and shape, these
intimate objects reflect the aesthetics of
their respective cultures and function in
symbolic as well as utilitarian ways.
SFO Museum Assistant Curator of
Exhibitions Nicole Mullen said, It was
wonderful to be able to collaborate with the
UCLA Fowler Museum on the Sleeping
Beauties exhibition. Many people are
unaware of the elegant beauty of these util-
itarian items, which often protected elabo-
rate hairstyles or served as status symbols.
Headrests were once a staple of domestic
furniture, not only in many parts of Africa,
but also in Asia and Oceania. Among the
oldest known headrests are those from
ancient Egypt. In life and the afterlife,
ancient Egyptians slept with their heads on
pillows of wood or alabaster. Eight head-
rests were found in the famous Egyptian
pharaoh Tutankhamuns tomb. Although the
earliest known headrests were found in
Egypt, where the dry tomb climate helped
preserve them, the Egyptians were not nec-
essarily the first to have used them on the
African continent where wood headrests
would have rotted or succumbed to termites
in the damper regions south of the Sahara.
In many parts of central, western and south-
ern Africa, headrests were carved by their
owners, while others were exquisitely craft-
ed by professional carvers. These headrests
often supported elaborate coiffures that
were far too complex and time consuming
to restyle on a daily basis. Hair was intri-
cately braided or embellished with clay,
beads and other decorative materials.
Small, wood supports protected these styles
during sleep, helping to preserve a hairstyle
for weeks or even months at a time.
Africans were not the only ones to use
headrests in order to preserve their hair-
styles. During the Edo and Meiji periods
(16031912) in Japan, hundreds of differ-
ent hairstyles existed, especially among
courtesans. A woman placed the support
a soft pillow atop a trapezoidal wood base
under her neck so that the complex hair
form that framed her face would remain
intact. Headrests served other purposes
besides elevating the head and protecting
hairstyles. In Africa and Oceania, headrests
were employed to invite spirits into dreams
and acted as conduits to the ancestors. In
China, they served as funeral offerings. In
fact, so many headrests were discovered in
Chinese burial grounds that scholars once
believed they were used solely for this pur-
pose.
Sleeping Beauties: Headrests from the
Fowler Museum is based upon an exhibi-
tion that originated at The Fowler Museum
on the campus of the University of
California, Los Angeles. The Fowler
Museum explores art and material culture,
primarily from Africa, Asia and the Pacific
and the Americas and seeks to enhance
understanding and appreciation of the
diverse peoples, cultures and religions of
the world through highly contextualized
interpretive exhibitions, publications and
public programming.
SFO Museum, the first of its kind in the
United States and a widely imitated model
for museums operating in public arenas,
features approximately twenty galleries
throughout the airport, displaying a rotating
schedule of art, history, science and cultur-
al exhibitions. Also at the SFO International
Terminal are the San Francisco Airport
Commission Aviation Library and Louis A.
Turpen Aviation Museum, located in an
architectural adaptation of the Airports
1930s passenger waiting room. The
Aviation Museum collection focuses on air
transport with an emphasis on the West
Coast and the Pacific region. Collection
holdings include more than 17,000 artifacts
and 8,000 books in addition to periodicals,
photographs, technical drawings, oral histo-
ries and archival materials. Collection
strengths include the development and
management of San Francisco International
Airport from 1927 to the present, and the
development of domestic and international
airlines operating to and through the West
Coast and throughout the Pacific region.

Eastwood talks about
convention chat with chair
LOS ANGELES Clint Eastwood said the
idea to use an empty seat as a prop at the
Republican National
Convention was a spur-of-
the-moment decision when
someone backstage asked
if he wanted to sit down.
In his first interview
since his Aug. 30 appear-
ance at the convention to
pledge support for GOP
presidential candidate Mitt
Romney, Eastwood told
the Carmel Pine Cone that
his speech was not only unscripted, it was pret-
ty much spontaneous.
There was a stool there, and some fella kept
asking me if I wanted to sit down, Eastwood
told the weekly newspaper in the small
California city where he once was mayor.
When I saw the stool sitting there, it gave me
the idea. Ill just put the stool out there and Ill
talk to Mr. Obama and ask him why he didnt
keep all of the promises he made to every-
body.
Eastwoods peculiar, sometimes rambling
conversation with an imaginary President
Barack Obama in an empty chair set the blo-
gosphere and social media ablaze. Reaction to
his appearance generally has split along party
lines, with Republicans raving about his sting-
ing rebuke of Obama and Democrats ridiculing
him as old, angry and out of touch.

earlier told the court and San Bruno
police. Attorney Gerrick Lew painstak-
ingly revisited every charged incident
and some that arent but Yuka Nagaya
responded to many that she did not recall
specics about the dates or her exact
statements to authorities.
Fridays exchanges mirrored those of
three previous court appearances, made
all the longer due to need for Japanese
translation, and led Judge Lisa Novak to
caution Lew not to drag out the proceed-
ings more than necessary.
In simple terms, Novak said, a lot of
time has been wasted.
But in this hearing to determine if
Yoshiaki Nagaya will stand trial, little
has been simple. One Japanese inter-
preter abruptly resigned the rst day, the
three now taking turns are often correct-
ing previous translations, Yuka Nagaya
was found to be secretly recording her
testimony for a civil personal injury law-
suit and there was concern members of
the consulate were intimidating Yuka
Nagaya which led Novak to exclude the
deputy counsel general from the pro-
ceedings. At the last hearing, Yuka
Nagaya said she was told not to say on
the stand the name of the fellow con-
sulate employee with whom she
believed her husband was having an
affair. On Friday, her translator claried
for Nagaya that the deputy counsel gen-
eral approached her during a recess and
said, How dare you.
Yuka Nagaya is the sole prosecution
witness against her 33-year-old husband
who is charged with 17 counts of domes-
tic violence and assault during the cou-
ples 18-month marriage.
The couple married in April 2010,
shortly before they moved to California
for his job in San Francisco at the con-
sulate, and she gave police photos of
injuries she said he caused from kicks,
punches, scratches and even a laptop hit
over her head. She said between January
2011 and March 31, 2012 he also poured
milk over her head, stomped on her chest
several times so she was unable to move
for hours, struck her so hard an upper
molar later fell from her mouth while
eating and stabbed the webbing of her
hand with a miniature screwdriver.
San Bruno police arrested Nagaya
April 1 after he allegedly threw his wife
from a car in the parking lot of their San
Bruno apartment.
On Friday, Lew continued questioning
Yuka Nagaya about each incident to
point out where her direct testimony
veered from or excluded statements she
made to the San Bruno police and in the
request for a restraining order. In a
videotaped police interview using a
translator, Yuka Nagaya said of a May
2011 incident that they were both physi-
cal with each other after he grabbed her.
They started grabbing each other,
the translator said.
But under questioning by Lew, Yuka
Nagaya said she did not understand what
he meant by mutual ghting.
When asked what sort of injuries she
suffered in a July 9, 2011 altercation,
Yuka Nagaya said ghting was frequent
in that month which led her to think
probably it was [a] scratch.

able, said Bean. There will be a num-
ber of wounded vets, a couple of VA
therapists, people who want to help the
vets and people who want to support the
vets.
All money raised from the benet will
go to the California Veterans
Foundation, Quality of Life Plus and the
new Trail Rides for Heroes program in
San Mateo.
Trail Rides for Heroes
Trail Rides for Heroes is a new project
of the Community Horse Advocacy
Program (CHAPS) that sponsors veter-
ans to go out on trail rides in Wunderlich
Park in Woodside.
Im a passionate equestrian, said
Don Pugh, a disabled Vietnam veteran
and member of CHAPS. This [pro-
gram] gives [vets] the chance to be out in
the woods with a horse.
Pugh described a young female veter-
an who had endured the traumas of war
and was smiling the whole time she rode
a horse. It was the simple gentle walk
of the horse, said Pugh.
CHAPS began its weekly trail rides
with veterans just a few months ago,
after a memorandum of understanding
was signed with the Palo Alto Veterans
Administration Hospital. The Palo Alto
VA refers patients to CHAPS for recre-
ational therapy.
[The program] is for the guys and
gals to enjoy themselves, said Pugh.
Quality of Life Plus
Another beneciary of the Wounded
Warriors Polo Benet is Quality of Life
Plus (QL+), a program that works with
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo engineering
students to create tools for disabled vet-
erans.
We try to put a little plus in their
lives, whether it be recreation, mobility
or employment, said Bill Kuhn, QL+
director of administration.
Cal Poly students are currently work-
ing on helping a veteran who lost both
his legs to play hockey again.
We have developed a prosthetic
hockey skate and prosthetic hockey gear
so that he can play again, said Kuhn.
Finding meaningful employment can
be especially hard for disabled veterans,
and QL+ looks for ways enabled these
veterans to have more job opportunities.
QL+ is working on a machine that can
lift a disabled person into the cab of a
backhoe, for example.
Students also came up with an idea for
a new kind of knife.
Weve got vets who have lost ngers
through explosions, said Kuhn. If
youve lost a nger, you cant order a
steak and cut it yourself.
Polo games and more
Sundays event will include an open-
ing ceremony with veteran color guards,
two polo games, a ladies hat competi-
tion, wine tasting, an antique carriage
riding demonstration and a silent auc-
tion.

miles off the coast from Pillar Point
Harbor in San Mateo County, South San
Francisco police spokesman Sgt. Bruce
McPhillips said.
The operator of the shing vessel noti-
ed the U.S. Coast Guard, and after
police were alerted of the sighting, pho-
tos were sent to the shing vessel that
helped its operator conrm that it was
indeed the stolen yacht, McPhillips said.
Coast Guard duty officer Corinne
Gaines said a C-130 aircraft from the
agency located the vessel and monitored
it from the air until crews could get to
the scene by boat.
KIDNAP
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2012
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Dont bank too heavily
on Dame Fortune to achieve your objectives for you,
no matter how lucky you usually are. In fact, your
best efforts might barely get you by.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You might not be too
good about keeping secrets, so be careful and stay
on your guard. If you accidentally let something slip
out, dont provide any additional information.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Failing to budget your
resources properly could put you in dire trouble later
on. Try to be prudent now, so that you have vital
resources later, when you will really need them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You might spend
more time talking about your intentions than taking
any kind of action. What you say youll do will make
for good listening, but wont produce a thing.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It wouldnt be wise
to take on tasks or assignments that you lack the ex-
pertise or know-how to tackle. If you must try, have
someone competent peering over your shoulders.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Negotiations of
fnancial importance should not be conducted with a
verbal agreement and a handshake. For the sake of
everybody involved, put things in writing.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Your analytical abilities
are usually quite sharp, yet there is a possibility
you might do things in a manner that goes against
your better judgment and does not serve your best
interests.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Unless your mind is
squarely focused on your work, you could make
a serious mistake with something you usually do
automatically. Dont take anything for granted.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You could fall prey to
impulse purchases if youre just browsing through
the stores. Only when you have a defnite item in
mind will you make a good buy.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The perspective from
which you view domestic developments could be
slightly distorted. Unless you concentrate on solving
problems, youre likely to complicate your life even
further.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Generosity may be
more in your mind than in your actions. Remember
that what you offer might be very easy to promise
but diffcult to deliver.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A well-intentioned person
might not have the resources or capabilities to do
what she or he would like to do for you. Its best not
to think of anybody as your ace in the hole.

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.
