With the now-defunct idea of synthetic
turf out of contention, the San Carlos City
Council is ready to sign off on a plan to ren-
ovate Crestview Park that includes aspects
of previous design proposals and manages
to save a beloved redwood tree.
The redwood tree, previously but incor-
rectly connected to a memorial plaque dedi-
cated to Greg Nannarone, is now slated to
remain at the park under the latest plan
known as Concept E coming before the City
Council Monday night. The concept is an
offshoot of several designs and came after
the City Council effectively shelved the
recommendation to use synthetic rather
than natural turf and asked staff to return
with some changes.
The fate of the redwood tree was among
the key considerations of the previous dis-
cussion along with space to accommodate
local star gazers.
Parks and Recreation Director Christine
Boland said the city was pleasantly sur-
prised that design consultant Callendar
Associates was able to keep the tree intact
by modiying the turnaround area for drop-

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
One of two men accused of robbing a 79-
year-old woman living in a Redwood City
pastors home in February pleaded no con-
test to home invasion robbery and using a
gun.
Luis Martinez Trujillo, 22, of Redwood
City, took the plea deal Friday rather than
letting the offer expire and heading to trial
on charges of kidnapping, armed robbery
and elder abuse. He will receive seven years
in prison when sentenced Oct. 9.
Meanwhile, codefendant Jovanni Aguilar
Martinez is still set for trial Sept. 16. He
has pleaded not guilty.
The pair was charged with kidnapping
because they allegedly moved her 25 feet
into a bedroom where she was able to call
her daughter for help. Ateenage parishioner
of a neighboring church was also thought to
be involved but was never charged in the
case.
The incident happened Feb. 7 just before
noon when police responded to the 900
block of 10th Avenue on
the report of a robbery in
progress. The victim told
authorities a female she
recognized from the
church came to her resi-
dence on Feb. 7 and left
after a brief interaction.
Shortly later, two hooded
men armed with a semi-
automatic pistol arrived
and pointed the weapon at her head. Aman
later identified as Martinez gathered up
property in a pillow case and, after approxi-
mately an hour of pointing the weapon at
the woman, moved her 25 feet to a separate
bedroom and closed the door. The woman
called her daughter who contacted police and
Martinez was caught trying to leave.
Ofcers also identied the other two who
were later tracked to Mexicali, Mexico and
arrested.
Trujillo remains in custody in lieu of
$35,000 bail and Martinez is held on
$100,000 bail.

Aterminal cancer patient who reportedly
set a fire in his county hospital room and
threatened a nurse with a knife before a
two-hour standoff with police will stand
trial in November.
Zavtcho Stanonor Stoyanov, 51, is
charged with four felonies including arson.
On Friday, he pleaded not guilty and sched-
uled a Nov. 4 jury trial.
Stoyanov, of Hillsborough, was a patient
at San Mateo Medical Center when he
reportedly began the first floor blaze just
before 11 p.m. After hospital staff extin-
guished the small fire, Stoyanov reported-
ly blocked himself in a hospital room with
a chair and hamper.
When a nurse kicked the
door open, she reported
seeing the bed and floor
on fire and Stoyanov
walking toward her
swinging a knife.
Responding officers
needed nearly two hours
and a Taser to negotiate
and eventually appre-
hend him.
The fire caused the evacuation of 29
rooms and chaos but little other damage to
the hospital.
He returns to court Oct. 15 for a pretrial
conference and remains free from custody.

Pedestrian killed on
Highway 101 identified
A man who was fatally struck
on northbound Highway 101 in
San Mateo late Thursday night
has been identified by the San
Mateo County coroners office as
37-year-old Foster City resident
Lufti Mukhar.
Mukhar was found by CHP offi-
cers who responded at 11:37 p.m.
to a report of a person in the road
on northbound Highway 101 near
state State Route 92.
The officers found a male vic-
tim in the road, later identified as
Mukhar, who was apparently
struck by several vehicles, CHP
officials said.
Traffic was diverted off
Highway 101 to State Route 92
and East Hillsdale Boulevard dur-
ing the investigation into the
death. All lanes of traffic
reopened shortly before 2:10

Police seek publics
help in pigeon drop scam
South San Francisco police are
seeking the publics help to iden-
tify two men suspected of bilking
$3,000 from a 69-year-old man in
what is known as a pigeon drop
scam.
On Aug. 21, the man was
approached on Spruce Avenue by
the suspect who drove up asking
for directions and then claimed he
was from South Africa and distrib-
uting $80,000 to churches as part
of his fathers will. The suspect
asked the man to help him dis-
tribute the money because he was
returning to South Africa. The
suspect also contacted another
man, later identified as an accom-
plice but acting at the time as
though they were not acquainted,
to help distribute the money.
In return, both the accomplice
and victim were told theyd
receive $10,000 but were first
asked to provide the suspect with
$7,000 as a good faith gesture,
according to South San Francisco
police.
The victim withdrew $3,000 in
cash from his savings account
and gave it to the suspect who fur-
ther instructed him to drive
around the Safeway building on El
Camino Real as an additional
sign of trust while he and the
accomplice waited near the
Salvation Army. When the victim
returned, the two men and money
were gone.
The suspect is described as a
black male, 40 to 45 years old,
160 pounds, with a lighter com-
plexion, mustache and wavy
black and gray hair. He wore
khaki pants and a button-up dress
shirt.
The accomplice is described as
a black male, 40 to 45 years old,
200 pounds, dark complexion,
mustache and short curly black
hair. He wore a light green suit.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A yellow fever mosquito which
can carry several viruses included
dengue fever was found at Holy
Cross cemetery in Menlo Park, the
California Department of Public
Health conrmed Friday.
The mosquito, known as Aedes
aegypti, is not native to California
but is common in urban areas of the
southeastern United States. This
type of mosquito was found earlier
this summer in the counties of
Fresno and Madera; no illnesses
associated with this mosquito have
been reported so far.
The San Mateo County Mosquito
and Vector Control District is
working closely with other agen-
cies and plans to expand its sur-
veillance and trapping efforts. The
district also plans to have staff
conduct door-to-door inspections
of home and pass out educational
materials.
San Mateo County Health
System, the California Department
of Public Health, and Santa Clara
County Vector Control District to
evaluate the extent of the infesta-
tion and aggressively target prob-
lem areas to prevent its spread.
Our goal is to quickly eradicate
this mosquito population. said
Robert Gay of the mosquito district
in a prepared statement.
The mosquito species is about 7
inches, black and white and bites
most often during the day. The
mosquito can transmit dengue, yel-
low fever, chikungunya and several
viruses that cause encephalitis.
These viruses are not currently
found in California.
This mosquito was previously
found in San Mateo County in
1979 near San Francisco
International Airport but was suc-
cessfully eradicated.
Public health and mosquito pre-
vention ofcials are asking the
public to control the spread by
eliminating standing water and
reducing the chance of bites.
Recommended precautions include:
Apply insect repellents that
contain DEET, picaridin, oil of
lemon eucalyptus or IR 3535 and
follow label instructions;
Make sure that doors and win-
dows have tight-tting screens to
keep out mosquitoes and repair or
replace screens with tears or holes;
Eliminate standing water and
containers that can hold water from
around the home;
Report neglected swimming
pools to the mosquito district;
Wear long sleeve shirts and
long pants when possible;
Use mosquito netting over
infant carriers, cribs and strollers.
Residents experiencing mosqui-
to bites during the day should
report them to the San Mateo
County Mosquito and Vector
Control District at 344-8592 or the
Santa Clara Vector Control District
at (408) 918-4770.

San Diego mayor agrees to resign
SAN DIEGO Mayor Bob Filner agreed Friday to resign
in return for the citys help defending him against claims he
groped, kissed and made lewd comments
to women, allegations that shook and
embarrassed the city and turned the former
10-term congressman into a national
punch line.
Filner was regretful and deant during a
City Council meeting as he explained the
the toughest decision of my life. He
apologized to his accusers but insisted he
was innocent of sexual harassment and
said he was the victim of a lynch mob.
The city should not have to go
through this, and my own personal failures were responsi-
ble and I apologize to the city, Filner said after the council
voted 7-0 on a deal that ended a political stalemate after 17
women publicly accused him of harassment.
To all the women that I offended, I had no intention to be
offensive, to violate any physical or emotional space, he
said. I was trying to establish personal relationships but
the combination of awkwardness and hubris I think led to
behavior that many found offensive.
The city will pay Filners legal fees in a joint defense of a
lawsuit led by the mayors former communications director
and pay for any settlement costs assessed against the mayor
except for punitive damages, said City Attorney Jan
Goldsmith. The city would also pay up to $98,000 if Filner
wants to hire his own attorney.
Report: State mental hospitals exec investigated
LOS ANGELES An executive hired to overhaul
Californias troubled state mental hospitals is under inves-
tigation for alleged sexual harassment, the Los Angeles
Times reported.
Two subordinates led complaints of sexual harassment
and sexual discrimination against Kathy Gaither last
month, the Times reported Thursday, citing two independent
persons with rsthand knowledge of the matter.
They asked not to be identied because they said they
feared retribution, the Times said.
According to them, Gaither is under investigation by
Shaw Valenza, a Northern California law rm that says it has
conducted probes for state agencies in the past.
Gaither was hired two years ago as chief deputy director of
the Department of State Hospitals. She was placed on paid
administrative leave July 15, shortly after the state Senate
conrmed her permanent appointment.

WASHINGTON Americans cut
back sharply in July on their purchas-
es of new homes, a sign that higher
mortgage rates may slow the housing
recovery.
U.S. sales of newly built homes
dropped 13.4 percent to a seasonally
adjusted annual rate of 394,000, the
Commerce Department said Friday.
Thats the lowest in nine months. And
sales fell from a rate of 455,000 in
June, which was revised down from a
previously reported 497,000.
The housing rebound that began last
year has helped drive economic growth
and create more construction jobs. But
mortgage rates have climbed a full per-
centage point since May. The increase
has begun to steal some momentum
from the market.
Sales of new homes are still up 7 per-
cent in the 12 months ending in July.
Yet the annual pace remains well below
the 700,000 that is consistent with a
healthy market.
Julys drop may mark an uh-oh kind
of moment for the housing recovery,
said Mark Vitner, an economist at
Wells Fargo Securities.
Homebuilder stocks declined sharply
Friday, even as overall market indexes
rose. Shares of Toll Brothers Inc.,
D.R. Horton Inc. and Lennar Corp.
three of the nations largest builders
all fell more than 3 percent in after-
noon trading.
And major homebuilders shares
have been dropping steadily since late
May. The slide began after Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke rst
signaled that the Fed might reduce its
bond purchases later this year. The
bond purchases have helped keep
mortgage rates and other borrowing
costs low.
The average rate on a 30-year mort-
gage reached 4.58 percent this week,
according to Freddie Mac. Thats up
from 3.35 percent in early May and the
highest in two years.
The impact on would-be buyers
nances is signicant.
Take someone who locked in the
early May rate on a $200,000 mort-
gage. They would have a monthly pay-
ment of around $875. But the same
mortgage at last weeks average rate
would cost $1,025 a month.
The difference adds up to $150 more
each month or $54,000 over the
M
ore than 8,300 additional
children from low-income
families around California

school this year after the recent distri-

Jump in mortgage rates hurts sales of new homes

WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama on Friday played down the prospect
of speedy U.S. intervention in Syria,
stressing the difculty of ordering military
action against the Assad government with-
out a strong international coalition and a
legal mandate from the United Nations.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said
Obama has asked the Pentagon to provide
military options in light of reports that the
Syrian government used chemical weapons
against civilians. While Hagel declined to
discuss any specic force movements, U.S.
defense ofcials said the Navy moved a
fourth warship into the region. Each can
launch ballistic missiles.
The Defense Department has a responsi-
bility to provide the president with options
for contingencies, and that requires posi-
tioning our forces, positioning our assets,
to be able to carry out different options
whatever options the president might
choose, Hagel told reporters traveling
with him to Asia.
U.S. Navy ships are capable of a variety
of military action, including launching
Tomahawk cruise missiles, as they did
against Libya in 2011 as part of an interna-
tional action that led to the overthrow of
the Libyan government.
While the Obama administration weighed
military responses to this weeks claims of
a large-scale chemical weapons attack near
Damascus, Obama spoke
as cautiously as ever
about getting involved in
a war that has killed more
than 100,000 people and
now includes Hezbollah
and al-Qaida.
The president made no
mention of the red line
of chemical weapons use
that he marked out for
Syrian President Bashar Assad a year ago
and that U.S. intelligence says has been
breached at least on a small scale several
times since.
If the U.S. goes in and attacks another
country without a U.N. mandate and without
clear evidence that can be presented, then
there are questions in terms of whether
international law supports it do we have
the coalition to make it work? Obama said
Friday. Those are considerations that we
have to take into account.
The reported attack Wednesday, which
killed at least 100 people in a Damascus
suburb, would amount to the most heinous
use of chemical weapons since Saddam
Hussein gassed thousands of Kurds in the
town of Halabja two-and-half decades ago.
Obama conceded in an interview on
CNNs New Day program that the episode
is a big event of grave concern that
requires American attention. He said any
large-scale chemical weapons usage would
affect core national interests of the
United States and its allies. But nothing he
said signaled a shift toward U.S. action.
Obama plays down U.S. intervening in Syria
By Ryan Lucas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIRUT Russia on Friday added its
diplomatic weight to demands for a swift
probe into an alleged chemical weapons
attack that has injected new vigor into calls
for international military action in Syrias
civil war.
The U.S., Britain, France and other coun-
tries have pressed for a team of United
Nations inspectors already in Syria to be
granted immediate access to the sites of
Wednesdays purported gas attack that
activists say killed more than 130 people.
In an attempt to push things along, U.N.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is dispatch-
ing his disarmament chief to Damascus to
press President Bashar Assads regime to
agree to an investigation.
Timing is vital, experts say, because the
more time passes, the harder it is to detect
what chemicals if any were used.
Immediate access also would allow inspec-
tors to collect blood and soil samples them-
selves and safeguard the chain of custody of
and the integrity of the investigation.
But in the chaos and violence of Syrias
civil war, safe passage to the eastern
Damascus suburbs in question would be dif-
cult.
That was made clear on Friday, as govern-
ment artillery on the Qassioun plateau over-
looking Damascus pounded those suburbs in
the heaviest strikes in days. Booms from
the artillery echoed over the city every few
minutes, along with several rounds of rock-
et re that raised ashes of light from the
suburbs. At times, three or four plumes of
smoke could be seen billowing on the hori-
zon.
Syrian opposition gures and activists
have reported death tolls from Wednesdays
attack ranging from 136 to 1,300. If con-
rmed, even the most conservative tally
would make it the deadliest alleged chemical
attack in Syrias civil war. The Assad regime
has denied the allegations, calling them
absolutely baseless and accusing the
opposition of staging the whole affair to
smear the government and provoke outside
intervention.

ABOARD AMILITARYAIRCRAFT OVER
THE PACIFIC The Pentagon is moving
naval forces closer to Syria in preparation
for a possible decision by President Barack
Obama to order military strikes, Defense
Secretary Chuck Hagel suggested on Friday.
Hagel declined to describe any specic
movements of U.S. forces. He said Obama
asked that the Pentagon to prepare military
options for Syria and that some of those
options requires positioning our forces.
U.S. Navy ships are capable of a variety
of military action, including launching
Tomahawk cruise missiles, as they did
against Libya in 2011 as part of an interna-
tional action that led to the overthrow of the
Libyan government.

ident with options for
contingencies, and that
requires positioning our
forces, positioning our
assets, to be able to carry
out different options
whatever options the
president might choose,
Hagel said. He said the
U.S. is coordinating with
the international community to determine
what exactly did happen in the reported
use by the Syrian government of chemical
weapons against civilians earlier this week.
Were still assessing that, he said.
Hagel said a determination on the chemi-
cal attack should be made swiftly because
there may be another attack coming,
although he added that we dont know
whether that will happen.

FORT HOOD, Texas Amilitary jury on
Friday convicted Maj. Nidal Hasan in the
deadly 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood,
making the Army psychiatrist eligible for the
death penalty in the shocking assault against
American troops by one of their own on
home soil.
There was never any doubt that Hasan was
the gunman. He acknowledged to the jury that
he was the one who pulled the trigger on fel-
low soldiers as they prepared to deploy over-
seas to Iraq and Afghanistan. And he barely
defended himself during a three-week trial.
The unanimous decision
on all 13 counts of pre-
meditated murder made
Hasan eligible for execu-
tion in the sentencing
phase that begins
Monday.
This is where members
(of the jury) decide
whether you will live or
whether you will die, said
Col. Tara Osborn, the trial judge.
Hasan, who said he acted to protect Muslim
insurgents abroad from American aggression,
did not react to the verdict, looking straight
at jurors as they announced their ndings.
After the hearing, relatives of the dead and
wounded fought back tears. Some smiled and
warmly patted each others shoulders as they
left court.
Because Hasan never denied his actions,
the court-martial was always less about a
conviction than it was about ensuring he
received a death sentence. From the begin-
ning, the federal government has sought to
execute Hasan, believing that any sentence
short of a lethal injection would deprive the
military and the families of the dead of the
justice they have sought for nearly four
years.
Autumn Manning, whose husband, retired
Staff Sgt. Shawn Manning, was shot six
times during the attack, wept when the ver-
dict was read. She said she had been con-
cerned that some charges might be reduced to
manslaughter, which would have taken a
death sentence off the table.
This is so emotional, she said in a tele-
phone interview from Lacey, Wash., where
she and her husband live. Ive just been cry-
ing since we heard it because it was a relief.
... We just wanted to hear the premeditated.
Hasan, who represented himself after ring
his legal team, was also convicted on 32
counts of attempted premeditated murder. He
carried out the attack in a crowded waiting
room where unarmed troops were making
nal preparations to deploy.
Military jury convicts soldier in Fort Hood attack

Bradley Manning is the rst transgender
military inmate to ask for hormone treat-
ments, ofcials say, a request that could lead
to a legal showdown over how and if
the soldier convicted in the WikiLeaks case
will be allowed to live as a female behind
bars.
Current Pentagon policy dictates that
transgender soldiers are not allowed to serve,
and Manning wont be
discharged until being
released from prison and
all appeals are exhausted.
Furthermore, the military
does not allow soldiers to
undergo hormone treat-
ments while in the all-
male prison at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan.
though this is the rst
time ofcials have heard
of a request for such treatment, said Maria
Tolleson, a spokeswoman with the Army
Medical Command in Arlington, Va.
Were just now dealing with the issue,
she said, adding it would be premature to say
there has been any movement toward offering
the care to all transgender inmates as a result
of Mannings case.
Manning also wont be allowed to dress as
a woman, as wigs and bras are not allowed.
The soldiers gender dysphoria the sense
of being a woman in a mans body coupled
with the military convictions could leave
Manning to face an isolated future, shunned
by fellow inmates and transgender veterans
on the outside who believe the leaks put
Mannings comrades in danger.
It is not known whether Manning could be
transferred to a female prison, though defense
attorney David Coombs has said that was not
the motive behind the Army privates state-
ment Thursday asking to be referred to by
feminine pronouns, signed Chelsea E.
Manning.

Burlingame parking debacle
Editor,
I question what Syed Murtuza was
quoted as saying about parking avail-
ability (Burlingame Streetscape moves
into next phases of project in the Aug.
20 edition of the Daily Journal). I am
not aware of any parking being added
on Primrose. In fact, 43 spaces of
prime parking on Primrose half a block
from Safeway have been taken away,
nine of which are lost on a long-term
basis and 34 of which are gone perma-
nently. That belies his statement that
parking has been added in close proxim-
ity. Those 43 spaces were in use con-
stantly and their loss will be felt by
many. This change was fought bitterly,
but in vain by many of us. It was not
a decision made in the best interest of
Burlingame as a whole but it has been
made and is now being implemented.
The city should acknowledge the fact of
that loss instead of playing a numbers
game that is not based on reality.

Immigrants may get jury duty
Editor,
The Assembly of the state of
California passed AB1401 on a large
party-line vote of 41 to 26 to give non-
citizen immigrants the right to serve as
jurors (Non-citizens could be jurors
under state bill in the Aug.t 23 edition
of the Daily Journal).
This is a dumb, stupid idea designed
exclusively to pander for the support of
various groups.
It undermines the rights of a person
accused of a crime to be judged by his
peers with a basic knowledge of the
U.S. Constitution, our laws and cul-
ture. Our only hope is that Gov. Brown
may veto it.

Letters to the editor
Merced Sun-Star
K
udos are in order for Mark
Cowin, the director of the
California Department of
Water Resources.
For months, Cowin has taken seri-
ously the concerns of farmers and
landowners whose lives and busi-
nesses could be upended by a gargan-
tuan water tunnel project the state
wants to build through the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.
Last week, DWR officials
announced changes intended to
reduce the impact of the project and
the opposition to it.
The alignment of the tunnels
would be shifted away from commu-
nities such as Courtland and Walnut
Grove. Aforebay would be scaled
down in size and be moved away
from the Stone Lakes National
Wildlife Refuge.
DWR also proposes fewer tunnel
muck areas on private lands, with
their locations moved to state-
owned land near Interstate 5.
All that is good, and Cowin and
other state officials deserve credit
for listening to affected residents
and attempting to respond.
That said, DWRs new plan doesnt
fundamentally change the dynamics
of the Bay Delta Conservation Plan.
State and federal officials, pressured
by powerful water contractors south
of the Delta, are still charging for-
ward with a my-way-or-the-high-
way approach to water planning,
saying they will build a tunnel with-
out a vote of lawmakers and over the
objections of most of the Delta and
Northern California.
They still havent provided guar-
antees to north state water users that
their water supplies and ecosystems
wont be harmed by tunnel diver-
sions. And in attempting to solve
one problem, the new DWR tunnel
alignment would create others.
Under the new proposal, the tun-
nels would be realigned to the east,
passing under Staten Island, a vital
habitat for sandhill cranes and other
birds. The island is owned by the
Nature Conservancy and protected by
conservation easements, and some
conservancy members are stunned
that this realignment would even be
considered.
Legal questions abound on whether
the state could bore tunnels under
this land and not violate the ease-
ments. Also important: whether the
state could attempt such a massive
industrial project and have little or
no impact on cranes and other sensi-
tive species.
If state and federal officials hope
to salvage BDCP, they need to come
up with solutions that substantially
reduce the projects impact, as
opposed to simply transferring that
impact elsewhere. While it may be
too late to build any kind of trust
with stakeholders in the Delta and
Northern California, there are steps
they could take to ease the mistrust.
One big step would be to specify,
in greater detail, exactly how this
project would be operated in differ-
ent situations. How much water
would be diverted during different
periods of the year when salmon
are migrating, for instance? How
much would be diverted in dry and
wet years, and those in between?
Only that kind of specificity
along with decisions on how much
water is needed for Delta flows to
help fish will put upstream water
users at ease, or at least alarm them
less. Operational details would also
help settle the ongoing debate about
the costs and benefits of this proj-
ect.
Arespected Berkeley economist
hired by BDCP recently released a
report concluding the tunnels will
pencil out for water contractors that
would pay the $16 billion cost. Yet
as the Legislative Analyst told a
Senate panel Tuesday, the projected
economic benefit of the tunnel proj-
ect is fragile.
Cost overruns on the project could
jack up the price of delivered water.
So could requirements for Delta fish
flows, if the extra water needed for
those flows comes out of current
water exports.
The uncertainties are too great for
BDCP proponents to keep chargi ng
ahead, hoping they will have a per-
mit sometime in the near future.
These questions must be settled, and
until they are, the changes
announced by DWR are simply
adding lipstick to a pig.
Delta tunnel project revision leaves big flaws
The Green
Beret Colonel
I
want to thank all of you who wrote and emailed
me all those uplifting emails after my
Independence Day article. But I need you to under-
stand something. While I did spend 14 years in Asia, I
was not sitting around crying
in my beer.
When I left the States, I flew
to Okinawa, home of 1st
Special Forces Group
(Airborne). My last mission
began there. I commanded six
two-man teams in civilian
clothes along the Thai-
Laotian border. When I
returned six months later, I
informed the group command-
ing officer, Col. Robert
Rheault, that I was leaving the
Army.
It was a difficult decision. Rheault had become a
friend in the 18 months I had been assigned there. The
year before, his daughter Susie, on break from classes
at Princeton, had spent the summer on Okinawa. I
showed Susie around the island and escorted her to the
various social activities. I quickly found out that when
you join the Rheault family for social activities, you
have to be in shape. One weekend it would be scuba
diving; the next it might be biking or hiking. There
was always something going on requiring tons of ener-
gy.
As I mustered out, Rheault was on the way to Vietnam
to take command of the 5th Special Forces Group. By
the time I got out and returned to Okinawa, something
very strange had happened. I was picked up at the air-
port by a friend, still in special forces and headed for
Vietnam. He informed me that Rheault was in jail in
Long Binh, accused of murdering a Vietnamese civil-
ian. My first reaction was that there was no way that
could be true. Unless
At the time, there was a top-secret operation going
on in Vietnam called Phoenix. The project entailed the
planned assassination of civilians. The country was
rife with spies. The CIA would target the civilian and
the special forces would carry out the assassination.
Only this time there was a snafu. The target turned out
to be a double agent.
Col. Rheault had little to do with this. He had arrived
in-country just in time to be briefed on the mission.
But he was the commanding officer and he signed off
on it. There was another problem. Gen. Creighton
Abrams was commander of all U.S. forces in Vietnam.
He was a leg (not airborne qualified) and he hated
special forces. When he heard about the incident he
ordered the arrest of everyone involved. All told, eight
were arrested and taken to Long Binh Jail to await
courts martial.
In the meantime, I got a job as country manager of
Piedmont International, selling mutual funds in, where
else, Vietnam. I arrived in-country while this was
going on. When I tried to see Rheault in Long Binh
Jail, I found out he was no longer there. As soon as
President Richard Nixon found out what had happened,
he hit the roof. I was not privy to the actual conversa-
tion but I heard it went something like this: You
idiots. If anybody finds out we are killing civilians
over there, the sh-- will hit the fan big-time. Release
those men and do it right now.
Back in the United States, the military powers-that-
be knew that all eight Green Berets had only been fol-
lowing orders. They offered Col. Rheault an abject
apology and asked what command he wanted. He said
he wanted to return to Vietnam to the 5th Special
Forces. He was told that was the only command he
couldnt have. So Rheault put in his papers to retire.
The Armed Forces lost a great warrior through no fault
of his own.
On Nov. 14, 1969, Rheault appeared on the cover of
Life magazine. Frank McCulloch wrote a good arti-
cle, The Green Beret Colonel, vindicating him. I
stayed in Vietnam for 10 months and departed in 1970.
I stopped by Hong Kong for a few years then headed for
the Philippines. I didnt know it yet but a revolution
was on the horizon and a jail cell awaited me.

Have you ever
attended a funeral
or memorial service
and felt ill-at-ease,
uncomfortable or
awkward when
talking to the family
of the deceased? Have you ever stumbled
through your words and condolences
because you just didnt know what to say or
how to say it? Have you even decided to not
approach the family for fear of saying the
wrong thing or making a fool of yourself? If
so you are not alone. Many people in this
situation want to provide some kind of
comfort to the immediate family, but just
dont have the verbal tools to do so in an
assuring manner.
Learning Funeral Etiquette can be
useful. Using the right words at the right
time is an appropriate way to show that you
care, and in situations like this can be of
great help when provided correctly.
Standard condolences such as I am sorry
for your loss have become routine and
generic. A personalized phrase can be
welcomed such as John touched many
lives or I will miss John. DO NOT ask
the cause of death, offer advice or make
comments that would diminish the
importance of the loss such as Oh, youre
young and can marry again.
Other ways to demonstrate your support
include: 1. Listening. The family may feel
the need to express their anxiety, and giving
them that opportunity can be therapeutic; 2.
An embrace. This can show that you care
without the need for words; 3. Offering your
services. This shows the family that you are
willing to give extra time for them: Please
let me know if there is anything I can do to
help (be prepared to act if needed).
Even if you dont feel confident in
approaching the family there are other ways
to show that you care: 1. Attending the
funeral and signing the Memorial Book will
show the family that you took the time to be
there in support; 2. Dressing appropriately
for the funeral will demonstrate your efforts
to prepare for this special occasion (dark
colors are no longer a requisite for funerals,
but dressing in a coat, tie, dress or other
attire that youd wear to any special event
are considered a way of showing you care);
3. In certain cases friends are invited to
stand up and offer BRIEF personal feelings.
Prior to the funeral write a few key notes
and reflections which will help you organize
your thoughts. Even if there is no
opportunity to speak before a group you
may have a chance to offer your thoughts to
the family following the ceremony; 4. A
personalized card or note will help you
arrange your words better and can be kept
by the family. If you dont have their
mailing address you can send your envelope
to the funeral home and they will forward it
to the next of kin; 5. Providing flowers is a
long time tradition, or making a charitable
donation in the deceaseds memory will give
the family a strong sense of your regards; 6.
If appropriate a brief phone call can show
your immediate concern, but generally this
should be avoided to give the family the
privacy they may need.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK A big jump in
Microsoft helped lift the Dow Jones
industrial average Friday.
Microsoft had its biggest gain in
four years after CEO Steve Ballmer
said he will retire. Ballmer took the
helm of the software company from
founder Bill Gates in 2000. The com-
pany has struggled to adapt as con-
sumers switch from desktop comput-
ing to mobile devices
The giant software company is part
of the 30-member Dow and its surge
contributed more than a third of the
indexs advance.
The Dow closed up 46.77 points, or
0.3 percent, at 15,010.51. The index
closed down 0.5 percent for the week
and is 3.2 percent lower for the
month.
Stocks have sagged in August on
concerns that the Federal Reserve will
start to pull back on its economic
stimulus. The Fed has been buying
$85 billion in bonds every month to
hold down long-term interest rates and
encourage lending.
Minutes from the Feds July meeting
released on Wednesday failed to give
investors any clear indication of when
the central bank will start slowing its
bond purchases.
Some investors are using the sum-
mer slump as an opportunity to buy
stocks at less expensive prices, said
Joe Bell, a senior equity analyst at
Schaeffers Investment Research.
Stocks climbed to record highs at the
start of the month.
Stocks are getting more attention
in the mainstream, said Bell. People
are buying this pullback right now.
The stock market stumbled at mid-
morning after the government report-
ed a plunge in new home sales, then
drifted steadily higher in the after-
noon. Trading volume was very light.
Major homebuilders fell after the
Commerce Department said Americans
cut back sharply on buying homes last
month as mortgage rates rose. Sales of
newly built homes fell at an annual
rate of 13.4 percent in July. D.R.
Horton lost 55 cents, or 3 percent, to
$18.73 and Lennar fell 96 cents, also
3 percent, to $32.60.
A boom in housing has supported
this years rally in stocks. Now, the
drop in sales has traders worried that
the U.S. housing recovery could falter
because of higher mortgage rates.
Traders reacted to the drop in home
sales by buying bonds and gold,
investments that become more attrac-
tive when the economy appears weak-
er.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note declined to 2.82 percent from
2.89 percent late Thursday. The price
of gold rose $25, or 1.8 percent, to
$1,395 an ounce, the highest in two
months.
The stock market may become more
volatile in the coming weeks as
traders try to anticipate the timing of
the Feds move, said Randy Frederick,
managing director of active trading
and derivatives at the Schwab Center
for Financial Research.
Investors will also start to follow
the debt ceiling debate in Washington
more closely, he said. The U.S. stock
market plunged in the summer of 2011
when policy makers wrangled over
lifting the borrowing limit and pushed
the country closer to default.
The softening we are seeing in the
market, and the rise in interest rates,
these are all in anticipation of these
issues, Frederick said. Overall, I
like the outlook for the rest of the
year, I just dont like the next four to
six weeks.
The Standard and Poors 500 index
edged up 6.54 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 1,663.50.
Stock market closes higher; Microsoft surges

WASHINGTON The latest high-tech
disruption in the nancial markets increases
the pressure on Nasdaq and other electronic
exchanges to take steps to avoid future
breakdowns and manage them better if they
do occur.
The three-hour trading outage on the
Nasdaq stock exchange Thursday also can be
expected to trigger new rounds of regulatory
scrutiny on computer-driven trading.
Investors shaky condence in the markets
also took another hit.
The exchange returned to a normal trading
day Friday, with the Nasdaq composite ris-
ing 19 points, or 0.5 percent, to 3,657.
Facebook closes
above $40 for first time
NEW YORK Facebooks stock closed
above $40 for the rst time Friday.
The social networks shares have gained
53 percent since July 24, when it reported
strong growth in mobile ad revenue and a
solid prot during its second quarter.
Facebook announced a technology part-
nership Wednesday that aims to expand
Internet access to the 5 billion people not
currently connected. That could create more
potential Facebook users.
Facebook Inc. went public in May 2012 at
$38 per share. There were lofty expecta-
tions, but the companys initial public
offering was marred by trading glitches.
Worries about growth prospects then
weighed on shares.

OAKLAND Jay Cutler and the Chicago
Bears look ready to start the season. The
Oakland Raiders look ready for a quarterback
controversy.
Cutler led ve rst-half scoring drives,
Matt Forte gained 109 yards from scrimmage
and the Bears beat the Raiders 34-26 on
Friday night in the nal big dress rehearsal
for the regular season.
Cutler and Forte connected on a 32-yard
touchdown pass, former Raiders running
back Michael Bush added a pair of touch-
down runs and Alshon Jeffery caught seven
passes for 77 yards as the Bears (2-1) broke
out to a 27-0 lead in the rst half.
This was likely the last full test for
Chicagos rst-team offense before the sea-
son as the top stars will play sparingly if
at all in the exhibition nale next week
against Cleveland.
A week after falling behind 23-0 in the
rst half against New Orleans, the Raiders
(1-2) looked equally inept at the start
against the Bears as they were outgained
222-34 and outscored 24-0 in the less than
20 minutes.
Matt Flynn threw two interceptions on
just six passes before being pulled in favor
of Terrelle Pryor in the second quarter to the
delight of the frustrated crowd of Raiders
fans. Oaklands rst-team defense was shred-
ded and the usually reliable Sebastian
Janikowski even missed a 49-yard eld goal
before connecting from 58 yards out on the
nal play of the rst half to get Oakland on
the board.
Pryor then electrified the crowd by lead-
ing a late field-goal drive in the first half
and then running and throwing for scores
in the third quarter. Pryor finished 7 for 9
for 93 yards passing to go along with 37
yards rushing and led Oakland to 20 points
on five drives.
The Bears came into this game looking to
show their passing offense was more than
just Brandon Marshall after he was targeted
on all five throws by Cutler last week
against San Diego. Cutler managed to do
that on the rst drive with long completions
to Jeffery and tight end Marcellus Bennett
that set up a eld goal by Robbie Gould.
Both those completions came against
Raiders rookie D.J. Hayden, who played his
rst game since a near fatal practice colli-
sion last November in college at Houston.
Hayden recovered from that scare and was
picked 12th overall by Oakland but was not
cleared for contact until this week.
Bears beat Raiders 34-26 in exhibition

MINNEAPOLIS New York Yankees
manager Joe Girardi was livid, veins
bulging in his neck, as he peppered home
plate umpire Brian ONora with profanity
after Bostons Ryan Dempster hit Alex
Rodriguez in the left elbow on a 3-0 pitch.
Red Sox fans proclaimed Dempster a hero
and many folks wondered why Girardi would
stand up so forcefully over the plunking of
a player regarded by many as the scourge of
baseball. Three days later, they got their
answer.
In the span of just a few hours on
Wednesday night, Jason Heywards jaw was
broken by an errant pitch in a Braves-Mets
game, and a oating knuckleball broke the
left hand of Yankees inelder Jayson Nix.
Neither pitcher in those instances earned a
suspension like Dempster. But the acciden-
tal injuries underlined Girardis point about
just how dangerous it can be when a pitcher
decides to take matters into his own hands.
One little slip, one sweaty palm, one ill-
timed ick of the wrist can mean the differ-
ence between some harmless chin music
that can back off a hitter, and a whistling
pellet that can end a career, or worse.
Yeah, thats my point, Girardi said this
week. And obviously, Jason Heyward gets
hit in the jaw, and you know that youre not
trying to hit someone in the face, but it
happens. And it can change a players life.
It can change a lot of things. It can change
a season, and its something that Im very
adamant about.
Dempster, who has not acknowledged any
wrongdoing, was suspended ve games and
ned $2,500 for intentionally throwing at
Rodriguez, the Yankees third baseman
embroiled in a performance-enhancing
drugs scandal and playing while appealing a
211-game suspension. Whether a pitcher is
trying to send a message as Major
HBPs can do a lot of damage

SAN FRANCISCO Clint Barmes hit a
three-run home run, Charlie Morton pitched
eight strong innings and the Pittsburgh
Pirates beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on
Friday night.
Andrew McCutchen and Josh Harrison
each had two hits for the Pirates, who have
won four of ve and maintained their one-
game lead over the St. Louis Cardinals in
the NL Central.
Morton (5-3) allowed one run on seven
hits, two after the Giants scored their rst
run, over 7 2-3 innings. He walked one and
struck out three.
Madison Bumgarner (11-8) took a shutout
into the seventh and wound up allowing
three runs on seven hits over eight innings.
He walked four and struck out ve.
Roger Kieschnick drove in a run for the
Giants, who lost their third straight and ve
of six overall. Hunter Pence added a pair of
hits.
Morton improved to 4-1 over his last
eight starts with his longest outing of the
season.
Mark Melancon pitched the ninth for his
ninth save in 11 chances.
The Giants broke through in the fourth.
Buster Posey hit a one-out double and
advanced to third on a wild pitch. He scored
when Kieschnicks blooper fell safely in
short left eld.
The Giants had runners on in each of the
rst four innings. Following Kieschnicks
RBI single, Morton retired 12 of the next
13 before giving up a double to Brandon
Crawford with two outs in the eighth.
Tony Watson entered the game and struck
out Brandon Belt to end the inning.
Bumgarner retired 14 of 16 before giving
up consecutive singles to Gaby Sanchez and
Harrison ahead of Barmes three-run shot in
the seventh.
Russell Martin has thrown out a major-
league leading 26 runners after getting both
Hunter Pence and Gregor Blanco.
McCutchen extended his hitting streak
against the Giants to 10 games and is hit-
ting .475 (19 for 40) over that stretch.
NOTES: Pirates RHP Jason Grilli is sched-
uled for a bullpen session on Sunday and
could throw a simulated game in his follow-
ing appearance.

SAN FRANCISCO Barring a big breeze or
breakdown, Emirates Team New Zealand will
wrap up a spot in the Americas Cup match
against defending champion Oracle Team USA
on Saturday.
The Kiwis know it. The Italians know it.
Anybody following the races knows it.
After the Kiwis cruised past Luna Rossa
again Friday to take a 5-1 lead in the Louis
Vuitton Cup nals, Italian skipper Max Sirena
suggested one way to extend the challenger
series beyond this weekend.
I would like to swap boats, Sirena
quipped.
I dont think wed look good in silver,
Emirates skipper Dean Barker responded,
referring to the shiny sailing gear and chrome
hulls of the Italian team, which is backed by
the Prada fashion house.
Style points are about the only competition
left.
At this point, Emirates is approaching the
remaining races as the last chance to prepare
for Oracle. The Kiwis clearly have had the boat
to beat in the challenger series, and when
not if they advance is the only lingering
question. That, of course, and whether they are
better than Oracle.
Thats the hundred-million dollar question:
whos going to have the advantage? Barker
said.
The Kiwis are making quite a strong case
they do.
Foiling fast on foggy San Francisco Bay,
Barker and his crew completed a repeat of past
performances in the latest race. Emirates
moved over the top before the rst marker,

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. After a
crushing extra-inning loss in the Little
League World Series, Connecticut manager
Tim Rogers expected his New England cham-
pions to rebound.
Boy, did they ever.
Chad Knight lined a run-scoring single to
left field in the bottom of the seventh
inning, and Westport, Conn., beat
Northwest champion Sammamish, Wash.,
14-13 in a wild game Friday to earn a spot in
the U.S. championship game at the Little
League World Series.
Knight also hit a solo homer to tie it in the
fth.
Connecticut beat Sammamish for the sec-
ond time in a week to advance to play Chula
Vista, Calif., on Saturday for a berth in the
title game. Tijuana, Mexico, will face Tokyo
for the international title. The World Series
championship is Sunday.
Charlie Roof walked leading off to start
Connecticuts game-winning rally and
Ricky Offenberg hit a one-out double down
the left-eld line. With ve players manning
the ineld and playing in, Max Popken then
hit a one-hopper that Washington shortstop
Jack Carper stabbed with pinch-runner
Christopher Drbal breaking for home.
Offenberg ran into Carper as the
Washington player began to make a play for
Drbal, who was tagged out in a rundown.
Interference was called on Offenberg, leav-
ing Drbal at third and Popken at rst with
two outs, and Knight followed with his win-
ning hit, sending his teammates into deliri-
um near the mound.
Washington scored 10 runs in the fourth
on 11 hits to take what seemed like a com-
manding 12-5 lead, pounding a World Series
record-tying eight straight hits off
Connecticut starter Harry Azadian.
The barrage was stunning and matched the
record set by Dominican Republic in 1992
and equaled by Chula Vista, Calif., in 2009.
Adam Carper, Dylan Matsuoka, Jack
Carper, and Dalton Chandler each had RBI
singles, and Will Armbruester added a two-
run single. Zack Olson tripled home two
more to complete the hit parade and also
added a run-scoring double later in the
inning.
Undaunted, Connecticut stormed back with
seven runs in the bottom of the fth, hitting
three home runs to tie it at 13.
After Washington starter Chandler reached
his pitch count and departed, Matt Stone sin-
gled, Matt Brown doubled off the left-eld
wall and Alex Reiner homered off
Armbruester in relief.
Roof followed with a double off Jack
Carper, Drew Rogers lined an RBI single to
right, and Popken homered to right center.
Knight followed with a long home run to left
to tie the game.
Connecticut scored three runs in the bot-
tom of the third, helped by three Washington
errors, to take a short-lived 5-2 lead.
It was an impressive showing by
Westport, which had to rebound from a crush-
ing extra-inning loss to Chula Vista on
Wednesday night. The Western champions
won it on Grant Holmans three-run homer in
the top of the ninth.
Being so close at some point youre
going to lose. It would be rare not to,
Rogers said. I expect them to compete and
shake it off. I expect them to be competi-
tive.
In their rst matchup in the World Series
earlier in the week, Westport built a 9-2 lead
over Sammamish through four innings, then
hung on for a 9-7 win. Azadian had three hits
and four RBIs in that one as Westport sent 12
batters to the plate and scored seven runs in
the second inning.

BALTIMORE The Oakland Athletics
lost a game they normally win.
Coco Crisp homered, had four hits and
scored three runs as part of a solid offensive
showing by the Athletics, who twice gave
away leads to the Baltimore Orioles in a 9-7
defeat Friday night.
Brian Roberts hit a grand slam and Adam
Jones homered and drove in three runs for
the Orioles, who rallied from decits of 3-0
and 7-6.
There were a lot of things I liked today.
We just didnt pitch well, Oakland manager
Bob Melvin said. Offensively, we did some
really good things. I thought the effort
level, energy was really good today. I was
happy with everything today other than the
result.
As starter Dan Straily allowed six runs,
four hits and four walks in 3 1-3 innings.
Although he walked off the mound with the
As trailing 6-3, the right-hander avoided
losing his sixth straight decision when
Oakland took the lead with a four-run fth.
Crisp hit his 12th home run and tied a
career high for hits. It was his eighth game
of the season with at least three hits.
Coco is our table setter, Melvin said.
When Coco plays well we seem to fall in
behind him. We put up runs like that, we usu-
ally win those games.
The victory moved the Orioles past
Cleveland into third place in the wild-card
hunt. Tampa Bay is on top and Baltimore
now stands two games behind Oakland. The
top two teams make the playoffs.
The As have lost four of six and are 15-17
since the All-Star break.
Were going to go out there and play as
hard as we can, and if we end up making it to
the playoffs that would be fantastic, Crisp
said. If not, we knew we gave it our best
shot and thats what everyone in here is
doing right now.
Making his fth start for Baltimore since
coming in a trade with Houston, Bud Norris
yielded seven runs and nine hits in 4 2-3
innings. In four appearances against
Oakland this season, hes 0-3 with a 9.35
ERA.
This is about the team battling back,
Norris said. They picked me up. To win that
one, the rst game of the series, is huge.
In the Baltimore seventh, Jesse Chavez
walked Nate McLouth and was replaced by
Ryan Cook (5-3).
Asingle by Manny Machado put runners
at the corners, and McLouth scored when
second baseman Eric Sogard misplayed a
grounder by Chris Davis. Jones followed
with a run-scoring groundout and Nick
Markakis capped the uprising with an RBI
single.
Francisco Rodriguez (2-0) got the win and
Jim Johnson, the fourth Baltimore reliever,
worked a perfect ninth for his 40th save.
He had blown his previous three attempts.

STANFORD Every time Tyler Gaffney attended a Stanford
practice last year, Coach David Shaw teased his former running
back that he had one year of eligibility remaining.
Shaw never really thought Gaffney would put off a profes-
sional baseball career and return to football anytime soon, not
with him playing so well in the minors for the Pittsburgh
Pirates. For the most part, he just joked with him about the
possibility.
Id walk up, and I used to run the wildcat,
hed yell out, Tiger Gaff! Im in jeans and
walking up there. Everyone would laugh,
Gaffney said. Little things like that, say-
ing, Oh, well see you next year. Coach
would come up and give me his business
card and say, Oh, well talk later. Well talk
later.
What Shaw found out later is that Gaffney
already had been plotting a return.
After a solid debut with the short season
Class-AState College Spikes, Gaffney got the urge to resume
his football career and chase the two things missing from his
Stanford resume: a degree and a championship.
He wrote out the pros and cons of the decision on a white-
board with his parents in January. Then, he called a meeting
with Shaw to make sure Stanford would welcome him back.
Finally, he parted ways with the Pirates at least for now
to make a run at a Pac-12 Conference title and a national cham-
pionship with the fourth-ranked Cardinal this fall.
Gaffney said he missed the adrenaline on football game days,
the challenge of moving another man against his will and
lining up with 10 other players as opposed to a one-on-one
matchup with a pitcher. At times, he said living with a host
family in State College, Pa., and being surrounded by intense
Penn State football fans felt like being on another planet com-
pared to Stanfords serene Silicon Valley campus.
When baseball season ended, Gaffney attended almost every
Stanford home game and a couple on the road, including at
Oregon when the Cardinal outlasted the top-ranked Ducks in
overtime en route to a conference championship and the pro-
grams rst Rose Bowl victory in 41 years.
Watching from the sideline and the stands reminded him
what he had left behind.
I wish everybody could take a year off and be a fan for a
game just to see whats going on from the outside, Gaffney
said. Its just an unbelievable experience to be so helpless.
Always more than one
Ever since he could remember, Gaffney played more than one
sport. He starred at San Diegos Cathedral Catholic High
School in baseball and football and chose Stanford because of
the opportunity to play both, following in the footsteps of
Cardinal greats such as John Elway and John Lynch and Toby
Gerhart.
In the back of his mind, Gaffney always knew he could come
back to football.
NCAA rules allow an athlete to play professionally in one
sport and maintain eligibility in another, so long as they dont
receive money from endorsements. While its rare for a player
to return after missing an entire season of major college foot-
ball, plenty of players have rotated between sports, including
at Stanford.
Elway (Yankees) and Lynch (Marlins) played in the minors
before going back to Stanford. Gerhart, the 2009 Heisman
Trophy runner-up and current Minnesota Vikings running
back, turned down an opportunity to play professional base-
ball.
Great timing
Gaffneys return couldnt come at a better time on The Farm.
With Stanford career rushing leader Stepfan Taylor playing for
the Arizona Cardinals now, Gaffney will get more opportuni-
ties than he ever had before.
In his rst three seasons, Gaffney ran for 791 yards and 12
touchdowns on only 156 carries. He also caught 17 passes for
187 yards and three TDs.
Shaw said he always knew Gaffney could come back. He just
thought Gaffney would play at least two years of baseball rst.
When its all said and done, hes going to play football for
pay in the future, Shaw said.
Senior Anthony Wilkerson and Gaffney, who played ahead of
Wilkerson two years ago, will likely receive the majority of
snaps. But Ricky Seale, Kelsey Young, Remound Wright and
Barry Sanders all will receive carries on what has been one of
the nations best rushing teams since Shaw and his predeces-
sor, Jim Harbaugh, arrived in 2007.
And Gaffney embodies that tough, physical style. He rarely
runs out of bounds, preferring to go head-on with defenders
a mentality that often surfaced on the baseball diamond, too.
Pretty good baseball player
Gaffney, drafted in the 24th round by the Pirates as an outeld-
er, batted .297 and had an impressive .483 on-base percentage for
State College thanks to a style that makes advanced statisticians
salivate: He drew 20 walks to 20 strikeouts and was hit by a pitch
an unbelievable 20 times in 38 games.
I swear I dont stand on the plate. I dont shy away from the
ball, he said.
Gaffney, who said he has 20-15 vision, surmised that part of
the reason he gets hit so much is his mental approach at the plate.
He is double-majoring in sociology and psychology, and he
loves using methods he has learned in the classroom on the eld.
In typical Gaffney fashion, he said his favorite moment from
last season was a benches-clearing altercation, which started
when Connecticut Tigers pitcher Angel Nesbitt threw behind
Gaffney. Gaffney smiled and stood closer to the plate, getting
plunked in the left shoulder on the next pitch. The umpire ejected
Nesbitt.
Smiling goes a long a way, Gaffney said. I like pressing
peoples buttons.
Gaffney never charged the mound; he said he couldnt afford a
ne. He learned in his rst game as a professional that contact in
baseball can come at a price.
Gaffney stole 11 bases for State College, and on his rst
attempt, he started to slide head-rst into second. At the last
moment, he remembered the Pirates ne minor-league players
$150 for going in head-rst, and he jammed his left pinkie nger
in the dirt trying to make the transition. The knuckle on his left
pinkie is still misshaped.
You could always tell the way he plays that hes a football
player rst, Wilkerson said.

SANTACLARA Seneca Wallace stepped on the prac-
tice eld for the rst time with the San Francisco 49ers
on Friday as the most experienced quarterback on the ros-
ter.
Whether the nine-year veteran still has a job with the
team in two weeks depends on how quickly and how well
he can pick up and t into a system friendly to his skills.
Im real excited to be here and be a part of this,
Wallace said. When youre an athletic quarterback, and
thats your background, you just try to utilize your tal-
ents the best that you can. The good thing here is that
they utilize a quarterbacks talents and theyre trying to
win. Thats the biggest thing. If this certain individual
does things well, thats what theyre going to utilize.
Coach Jim Harbaugh said he expects Wallace, signed
by the 49ers on Thursday, to play in Sundays preseason
game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Harbaugh said all five quarterbacks on the San
Francisco roster are likely to see action against the
Vikings as the 49ers attempt to sort out their uncertain
backup situation behind starter Colin Kaepernick before
the regular season begins.
Kaepernick, who has played only San Franciscos rst
offensive series in each of the teams two preseason
games, will start again against the Vikings. Well split
it up after Kap four ways, Harbaugh said.
The 49ers are anxious to get a look at their new quar-
terback. Wallace was released Monday by the New
Orleans Saints.
The fact that you can get an experienced quarterback
like Seneca Wallace at this stage, I felt there was no
downside to that, Harbaugh said. He can do a lot of the
things that a quarterback that can move can do in our sys-
tem. He hit the ground running and hell get right out
there and start playing.
The 49ers added Wallace because Colt McCoy and Scott
Tolzien have struggled so far during the preseason.
McCoy threw an interception in each game, completed
just 46 percent of his passes and has a preseason passer
rating of 25.3. Tolzien has completed 53 percent of his
throws and has a passer rating of 57.0
Seventh-round draft pick B.J. Daniels made his profes-
sional preseason debut last week against the Kansas City
Chiefs and led the 49ers on the winning touchdown drive
late in the game. The rookie completed all six of his
passes on the drive, rushed for 13 yards and led San
Francisco with 72 yards passing and a 128.0 passer rat-
ing on the night.
Those three quarterbacks now will share snaps both in
practice and in San Franciscos nal two exhibitions
with Wallace, who has 21 career starts with the Seattle
Seahawks and Cleveland Browns.

chance with 49ers

TUKWILA, Wash. Aside from his head
coach, Brad Evans is about the only one who
has been there for all the moments, games and
events that have helped dene the Seattle
Sounders and the wild success of the franchise.
Sunday night will be another one of those
memorable events for the Sounders when the
second-largest crowd for an MLS regular-season
game about 67,000 fans is expected to see
the home side face rival Portland in Clint
Dempseys rst home match with Seattle.
The Sounders have played twice with
Dempsey, both on the road in Toronto and
Houston. Its just luck of the schedule that his
home debut comes against Seattles most heated
rival with CenturyLink Field having been sold
out for a couple of weeks.
Its great things are moving in that direc-
tion, Dempsey said about the attention on
Sundays match. The game is growing here, as
you can see more franchises popping up,
more soccer-specic stadiums. Its awesome to
be a part of, helping continue the growth of the
game here. The most important thing is to make
sure were successful here in Seattle and we get
the job done.
While bragging rights and positioning in the
Cascadia Cup rivalry between Seattle, Portland
and Vancouver will always be at stake anytime
the three sides are facing off, Sundays match
brings a new aspect that hasnt been there the
last two seasons: a legitimate ght for playoff
positioning with two months left in the regular
season.
Portland enters the match unbeaten in its last
three and in second place in the Western
Conference but smarting from a missed oppor-
tunity to move on top of the conference stand-
ings. The Timbers held a late 3-2 lead against
10-man Real Salt Lake on Wednesday night, but
gave up a stoppage time goal for a 3-3 draw, the
Timbers 12th tie this season.
We denitely want to play this game against
Seattle as quickly as possible, Portlands Ryan
Johnson said following the 3-3 draw. Were all
looking forward to going. Its going to be a
great game with all of those fans. Should be
exciting.
Meanwhile the Sounders are still playing
catch up. Entering the weekend they are two
points behind Vancouver for the nal playoff
spot in the Western Conference, but have
played the fewest league matches of any team in
MLS. Having additional games to make up
ground is an advantage for the Sounders. The
disadvantage they have is the upcoming games
in September and October when Dempsey,
Evans and Eddie Johnson will likely be gone for
World Cup qualifying.
Seattle is welcoming Portlands success, just
as long as the Timbers dont get in the way of
the Sounders own playoff aspirations. The
competitiveness is good for the rivalry, beyond
just geographical proximity of the two fran-
chises.
For me there are always the marquee games.
The rst game of the inaugural season; Kasey
Kellers farewell game was a big game; and any-
time we meet these guys its a big game, Evans
said. You add a little bit of something extra
when its Clints rst game at home, selling out
what we think is the whole stadium, but also
there has never been this sort of battle for posi-
tional rankings right now and the standings
havent been as close as they are right now.
Seattle also feels like it gave away two points
earlier this season to Portland that could prove
important down the line. The Sounders were
moments away from a 1-0 victory against the
Timbers in their second game of the season
when Rodney Wallace scored on a header at the
beginning of second half stoppage time for a 1-
1 draw.
The sides also have a match in October in
Portland, but Seattle coach Sigi Schmid hopes
to see the Timbers, Sounders and Vancouver all
playing in the postseason.
Can you imagine what things would be like
if us, Vancouver, and Portland all made the play-
offs and ended up playing each other? Schmid
said. That would be immense.

Ryan Villopoto polished off another cham-
pionship by winning his seventh race of the
season in Utah last week, giving him two
AMAMotocross titles in the past three years.
The latest title runs his total to eight, tying
him with Jeremy McGrath for second all-time
behind Ricky Carmichael.
It also solidied his place among the best
riders in the history of his sport.
It may be time to carve out a new face on the
Mount Rushmore of motocross, said Davey
Coombs, vice president of the Lucas Oil
Motocross Championships. Hes got a long
way to go to catch Carmichael, but hes proven
both indoors and outdoors, he is without a
doubt the fastest man on the planet.
Its a hard point to argue
because when Villopoto
has been healthy, hes
been almost uncatchable.
Since he won the 250cc
class in 2006, the 25-year-
old from Poulsbo, Wash.,
has won a motocross title
every full season hes com-
peted.
Villopoto followed his
initial 250 title with two more, but wasnt able
to nish his rst 450 season in 2009 due to a
knee injury. Ahorric wreck in St. Louis during
the 2010 Supercross season left him with two
broken bones in his right leg and wiped out his
outdoor season.
After a grueling rehabilitation, Villopoto
put together one of the best years in motocross
history, sweeping the 2011 Supercross and
outdoor titles, and capping it by winning
motocross rst $1 million prize at the
Monster Energy Cup.
Villopoto was dominant again in 2012,
clinching the Supercross title with four races
left, but tore his left ACL at his hometown
track in Seattle and missed the outdoor season.
Just like his previous injuries, he came back
strong as ever this year, winning 10 races to
join McGrath, Carmichael and Bob Hannah as
the only riders to win three straight Supercross
titles.
He backed that up with another runaway dur-
ing the outdoor season, winning his seventh
race in Tooele, Utah, last week to clinch the
title before this weekends season nale at
Lake Elsinore in Southern California.
The eighth title puts him in select company,
tied with McGrath and seven behind
Carmichael, considered the two greatest riders
in the sports history.
Its a great accomplishment, but Im sitting
here at Elsinore and can only think about the
next thing coming up, Villopoto said.
Theres not really time to sit back and think
about that. Youre only as good as your last
race in this sport.
Villopoto has been pretty good against the
best riders in the world.
There were times during Carmichael and
McGraths careers when they werent facing
the toughest of competition, some of the elds
lled out with part-time riders.
Villopoto has won at a time when racing
teams have become major operations, groom-
ing riders from young ages to be full-time pro-
fessionals.

building a lead the rest of the way to win by 1 minute, 57 sec-

Emirates needs two more victories in the best-of-13 series to
set up a match with Oracle in the 34th Americas Cup starting
Sept. 7. The Kiwis can end it as soon as Saturday, when two
races are scheduled, though a forecast of strong wind threatens
to push back the second race or even both to Sunday.
The weather might be the only way the Italians survive past
the weekend.
The one Luna Rossa win in the nals of the challenger series
came in the second race, when the Kiwis withdrew because the
electronics system that controls the hydraulics failed. Emirates
tactician Ray Davies called that an odd occurrence and promised
his team wouldnt be beat by a mechanical mishap again, and
so far thats held true and then some.
Sailing in lighter air and on a stronger ood tide, the Kiwis
crushed the current and the competition. Both teams started
evenly, and just like every other race, Emirates popped up on
its foils quickly and led at the rst marker.
The Italians never got so close again.
Itd be like running a race and going around the corner and
knowing that the person in front of you is probably going to
be quicker and then try to catch up to them, Luna Rossa bow-
man Nick Hutton said. If you do that every day, it gets a little
restraining.

SAILING
League Baseball ofcials believe Dempster was doing or
simply has one get away from him while trying to establish
control of the inside part of the plate, the results can some-
times be catastrophic.
Red Sox fans know all about that.
Beloved young star Tony Conigliaro was hit on the left
cheekbone by a pitch from Californias Jack Hamilton in
1967. He was carried off the eld on a stretcher in a fright-
ening scene and suffered severe damage to his left orbital
bone, retina and jaw. He had to retire early because of prob-
lems with his vision.
Clevelands Ray Chapman died after being hit in the head
by a pitch from the Yankees Carl Mays in 1920. Mickey
Cochranes skull was fractured and he was knocked uncon-
scious after being hit by a pitch from Yankee Irving Hadley
in 1937, ending the Hall of Famers career. The careers of
Dickie Thon, Adam Greenberg and many others were altered
after they were hit by pitches.
For hitters and pitchers alike, there is a conscious effort to
block out the idea of baseball as a contact sport.
Its scary, Marlins closer Steve Cishek said. Ive hit
two guys in the head or the face in my career. Both times I
did it, it was 0-2.
You dont want to do that. Its part of the game, he said.
For the most part its not on purpose. But its tough to
bounce back from something like that. If you hit someone
in the face, its the last thing you want to do. When I did it,
it kind of got in my head a little bit.
Marlins rst baseman Logan Morrison physically shud-
dered when he saw replays of Heyward getting hit by the
Mets. Heyward had surgery on his right jaw this week and
could miss the rest of the regular season.
Its just one of those things where you hope it doesnt
happen to you, Morrison said. Youre trained so long to
stay in there and see it until the last possible second.
Hopefully, you can get out of the way.
Unlike Dempster and A-Rod, Jonathon Niese wasnt try-
ing to hit Heyward.
I wanted to elevate a fastball but it just kind of ran in on
him. Obviously no intent, Niese said. I felt horrible. This
game can be pretty dangerous.
Especially when pitchers are trying to use the inside part
of the plate. Many hitters crowd the plate, daring pitchers to
throw the ball inside and risk putting them on base with an
errant pitch. Many of the best pitchers refuse to back down,
no matter the potential consequences.
Im not going to let some guy beat me because Im scared
to throw inside, Blue Jays All-Star closer Brett Cecil said.
Niese wont face a fine or a suspension for hitting
Heyward. It was an accident, just like the knuckler from
Torontos R.A. Dickey that landed Nix on the disabled list
as the Yankees try to chase down a playoff spot.
The way Girardi sees it, theres a difference between acci-
dentally hitting a batter while trying to establish command
of the inside part of the plate and throwing at someone on
purpose three times before plunking him on the elbow. The
way he sees it, its too easy for something to go wrong.
Thats why Girardi ranted to the point of ejection against
the Red Sox last weekend. Thats why he lobbied so hard for
Dempsters suspension.
You know, theres a way to police the game the right way,
but injuries happen when players get hit, he said. And you
think about Nixy getting hit, I mean, the last thing youre
probably thinking is youre going to have your hand bro-
ken by a knuckleball, but it hit just right. And I know thats
part of the game, but you worry about players.

Always Welcome!
It is extremely gratifying and humbling to have reached a significant milestone in my career having sold
more than 1,000 homes now. In starting my 30th year in the residential real estate business, I have had the
honor of helping people in the purchase of their first homes to the long time owners ready to transition into
another phase of their lives. There is truly nothing more satisfying than handing over a set of keys to a first
time buyer and seeing the excitement in their faces as they realize they own a home.
There are the move-up clients who are balancing both the sale of their home while looking for their dream
home. That may be the most difficult type of transaction as in a good market, you can sell your home easily
for a great price, but finding the right home and
dealing with competition can make the purchase
side a stressful circumstance. In a down-market,
you can find your dream home for a great price, but
its harder to sell the home you are living in.
Nevertheless, things always seem to work out!
Then there are the long time owners who are
downsizing and transitioning into a retirement and
the nest egg of their home has now provided them
with the ability to enjoy their retirement too!
I have also assisted investors who have built a
portfolio of income property. Real Estate has
almost always been a significantly rewarding
investment when held for the long term.
What is amazing now is that the next
generation of sons and daughters of these clients
are now ready to find their first home. I am
looking forward to the next 1,000 home SOLD!

TRIPOLI, Lebanon Twin car bombs
exploded outside mosques in the northern
Lebanese city of Tripoli Friday, killing at
least 29 people, wounding over 350 and
wreaking major destruction in the countrys
second largest city, Lebanese Health
Ministry ofcials said.
Footage aired on local TV showed thick,
black smoke billowing over the city and
bodies scattered beside burning cars in
scenes reminiscent of Lebanons 1975-90
civil war.
The blasts hit amid soaring tensions in
Lebanon as a result of Syrias civil war,
which has sharply polarized the country
along sectarian lines and between support-
ers and opponents of the regime of Syrian
President Bashar Assad. It was the second
such bombing in just over a week, showing
the degree to which the tiny country is
being consumed by the raging war next
door.
Tripoli, a predominantly Sunni Muslim
city, has seen frequent clashes between
Sunnis and Alawites, a Shiite offshoot sect
to which Assad belongs. But the city itself
has rarely seen such explosions in recent
years.
Fridays blasts mark the first time in
years that such explosions have targeted
Sunni strongholds and were bound to raise
sectarian tensions in the country to new
levels. It was also the most powerful and
deadliest in Tripoli since the end of the
civil war.
Attacks have become common in the past
few months against Shiite strongholds in
Lebanon, particularly following the open
participation of the militant Shiite
Hezbollah group on behalf of Assad in
Syrias civil war.
On Aug. 15, a car bomb rocked a Shiite
stronghold of Hezbollah in the southern
suburbs of Beirut, also killing 27 people
and wounding over 300. Aless powerful car
bomb targeted the same area on July 9,
wounding over 50.

JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash.
The U.S. soldier who massacred 16
Afghan civilians last year in one of the
worst atrocities of the Iraq and Afghanistan
wars was sentenced Friday to life in prison
with no chance of parole the most severe
sentence possible, but one that left surviv-
ing victims and relatives of the dead deeply
unsatised.
We wanted this murderer to be executed,
said Hajji Mohammad Wazir, who lost 11
family members in the attack by Staff Sgt.
Robert Bales. We were
brought all the way from
Afghanistan to see if jus-
tice would be served. Not
our way justice was
served the American
way.
Bales, 40, pleaded
guilty in June in a deal to
avoid the death penalty
for his March 11, 2012,
raids near his remote outpost in Kandahar
province, when he stalked through mud-
walled compounds and shot 22 people 17
of them women and children. Some
screamed for mercy, while others didnt
even have a chance to get out of bed.
The only possible sentences were life in
prison without parole, or life with the pos-
sibility of release after 20 years. The soldier
showed no emotion as the six jurors chose
the former after deliberating for less than
two hours.
His mother, sitting in the front row of the
court, bowed her head, rocked in her seat,
and wept.
An interpreter ashed a thumbs-up sign to
a row of Afghan villagers who were either
wounded or lost family members in the
March 11, 2012, attacks.
I saw his mother trying to cry, but at
least she can go visit him, Hajji
Mohammad Naim, who was shot in the
neck, said after the sentencing. What
about us? Our family members are actually 6
feet under.
The villagers, who traveled nearly 7,000
miles to testify against Bales, spoke with
reporters through an interpreter and asked
what it would be like for someone to break
into American homes and slaughter their
families. Aboy of about 13 displayed a scar
from a bullet wound to his leg.
They also criticized American involve-
ment in Afghanistan, saying the soldiers
came to build their country but have done no
such thing.
Villagers unsatisfied by life sentence for Bales
The schools policy has been in effect for
several years but was merely formalized with
approval from the San Mateo Union High
School Board of Trustees Thursday night. The
vote was 4-1 in favor of the measure, with
Trustee Marc Friedman voting against it.
Friedman thinks the policy stigmatizes
Capuchino as being dangerous.
This says theres a gang problem at
Capuchino, Friedman said. My secondary
concern was that dress codes in general,
unless theres truly a safety issue, infringes
on freedom of speech.
He cites a board policy stating that the
principal, staff and parents/guardians at a
school may establish a reasonable dress code
that prohibits students from wearing gang-
related apparel when there is evidence of a
gang presence that disrupts or threatens to
disrupt the schools activities. The board
shall approve the plan upon determining that
it is necessary to protect the health and safe-
ty of the schools students.
Apolice ofcer who works on the schools
campus, as well as Principal Shamar Shanks
attended Thursday nights meeting and said
that Capuchino doesnt have a gang problem
but that the code is a way to make sure it does-
nt get one.
The 2010 district wide dress code policy
has a provision that allows for any school to
bring forward more specic dress code rules
and Capuchino is the rst school to do so.
The 2010 policy has general rules about not
wearing gang related, sexually suggestive or
drug related apparel and includes other terms.
The Capuchino policy species that cloth-
ing that indicates gang afliation or in sup-
port of gang activity, such as dice, dollar
signs, area codes, XIII, XIV, Norte, Sur, W,
Crip, Blood or LPL. It also prohibits cloth-
ing that is red or blue, including backpacks,
accessories, makeup, belts, shoes, laces, etc.
Students are expected to dress in a manner
that is not disruptive to the learning process,
is safe and does not construe gang aflia-
tions, a staff report stated.
Kirk Black, the districts associate superin-
tendent for human resources and administra-
tive services, said the district periodically
reviews policies and decided to make this an
ofcial policy.
Were always looking for ways to improve
the culture of schools, said Liz McManus,
deputy superintendent of business services
for the district.
Board President Peter Hanley supported the
item, calling it a proactive measure.
Its not very different from the district
wide policy, Hanley said. Its about dress-
ing in a professional and respectful manner.

The re hit the park at the height of sum-
mer season, as ofcials geared up for a busy
Labor Day weekend. It has closed some back-
country hiking but was not threatening the
Yosemite Valley region, one of Californias
most popular tourist destinations.
The spectacular valley carved by glaciers
offers visitors such iconic sights as the Half
Dome and El Capitan rock formations and
Bridalveil and Yosemite falls.
The weeklong blaze has spread to more
than 165 square miles and was only 2 percent
contained. It continued to grow in several
directions, although most of the re activi-
ty is pushing to the east right into
Yosemite, said Daniel Berlant, spokesman
for the California Department of Forestry and
Fire Protection.
Smoke blowing across the Sierra into the
state of Nevada forced ofcials in several
counties to cancel outdoor school activities
and issue health advisories, especially for
people with respiratory problems.
Authorities urged more evacuations in
nearby communities where thousands have
already been forced out by ames.
The re was threatening about 4,500 resi-
dences, according to the U.S. Forest Service.
Already, the blaze has destroyed four homes
and 12 outbuildings in several different
areas. More than 2,000 reghters were on
the lines and one sustained a heat-related
injury.
While the park remained open, the blaze
closed a 4-mile stretch of State Route 120,
one of three entrances into Yosemite on the
west side. Two other western routes and an
eastern route were open.
Within the park, the blaze was burning on
about 17 square miles in a remote area around
Lake Eleanor, about 4 miles northwest of
Hetch Hetchy reservoir, Yosemite spokes-
woman Kari Cobb said.
Backcountry permits are required to hike in
that area, Cobb said. The park was no longer
issuing those and had contacted every person
who had received a permit to go there. Two
roads into that area were closed and occu-
pants of a campground near the Route 120
west entrance were relocated.
We dont have anybody we know of in
that area based on the permits we have out
now, she said.
The re was more than 20 miles from
Yosemite Valley and skies there were crys-
tal clear, Cobb said.
Right now there are no closures, and no
visitor services are being affected in the
park, he said. We just have to take one day
at a time depending on re activity.
The Hetch Hetchy reservoir supplies San
Francisco with 85 percent of its water, but
the citys Public Utilities Commission said
in a statement that water quality has not
been affected by the re and was unlikely to
be.
Two of three hydroelectric powerhouses in
the area have been shut down because of the
re, the commission said, but the city has
been able to make up the difference through
buying power on the open market.
On Friday, ofcials issued voluntary evac-
uation advisories for two new towns
Tuolumne City, population 1,800, and
Ponderosa Hills, a community of several
hundred which are about ve miles from
the re line, Forest Service spokesman Jerry
Snyder said.
Amandatory evacuation order remained in
effect for part of Pine Mountain Lake, a sum-
mer gated community a few miles from the
re.

In ancient times B.V.G. (Before Video
Games), heres how kids played: Take all
your toys dolls, soldiers, cars, blocks,
that thing you got from a cereal box and
dump them on the oor. Forget about logic
or plot consistency because the most
important goal is to create an entertaining
adventure. (My neighborhood is still reel-
ing from the sordid G.I. Joe-Barbie affair of
1974.)
Thats the essence of Disney Innity
(for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U,
Wii, $74.99 for starter kit). Why not let
Buzz Lightyear ride Dumbo? Or invite
Mickey Mouse to hang out with Wreck-It
Ralph? Theres one limitation: the charac-
ters have to belong to The Walt Disney Co.
But given the depth of Disneys roster
which now includes Star Wars, Marvel
superheroes and the Muppets the possi-
ble combinations do seem endless.
The starter kit comes with gurines of Mr.
Incredible, Capt. Jack Sparrow and Sulley,
and play sets for their corresponding
movies, The Incredibles, Pirates of the
Caribbean and Monsters University.
Additional characters cost $13 each; Cars
and The Lone Ranger play sets cost $35
each. Its hardly the optimal lineup:
Disneys hand-drawn animated classics are
absent, and Id happily trade Tonto for, say,
Scrooge McDuck. (I suspect the games
developers would have, too.)
The introductory package also includes
the Innity Base, which plugs into your
game console and has two round spaces for
characters and a hexagonal space for a play
set. Park Sulley and his play set on the
base, for example, and youre off on an
adventure at Monsters U. By providing dif-
ferent game worlds for different characters,
the play sets distinguish Disney Innity
from its obvious inspiration, Activisions
blockbuster Skylanders series.
The initial play sets offer an engaging
mix of video-game genres. The Incredibles
leap tall buildings and battle evil robots.
Capt. Jack engages in swordplay and com-
mands a pirate ship. And the Monsters U.
students conduct a stealthy war of pranks
against their rivals at Fear Tech.
Each of these solo campaigns lasts about
four hours, but youll want to spend more
time collecting the hundreds of capsules
scattered across each open world. They con-

NEW YORK Ben Afeck will be the
next Batman: How bout them apples?
Well, the Internet, which erupted Thursday
night after Warner Bros. announced that
Afeck will play the Caped Crusader for its
Superman and Batman team-up movie, does
not like them apples one bit. Jokes (many
of them imagining a Batman from South
Boston) flew on Twitter. Petitions with
thousands of signatures were launched to
urge Warner Bros. to rethink their decision.
Affleck, just months ago the toast of
Hollywood for his best picture-winning
Argo, hasnt had so much scorn heaped on
him since Gigli.
The response, roughly equivalent to news
of the apocalypse, was undoubtedly out of
proportion. After the leaden, joyless Man
of Steel, adding Afeck an actor of light,
easy charisma and an increasingly capable
lmmaker can only improve a franchise
currently in the hands of Sucker Punch
director Zach Snyder and the beefy but unre-
markable Superman actor Henry Cavill.
Afeck is likely to be far from the biggest
issue for the lm, which is scheduled to
begin shooting next year and be released in

Ayoung adult ction binge has
broken out in Mortal
Instruments: City of Bones.
Like an 80-car pill-up, all of the
current tropes of teenage fantasy
here careen into one another: the
young heroine with previously
unknown powers; the gothic mix
of heavenly and hellish supernatu-
ral creatures; the breathless
romance with a young Brit of
angelic cheekbones. And, oh, the
tattoos.
Its an overdose of mysticism,
concocted to give devoted young
fans their fix: a heartthrob to
swoon over and grand battles to
match inated teenage emotions.
The lm is based on the rst in a
series of popular young adult nov-
els by Cassandra Clare, whose
writing originated in Harry
Potter fan ction. Its a blatant
inspiration to City of Bones,
the rst of a planned franchise, as
is (if you havent already guessed)
Twilight.
Like a hand bag bought on a
New York street, this is the knock-
off version.
Lily Collins stars as Clary, a
teen who discovers that her moth-
er (Lena Headey) is secretly a
Shadowhunter, a hunter of
demons. At the same time as her
mom is kidnapped, Clary, a bright
redhead, realizes shes able to see
a hidden world in their native New
York, one where Shadowhunters,
demons, werewolves and warlocks
stealthily operate in varying
degrees of gothic drab, invisible
to humans, or mundanes.
Its a lot like a mediocre episode
of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
As she hunts for her mom, Clary
is quickly indoctrinated into this
underworld, led into it by the
aforementioned heartthrob, Jace
(Jamie Campbell Bower), an allur-
ing Shadowhunter with blond
locks.
Directing from Jessica
Postigos overstuffed screenplay,
Harald Zwart (the Karate Kid
remake) summons the kind of
dingy, baroque, nighttime atmos-
phere that Jonathan Rhys Meyers
revels in. As if falling for the
trap, he reliably turns up to lend
his pallor to the proceedings as
the villain Valentine. Hes seek-
ing a magical cup that Clary
might if she can stir the memo-
ries her mother had tried to block
know the location of.
The plot is astonishingly over-
cooked: a mishmash of watery
portals, Greek-styled father-son
drama, invisible buildings and
supernatural battle lines. It reach-
es an apogee of ridiculousness
when, we are informed, Bach was a
Shadowhunter, whose composi-
tions were designed to ward off
demons.
What can be said for City of
Bones (a sequel is already in the
works) is that its not brooding or
abundantly self-serious. The cast
generally lends enjoyable per-
formances, even if the lmmaking
(a made-for-TV movie level of
craft, even with the abundant spe-
cial effects) is lacking.
The handful of comic, self-dep-
recating moments in the lm
quick nods to the mounting silli-

pleasant cheeriness that it would
have done well to pursue further.
Instead, it desperately gathers
clichis like a teen fantasy
Frankenstein that doesnt realize
its secret identity: parody.
Mortal Instruments: The City
of Bones, a Sony Screen Gems

Motion Picture Association of
America for intense sequences of
fantasy violence and action, and
some suggestive content.
Running time: 130 minutes. One

LOS ANGELES Youre Next
is a nasty little slasher lm that
starts poorly but gets better once
most of the cast has been
butchered.
Indie lm gures Joe Swanberg
and Ti West play two attendees at a
party where four siblings and their
signicant others are celebrating
their parents 35th wedding
anniversary. Most tolerable
among this largely annoying crew
are Crispian (A.J. Bowen), a col-
lege prof, and his Australian girl-
friend Erin (Sharni Vinson), but
thats not paying the two very
high praise. The irritation factor
grows substantially after the rst
slaying at this remote Tudor man-
sion, when half the female cast
seems to be competing to shriek
the longest.
An unknown number of men,
wearing animal masks and wield-
ing crossbows (why not guns?),
are stalking the family from with-
out and within the house; since
director Adam Wingard and screen-
writer Simon Barrett have given
themselves so many characters to
kill, they start off with a few quick
killings in which the victims are
behaving so stupidly theyre prac-
tically asking to die.
Most frustrating during the
lms rst half is that only one
among the 10 characters, Erin, has
anything approaching a self-
preservation instinct. While oth-
ers scream or stand around dumbly,
she hustles off to lock windows
and gather weapons. While the
mask-wearing villains have a hard
time delivering the kind of novel
slayings horror fans demand,
Vinson musters the ferocity to

tain the components youll need to
build your own virtual playground in
the Disney Innity Toy Box.
Your Toy Box begins as a small, at
plot of land that you can upgrade with
trees, hills and other natural features.
As you gather more capsules, you can
add people, animals, vehicles and
buildings. And if youre ambitious,
Disney Innity gives you the tools
to build drivable racetracks or playable
pinball tables.
If you want to jump right into the
Toy Box youll be frustrated, since you
need to explore the play sets to nd
enough objects to build with. And
theres an unfortunate element of ran-
domization, so you may not be able to
nd that one item you need to top off
that paintball sim youve worked so
hard on. Some items are available on
power discs that are sold separately
two for $5 but they come in blind
packaging so you never know what
youll get.
With its amusing, movie-specific
adventures and its deep yet easy-to-use
Toy Box, the Disney Innity starter
kit provides more than enough activi-
ty to be well worth the $75 price. But
cost-conscious parents should be
wary. Once you start adding charac-
ters, play sets and power discs, your
future investment in Innity could
be, well, innite. Three stars out of

DISNEY
summer 2015. He has already proven
to be a more interesting Superman,
too, by playing a bitter George Reeves
in the atmospheric 2006 docudrama
Hollywoodland.
Theres a long history of casting
overreaction thats later turned out
laughable. There were plenty of crit-
ics when Daniel Craig, who had the
audaciousness of being blond, inher-
ited James Bond. Some, too, ques-
tioned Jennifer Lawrences suitabili-
ty for Katniss Everdeen in The
Hunger Games. And who would have
guessed that Michael Keaton would
make arguably the best of all the
Batmen?
But Afflecks casting speaks to a
larger shift in this age of the superhero
blockbuster. Afeck will be following
in the footsteps of Christian Bale, the
star of Christopher Nolans Dark
Knight trilogy the artistic apogee
of the superhero movies, a series that
treated its hero not as cartoon but a
vessel for exploring themes of terror-
ism and justice.
The days of such aspirations,
though, seem to be dwindling. Sam
Raimi isnt shepherding Spider-Man
anymore. Most of the most popular
superheros are on their second or third
reboot. After the success of Joss
Whedons The Avengers, Hollywood
is looking increasingly to pairing its
comics. Another Avengers lm is on
the way. And after the Superman-
Batman movie, a Justice League lm
(with Superman, Batman, Wonder
Woman, Flash, Aquaman and others) is
rumored to follow.
These are the kinds of projects that
could be seen as a sign of jumping the
shark if this wasnt a movie genre built
on men in tights. The superhero
blockbuster, still the biggest draw at
the multiplex (with $408.2 million,
Iron Man 3 is easily this years
biggest box-ofce hit), has made gim-
mickry a way of business, not a fault.
In the past, superhero movies didnt
need stars: The brand was the main
attraction.
But being a major star, Afeck comes
with a lot of baggage that many expect
will grate similar to how George
Clooney did in Joel Schumachers
1997 Batman and Robin a lm so
bad, its often been cited as a catalyst
for more serious, dramatic interpreta-
tions of superheros.
Its ironic because Affleck has
appeared to ape the career of Clooney
(a producer on Argo) by shifting
into directing and irting with poli-
tics. Afeck, 41, will take on Batman
at a slightly older age and in a more
established place in his career. But
hell be best to listen to another piece
of advice from Clooney: At least dont
let them put nipples on the Batman
suit.

compensate the moment she meat-tenderizes an attack-
ers skull, the movie starts to turn fun.
In the absence of sympathetic characters, a little humor
would have gone a long way here. But aside from a near-miss
sex scene in a bed shared by a corpse, theres practically
none on hand. Only when the reasons for the attack become
clear does the movie nd its feet, but Youre Next ends on
a high enough note that buzz on the way out of the theater
should work in its favor.
Youre Next, a Lionsgate release, is rated R by the
Motion Picture Association of America for strong bloody
violence, language and some sexuality/nudity. Running
time: 96 minutes.

SAVANNAH, Ga. Lawyers signed a
deal Friday to drop a discrimination
and sexual harassment lawsuit against
celebrity cook Paula Deen, who was
dumped by the Food Network and other
business partners after she said under
oath that she had used racial slurs in
the past.
A document filed in U.S. District
Court in Savannah said both sides
agreed to drop the lawsuit without any
award of costs or fees to any party. No
other details of the agreement were
released. The judge in the case had not
signed an order to nalize the dis-
missal.
Former employee Lisa Jackson last
year sued Deen and her brother, Bubba
Hiers, saying she
suffered from sexual
harassment and
racially offensive
talk and employ-
ment practices that
were unfair to black
workers during her
ve years as a man-
ager of Uncle
Bubbas Seafood
and Oyster House. Deen is co-owner of
the restaurant, which is primarily run
by her brother.
The dismissal deal came less than
two weeks after Judge William T.
Moore throw out the race discrimina-
tion claims, ruling Jackson, who is
white, had no standing to sue over
what she said was poor treatment of
black workers. He let Jacksons claims
of sexual harassment stand, but the
deal drops that also.
The lawsuit would be dismissed
with prejudice, which means it cant
be brought again with the same
claims.
While this has been a difcult time
for both my family and myself, I am
pleased that the judge dismissed the
race claims and I am looking forward to
getting this behind me, now that the
remaining claims have been resolved,
Deen said in a statement Friday.
Jackson also issued a statement that
backpedaled on assertions in her law-
suit that Deen held racist views.
I assumed that all of my complaints
about the workplace environment were
getting to Paula Deen, but I learned dur-
ing this matter that this was not the
case, Jackson said.

The latest Saints Row trades the series over-the-top urban warfare for an out-of-this-world
cyberpunk romp inspired by the likes of Tron and The Matrix.
By Derrik J. Lang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Saints Row, the shoot-em-up video
game franchise that debuted in 2006 as a
knockoff of Grand Theft Auto, has always
been unapologetically low-brow and self-
consciously silly. Saints Row IV
(Volition, for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3,
$59.99) doesnt veer from that pre-estab-
lished mindlessness. In fact, it drives right
through it, off a cliff and straight into outer
space.
The latest Saints Row trades the series
over-the-top urban warfare for an out-of-
this-world cyberpunk romp inspired by the
likes of Tron and The Matrix. Players
are again cast as the nameless boss of the
Third Street Saints gang. Since comman-
deering the streets of Steelport in Saints
Row: The Third, the protagonist has been
elected president of the United States.
Thats just the beginning of the ridicu-
lousness.
The heros rst term in ofce is short-
lived after the Shakespeare-quoting leader
of an extraterrestrial race called the Zin
blows the White House and all of Earth
to smithereens, trapping the foul-
mouthed president in a virtual rendition of
Steelport thats been populated with twisted
avatars, laser-blasting aliens, neon-hued
rides and very violent mascots.
The games environment will feel
extremely familiar to anyone who played
the previous Saints Row outing,
although the developers have updated the
chintzy landscape with diversions that
include stomping around the city in a lum-
bering mech suit and speeding across cyber
race tracks. Inside the virtual world, the
protagonist can now command superpow-
ers, too.
The gravity-defying abilities are basical-
ly clones of those found in such games as
InFamous or Prototype. While the addi-
tion of powers like telekinesis and super-
speed are addictive, they add absolutely
nothing to the plot. In fact, theyre dis-
tracting, leaving the stuff that made past
Saints Row editions fun, namely matter-
of-fact carjacking, pretty pointless.
Graphically, Saints Row IV is garishly
glitchy, an issue offset by the fact the game
is set within an unstable computer simula-
tion. Saints Row IV wont be very friend-
ly to newcomers of the franchise because
the bulk of the adventure is spent on reunit-
ing the gang and some other characters
from the previous three installments.
The most original addition to Saints
Rows IV is a doodad called the dup-step
gun. Once its powered up and the trigger is
pulled, the turntable-shaped weapon emits
electronic dance music and colorfully
explosive streams, inspiring nearby vehi-
cles to hydraulically bounce and passers-by
to pop and lock. Its so simple yet so satis-
fying to employ when facing groups of Zin.
While its plagued with problems,
Saints Row IV continues down its prede-
cessors path as outrageously mindless fun,
the equivalent of interactive junk food. Its
not as thought-provoking as a BioShock
or as polished as an Uncharted. Its just a
yummy bag of gummy worms to gnaw on
for a month before Grand Theft Auto V is
released. Two-and-a-half stars out of four.
Saints Row IV goes off the deep end

Americas elderly population is living
longer and proving to be more active
than their predecessors. Little House
dees the stereotypes of traditional
senior centers because todays seniors
arent what they were 30 years ago,
said Peter Olson, 44, director of Little
House.
Its a center for active adults.
Instead of 75 and older, we have more
55 and older coming in for classes,
Olson said.
The Menlo Park center, too, isnt
what one might automatically picture.
We want walking into Little House
to be like walking into your friends
house, Olson said.
The entrance mimics a welcoming
living room, adorned with art, books,
cozy chairs and a friendly volunteer.
Its hard to wander through Little
House without meeting a visitor who
is gleeful about their days venture.
Little House focuses on enhancing
the quality of life; because people
deserve more than extended lifetimes,
they deserve a sense of fulllment and
passion, Olson said.
One of our things is vital aging.
You need certain components in living
a vital life: tness, nutrition, social-
ization and part of that socialization is
friendship, intimacy and a sense of
purpose. Its also brain stimulation,
mental stimulation, Olson said.
Little House offers multiple types of
tness classes: high- and low-impact
aerobics, zumba, yoga, pilates and
more. They cater to students of multi-
ple capabilities, particularly for those
who may not feel comfortable entering
a traditional fast-paced gym, Olson
said.
But visitors do more than exercise;
theyre on the move. They organize
group vacations and theres an upcom-
ing trip to Africa, Olson said.
For those who prefer to stay closer
to home, well-known authors and
docents give lectures and there are
weekly ballroom dances. Members can
also receive practical help with taxes
and legal issues relating to aging and
make use of a computer lab.
Studio art classes and facilities are
open to the public for little cost. Both
a ceramics and sculpture studio brought
husband and wife duo Mary Louise and
Larmie Froese, 71 and 76 respectively,
down from South San Francisco to fre-
quent Little House and continue their
passion for gem and stone carving
well into their retirement.
Katherine Abu-Romia, 71, was
thrilled to learn new skills she was
curious about but feared she was too old
to try. She now participates in activi-
ties she wouldnt be able to do if it
werent for Little House, Abu-Romia
said.
Marlyn Johnson has been part of the
Little House community for more than
20 years. When her mother developed
Alzheimers, her father would take her
to socialize at Little House. At the
time, Johnson worked as a teacher in
Palo Alto and would rendezvous with
her parents for lunch at Little House.
It was also an opportunity to check
on [my parents], and I see that happen-
ing even today. Its one of the oppor-
tunities, when you have an older per-
son, to just make sure things are going
okay. Its really nice, Johnson said.
Johnson, now 82 years old, contin-
ues to frequent Little House and said
she has lunch there nearly every day of
the week. But its not just for the sen-
timent; Little House serves tasty
healthy food and is well within her
limited budget, Johnson said.
Their largest portion is just $4.50;
cheaper and healthier than any fast-
food restaurant, Olson said.
As a subsidiary of Peninsula
Volunteers, Little Houses kitchen
serves as the hub for their Meals on
Wheels program. But they do more
than deliver food, said Marilyn Baker-
Venturini, director of the Peninsula
Volunteers Meals on Wheels.
Sometimes we are their only con-
tact in the course of the day. Were
checking on them ... making sure that
theyre well, giving them that little
bit of stimulation. Having that con-
versation and make them realize that
they are not forgotten in this world,
Baker-Venturini said.
Through Little House, Olson reaches
out to a population he fears is becom-
ing more isolated. Although the inux
of high-tech companies moving near-
by is benecial to the area, local busi-
nesses and facilities are catering to the
new, younger population and seniors
are nding themselves left out. Olson
said.
After a certain point, you kind of
get pushed aside and history moves
on. The things that generations before
us did are forgotten about. So thats
something that I would like to
achieve, that theyre not forgotten
about, Olson said.
Little House is hosting a free Senior
Showcase information fair from 9 a.m.
to 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 24. The public
event, sponsored in part by the Daily
Journal, includes 40 exhibitors from
all over the Bay Area, free document

ping off kids and equipment.
It actually saves the tree, provides
several more parking spaces (in lieu of
additional grass for warm ups) and is
definitely a win-win for the parks
patrons, Boland wrote in an email to
the Daily Journal.
Councilman Ron Collins was also
surprised to learn the tree will remain
even though he had conceded at a past
meeting that it might have to go for
the greater good of the park design. He
is hopeful the new plan appeases the
council and the public.
This has certainly been microde-
signed and had a lot of community
input, he said.
Crestview is a 1.1-acre park located
on Crestview Drive north of Brittan
Avenue. Many residents during the ren-
ovation processes have described its
charm as a neighborhood park rather
than one that draws from throughout
the city like the larger Highlands Park.
The revised concept also keeps the
basketball area the same size but uses
colorful surfacing and new markings.
The rest room will be renovated and a
small bleacher or goal storage might
be added to the hillside. Staff is also
looking for more at areas and hard
surfaces for the local astronomers.
The latest plan was met with enthusi-
asm with some park neighbors, many
who had mainly worried about the
installation of synthetic grass.
We are very pleased that the city has
responded to the concerns of the citi-
zens and has come up with a design
that preserves Crestview Park for the
benet of all of San Carlos, said Bob
