After San Mateo Mayor David

they would not recommend that

Or did they?
Lim and Ross are on the citys

supporting the $130 million bond

The measure is on the November
ballot and proposes to add capaci-

U.S. House Speaker John Boehner speaks to the press after a
House Republican meeting on Capitol Hill.

WASHINGTON Moving closer to
the brink of a government shutdown,
House Republicans vowed Thursday
they wont simply accept the stopgap
legislation that is likely to remain
after Senate Democrats strip away a
plan to dismantle President Barack
Obamas health care law.
The deant posture sets the stage for
weekend drama on Capitol Hill after
the Senate on Friday sends the frac-
tious House a straightforward bill to
keep the government operating
through Nov. 15
rather than part-
ly closing down
at midnight
Monday.
Speaker John
Boehner of Ohio
and several rank-
a n d - f i l e
Republicans said
the House sim-
ply wont accept
a clean spend-
ing measure, even though thats been
the norm in Congress on dozens of
occasions since the 1995-96 govern-
ment closures that bruised Republicans
and strengthened the hand of
Democratic President Bill Clinton.
I dont see that happening,
Boehner said. Still, he declared that I
have no interest in a government shut-
down and he doesnt expect one to
occur on Tuesday.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of
Nevada said the Democratic-led cham-
ber will not relent.
The Senate will never pass a bill
that guts the Affordable Care Act,
Reid declared.
A partial government shutdown
would keep hundreds of thousands of
House Republicans vow to not simply accept stopgap legislation

However, Matsumoto, 70, will
still appear on the ballot and her

Councilwoman suspends her

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
If you make your way to Odd
Fellows Hall, located on Half
Moon Bays Main Street, on the
second Saturday of the month,
youll be treated to a night of silly
antics and humorous scenarios.
For the cozy, intimate second
story of Odd Fellows Hall is where
Blue Blanket Improv calls home.
Marc Samuels, 46, founded Blue
Blanket Improv in 2001 to create a
challenge for himself, and others,
and to force himself to keep his
wit and mindset sharp. Samuels
passion for improv started in
Southern California, growing up
in the San Fernando Valley, where
he was a part of the JFK High
School drama program.
Improv interested me because I
liked to mess with people,
Samuels said. Even in regular
shows, I might change a line to
see how the other people would
react.
Samuels eventually moved to
San Francisco in 2000, and later to
Half Moon Bay in 2001, and he
started teaching improv classes

Officials question
county investment fund
School and city officials were
scrambling the week of
Sept. 27, 2008 to fig-
ure out the ripple effect
of the national finan-
cial fallout and
whether losses in a county invest-
ment fund would decrease local
credit ratings.
There were more questions than
answers at the County Investment
Fund Oversight Committee meeting
that week. The County Investment
Fund is a pool of money from
school districts, special districts
and cities, managed by the county
treasurer. The fund lost approximate-
ly $150 million, or approximately 5
percent of the $2.6 billion portfo-
lios principal due in part to its
holdings in Lehman Brothers
Securities.
WaMu becomes
biggest bank to fail
As the debate over a $700 billion
bank bailout raged on in
Washington, one of the nations
largest banks Washington Mutual
Inc. collapsed under the weight of
its enormous bad bets on the mort-
gage market the week of Sept. 27,
2008.
The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corp. seized WaMu on Thursday of
that week, and then sold the thrifts
banking assets to JPMorgan Chase
& Co. for $1.9 billion.
Seattle-based WaMu,
which was founded in
1889, was the largest
bank to fail by far in the
countrys history. Its $307
billion in assets eclipse those of
Continental Illinois National Bank,
which failed in 1984 with $40 bil-
lion in assets; adjusted for 2008 dol-
lars, its assets totaled $67.7 bil-
lion. IndyMac, seized in July, had
$32 billion in assets.
State budget
slows local transit
The state budget was dealing local
transit agencies a major blow the
week of Sept. 27, 2008, cutting
funding by nearly two-thirds more
than what was expected earlier in the
year.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger
signed the most overdue budget in
the states history. Proposition 42,
which takes gas taxes to make trans-
portation improvements, was
untouched by massive cuts, but fund-
ing to local transit agencies such as
Bay Area Rapid Transit, Caltrain and
SamTrans was diverted at record low
levels.
Caltrain, which runs Peninsula rail
service from Gilroy to San
Francisco, could have received
$11.8 million from the state that
year. It received $3.7 million.
SamTrans, which runs bus and para-
transit service in San
Mateo County, could have
received $13.7 million but
the state only allocated
$4.3 million.
Superintendent recommends
denying charter school plan
The San Mateo Union High School
District superintendent came out
against a proposal to open a tech-
nology-based school serving 800
students in sixth through eighth
grades the week of Sept. 27, 2008.
Insufficient information about edu-
cational programs, finances and a
location for the charter school
known as Magnolia topped
Superintendent David Millers con-
cerns in a recommendation to deny
the charter.
Among the educational concerns
listed were the lack of a guidance
program; little innovative, creative
or powerful instructional strategies;
no physical education standards; and
unclear graduation requirements,
according to the resolution. The
budget was a major concern listed by
the district.

nally printed five years ago this week. It

Journal.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MENLO PARK Google has quietly
retooled the closely guarded formula running
its Internet search engine to give better
answers to the increasingly complex ques-
tions posed by Web surfers.
The overhaul came as part of an update
called Hummingbird that Google Inc. has
gradually rolled out in the past month with-
out disclosing the modications.
The changes could have a major impact on
trafc to websites. Hummingbird represents
the most dramatic alteration to Googles
search engine since it revised the way it
indexes websites three years ago as part of a
redesign called Caffeine, according to
Amit Singhal, a senior vice president for the
company. He estimates that the redesign will
affect the analysis of about 90 percent of the
search requests that Google gets.
Any reshufing of Googles search rank-
ings can have sweeping ramifications
because they steer so much of the Internets
trafc. Google elds about two of out every
three search requests in the U.S. and handles
an even larger volume in some parts of
Europe. The changes could also drive up the
price of Google ads tied to search requests if
websites whose rankings are demoted under
the new system feel they have to buy the
marketing messages to attract trafc.
The search ads and other commercial
pitches related to Web content account for
most of Googles revenue, which is expected
to approach $60 billion this year.
Google disclosed the existence of the new
search formula Thursday at an event held in
the Menlo Park, Calif., garage where CEO
Larry Page and fellow co-founder Sergey
Brin started the company 15 years ago.
Google celebrates its birthday on Sept. 27
each year, even though the company was
incorporated a few weeks earlier. The compa-
ny is now based in Mountain View at a
sprawling complex located about seven
miles from the 1,900-square-foot home
where Page and Brin paid $1,700 per month
to rent the garage and a bedroom. The co-
founders landlord was Susan Wojcicki, who
is now a top Google executive and Brins
sister-in-law.
Wojcicki sold the home to Google in 2006
and it is now maintained as a monument to
the companys humble beginnings.
Googles renovations to its search engine
havent triggered widespread complaints
from other websites yet, suggesting that the
revisions havent resulted in a radical reshuf-
ing in how websites rank in the recommen-
dations. The Caffeine update spurred a loud
outcry because it explicitly sought to weed
out websites that tried to trick Googles
search engine into believing their content
was related to common search requests. After
Caffeine kicked in, hundreds of websites that
consistently won a coveted spot near the top
of Googles search results had been relegated
to the back pages or exiled completely.
Hummingbird is primarily aimed at giving
Googles search engine a better grasp at
understanding concepts instead of mere
words, Singhal said.

RETOOLED SEARCH ENGINE:
Google has completed the most dramatic
overhaul of its inuential search engine in
three years with an update called
Hummingbird.The new formula changes
the way that the Internets most popular
search engine analyzes about 90 percent
of the requests that it gets.
QUIET CHANGE:
The different approach to search gradually
rolled out during the past month. Google

existence of the new formula at event held

The renovations could have ripple effects

The best and the brightest salsa makers in
the area will gather in Redwood City tomor-
row and that includes two-time winner Greg
Matonis, while the delicious and dangerous
combination of beer and bacon will hit San
Mateo for the rst time ever.
Matonis, 58, lives and breathes salsa and
rst began making his own years ago. This
is his sixth year at the sixth annual, admis-
sion free Redwood City Salsa Festival.
With the amount I eat, it costs too much
to buy, said the Redwood City resident of
34 years. I can eat a huge jar for breakfast
or a snack. Eating it is the ultimate goal.
The event takes place throughout down-
town Redwood City, with multiple stages of
live entertainment and a salsa competition
and tasting.
He came away with best hot sauce the rst
year of the event and won the peoples
choice award in the second year. He is going
for the mild competition this year because
he couldnt nd any good hot peppers this
past year and that there is less competition
in the mild category.
So whats the secret sauce?
Not so secret, Matonis said. He uses the
same 10-year-old family recipe his wife
came up with each year, but he continues
perfecting it each year.
I have a recipe right down to a T, he
said. Its sort of secret recipe, but its not a
difficult recipe. Its just vegetables and
theres not a secret ingredient. I sometimes
add a few more peppers or onions to get a
higher yield.
Although his recipe does not have a
name, his nickname is The Spaniard.
Chefs prepare everything on site, putting
in a couple hours to prepare their salsa.
Matonis prepares nine gallons of salsa and
said most years he runs completely out by
the end of the day.
What does he look forward to the most?
Winning peoples choice this year, he
said.
This year, there will be a $500 prize and
award for peoples choice salsa, $250 prize
and award for best mild salsa, $250 prize
and award for best hot salsa and $150 prize
and award for best-decorated booth. There
will be a public salsa tasting from noon-5
p.m.
Multiple stages will feature salsa and jazz
music. Local restaurants will serve food as
well. The festival features public tequila
tasting, free hands-on art projects, a chil-
drens play area complete with bounce hous-
es and more. The event runs from noon-8
p.m.
I enjoy making it, Matonis said. It
gives you a kick when people love your
salsa too.
Bacon & Brew
In San Mateo, Bacon & Brew Festival
comes about as a result of the San Mateo
Chamber of Commerces effort to develop
something that would bring awareness to
the city.
The rst annual Bacon & Brew Festival
is a unique community event for young and
old alike, said Cheryl Angeles, president
and CEO of the San Mateo Area Chamber of
Commerce. People should come to the fes-
tival in beautiful Central Park, if they love
good food, especially bacon and great craft-
ed micro-brews.
Dishes include truffled bacon nachos,
bacon wrapped tri-tip, pork belly barbecue
tacos, chocolate brownies topped with
bacon and caramel, bacon avored pastries,
bacon pupusas and more.
Local bands will be performing, includ-
ing Big Wave, Dutch Uncle and College of
San Mateos Jazz Combo. The Asiya
Shriners group is bringing a dunk tank to
benet its Shriners Hospitals for Children.
The event will be on the baseball eld at
Central Park on the corner of Fifth Avenue
and El Camino Real.
Tickets are $10. Admission includes festi-
val entry and a large beer, glass of wine or a
soft drink for those under 21. Only ticket
holders with wristband receive the free
drink. Those 12 and under are free and 17-
year-olds and under must be accompanied by
a ticket holding adult.
To order tickets, visit sanmateocham-
ber.org/bbf, call 401-2440, or stop by the
San Mateo Area Chamber ofce at 1700 S.
El Camino Real, Suite 108 in San Mateo. It
runs from noon-6 p.m.

Insurance agent
imprisoned for stealing
$300,000 in premiums
AMillbrae insurance agent who
stole approximately $300,000
in premiums, leaving several
customers filing claims against
nonexistent policies, was sen-
tenced to four years in prison.
Irene Koh, 54, was also ordered
to pay back the stolen money to
Farmers Insurance Company and
eight victims.
Koh pleaded no contest in July
to five felony counts of embez-
zlement and admitted causing
material fraud.
Prosecutors say between 2004
and February 2007, Koh abused
her position of trust by accepting
hundreds of thousands of dollars
in insurance premiums and spend-
ing them instead on a lavish
lifestyle including a Tiburon
home with a $15,000 monthly
mortgage.
Koh avoided detection through
lies and tactics like changing
customers addresses to divert
mail sent from Farmers, accord-
ing to the District Attorneys
Office.
Prosecutors also said several
customers suffered substantial
out-of-pocket losses when they
filed claims against policies that
turned out to be nonexistent.
Koh had been in custody on
$350,000 bail and has credit of
305 days against her four-year
prison term.
Local brief

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The nations
top intelligence official on
Thursday sidestepped questions
from a senator about whether the
National Security Agency has
ever used Americans cellphone
signals to collect information on
their whereabouts that would
allow tracking of the movements
of individual callers.
Asked twice by Sen. Ron
Wyden, D-Ore., if NSA had ever
collected or made plans to collect
such data, NSA chief Gen. Keith
Alexander answered both times
by reading from a letter provided
to senators who had asked the
same question last summer. He
also cited a classified version of
the letter that was sent to sena-
tors and said, What I dont want
to do ... is put out in an unclassi-
fied forum anything thats classi-
fied.
Wyden promised to keep ask-
i ng.
I believe this is something the
American people have a right to
know, whether NSA has ever col-
lected or made plans to collect
cell site information, Wyden
said.
The testy exchange at a Senate
Intelligence Committee hearing
illustrates the wider tension that
has grown between the public and
the U.S. intelligence community,
following disclosures by Edward
Snowden, a 29-year-old former
systems analyst on contract to
the NSA, about the extensive
NSA collection of telephone and
email records of millions of
Americans.
The panels bipartisan leader-
ship used the hearing to promote
their version of legislation to
change the Federal Intelligence
Surveillance Act. The lawmakers
seek to trim NSAs authority to
access and analyze U.S. phone
records and provide new protec-
tions to Americans privacy.
They also want to broaden the
governments spying powers to
allow monitoring of terror sus-
pects who travel to the U.S. after
being tracked overseas by the
NSA.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-
Calif., chairwoman of the com-
mittee, said the legislation would
strictly limit access to the ...
phone metadata records, express-
ly prohibit the collection of the
content of phone calls, and limit
the amount of time such U.S.
phone call data could be kept.
Such records show the date and
length of calls, and the numbers
dialed.
But Feinsteins proposed legis-
lation would not stop the bulk
collection of telephone and email
records. A separate bipartisan
group of four senators, including
Wyden, unveiled legislation ear-
lier this week to end those bulk
collections.
Official sidesteps queries on cellphone locations

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry
Brown on Thursday signed a bill
that will temporarily require over-
time pay for domestic workers in
California, after he vetoed a broad-
er measure last year that critics
said would have opened the door
for government regulation of part-
time baby-sitting.
Under the new law, which takes
effect in January, domestic work-
ers must be paid time-and-a-half if
they work more than nine hours in
a day or more than 45 hours in a
week. Baby sitters are exempt
from the mandate.
The overtime requirement will
end in January 2017 unless
renewed by the Legislature.
State law requires overtime
pay for domestic workers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FRESNO With the harvest in
full swing on the West Coast, farm-
ers in California and other states
say they cant nd enough people
to pick high value crops such as
grapes, peppers, apples and pears.
In some cases, workers have
walked off elds in the middle of
harvest, lured by offers of better
pay or easier work elsewhere.
The shortage and competition
for workers means labor expenses
have climbed, harvests are getting
delayed and less fruit and vegetable
products are being picked, prompt-
ing some growers to say their
income is suffering. Experts say,
however, the shortage is not
expected to affect prices for con-
sumers. But farmworkers, whose
incomes are some of the lowest in
the nation, have beneted, their
wages jumping in California to $2
to $3 over the $8 hourly minimum
wage and even more for those
working piece rate.
Farmers face labor shortages in the fields
I believe this is something the American people
have a right to know, whether NSA has ever collected
or made plans to collect cell site information.
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore.

early intervention for youth.
The joint effort will launch its first
youth mental health first aid training Oct.
1 using some of the money. The event is a
public education program introducing
school staff to the unique risk factors and
warning signs of youth mental health
problems. The training also addresses
early intervention and teaches how to help
a young person in crisis or experiencing a
mental health or substance use challenge.
This first class will include primarily
school-based counselors but is designed
for any adult member of a school commu-
ni t y.
About 20 percent of youth, aged 13 to 18
years old, experience mental health prob-
lems in a given year with suicide as the
third leading cause of death for youth
between the ages of 15 and 24.
The Board of Supervisors allocated the

Leading local news coverage on the Peninsula
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE
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

Funeral Etiquette Advice:
Show Up, Be Brief, Listen

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Days before
the debut of new online insurance
markets, a couple of last-minute
technical glitches with President
Barack Obamas health care law
are making supporters anxious
and giving opponents a new line
of attack.
The administration said
Thursday that small business own-
ers who want to use insurance mar-
kets designed especially for them
will have to wait until sometime
in November before they can n-
ish their sign-ups. They still can
start shopping right away on Oct.
1. And even with the delay, they
can get coverage for their employ-
ees by Jan. 1, when the law takes
full effect.
In a potentially more signicant
delay affecting the laws larger
insurance market for individuals,
the administration quietly told
Hispanic groups on Wednesday
that the Spanish-language version
of the healthcare.gov website will
not be ready to handle online
enrollments for a few weeks. An
estimated 10 million Latinos are
eligible for coverage, and 4 mil-
lion of them speak Spanish prima-
rily.
Its been at least two years
since weve known that Latinos
are a primary target for enrollment
through the Affordable Care Act,
so we would have hoped that the
administration would have the
rollout ready on Day 1, said
Jennifer Ngandu, health care pol-
icy director for the National
Council of La Raza. That said, she
added that her group wont object
if it takes a few more weeks to get
things right.
Meanwhile, a politically power-
ful small business lobby that
unsuccessfully sued to overturn
Obamacare said the enrollment
delay for employers strengthens
the case for hitting pause on the
entire law, one of the strategies
now being pursued by congres-
sional Republicans.
Every step in the implementa-
tion process has seen delays and
setbacks, Kevin Kuhlman, a top
ofcial of the National Federation
of Independent Business, said in a
statement. This is starting to
seem like a parody; unfortunately,
it is extremely serious.
New state insurance markets for
individuals who dont have cover-
age on the job, and separate ones
for small businesses with up to
100 workers, are a key part of
Obamas health care overhaul.
Health law online sign-up delayed for small firms

WASHINGTON The FBI has
been using drones to support its
law enforcement operations since
2006 and has spent more than $3
million on the unmanned aircraft,
the Justice Departments internal
watchdog said Thursday.
The disclosure came in a new
report by the Justice Departments
inspector general, Michael
Horowitz, who revealed that the
department also has awarded $1.26
million to at least seven local
police departments and nonprot
organization for drones.
In addition, the IG said another
Justice Department component,
the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives, plans to
use drones to support future opera-
tions. To date, the ATF has spent
almost $600,000, the IG report
stated.
From 2004 to May 2013, the
Justice Department spent almost
$5 million on the unmanned air-
craft.
In June, then-FBI Director
Robert Mueller told Congress that
the FBI occasionally uses the
unmanned aerial vehicles but was
developing guidelines in anticipa-
tion of issues that will arise as
they become more omnipresent.
In one instance earlier this year,
the FBI used drones at night during
a six-day hostage standoff in
Alabama.
In a letter in July to Sen. Rand
Paul, R-Ky., the FBI revealed it
had used drones 10 times since
2006 for surveillance in kidnap-
pings, search and rescue missions,
and drug and fugitive investiga-
tions. Among them was last win-
ters standoff between authorities
and Jimmy Lee Dykes, who was
shot to death after holding a 5-
year-old boy hostage in an under-
ground bunker in Alabama, the let-
ter said.

LARGO, Maryland With just
ve days to go before Americans
can begin signing up for health
care under his signature law,
President Barack Obama on
Thursday ridiculed Republican
opponents for crazy doomsday
predictions of the impact and fore-
cast that even those who didnt
vote for him are going to enroll.
With polls showing many
Americans still skeptical of the
law known as Obamacare, the
president went back to the basics
of explaining how nearly 50 mil-
lion uninsured Americans will be
able to buy coverage in new gov-
ernment-run exchanges while
mocking Republicans for trying
to block its implementation.
The closer we get, the more des-
perate they get, Obama argued.
The Republican party has just
spun itself up around this issue,
Obama said. And the fact is the
Republicans biggest fear at this
point is not that Affordable Care
Act will fail. What theyre worried
about is its going to succeed.
House Republicans are insert-
ing provisions that undermine the
health care law into a short-term
spending measure needed to avoid
a government shutdown on Oct. 1
and into legislation that would
increase the governments bor-
rowing ability, which the
Treasury says will hit its limit in
mid-October.

OPINION 9
Friday Sept. 27, 2013 THEDAILYJOURNAL
Letter to the editor
F
or more than six years, education
ofcials have talked about ways to
solve the overcrowding situation in
Foster City schools. Asignicant portion
of that time was spent on trying to nd an
appropriate location. Would a public park
be an appropriate location? City ofcials
said no. Would a private shopping center
be an appropriate location? The communi-
ty took issue and the district decided no.
Ultimately, a Foster City-based commit-
tee formed to nd consensus on the issue
determined the best path forward would be
to add capacity and another grade level at
Bowditch Middle School in Foster City.
The discussion then turned to how the dis-
trict would pay for the new construction.
Measure L, the $175 million bond passed
in 2008, could have been used for land pur-
chase but not the additional cost of a new
school. In addition, Measure L was known
to have not covered the entire scope of the
districts facility and technology needs.
Still, there are projects on the Measure L
list that have not been completed though
there is approximately $70 million left of
it.
Measure P seeks to cover the cost of con-
structing a new and expanded Bowditch
Middle School while also addressing sever-
al other district needs including enroll-
ment, technology and loosening up some
money for the general fund through solar
power that can be put into the classroom.
Its main benet is addressing the Foster
City school overcrowding issue which
in itself is no small task after years of dis-
cussion. It is a $130 million bond measure,
and the bulk of it about $60 million-$80
million will go toward Bowditch.
Measure P will pay for about $18 million
in renovations at Knolls Elementary
School, which has been used off and on as a
temporary school during other renovations
for years and is now leased out. About $30
million can be allocated over short periods
to pay for new technology and $18 million
can be spent on energy efciency, includ-
ing solar panels, which will lower the dis-
tricts utility payments and allow for more
money to ow into the classroom.
Make no mistake, Measure P is not per-
fect. And those who take issue with it have
valid points. With some schools partic-
ularly those in San Mateo still left with
signicant project needs, why exactly is
the district focusing so much money on
Foster City? How exactly will Knolls be
used once it is renovated? Does it mean that
the district will recalibrate boundary lines
on the west side of El Camino Real? Why
invest in technology that is ever-evolv-
ing? And why invest so much in solar? In
reverse order, solar panels have an initial
costly outlay but have proven to save
money in the long run when done right.
With so many districts enacting solar pro-
grams, it makes sense to check out best
practices to see what will give the district
the most bang for its buck. As far as tech-
nology, the district is smart in agreeing to
shorter bonds for those so the technology
can be updated and the payment period is
shorter. The district has yet to commit to
what it will do with Knolls but ofcials
have oated the idea of having it be solely
transitional kindergarten or a magnet
school essentially leaving school
boundaries as they are. Project needs in San
Mateo schools have largely been met, but
there are still needs. And there is still
Measure L money and enough wiggle room
in Measure P to ensure San Mateo schools
get their needs met. But thats a lot of ifs.
It is inherently critical, however, to look
at the larger picture. The San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School District is the
countys largest. Because it serves two
cities with a total population of 140,000,
it often has to balance the needs of several
unique communities in both cities. The rev-
enue it receives is largely based on its stu-
dent population drawn from both cities and
it has several unique opportunities through
its magnet school program to move chil-
dren according to their interests. Having
San Mateo children go to Foster City
schools has not been an option in recent
years because of the overcrowding issue.
Having a reconstructed Bowditch would
loosen up that issue and allow for new
opportunities.
But there is a certain amount of trust
involved in the decision to vote yes on
Measure P. If you live in Foster City, this
decision is easy. There will be more room
for your students. If you live in San Mateo,
you may feel as if there are too many
unknowns. But the strength of the overall
district is key. With the Foster City over-
crowding situation addressed, the district
will not have to face decisions that could
have a deleterious effect on students and
can move on to other issues. It could be a
rework of its magnet program or a move
toward having one location be a transition-
al kindergarten school. We doubt the dis-
trict will look at changing boundaries west
of El Camino simply because it is abun-
dantly clear it is an unpopular idea.
The district is charged with the task of
ensuring that the needs of every one of its
communities are being met. At this time,
solving the Foster City overcrowding issue
is a priority but that doesnt mean other
areas are not important. It simply means
the district can move forward on solving
this one while engaging the community in
its next steps.
Overall, Measure P will have a communi-
ty benet for both San Mateo and Foster
City at a cost of $19 a year per $100,000
assessed value of a property. It deserves
your support.
Downtown artwork
Editor,
Hooray for Lorna Watt and other artists
participating to beautify downtown San
Mateo. Their creative, picturesque work is
fantastic! I have wondered for some time
who was responsible for this unique and
creative art. It is wonderful seeing these
yarnbombs and murals displayed through-
out downtown. This is what our city needs
more of. The talent and workmanship
involved with these projects is incredible.
Taking those eyesore utility boxes and
making them good-looking paintings of
bright murals is superb.
I was unaware of the squid until reading
the article Downtown gets makeover in
the Sept. 23 edition of the Daily Journal
and took a walk to Tilton Avenue and B
Street. What an exquisite, detailed, breath-
taking creation. It was a shock when realiz-
ing the complete tree and details were all
prepared using her yarnbombing tech-
niques. Everyone needs to take time and see
all these unique art displays. I hope you
appreciate the luster brought to our down-
town. I look forward to seeing her future
artwork. Hopefully, everything will sur-
vive the upcoming weather and not be
ruined by grafti or other destruction.

A billion dollars to
help homeless vets
just sitting unused
Los Angeles Daily News
I
ts a national embarrassment that so
many of the military men and
women who served in wars overseas
come back and dont have homes of their
own or even places to sleep. California
voters want to help veterans get decent
homes, but their good intentions have
fallen flat because of the governments
ineffectiveness.
In 2008, California voters passed a
$900 million bond for veterans home
loans. Those funds, administered by the
states Veterans Affairs Department, have
gone practically untouched because
would-be veteran homeowners picked up
loans with better interest rates on the
open market.
Meantime, nearly half of $500 million
from a similar 2000 voter-approved bond
measure is still unspent.
Thats more than a billion dollars
meant to help homeless vets but sitting
idle. Its time for it to be repurposed.
Thats why Gov. Jerry Brown should
sign AB 639. The bill, by Assembly
Speaker John Perez, would ask voters to
decide, come election day in June 2014,
whether to redirect $600 million of those
unused funds toward building or rehabili-
tating housing for the neediest veterans
ones who often find themselves living
on city streets, shuffling between shel-
ters and going without the mental health
services they need. Voters approved the
bonds and must also approve any changes
to them.
Among other things, this change would
aid long-term housing facilities for veter-
ans who need to get on their feet, by pro-
viding job and health services at their
homes.
Right now the bond money can be
spent only toward the purchase of single-
family homes and farms. But the veterans
who are lucky enough to afford homes are
looking elsewhere for help.
The Center for Investigative Reporting
found a more than 3 percent gap between
the market rate and the Veterans Affairs
Departments in October 2011, when pri-
vate home loan rates fell to 2 percent.
Rates were lowered, but all the while,
homeless vets, many just off tours in
Afghanistan and Iraq, struggled to find
places to live.
Proponents of the bill say the cost of
paying off the current bonds about $25
million annually would be offset by
easing the strain on social services, espe-
cially in Southern California, where half
of the states nearly 16,500 homeless
veterans reside.
Their logic is substantiated by a report
by the Economic Roundtable and the Los
Angeles Homeless Services Authority
that estimates a homeless person living
in a place where they can access support-
ive services costs the public 79 percent
less than they do on the streets.
It would also give priority to funds that
can be leveraged. With President Obamas
commitment to eliminate chronic veteran
homelessness by 2015, more money is
likely to be made available to such pro-
grams.
Brown should sign this bill now. Too
many military men and women who have
represented the United States in troubled
times, in hostile situations and with fam-
ilies waiting back home, are in need of
new beginnings.
This would be the governors salute to
them.

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Upbeat news about
jobs and retailers helped the Standard
& Poors 500 index snap its longest
losing streak of the year on Thursday.
U.S. unemployment claims fell
close to their lowest level in six
years, the government reported, and
J.C. Penney and Bed Bath & Beyond
delivered encouraging news.
The positive trends outweighed wor-
ries about a potential government
shutdown in Washington next week.
Those concerns had led the S&P 500
index to five consecutive days of
declines, the indexs worst run in
2013.
That ended Thursday when the S&P
500 index rose six points, or 0.4 per-
cent, to close at 1,698.67.
Theres a little bit of a bounce
here, said Robert Pavlik, chief mar-
ket strategist at Banyan Partners. It
may be a little bit of bargain hunt-
ing.
The broad index is less than two per-
cent below its all-time high from
Sept. 18.
U.S. economic growth rose to an
annual rate of 2.5 percent from April
through June, the Commerce
Department reported Thursday. That
was an increase from the 1.1 percent
growth in the previous quarter.
Applications for unemployment
benefits fell 5,000 to a seasonally
adjusted 305,000 last week, the gov-
ernment said, the fewest since
September 2007, three months before
the Great Recession began.
While the economic news was
encouraging, it wasnt spectacular.
Some analysts said it justified the
Federal Reserves surprise decision
last week to keep up its economic
stimulus.
The U.S. central bank has been buy-
ing $85 billion of bonds a month to
keep long-term interest rates low,
which has encouraged borrowing and
driven up stock prices.
Wall Street had expected the Fed to
start easing back on its stimulus.
Its fair to say that the Fed got it
right by delaying, the cuts to stimu-
lus, said Ron Florance, deputy chief
investment officer for Wells Fargo
Private Bank. Growth is uninterest-
ing and subdued.
Growth-sensitive retail stocks were
among the best performers in the 10
industry groups that make up the S&P
500 index.
The group got a lift from the trou-
bled department store owner J.C.
Penney, which said it was pleased with
its turnaround efforts.
The companys stock ended the day
up 30 cents, or 3 percent, at $10.42.
Shares, however, fell more than 5
percent in after-markets trading fol-
lowing the companys announcement
that it planned to sell up to 96.6 mil-
lion shares of common stock in a pub-
lic offering. It was the latest indica-
tion the chain is looking to shore up
its cash reserves.
Bed Bath & Beyond also gave the
industry a boost. The stock climbed
$3.32, or 4 percent, to $77.54 after
the company said its quarterly prot
increased 11 percent.
Other stock indexes rose. The Dow
Jones industrial average climbed 55
points, or 0.4 percent, to 15,328. The
Nasdaq climbed 26 points, or 0.7 per-
cent, to 3,787.
In government bond trading, the
yield on the 10-year note edged up to
2.64 percent from 2.63 percent late
Wednesday.
Encouraging news on jobs, retailers lifts stocks
Its fair to say that the Fed got it right by
delaying. ... Growth is uninteresting and subdued.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The U.S. economy grew
at a 2.5 percent annual rate from April
through June, an improvement from the rst
three months of the year. But economists are
worried that growth may now be slowing.
The Commerce Department said Thursday
that its nal look at economic growth in the
spring was unchanged from a prior estimate
made last month.
However, the components of growth were
altered slightly.
Businesses added a bit less to their stock-
piles and exports did not grow as fast as pre-
viously thought. These downward revisions
were balanced by slightly stronger spending
by state and local governments.
Many analysts believe growth is slowing
to a sluggish rate at or below 2 percent in the
current quarter. Economists had initially
hoped growth would improve in the second
half of the year.
If economists are correct that economic
activity slowed this summer, it would mark
the third quarter in the last four that growth
rates have been 2 percent or lower. Growth in
the fourth quarter of 2012 nearly stalled out
at a barely discernible 0.1 percent rate and
then improved slightly to 1.1 percent
growth in the January-March quarter.
The government initially estimated activ-
ity in the April-June quarter at a lackluster
1.7 percent but a big narrowing of the trade
decit reecting stronger export sales over-
seas helped boost growth to 2.5 percent in
the governments second look.
EBay to buy payments
company Braintree for $800M
NEW YORK E-commerce giant eBay
Inc. reached a deal to buy online and mobile
payments technology provider Braintree for
$800 million in cash.
The move comes as eBays PayPal unit
works to evolve from its roots as an online
payments provider, expanding its ofine,
mobile and online offerings to stores,
restaurants and other business.
Braintrees payments technology is used
by popular startups such as vacation rentals
site Airbnb, cab-hailing app Uber and
restaurant reservations site OpenTable. The
company charges businesses a fee of 2.9
percent plus 30 cents per each transaction,
and expects to process about $12 billion in
payments this year.
San Jose, Calif.-based eBay Inc. said
Thursday that it will operate Braintree as a
separate business. Bill Ready, the CEO of
the Chicago-based company, will report to
PayPal President David Marcus.
Braintree will continue to do what its
currently doing, Marcus said, adding that
PayPal will help the company to grow and
to expand internationally. EBay said that
Braintrees mobile app, Venmo, will help
add to PayPals mobile payments capabili-
ties. The app lets people pay each other
using their mobile devices, similar to a
service PayPal offers.
Toyota recalls
615,000 Sienna minivans
TORRANCE Toyota is recalling
615,000 Sienna minivans in the U.S.
because they can inadvertently shift out of
park and roll away.
The recall involves Siennas from the
2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 models
years.
Toyota said Thursday that the shift lock-
ing device can potentially be damaged. If
that happens, the minivans can shift out of
park even if the driver isnt depressing the
brake pedal.

ST. LOUIS Missing some of their
biggest stars, the San Francisco 49ers put
their foot down. They put the St. Louis
Rams back in their place, too.
Colin Kaepernick threw two touchdown
passes, Frank Gore had his rst 100-yard
game of the season and the defense stepped
up in a 35-11 victory Thursday night.
We know the talent we have on this
team, Kaepernick said. We know what
were capable of.
Anquan Boldin had ve catches for 90
yards and a touchdown, and Gore had 153
yards on 20 carries and a 34-yard score for
San Francisco (2-2), which was outscored
46-10 the previous two games. NaVorro
Bowman had two of the 49ers ve sacks
with a strip leading to Anthony Dixons
fourth-quarter scoring run.
If we keep playing, our offense will come
around sooner or later, Bowman said.
The Rams (1-3) had an overtime win and
tie against San Francisco last year, and took
the early lead Thursday before falling at.
Greg Zuerlein banged in a 40-yard eld goal
off the right upright to end a nine-game
scoring drought in the rst quarter, but the
49ers answered with 28 straight points.
Tomorrows going to be a pretty tough
day in the lm room, Rams quarterback
Sam Bradford said. The good news is we
have 10 days, 11 days until we play again
and theres going to be ample time to get
that corrected.
St. Louis was held to 188 total yards and
was completely stuffed on the run, with 18
yards on 19 carries.
Thats what we do, said safety Donte
Whitner, who had an interception in the end
zone. We stop the run rst, then we stop
the pass and then we get away with wins.
The 49ers came close to a Super Bowl title
in February and regained their footing
against the team that gave them the most
trouble last season. Minus cornerback

48-7. After scoring a combined
28 points in its rst two games,
Half Moon Bay doubled that
against South City. The
Cougars jumped out to a 28-0 lead
over the Warriors last week.
Menlo put up a games worth of
stats in one half last week, scoring
all seven of its rst-half posses-
sions. QB Jack Heneghan con-
tinues to shred opposing defenses.
He threw for 383 yards and six
scores in the rst two quarters last
week.

Carlmont (2-1), 7 p.m. Friday
The Bearcats were buried 48-7 by
Menlo School last week. The
Scots suffered their rst loss of the
season, 23-19 to Homestead.
Since opening with a 43-6 win
over Gunn, San Mateo has allowed
an average 45 points in its last
two games. After gaining 370
yards of offense in their rst game,
the Bearcats have managed 288
yards combined over the last two
games. The difference in
Carlmonts three games has been
21 points. The Scots lost to
San Mateo 20-13 last season.

experienced quite the turnaround
after going winless last season.
Los Altos is averaging nearly 37
points per game, buoyed by a 61-
point outburst against Burton-SF
in its season opener. Mills is 3-
0 for the rst time since 2003.

beating visiting Burlingame Friday night at Clifford Field.

Friday nights Daily Journal
Game of the Week should serve as
an interesting experiment one
that looks into what a blowout
does to two different football
teams.
Under the lights in South San
Francisco, the Warriors will be the
team trying to bounce back from
one.
And on the other sideline,
Burlingame High School will be
the team bouncing around with a
lot of swagger after back to back
shellings of the opposition.
Needless to say, with so much to
prove, emotions and adrenaline
will be high when the ball gets
kicked off at 7 p.m.
We have been fortunate enough
to get off to good starts, said
Burlingame head coach John
Philipopoulos. Weve had big
plays in the kicking game. Weve
scored early. Weve created
turnovers. Weve played pretty
decent football for four quarters.
Its a combination of a number of
things. Were hoping we can keep
working and the trend continues.
We worked hard this week,
said South City head coach Frank
Moro. Im tired. Our guys
responded well to it. We took it as
a learning experience. It was pour-
ing rain on Saturday (after Fridays
loss) and we were out there practic-
ing. What I thought we had to do
was go back to teaching.
Its been a long time since Moro
and the Warriors have been man-
handled like they were last Friday
against Half Moon Bay. Usually
the more aggressive and physical
of the teams they play, South City
ran into an inspired Cougars team
who took it to the Warriors from
the opening kickoff. After five
plays, Half Moon Bay was up 7-0
and by the half, they added four
more scores.

game) and we got beat up, Moro

ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders quarterback
Terrelle Pryor returned to practice on a limited
basis Thursday, three days after being
knocked out with a concussion, and his status
for Sundays game remains in question.
Pryor passed a concussion test Wednesday
that allowed him to return to practice but he
still must be cleared for contact before the
Raiders (1-2) decide whether to play him
Sunday against Washington (0-3).
Theres still some hurdles that he has to
clear but he was cleared to go ahead and non-
contact practice, coach Dennis Allen said.
He was able to get in there and practice some
on a limited basis today.
During the part of practice open to the
media, Pryor did conditioning without a hel-
met and watched backups Matt Flynn and
Matt McGloin run practice. But Allen said
that Pryor put the helmet
on later and got some
plays in with his team-
mates.
Allen said hed like to
know as soon as possible
about Pryors status and
that he wont speculate
about whether Pryor will
play until doctors clear
him for contact.
Pryor was hurt late in
Monday nights loss in Denver when he was
knocked out on a helmet-to-helmet hit by
linebacker Wesley Woodyard on a quarterback
draw. The play was determined to be legal by
the NFL because Pryor was a runner between
the tackles.
Pryor was cleared to attend meetings and
have physical activity Wednesday and passed
an additional test after that to allow him to
practice. Pryor said Wednesday it was his rst
concussion and described the symptoms as
mild.
But because of the uncertainty, offensive
coordinator Greg Olson has had to design two
game plans this week: one that includes
designed quarterback runs for the more mobile
Pryor, who leads the team with 198 yards
rushing, and one for the more traditional
pocket passer Flynn.
Its a few tweaks here and there really,
Olson said. Obviously youll be able to add
the option of some of the things were doing
with Terrelle in the run game. But to be hon-
est with you, since Terrelle has taken over,
weve done some of those things when Matt
has gotten in and taken some of the few reps
that he has. Hes done some of those things
and hes comfortable with that. Hes obvious-
ly not the athlete that Terrelle is but as far as
knowing when to pull the ball and when to
hand it off, hes good at that.
If Flynn does start, he would be the 16th
starting quarterback for the Raiders since the
start of the 2003 season.
Flynn has started two games in his career
when he was in Green Bay, going 24 for 37
for 251 yards, three touchdowns and one
interception in 2010 at New England and then
throwing for 480 yards and six touchdowns
against Detroit in the 2011 season nale for
the Packers.
But Flynn was beaten out the past two sum-
mers for starting jobs by Russell Wilson in
Seattle and Pryor in Oakland. He was ham-
pered in both training camps by a sore throw-
ing elbow but the time off since losing the
starting job has helped.
His arm looks fresher, Olson said. I
think that jumps out probably to everybody.
His arm is certainly much fresher.

Spanning back to Ocean Division play
last year, Woodside and South City have
forged something of a spirited rivalry, with
both teams moving up to the Bay Division
this season.
The Wildcats picked up right where they
left off, tabbing a decisive sweep at South
City 25-15, 25-20, 25-13.
Woodsides senior tandem of Christine
Alftin and Dani Walsh fronted an all-around
dominant performance, as the Wildcats (2-0
in Bay, 9-6 overall) remain unbeaten in
league play. Alftin soared to 14 match kills,
while dominating at the service line with a
season-high seven aces.
Alot of times, [Walsh] is our big server,
Woodside head coach Kyle Mashima said.
She usually cranks out a lot of aces. But it
didnt work out like that today.
Woodside servers picked apart South
Citys defense throughout, as Ana Oropeza
and Francesca Fioresi tallied four service
points apiece in Game 1. Alftin took it to
the next level in Game 2 the most spirit-
ed game of the match reeling off 10 serv-
ice points, while doing even more damage
at the net.
In Game 2, South City rallied back from a
seven-point decit to overtake Woodside
20-19 on a nifty crosscourt kill by Sierra
Nelson. But Woodside answered right back,
seizing momentum on an authoritative
Alftin kill to tie it, before junior Danielle
La Force delivered a perfectly-timed block
at middle-net for a go-ahead kill. Woodside
would not trail for the remainder of the
match.
South City senior Sifagatogo Faaiu
seemed to single-handedly keep her team in
contention early on, pacing the Warriors
with nine match kills and ve blocks.
She did good, South City head coach
Enrico Salazar said. She was aggressive.
Thats what we want. Its like I tell them
win or lose, we want to give it our best until
the last point.
Entering his third year as Woodsides head
coach, Mashima has seen quite a turn-
around. The Wildcats went from a winless
league record in 2011, to capturing the
Ocean Division crown last season.
Mashima admits Woodside wouldnt be
where it is without an inux of transfer
players. Joining the team this season from
Elk Grove are sisters Heilani and Haili
Hoeft. But the game-changer was the addi-
tion of both Alftin and Walsh at the midsea-
son mark last year.
Alftin transferred from St. Francis, while
Walsh transferred from Bishop ODowd. The
two were forced to sit out throughout non-
league play, but ended up bonding on the
sidelines while running the scorebook
together.
[The team was] sort of even performance
wise kind of 50-50, Mashima said.
Then when they came on board, we were at
a hundred percent. So, they made a big dif-
ference.
Now, the tandems on-court communica-
tion is tantamount to Woodsides high-
octane attack.
We usually tell each other how to hit
and in midair, well be telling each other
where to hit, Alftin said. I think we work
really well together.
Other Bay results
Burlingame (1-1, 9-5) bounced back from
a tough loss in Tuesdays league opener to
down Aragon (0-2, 6-3) in three straight
games 25-16, 25-21, 25-22. Aragon fal-
tered after taking a 19-13 lead in Game 1.
The Dons are expected to go through some
growing pains to start the season, as their
starting seven consists of four sopho-
mores, two juniors, and just one senior.
Were just a young team and were trying
to get to know each other, Aragon head
coach Kelsey Stiles said. We have fantastic
players. They just need to nd their niche.
Carlmont (2-0, 9-5) downed Hillsdale (0-
2, 3-4) in four games 25-21, 25-22, 22-
25, 25-11. Senior Charlotte Jackman had a
career-high 15 kills to pace the Scots.
Menlo-Atherton (2-0, 8-3) swept San
Mateo (0-2, 2-7) 25-14, 25-12, 25-21.
Valerie Mihalek paced the Bearcats with
seven kills, while Morgan Ho totaled 16
assists.
Ocean Division results
Sequoia (2-0, 8-2) maintained one of the
Ocean Divisions best overall records,
downing Westmoor (0-1, 8-6) in ve games
25-16, 25-21, 13-25, 22-25, 15-11.
With senior Joy Robinson sidelined due to a
hamstring issue, her younger sister, fresh-
man Leanne Robinson, emerged with a
career-high 20 kills. The offensive produc-
tion of Rachel Fink was also key to the
Cherokees perseverance.
Elsewhere, Terra Nova (1-1, 8-2) swept
Jefferson (0-2) 25-13, 25-20, 25-5.
Were starting to move the ball well, and
were beginning to attack the net effective-
l y, Terra Nova head coach Craig Dillie said.
Mills (1-1, 2-5) downed El Camino (0-2,
0-3) in straight games 25-20, 25-21, 25-
18. Pricilla Young paced the Vikings with
nine kills and seven blocks, while sopho-
more Adrienne Lee had 15 digs.
[Lee] had an exceptional save that kept
us in the rst game, Mills head coach Polly
Wiard said.
Half Moon Bay (2-0, 6-6) remains unbeat-
en in league after downing Capuchino (1-1,
4-5) 26-24, 25-21, 24-26, 25-16.
Freshman Hailey Merkes paced the Cougars
with 13 kills, while contributing 10 digs
and ve aces.
Woodside too strong for South City
Willis and Aldon Smith, they quieted a rau-
cous, hopeful crowd, sending all but a few
thousand home early.
Were going to have to get tough in
here, Rams defensive end Chris Long said.
Were going to have to hold each other
accountable and make plays and dig our way
out of this hole because nobodys going to
do that for us.
Kaepernick had no touchdown passes and
four interceptions the previous two weeks
and completed fewer than 50 percent of his
passes. He was 15 for 23 for 167 yards.
Boldin had a monster debut with the 49ers
after helping the Ravens beat San Francisco
in the Super Bowl, but had been quiet along
with the rest of the offense the previous two
weeks. He had two highlight catches in the
second quarter, a 42-yarder despite Cortland
Finnegan getting agged for holding, and a
20-yard score capped by a dive into the end
zone after barely avoiding the sideline.
Gore more than doubled his output from
the rst three weeks and got a lot more
work, too, after totaling just 11 carries last
week. Four days earlier, DeMarco Murray
burned them for 175 yards in Dallas 31-7
win.
Its disgusting, Long said. It really is
just disgusting.
The Rams have trailed by double digits in
every game, making up an 11-point decit
against Arizona in the opener but not gaps
of 21 and 24 points against Atlanta and
Dallas, and were down by 25 in the fourth
quarter against San Francisco.
They got hit by injuries, too, the worst of
them when rookie safety T.J. McDonald was
carted off with a leg injury in the second
half.
Bradford was 19 for 41 for 202 yards and
an interception and has been sacked 11
times the last two games after the Rams
allowed none the previous four games.
After mustering just 25 yards in the rst
quarter, the 49ers took a noisy crowd out of
it in the second, averaging more than 11
yards per snap while piling up 176 yards
and two touchdowns. Kaepernick was 8 for
12 for 104 yards in the half, all but 11 of
those yards in the second quarter.
The Rams went for it on third-and-1 from
the 49ers 34 and Whitners diving intercep-
tion on a tipped ball in the end zone set up
an eight-play, 80-yard drive capped by
Gores 34-yard run on third-and-1 in the
nal minute that made it 14-3.

SAN FRANCISCO Angel Pagan hit a
tiebreaking home run leading off the eighth
inning to give San Francisco a win in what
might have been Tim Lincecums nal out-
ing with the club, and the Giants beat the
Los Angeles Dodgers 3-2 on Thursday
night.
Pagans fth home run in an injury-short-
ened season was surrendered by losing
pitcher Paco Rodriguez (3-3) and plunked
off the top of an ambulance parked just
beyond the fence in left eld.
Lincecum struck out Yasiel Puig three
times among his six Ks but missed a win
against the NL West champion Dodgers.
Santiago Casilla (7-2) earned the victory
with a 1-2-3 eighth, while Sergio Romo
pitched the ninth for his 38th save.
Lincecum is wrapping up a $40.5 million,
two-year contract that paid him $22 million
this season. The 29-year-old right-hander
allowed two runs and three hits in seven
impressive innings.
The NL Cy Young award winner in 2008
and 09 and four-time All-Star was drafted
10th overall by the Giants in 2006.
He pitched a no-hitter July 13 at San
Diego and pitched the 2010 World Series
clincher at Texas as the club captured its rst
championship since moving West in 1958.
He moved to the bullpen and became an
effective reliever for last seasons title run.
Lincecum received a roaring ovation from
the sellout crowd of 41,221 when introduced
before the game and several more times
throughout.
I certainly hope Timmy is back with us,
manager Bruce Bochy said. Timmy has
been a pleasure all my years here and I hope
that continues.
Lincecum allowed two doubles to begin
the fourth, then struck out the next three
batters. He followed up Barry Zitos victory
in his likely Giants farewell a night earlier
in a 6-4 win with another emotional outing
for the franchise and its supporters.
Fans held large banners reading We love
U Timmy! and Timmy Dont Leave and
cheered when he ran off following a fth-
inning sacrice. Pagan had an RBI ground-
out in the inning, Gregor Blanco walked and
Brandon Belt hit a trying double to make it
2-2.
After Adrian Gonzalez put the Dodgers
ahead on a rst-inning sacrice y, the
Giants saved Lincecum a run in the second.
Tim Federowicz was thrown out at home by
left elder Blanco as he tried to score on
Puigs single.
Dodgers starter Edinson Volquezs winless
stretch reached seven starts since he beat
the Mets on Aug. 17. He didnt beat the
Giants in ve tries this year.
The Giants took the season series with
their rivals 11-8, earning just their third
series win at home in the second half in 13
tries.
San Francisco third baseman Pablo
Sandoval was scratched with u-like symp-
toms after he arrived at the ballpark and
began throwing up, and Nick Noonan
replaced him.
NOTES: A moment of silence was held
before the game for Jonathan Denver, a fan
stabbed to death Wednesday night a few
blocks from the ballpark. ... Dodgers OF
Andre Ethier isnt expected to play again

injured left ankle the team still hopes will
improve in time for the playoffs.

SAN FRANCISCO The man who was fatal-
ly stabbed during a confrontation after a
Dodgers-Giants game in San Francisco was the
son of a Dodgers security guard, the team said
Thursday.
Jonathan Denvers father, Robert Preece,
worked security on game days at Dodger
Stadium, the Dodgers said.
San Francisco police say Denver, 24, was
with his father, brother and two other people a
few blocks from the San Francisco Giantsball-
park Wednesday night when their group
exchanged words with some Giants fans who
were leaving a nightclub.
The exchange turned physical and Denver,
who was wearing Dodgers gear, was stabbed to
death.
There is no rational explanation for this
senseless act, the Dodgers said in a written
statement. The pain that this has caused his
family and friends is unimaginable.
Denver attended the game with his relatives
but left in the eighth inning of what turned out
to be a 6-4 Giants victory. His attackers did not
attend the game, police said.
San Francisco police said Michael
Montgomery, 21, of Lodi, was arrested on sus-
picion of homicide. Another person, whose
name was not released, was also taken into cus-
tody.
One of the suspects during the course of the
interviews (with detectives) made incriminat-
ing statements that give us the indication that
he will be the person booked for homicide,
Police Chief Greg Suhr told reporters.
Were trying to gure out what were going
to do with the other suspect, Suhr continued.
The investigation is still ongoing.
Fans of both teams expressed a range of emo-
tions as they entered Thursday nights game at
AT&TPark.
I was a little bit scared at rst but then I
thought tonight will probably be the safest
night at this ballpark, so I thought it was still
OK to bring my son out to the game, said Clay
Brust, a Dodgers fan from Reno, Nev.
Brian Chew, a Giants fan from San Bruno,
said the stabbing was unfortunate.
It seems like the passion that exudes in
some fans is really pointed in the wrong direc-
tion, Chew said. We have bigger purposes in
life than just orange and black, or blue and
white.
The altercation several blocks from the ball-
park was the second violent confrontation
between Dodgers and Giants fans in the past
several years to end in death or serious injury.
Bryan Stow, a Northern California paramedic
and Giants fan suffered a traumatic brain injury
after two men dressed in Dodgers gear attacked
him following the teams March 31, 2011,
game in Los Angeles.
Denver, his father and his brother had left a
bar around 11:30 p.m. about 90 minutes after
the game ended when they exchanged heated
words about the Giants-Dodgers rivalry with
another group of people leaving a nightclub.
One of the members of the group was wearing
a Giants hat, Suhr said.
Aght broke out, and no one was seriously
hurt at rst. But a second altercation occurred a
few minutes later, Suhr said.
Were not sure at this time who wouldnt let
it go. It wasnt clear who started the second
ght, Suhr said, but it ended with Denvers
stabbing.
Obviously, this is one of the most storied
rivalries in baseball. That said, and Im a big
Giants fan, there is no place at these games for
violence, Suhr said. Nobodys life should be
at stake whether they are at the game, leaving
the game, whether its six blocks away and an
hour and a half after the game.

said. We got pushed around and that usually
doesnt happen. And I looked at the lm, it
started up front with the lines. You look at
it, we started four out of ve underclassmen
on the offensive line. And a lot of those
guys are going both ways so, we had some
problems getting ready for the football
game. We had some problems when things
got physical, we didnt know what do to and
it showed.
When the dust settled, the Cougars had
rushed for 453 yards on a team that prides
itself on stomping out the run.
We just got punched and didnt know
what to do, Moro said. And we dont have
the experience to know how to react to
that.
On the other end, the Panthers didnt let a
bye week slow down their initial momen-
tum. After dismantling Mountain View in
Week 1, the thought was that perhaps
Burlingame would hit a lull and thwart such
a positive start.
We were a little (concerned),
Philipopoulos said. Because the bye was
so early, that two week wait felt like two
months to me. That time kind of drags a lit-
tle bit. But, our kids, theyre resilient and
did a great job. It didnt effect them one way
or another. We took advantage of that time.
Indeed they did. Burlinagame jumped all
over Gunderson and controlled all facets of
the game. Offensively, Manese Palu and
Keoni Keahi showed explosion for the
Panthers who tallied 301 yards of total
offense to go with another touchdown on
special teams.
So again, with so much too prove, the key
to Friday nights game might be what team
handles that pressure the best.
I told the guys straight up,
Philipopoulos said, South City High
School does not lose football games like
that. Thats not who they are. Thats not
what they do. Thats not what theyre accus-
tomed to. And you can bet your bottom dol-
lar theyre going to come out ring on all
cylinders. If you walk in there feeling all
high and mighty because were 2-0, were
going to be in for a rude awakening.I know
South City is going to come out swinging.
We have a lot of challenges ahead of us
tomorrow.
Moro echoed the same sentiment.
They know that Burlingame is coming
ready to play, Moro said. Burlingame is
going to be similar to Half Moon Bay in
that theyre going to be fundamentally
sound. Theyre going to run and block as
hard as they can. Get on the right guy. Not
make any mistakes.We went over every-
thing again. We spent a lot of time in prac-
tice trying to get a little more condent and
a little bit more healthy.
The biggest key for us is our offensive
line, Philipopoulos said. Being able to
handle their size and athleticism up front is
going to be a challenge for us. And just tak-
ing care of the ball. We dont want to turn
the ball over and give them momentum.
I want to come out of this game playing
fundamentally sound, Moro said. Were
going to go forward and spend more time in
their backeld than they spend in ours.
Thats the key right there. We have to spend
more time in their backeld.

Capuchino (1-2) vs. El Camino (2-1) at
South City, 2 p.m. Saturday
The Mustangs mauled Gunn 35-7 last
week for their rst win of the season. The
Colts held off Lincoln-SF, 12-7.
Capuchino has done what every coach would
ask for: continued improvement. After get-
ting blasted 56-20 in its opener, Cap closed
the gap two weeks ago, falling 23-22 to
South City before breaking through last
week, giving coach Josh Horton his rst
win with the Mustangs. In El Caminos
two wins, the Colts have scored a total of 40
points. In their lone loss, they put up 26.

by Miramonte-Orinda. Hillsdale QB Cole
Carrithers had one of the best outings of his

Alameda needs only one more win to equal
last years total.
Lowell (0-2) at
Jefferson (0-3), 7 p.m. Friday
The Cardinals were crushed 35-8 by
Tennyson-Hayward. The Indians were
bashed 53-12 by Petaluma. Lowell has
been outscored 71-20 in two games this sea-
son. Jefferson is allowing more than 50
points per game. The good news for the
Indians is they scored their rst points of
the year last week after being shut out in
their rst two games.
Sequoia (3-0) at
Cedar City-Utah (2-3), 7 p.m. Friday
The Cherokees chewed up Woodside last
week, 44-26. The Redmen are coming off
a tight 6-0 victory. This is the third year
in a row Sequoia is traveling out of state to
play a game. Last year, the Cherokees went
to Idaho and two years ago they traveled to
Oregon. Sequoia is 2-0 in out-of-state
games. Sequoia QB Faavae Brown
accounted for ve touchdowns four rush-
ing, one passing in the win over
Woodside. Throw out a Week 2 63-point
explosion and Cedar City has scored only
32 points in its other four games.
Sacred Heart Prep (3-0) at
Kings Academy (1-1), 7 p.m. Friday

Sacred Heart Prep is averaging more than
540 yards of offense per game. RB Ricky
Grau paced the Gators last week with 150
yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries.
The 10 points allowed by SHP were the
rst the Gators have given up this season.
After an encouraging 55-7 season-open-

Knights trailed 21-0 after just six minutes
last week and managed just 82 yards of total
offense.

AUTO
CX-5 is hot-selling Mazda crossover SUV
By Ann M. Job
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In its rst year, the Mazda CX-5 crossover sport utility
vehicle won over auto critics with its driver-pleasing han-
dling, comfortable interior and sporty looks.
Now in its second model year, the ve-passenger CX-5
promises to garner more compliments, thanks to a more
powerful, but still fuel-efcient, engine that puts zoom-
zoom into the compact SUV.
New for 2014, the 2.5-liter, double overhead cam,
SkyActiv-G four cylinder has a larger displacement than the
original 2-liter four cylinder and generates 184 horsepower,
an increase of 29 over last years sole engine. Its horse-
power is higher than the four cylinder in the 2014 Toyota
RAV4 and even one of the turbo engines offered in the 2014
Ford Escape SUV.
The new Mazda engine also delivers 185 foot-pounds of
torque at 3,250 rpm, which compares with 150 foot-pounds
of torque at 4,000 rpm in the CX-5s smaller engine and the
RAV4s 172 foot-pounds at 4,100 rpm.
The intriguing part is that federal government fuel econo-
my ratings for the front-wheel drive CX-5 with the more
powerful engine still are near the top of the non-hybrid,
gasoline-powered, compact crossover class: 25 miles per
gallon in city driving and 32 mpg on the highway.
Add some new features for 2014 and the fact the CX-5 is a
recommended buy of Consumer Reports magazine, and its
no wonder the CX-5 is Mazdas second best-selling vehicle
in America. In fact, the 54,388 U.S. sales so far this calen-
dar year are more than double the CX-5 sales from last year
at this time.
The CX-5 still offers a six-speed manual, though it is only
with the smaller, 2-liter engine that remains in the lineup.
All told, the 2014 CX-5 remains an affordable and note-
worthy choice for smaller SUV shoppers.
Starting manufacturers suggested retail price, including
destination charge, is $22,190 for a base, 2014 CX-5 Sport
with front-wheel drive and six-speed manual transmission.
The lowest starting retail price for a base, 2014 CX-5
Sport with six-speed automatic transmission is $23,590, or
$1,400 more.
The lowest starting MSRP, including destination charge,
for a 2014 CX-5 with all-wheel drive is $24,840. The only
transmission available with all-wheel drive is the six-speed
automatic.
All base models, which are Sport trim, have the base,
155-horsepower, 2-liter four cylinder.
Buyers wanting the new, 2.5-liter four cylinder must move
up to a 2014 CX-5 Touring or Grand Touring model. Starting
retail price for a 2014 CX-5 Touring FWD is $25,610, while
a Touring model with all-wheel drive starts at $26,860.
The base CX-5 prices undercut, just a bit, some competi-
tors, such as the 2014 Toyota RAV4, which has a starting
retail price, including destination charge, of $24,160 for a
front-wheel drive model with 176-horsepower four cylinder
Toyota executive: Pent-up
demand for cars will end
By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWYORK The boom in sales of new cars in the U.S.
has been fueled by consumers replacing vehicles they kept
through the recession.
But a top auto industry executive says that the pent-up
demand likely will be satised by late next year.
Jim Lentz, Toyotas North American CEO, told the
Associated Press in an interview Thursday that demand for
new cars from owners of older models could dry up sometime
late in 2014. If the economy isnt creating jobs at a faster
pace when that happens, the boom could screech to a halt.
The market then has to work off a much better economy,
an improving economy, Lentz said. If we dont have that,
I think the market may atten out.
New car and truck sales hit a three-decade low of 10.4 mil-
lion in 2009 as the nancial crisis dried up money for car
loans and U.S.-based auto companies nearly went out of
business. Consumers, many who feared they could lose their
jobs, refused to buy new cars and instead kept their old ones
on the road.
Sales, though, gradually rebounded and now are running at
an annual rate of around 15.6 million, just below pre-reces-
sion levels.
Lentz, speaking at the APs New York headquarters, said
the average car and truck in the U.S. is now more than 11
years old. At the same time, the supply of coveted used cars
that are one-to-ve years old is down to levels not seen
since the 1980s. Used car prices have jumped, making their
monthly payments as high as those for new cars, Lentz said.
Thats brought more buyers into new-car showrooms, he
said.

But as people replace their cars at a faster
rate, the used-car supply increases.
Eventually, prices will drop and lure buyers
out of the new-car market, he said.
So in time, as that one- to ve-year base
builds its way back up, I think were going
to reach that equilibrium, probably some-
time near the end of 2014, he said.
Jesse Toprak, senior analyst for the
TrueCar.com auto pricing site, disagrees,
saying pent-up demand isnt close to taper-
ing off.
Consumers have not yet made up for four
years of lower-than-normal auto sales, and
wont for another three or four years, Toprak
said. He also believes that consumers and
businesses have just started to replace old
pickup trucks that were held through the
recession.
If auto sales do slow, that could be bad
news for the U.S. economic recovery. The
auto industry has created thousands of jobs
as sales have recovered, helping to keep the
economy aoat for the past two years.

and automatic transmission. The starting
retail price of the 2014 CX-5 is just a bit
more than the $22,345 for a 2014 Ford
Escape with 168-horsepower four cylin-
der, automatic transmission and front-
wheel drive.
The test CX-5 was a top-of-the-line
Grand Touring model with all-wheel drive,
plus the optional technology package that
added a TomTom navigation system, high-
intensity-discharge headlamps and
advanced keyless entry, among other
things. As a result, the test vehicles win-
dow sticker price was just over $32,000.
Drivers can notice quickly the difference
between the smaller four cylinder and the
new one in the CX-5. The higher-powered
CX-5 accelerates more eagerly and moves
in sprightly fashion, due in part to the
vehicles impressive low weight that
Mazda engineers carefully honed.
The base CX-5 weighs less than 3,200
pounds, or about the same as a base, 2014
Honda Accord car. Even the CX-5 Grand
Touring model with the slightly larger
engine and front wheel drive weighs less
than the top, 2014 Accord LX sedan.
Power in the CX-5 came on smoothly
and steadily through the automatic trans-
mission. While there were some straining
sounds from the four cylinder when the
SUV was pressed to pass other vehicles on
long, uphill highway stretches in moun-
tain country, the performance was far bet-
ter than what comes from the smaller
engine.
Fuel economy was a surprising 25.5
mpg, which is just below the combined
city/highway mileage of 26 mpg estimat-
ed by the federal government. This trans-
lated into a travel range of 390 miles in
the all-wheel drive model, which had a
15.3-gallon fuel tank. Regular unleaded
gasoline is all thats needed.
Note that the impact of the larger four
banger on fuel economy is meager, as it
garners 25/32-mpg federal fuel economy
ratings in the front-wheel drive CX-5 vs.
the 26/32-mpg ratings for a front-wheel
drive CX-5 with the smaller engine.
The test CX-5 was stable in curves and
corners, with little body lean exhibited.
The driver became increasingly confident
in making sharp maneuvers, since the SUV
rode like it was kept tightly connected to
the road and responsive to steering inputs.
The engaging experience for the driver,
who, like other SUV drivers, sits a good
distance above the pavement, helps set
the CX-5 apart. Simply, there are plenty of
crossover SUVs with a more plush, more
isolated-from-the-road ride, and they have
quieter interiors, too, than the CX-5. But
this Mazda is agile, fun and relatively
spunky, particularly for drivers who prefer
a sporty car ride.
The CX-5 interior isnt as stylized as
those of some other vehicles, such as the
Ford Escape. But its handsome and func-
tional.
The 5.8-inch display screen in the mid-
dle of the dashboard isnt as large as those
in some Toyotas, for example, and the
TomTom nav is OK but not exceptional in
its graphics.
The CX-5 seats, leather-trimmed in the
test vehicle, were supportive on lengthy
drives, and back-seat legroom of 39.3
inches was unexpectedly generous.
Towing capacity is 2,000 pounds.

Breaking Bad is ending run but still looking good
By Frazier Moore
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK The supply is
running low and you know there
wont be more. Breaking Bad
stands to leave its fans reeling.
For five seasons of wickedness
this AMC drama has set viewers
face-to-face with the repellant but
irresistible Walter White and the
dark world he embraced as he
spiraled into evil. With the end
imminent (Sunday at 9 p.m.
EDT), who can say what fate
awaits this teacher-turned-drug-
lord for the havoc he has wreaked
on everyone around him.
This is more than the end of a
TV series. Its a cultural moment,
arriving as the show has logged
record ratings, bagged a best-
drama Emmy and even scored
this weeks cover of The New
Yorker magazine.
Up through the penultimate
episode, Breaking Bad has
been as potent and pure as the
blue sky crystal meth Walter
cooked with such skill. Judging
from that consistency in story-
telling and in performances by
such stars as Bryan Cranston
(Walter White), Aaron Paul (his
sidekick Jesse Pinkman), Anna
Gunn (who just won an Emmy as
Walts wife) and Betsy Brandt,
the end will likely pack unforgiv-
ing potency.
But one thing is dead sure: It
will be beautiful.
Breaking Bad has often been
described as addictive, and if
thats so, the look of the show is
its own habit-forming drug.
Michael Slovis, the series four-
times-Emmy-nominated director
of photography, has been cooking
up that look since the series
sophomore season.

Its 1929 in Berlin, where the
tawdry Kit Kat Klub epitomizes
the atmosphere of anything
goes. In the ensuing months,
however, tensions rise as the
Nazis rise to power.
Thats the setting for
Cabaret, the memorable musi-
cal by composer John Kander and
lyricist Fred Ebb, now enjoying
a noteworthy production by
Broadway By the Bay in Redwood
City.
Director Brandon Jackson
employs a minimalist staging
that keeps the action flowing
smoothly and propelling the
plot.
Much of the action takes place
in the Kit Kat Klub, where the
leering Emcee (Alex Rodriguez)
oversees overtly sexual perform-
ances by the six Kit Kat Girls and
the four Kit Kat Boys.
The clubs star performer is an
Englishwoman, Sally Bowles
(Amie Shapiro), who insinuates
herself into the room and bed of a
recently arrived American writer,
Clifford Bradshaw (Jack
Mosbacher).
They live in a rooming house
owned by Frulein Schneider
(Karen DeHart), an older spin-
ster. Frulein Schneider figures
in a subplot along with Herr
Schultz (Stuart Miller), a kindly
widower who owns a fruit shop.
They contemplate marriage,
but his being Jewish proves to be
an insurmountable barrier in the
face of the Nazis anti-Semitism.
Cabaret was a Broadway hit
that first came to San Francisco
in 1987. It has been seen locally
several times since then. BBB
staged it in 2004 at the San
Mateo Performing Arts Center.
For many fans, though, the
benchmark is the 1972 film star-
ring Joel Grey as the Emcee and
Liza Minnelli as Sally Bowles.
They set the standard.
Rodriguezs interpretation of
the Emcee is far different from
Greys, but it works well in the
context of this production. He
sings, dances and acts well.
Likewise, Shapiros Sally
Bowles is far different from
Minnellis. Minnelli is the bet-
ter dancer, but choreographer
Kristin Kusanovich wisely sim-
plifies Shapiros dance moves.
Shapiro paces the emotions
and volume well in such songs as
Mein Herr and Maybe This
Time, but pushes in the title
song. Her acting is generally
good, but she cant quite capture
Sallys neediness and vulnerabil-
i t y.
Mosbacher does well as Cliff, a
role based on author Christopher
Isherwood, who penned the sto-
ries on which the play by John
Van Druten and this musical are
based.
Supporting characters are
solid, especially DeHart as
Frulein Schneider and Miller as
Herr Schultz. However,
Brandons direction dilutes the
tragic sadness of her decision not
to marry Herr Schultz because of
how the marriage might affect
her livelihood.
Melissa Reinertson does dou-
ble duty as a Kit Kat Girl and
Frulein Kost, a prostitute who
also lives in Frulein Schneiders
house. Warren Wernick plays
Ernst, who befriends Cliff but
who is revealed to be less inno-
cent than he seems at first.
The show works best in the
first act, when Brandons staging
relies on a few chairs on the two-
level set by Margaret Toomey,
who designed the costumes. The
staging doesnt work as well in
the second act as emotions and
the tensions heighten.
Kusanovichs inventive chore-
ography is one of the shows
highlights, as well as the musi-
cal direction by Sean Kana, who
directs the onstage orchestra
from the keyboard.
Taken as a whole, this produc-
tion, though not perfect, has
much to recommend it. It contin-
ues at the Fox Theatre, 2215
Broadway, Redwood City,
through Sept. 29. For tickets and

scene, not to overtake it, but to help it
along, said Slovis over a recent lunch in
Manhattan. With Breaking Bad, I recog-
nized very early that I had a story and per-
formances that could stand up to a bold
look.
The action is centered in Albuquerque,
N.M., which invites sprawling desert shots
and tidy manicured neighborhoods; washes
of light and jagged sun-drenched expanses.
The look of the show makes the most of
its setting, and also the technology by
which viewers see it: In an age of digital
video, with the smallest detail and the
sharpest resolution visible to the audience,
Walters battered mobile meth lab could be
clearly discerned as a speck against a vista
of deserts and mountains. A dolls disem-
bodied eyeball bobbing in a swimming
pool had chilling vividness.
And dont forget the shows visual signa-
ture: Breaking Bad was never afraid of the
dark.
Slovis recalls how, his rst week as DP,
he was shooting in Jesses basement.
Jesse and Walter are down there cooking
meth, and I turn off all the
lights and turn the back
lights on. Theres smoke
and shafts of light com-
ing through the basement
door and I go, This is
what I came to do!
We have some inter-
esting extremes in light-
ing, thanks to Michael
and his fearlessness,
said Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan
from Los Angeles. He invoked the fancy
artistic term for this, chiaroscuro, which
means the use of strong contrasts between
light and dark.
Breaking Bad has become known for
beautiful bold lighting, he said, and
Michael became an indispensable part of
the Breaking Bad equation.
The imagery of Breaking Bad is second-
nature to its viewers, whether or not they
are conscious of Slovis work. So when they
swoon at the beauty of the desert outside
Albuquerque, they may not know the com-
plexion of this badlands was created in his
camera.
The desert on the show has a tonality
that doesnt exist in real life, he said with a
laugh. This color is achieved with a so-
called tobacco lter clamped on the lens.
I dont pay much attention to reality when
I light or even when I shoot exteriors. But
nobody questions the color, because it
becomes part of the storytelling.
You would have a hard time nding many
stylistic links between Breaking Bad and
some of Slovis other credits, which include
CSI (for which he won an Emmy),
Fringe, AMCs short-lived noir thriller
Rubicon, and lighter fare including
Running Wilde and Royal Pains. (Nor
his additional credits as a director, which
range from four episodes of Breaking Bad
to Chicago Fire and 30 Rock.)
Instead, he said he strives to let each proj-
ect suggest its own look.
Now 58, Slovis is soft-voiced and lanky,
with a head whose baldness rivals Walt
Whites in Heisenberg mode.
He got the photography bug while grow-
ing up in Plainview, N.J., where he became
the school photographer and won a state
photography contest. He was invited to
study at the Rochester Institute of
Technology.
He imagined himself a ne-arts photogra-
pher but he loved movies and storytelling,
and, after graduate school at New York
University, he landed jobs shooting music
videos and commercials, then got nibbles
from feature lms.
But in 2001 he found movie offers drying
up, and, though he had never seen TV in his
future, he gratefully accepted a call from the
NBC series Ed.
The timing was terric. For decades, TVs
hasty, assembly-line production schedule
proved an obstacle to giving a series its
own visual style.
Film had been just a way to record the TV
picture, Slovis said. A further barrier to
getting too creative was the low resolution
and squarish shape of the old TV receivers,
which conversely had a negative impact on
theatrical lms, whose wide-screen format
was forced to conform (with lots of medium
and close-up shots) to movies eventual
small-screen telecast.
Slovis hails pioneering exceptions such
as Twin Peaks, Law & Order and The X-
Files, and credits CSI as one of the rst
times that cinematography became a real
character on a show. TV began changing
around us.
Gilligan agreed that the advent of at-
screen TV really allowed Michaels work to
shine in a way it wouldnt have, 20 years
ago.
Now the end of Breaking Bad is nigh.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Betsy Brandt says the
intensity of the final Breaking Bad
episodes physically affected her.
There were days shooting these last
eight episodes especially I just felt sick.
My chest would get all tight and I just felt
awful, she said.
Brandt plays Marie Schrader, sister-in-
law to chemistry teacher turned drug lord
Walter White (Bryan Cranston) on the
show, which airs its series finale this
Sunday on AMC at 9 p.m. EDT. In an inter-
view Wednesday she said she did a lot of cry-
ing, too.
After wed get a take then Id just sort of
start sobbing because you gotta get it out
before you go home, she said.
The actress says the weightiness of
Breaking Bad had a lot to do with her deci-
sion to take on the comedy The Michael J.
Fox show as her next role. She plays
Annie Henry, wife of Foxs character in the
series that premieres Thursday at 9 p.m.
EDT.
Brandt says when she read the Breaking
Bad nale script, she told show creator
Vince Gilligan it was the perfect ending for
this show.
Shes not giving out any hints, not that
people really want to know.
Its funny. They want me to tell but they
really dont want me to tell, Brandt said.
People are crazy, `Tell me. Dont tell me.
Tell me. Dont. No. Please stop. Thats
kind of what it is.

OH, SAY, YOU SHOULD
SEE: A GLORIOUS 1776
OPENS AMERICAN CON-
SERVATORY THEATERS
2013- 14 SEASON. Political
infighting, heated debates, nego-
tiated compromises.
Revolutionary events come to
life in the Tony Award-winning
musical 1776, a vivid look at our
founding fathers as they drafted
the Declaration of Independence.
1776 premiered on Broadway in
1969, running for 1,217 per-
formances and winning three
Tony Awards, including Best
Musical. Music and lyrics by
Sherman Edwards. Book by Peter
Stone. Directed by Frank Galati.
Two hours and 35 minutes with
one intermission. Through Oct.
6 .

Garage, 325 Mason St. The the-
ater is a relatively level four-
block walk from the BART-
Powell Street Station (Market
Street).
AN ASIDE: A.C.T. Artistic
Director Carey Perloff said,
Welcome to 1776, the true story
of how this country very nearly
failed to come into being.This
musical play is a brilliant drama-
tization of the debate in Congress
over American independence from
Britain, pushed forward in the
oppressive heat of a Philadelphia
summer by wildly high-strung
John Adams, lovelorn Thomas
Jefferson, gout-afflicted Ben
Franklin and a group of fractious
congressional delegates. The
piece is both hilarious and heart-
stopping, as values get compro-
mised, power gets adjudicated and
last-minute deals get made.

what goes into the making of
great theater. After the shows on
Sept. 29 at 2 p.m. and Oct. 2 at 2

Simms allegedly refused to shake the
mayors hand as he had it extended out in
thanks for her presentation.
She also passed on shaking the hand of
Ross before turning around and saying I
better shake your hand or you will tell
everyone I didnt, both Ross and Lim told
the Daily Journal yesterday.
Simms office has a different account of
the scenario, however, in which the inci-
dent played out more as an awkward
moment that Simms briefly hesitated to
reach out her hand because they voted no
against the bond, Assistant
Superintendent Molly Barton told the
Daily Journal yesterday afternoon.
In the end, there was a handshake, all
three agreed, but the way the moment took
place has caused the mayor and deputy
mayor to question the superintendents
professionalism.
Lim even sent Simms an email yesterday
asking for an apology, not a personal one
but one directed more toward the City
Council and its process.
While we did not vote the way you
obviously had hoped, we felt it was
extremely rude to refuse to shake our hands
when we thanked you for your input at the
conclusion of our meeting, Lim wrote
Simms in the email. On behalf of the res-
idents of San Mateo, some of who wit-
nessed your disrespect, we would ask for a
formal apology. Not so much for
Councilmember Ross and I, who are
grown-up enough to forgive your sleight,
but for the disrespect you showed to the
office of the City Council of San Mateo
and the disrespect you showed toward the
democratic process of disagreeing without
being disagreeable.
But in the end, they shook hands,
Barton told the Daily Journal.
It was awkward, we want the bond to
pass, Barton said.
If Measure P is approved, Knolls
Elementary School in San Mateo, which
has been used as a temporary overflow
school, could reopen for the 2016-17
school year, following a design process
and construction of about three years, tak-
ing about $18 million. About $60-$80
million would go Bowditch in Foster City
expanding from 1,000 to 1,500 students,
adding a floor and expanding on the
ground level to address growing enroll-
ment. There is also money for technology,
energy efficiencies and other improve-
ments. It would cost property owners $19
per $100,000 assessed property value.
Voters previously approved Measure L, a
$175 million bond measure in 2008. There
is still $70 million in funds left from
Measure L.
Ross opposes the bond because it will
not allow underprivileged, mostly
Hispanic San Mateo children into Foster
City schools and has an unequal distribu-
tion of funds.
The current policy has exclusionary
practices, he said.
District officials have said that having
San Mateo children attend Foster City
schools has not been an option because of
overcrowding there, and that this bond
measure will help address that.
It is important for the city and district
to get along or the students will suffer,
Ross said.
Ahandshake to Lim is not a meaningless
gesture.
Even if she thinks Im a jerk, she
should respect the process and the posi-
tion, Lim told the Daily Journal. Its not
OK. She should be held to a high profes-
sional standard.
Lim also told the Daily Journal he may
have suffered a moment where he lacked a
bit of maturity but still feels disrespected
by Simms actions Wednesday.
Ross, too, feels disrespected.
I went to shake her hand and she pulled
her hand back and said Im not going to
shake your hand, Ross told the Daily
Journal. It is important for the city and
district to get along or the students will
suffer.
The district is seeking the councils
endorsement of the bond measure. The
council may still endorse it despite the
subcommittees recommendation since it
would require three of five votes.
Measure P requires 55 percent of voters
approval to pass.

AWKWARD
and workshops at Fort Mason in San
Francisco. It was going good for a while.
Samuels was staying sharp and people were
getting good at improv, but then people
would leave for other improv clubs and
Samuels wasnt feeling the challenge gained
by performing in front of a live audience.
So, Samuels decided to create his own
group, and the rst auditions were scheduled
for Sept. 11, 2001. Due to the events of that
morning, however, a second audition date
was created. Some people did actually show
up to the auditions on Sept. 11, and it
seemed to help take peoples minds off the
tragedy of the day, but the majority of peo-
ple came for the postponed tryouts.
Originally, Samuels pictured the troupe per-
forming at parks, and he bought blue blan-
kets (for no particular reason) to be the sign
to let people know where to go for their
entertainment. Thus, the name of the
improv troupe was born.
Samuels and the rest of Blue Blanket
Improv felt getting paid for performances
would complicate things and strain the rela-
tionship, so they registered as a non-prot
group. For their shows, the group asks for a
$10 entrance fee, and all the money they
collect goes to various charities such as
Best Buddies, a group for those with physi-
cal disabilities, or a performing arts schol-
arship.
Samuels and the rest of the performers are
a part of Blue Blanket for the joy they nd
in it, but its not a way for them to make a
living. Samuels, by day, works at the VA
hospital in Palo Alto, where he has to help
heal traumatized Iraqi and Afghani war veter-
ans.
Its very disturbing and requires a lot of
focused, serious energy, Samuels said. I
nd it very helpful to be in a creative envi-
ronment where I can do anything silly and
its OK. We all need therapy, and this is my
therapy.
Brian Ogata, another member of the
troupe who teaches public speaking and
debate classes at a high school, is
enthralled with the feeling of creating a
owing narrative on the y.
When you get into a scene that just ows
and everything just seems to work out its
the most amazing experience you could ever
have as an improv performer, Ogata said.
It feels so good thats the experience you
keep coming back for.
At the shows, all of the scene themes are
generated by the audience. No matter the
improv game, audiences never fail to come
up with humorous situations, such as a
father killing his son trying to shoot a
grape off his head, getting led to hell by the
devil, and then being reunited and bound to
his son for the rest of eternity, with the
entire scene playing out in movie-musical
style.
I have no idea whats going to happen in
any given scene on any given night
which I enjoy, Samuels said. A scene is
about developing an interesting story a
beginning, a middle and an end. The hardest
part for me is not to gag saying some-
thing funny to get a laugh instead of pro-
gressing a story. I want the audience to
laugh at the situation, not the dirty word.
The current members of Blue Blanket
Improv are Samuels, Ogata, Steve Ketchpel,
Barbara Anderson, Eric Fronberg, Kevin
Nova, Todd Sedano, Jen Mazzon and
Jasmine Gunkel. To prepare for their live
shows, these performers meet every
Monday evening in Samuels garage for a
couple of hours and practice the variety of
games in their repertoire.
These performers described the incredible
chemistry and trust they have built with
each other, through rehearsals and live per-
formances.
Its a little bit like jazz, Anderson said.
Everythings going to be spontaneous, but
its also true the more you rehearse and work
with the same group of people, the more
you know what tune you can play and how
theyll harmonize with it. It seems to me
its the closest thing to being able to play
jazz.

said she was running for the two-year

the retirements of the city manager,
assistant to the city manager, re chief

While on the council, she also

still running for the two-year seat cur-
rently held by Pradeep Gupta. Gupta is
now seeking one of three four-year
seats alongside Councilman Mark
Addiego, community volunteer
William (Bill) Lock, businessman
Rick Ochsenhirt, businessman John
Harry Prouty, Kate MacKay, Liza
Normandy, a trustee with the South San
Francisco Unied School District and
Maurice Goodman, also a trustee with
the South San Francisco Unified
School District.
Gupta, a former city planning com-
missioner, was appointed in January
after councilman Kevin Mullin was
elected to the state Assembly. Mullin
had nearly three years left in the term
and the City Council opted to appoint
a place holder only until the regular
November election.

federal workers off the job, close
national parks and generate damaging
headlines for whichever side the pub-
lic held responsible.
Washington faces two deadlines:
The Oct. 1 start of the new budget year
and a mid-October date now esti-
mated for the 17th when the gov-
ernment can no longer borrow money
to pay its bills on time and in full.
The rst deadline requires Congress
to pass a spending bill to allow agen-
cies to stay open. The mid-month
deadline requires Congress to increase
the governments $16.7 trillion bor-
rowing cap to avoid a rst-ever default
on its payments, which include inter-
est obligations, Social Security bene-
ts, payments to thousands of con-
tractors large and small, and salaries
for the military.
The standoff just four days before
the end of the scal year increased the
possibility of a shutdown, with no
signs of compromise.
The No. 2 Democrat in the Senate,
Dick Durbin of Illinois, said that
because of the time it takes the Senate
to approve even non-controversial
bills, if the House amends a Senate-
passed spending bill and returns it to
the Senate over the weekend, That is
a concession on their part that were
going to shut down the government.
Not far from the Capitol, at a com-
munity college in Largo, Md., Obama
insisted he would not negotiate over
his signature domestic achievement,
either on a bill to keep the govern-
ment operating or legislation to raise
the nations borrowing authority.
The entire world looks to us to
make sure that the world economy is
stable. You dont mess with that,
Obama said of the debt ceiling/default
measure. And thats why I will not
negotiate on anything when it comes
to the full faith and credit of the United
States of America.
Responding to Obamas non-nego-
tiable stand, Boehner said, Well, Im
sorry but it just doesnt work that
way.
House GOP leaders said Thursday
they would unveil their own legisla-
tion to lift the governments borrow-
ing cap through December of next
year, but only if the new health care
law is delayed for a year.
Meeting behind closed doors, House
Republican leaders encountered resist-
ance from their rank and le over their
measure even though they were attach-
ing a list of other Republican
favorites such as green-lighting the
Keystone XL oil pipeline, blocking
federal regulation of greenhouse gases
and boosting offshore oil explo-
ration.
Republicans who lost the presiden-
tial election and a shot at Senate con-
trol last year are trying to use must-
pass measures to advance agenda
items that the Democratic-led Senate
and Obama have soundly rejected. The
last-ditch effort on Obamacare
comes just days before coast-to-coast
enrollment in the plans health care
exchanges begins Oct. 1.
Despite the popular items, the lead-
ership was struggling to win over its
recalcitrant GOP members, especially
tea party-backed lawmakers pressing
for deeper, deficit-cutting spending
measures. The spending cuts the
Republicans would attach to the debt-
limit legislation would be likely to
represent a small fraction of the
almost $1 trillion in new borrowing
authority the bill would permit.
Among conservatives, theres a lot
of angst about that, said Rep. John
Fleming, R-La.
Proposed changes include requiring
federal workers to contribute more to
their pensions, along with other
items from a failed 2011 decit-cut-
ting effort.
Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., the
chairman of the Senate Budget
Committee, insisted that the House
accept the Senate bill.
Republicans have got to put an end
to the tea party temper tantrums and
pass our bill without any gimmicks
and without any games, she said.
In the Senate, top Democrat Reid
sought to schedule a series of votes
Thursday night to speed the short-
term spending bill to the House. Sens.
Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Mike Lee, R-
Utah, blocked the effort, however,
saying they wanted the vote on
Friday.
Cruz gave a 21 hour-plus speech ear-
lier this week opposing the measure if
it is changed to remove the anti-
Obamacare provisions. Reids request
sparked a remarkable exchange
between Cruz and Bob Corker, R-
Tenn., who accused the tea party duo
of being publicity hounds who want a
Friday vote because thats what
theyve told outside activists to
expect.
My two colleagues, who I respect,
have sent out emails around the world
and turned this into a show, Corker
said, his voice dripping with derision.
And that is taking priority over get-
ting legislation back to the House so
they can take action before the coun-
trys government shuts down.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Kenneth Campo, aka Kenneth F.
Campo
Case Number: 123748
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Kenneth Campo, aka
Kenneth F. Campo. A Petition for Pro-
bate has been filed by Carmela Eleazar
Campo in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that Carmela Elea-
zar Campo be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: October 21, 2013 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal qutho-
203 Public Notices
ity may affect your rights as a creditor.
You may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

A man walks on a damaged street in Homs , Syria.
By Edith M. Lederer and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNITED NATIONS The ve permanent
members of the deeply divided U.N. Security
Council reached agreement Thursday on a
resolution to eliminate Syrias chemical
weapons arsenal, British and U.S. diplomats
said, and the full council was set to discuss it
Thursday night.
The agreement represents a major break-
through in addressing the 2 1/2-year con-
ict, which has killed more than 100,000
people.
Divisions among the permanent members
have paralyzed council action on Syria since
the conict began.
U.N. diplomats said this resolution would
be the rst legally binding one on Syria in
the conict if adopted, which now appears
virtually certain.
Britains U.N. ambassador, Mark Lyall
Grant, tweeted that Britain, France, the U.S.,
Russia and China had agreed on a binding
and enforceable draft ... resolution.
He said Britain would introduce the text to
the 10 other council members Thursday
night.
The U.S. and Russia had been at odds on
how to enforce the resolution, but Russias
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S.
Ambassador Samantha Power conrmed that
the last hurdles to agreement had been over-
come.
On Twitter, Power said the draft resolution
establishes that Syrias chemical weapons
is threat to international peace & security
& creates a new norm against the use of
CW.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and
Lavrov met in hastily scheduled, closed-door
talks Thursday afternoon at the United
Nations, and the agreement was announced
soon afterward.
The agreement came a day after Russias
deputy foreign minister said negotiators had
overcome a major hurdle and agreed that the
resolution would include a reference to
Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, which allows
for military and nonmilitary actions to pro-
mote peace and security.
The U.S. and Russia had been at odds on
how to enforce the resolution to secure and
dismantle Syrias chemical weapons.
In Moscow, Deputy Foreign Minister
Sergei Ryabkov offered to provide troops to
guard facilities where Syrias chemical
weapons would be destroyed.
The urry of diplomatic activity is in
response to an Aug. 21 poison gas attack
that killed hundreds of civilians in a
Damascus suburb, and President Barack
Obamas threat of U.S. strikes in retaliation.
After Kerry said Syrian President Bashar
Assad could avert U.S. military action by
turning over every single bit of his chemi-
cal weapons to international control within
a week, Russia, Syrias most important ally,
agreed. Kerry and Lavrov signed an agree-
ment in Geneva on Sept. 13.
U.N. Security Council reaches
a resolution on Syria weapons
By Matthew Lee and Lara Jakes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNITED NATIONS The U.S. and its
European allies said Thursday they were
pleased by a new tone and a significant
shift in attitude from Iran in talks aimed at
resolving the impasse over the countrys
disputed nuclear activities. Iran said it was
eager to dispel suspicions that it is trying
to develop a nuclear weapon and to get
punishing international sanctions lifted
as fast as possible.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad
Javad Zarif, who also had an unexpected
one-on-one meeting with U.S. Secretary of
State John Kerry, said six world powers
and Iran had agreed to fast-track nuclear
negotiations with the hope of reaching a
deal within a year.
Iran, the five permanent members of the
U.N. Security Council and Germany also
agreed to hold a new round of substantive
nuclear negotiations on Oct. 15-16 in
Geneva.
We agreed to jump-start the process so
that we could move forward with a view to
agreeing first on the parameters of the end
game ... and move toward finalizing it
hopefully within a years time, Zarif said
after the talks ended. I thought I was too
ambitious, bordering on naiveti. But I saw
that some of my colleagues were even
more ambitious and wanted to do it faster.
Kerry said he was struck by a very dif-
ferent tone from Tehran after their ses-
sions, which marked the highest-level
direct contact between the United States
and Iran in six years. But, like his
European colleagues, he stressed that a
single meeting was not enough to assuage
international concerns that Iran is seeking
to develop nuclear weapons under cover of
a civilian atomic energy program.
Needless to say, one meeting and a
change in tone, that was welcome, does
not answer those questions, Kerry told
reporters. All of us were pleased that the
foreign minister came today and that he did
put some possibilities on the table.
He said they agree to continue the
process and try to find concrete ways to
answer the questions that people have
about Irans nuclear activities.
Zarif and Kerry sat next to each other at a
U-shaped table during the group talks. It
was the highest-level direct contact
between the United States and Iran in six
years. EU foreign policy chief Catherine
Ashton suggested the two men had shaken
hands and been cordial with each other.
She also said the parties had agreed to
go forward with an ambitious timeframe.
Zarif said the meetings were very con-
structive and very substantive.
We hope to be able to make progress to
solve this issue in a timely fashion (and)
to make sure (there is) no concern that
Irans program is anything but peaceful,
he said. I am satisfied with this first
step, he added. Now we have to see
whether we can match our positive words
with serious deeds so we can move for-
ward.
He said the end result would have to
include a total lifting of the internation-
al sanctions that have devastated Irans
economy.
