BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Defense and prosecution attorneys
revealed at a hearing in PG&E Co.s crimi-
nal case in federal court in San Francisco
Monday that a grand jury is continuing an
investigation of the utility in what may be
a separate case.
Right now we view the (second possi-
ble) case as separate, Assistant U.S.
Attorney Hallie Hoffman told U.S. District
Judge Thelton Henderson.
No charges have been led in connection
with the current investigation.
In the existing criminal case, PG&E has
been indicted on one count of obstructing jus-
tice in a probe of a fatal pipeline explosion
and re in San Bruno in 2010 and 27 counts
of violating a federal pipeline safety law.
The utility was arraigned on that indict-
ment before a federal magistrate Monday
morning and through its lawyer, Steven
Bauer, entered a plea of not guilty.
The indictment issued by a federal grand
jury on July 29 was a superseding indict-
ment that added new counts to an earlier
indictment issued in April.
The continuing investigation was dis-
closed by Bauer Monday afternoon at a sta-
tus conference before U.S. District Judge
Thelton Henderson, the trial judge in the
existing criminal case.
Bauer said the utilitys natural gas divi-
sion received grand jury subpoenas after the
superseding indictment was announced. He
said PG&Es defense lawyers wanted to
know whether that investigation might lead

Adeputys fatal shooting of an 18-year-old schizophrenic

Bay Area loses billions
of water to leaky pipes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A new study of California records shows that Bay Area
water providers have been losing about 23 billion gallons
of water a year due to aging and broken pipes as the state
grapples with an historic drought.
Bay Area water agencies have lost from 3 percent to 16
percent of their treated water due to damaged underground
pipes. The bad pipes have leaked enough water annually to
meet the needs of 71,000 families for an entire year.

Owl enters 10th
story apartment, kills canary
COEUR DALENE, Idaho An owl
ew into a 10th story apartment in
Coeur dAlene, apparently opened a
bird cage and killed one of two canaries
inside, the residents said.
Sue Sausser said she awakened
Sunday to nd bird droppings and feath-
ers all over her apartment, the Coeur
dAlene Press reported
(http://bit.ly/1riwY).
Sausser found the brownish, yellow-
eyed owl between the wall and the chest
of drawers on which the bird cage sits.
It ew out the door and perched on their
balcony railing long enough for them
to take a few pictures. Don Sausser esti-
mated the owl was 6 to 8 inches tall.
Sue and Don Sausser found one of
their canaries dead in the cage. The
other seemed jumpy and anxious, they
said.
Beth Paragamian, wildlife education
specialist with for Idaho Fish and Game
and the Bureau of Land Management,
said its strange that an owl would be
ying so high in an area without many
tall trees and surprising that it would
enter a residence, much less open a bird
cage.
That is very unusual, she said.
Don Sausser said theyll likely still
leave their sliding glass door open on
warm summer evenings, but plan to use
twist ties to secure the door on the bird
cage.
Woman cited for
climbing into zoos giraffe pen
MADISON, Wis. Police say a
California woman was cited after
climbing into the giraffe exhibit at a
Madison zoo and getting kicked in the
face.
A police report says 24-year-old
Amanda Hall, of San Luis Obispo,
California, climbed over one fence and
almost got over the second fence of the
giraffe enclosure at the Henry Vilas Zoo
about 5:30 p.m. Saturday.
A 2-year-old, 12-foot-tall giraffe
named Wally gave Hall a lick, then
turned and kicked her in the face.
Zoo staff told police that giraffes are
capable of killing lions, so the woman
was fortunate that her injuries were not
life-threatening.
Police ticketed Hall for harassment of
zoo animals, which has a ne of $686.
The police report says Hall told of-
cers she climbed into the exhibit
because she loves giraffes.
Elderly man unharmed
after crashing car into pool
ALTADENA An 85-year-old man
was unharmed Saturday after he crashed
his car into a backyard pool, authori-
ties said.
Ofcers responded around 11:45 a.m.
to a report in Altadena of a car crashing
into a pool in the 2700 block of
Scripps Place, the Los Angeles County
Sheriffs Department told KNBC-TV.
The man was pulling into his garage
when the crash occurred, Los Angeles
County Fire Department Capt. Jeff
Sims told the San Gabriel Valley
Tribune.
The car went through a rear garage
door and into a backyard swimming
pool, ending up fully submerged, Sims
said.
Ofcials say the driver of the white
sedan was able to get out of the car
unharmed. No one else was in the car or
pool at the time.
The driver told authorities that his
ip-ops were entangled with the ped-
als and caused him to lose control of
his car.
The California Highway Patrol is
investigating the incident.

sider a cash-prize drawing as an incen-
tive to vote.

There will soon be even more food
options in downtown Burlingame with the
opening of RASA Contemporary Indian
on Park Road.
The new restaurant slated to open in
mid-September will be one of the only
Southern Indian food eateries along the
Peninsula. The owner, Ajay Walia, has run
Saffron Indian Bistro that serves Northern
Indian food in San Carlos. Although born in
Northern India, Walia has traveled through-
out the south for college, family business
and family vacations.
Northern Indian food will always be my
comfort food, he said. But Southern
Indian foods evoke so many childhood
memories that are special to me.
Walia formerly worked at tech companies
in Silicon Valley like Oracle and Cisco, but
gave up that life to fulll his dream of own-
ing a restaurant.
This is something I enjoy a lot more, he
said. This gives me a joy of meeting new
people every day and food is something
thats always been really close to me.
Indias Mediterranean-like southern cui-
sine is characterized by its seafood and veg-
etarian options, along with coconut and
tamarind. The menu is also inherently
gluten-free. RASA, which takes its name
from the Sanskrit word for essence, will
highlight the specialties from the area
bounded by the state of Goa. The word also
refers to the emotions depicted in dramatic
Indian dance, hence the image on the restau-
rants logo. Walia is excited about the team
and the neighborhood.
This is a community were familiar
with, he said. There is a good amount of
trafc. Burlingame doesnt have any good
Indian restaurants.
Walia secured the 2,600-square-foot space
a year ago, however, due to permit delays,
did not aggressively start the construction
until a few months ago. The two-story space
used to be another Indian restaurant, Roti
Indian Restaurant. The new restaurant will
seat roughly 80 people, with private dining
available for about 50.
The menu will feature several variations
of dosas, the rice and lentil crepe street
snack most associated with that cuisine.
Signature dishes include crisp idly chaat, a
reinterpretation of the classic snack.
Desserts are inspired, with choices such as
the warm mung bean cappuccino accented
by jaggery, roasted banana froth and cassia
and chilled elaneer payasam, tender coconut
with cardamom granita and pistachio
appalam crisp.
Located at 209 Park Road in Burlingame,
RASA will be open for lunch and dinner,
Tuesday through Sunday. Brunch also will
be available during the weekend. Small
plates will range from $5 to $14; large
plates $15 to $26; and desserts $5 to $8.

More than 1,500 residents and guests have been advised to
seek shelter in a community near Yosemite National Park.

SAN FRANCISCO Four men
charged with murder in the killing of a
German tourist visiting San Francisco
four years ago pleaded guilty to lesser
charges in a case officials said
Saturday was difcult to prosecute.
The San Francisco district attor-
neys office dropped the murder
charges Friday in exchange for guilty
pleas on gun and assault charges in
connection with the 2010 fatal shoot-
ing of Mechthild Schrver, DA
spokesman Alex Bastian said
Saturday.
Phillip Stewart, Delvon Scott and
Willie Eason, all 22, and Raheem
Jackson, 20, will serve between ve
and nine years in state prison after
reaching separate plea deals in San
Francisco Superior Court on Friday,
Bastian said.
Despite a grand jury indictment, the
case was tough to prosecute because
investigators had a hard time estab-
lishing who started the shooting due
to unreliable witnesses and a chaotic
crime scene, he said.
Investigators do not believe any of
the four men red the gun that killed
Schrver, prosecutors said.
The murder weapon was never
recovered and the evidence indicates
that it is highly unlikely that any of
the defendants red the fatal shot,
Bastian said. Seven people initially
had been accused in the shooting.
Schrver, an elementary school rec-
tor from Hannover, Germany, was in
San Francisco to celebrate her 50th
birthday and 25th wedding anniver-
sary with her husband, Stefan, when
she was shot during a wild exchange of
gunre between rival gangs outside a
comedy club in the citys touristy
Union Square on Aug. 10, 2010.
The couple were looking for a place
to eat about a block from their hotel
when Schrver was fatally shot in the
head, authorities said. They described
her as an innocent bystander in the
wrong place at the wrong time when
gunre erupted outside a private end-
of-summer teen dance party at the
comedy club.
The couple were visiting the United
States and had planned to leave San
Francisco two days later. Two others
were injured in the shooting.
Four take plea deals tied to
German tourists slaying
By Sudhin Thanawala
SAN FRANCISCO A Northern
California slaughterhouse involved in a
massive beef recall processed cows with
cancer while U.S. livestock inspectors
took lunch breaks and later distributed
the diseased cattle, according to federal
charges announced Monday.
Prosecutors alleged that the owners
of Petaluma-based Rancho Feeding
Corp. schemed with employees to
slaughter about 79 cows with skin can-
cer of the eye rather than stopping
plant operations during inspector
lunch breaks. Then, the government
alleges, plant workers swapped the
heads of diseased cattle with heads of
healthy cows to hide them from
inspectors.
Rancho operations were halted in
February after a series of recalls,
including one for 8.7 million pounds
of beef. The meat was sold at Walmart
and other national chains and used in
products, including Hot Pockets.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture
has said Rancho processed diseased
and unhealthy animals and circumvent-
ed federal inspection rules.
Slaughterhouse co-owners Jesse
Amaral Jr. and Robert Singleton and
employees Eugene Corda and Felix
Cabrera were charged with distribution
of adulterated, misbranded and unin-
spected meat.
Prosecutors said Cabrera and Corda
were among those involved in slaugh-
ter of cows with skin cancer of the eye
at Amaral and Singletons instructions
and concealing the disease from USDA
inspectors, resulting in distribution of
about 79 diseased cattle that did not
undergo full inspection.

California brush fire
prompts evacuations
GLENDORA One of several wildres burning across
California prompted widespread evacuations Monday in a
Central California foothill community near Yosemite
National Park, authorities said.
More than 1,500 residents and guests at four hotels near
the community of Oakhurst have been advised to seek shel-
ter in town, said Erica Stuart, a spokeswoman for the Madera
county Sheriffs Ofce. Oakhurst is about 16 miles away
from an entrance to Yosemite National Park.
Nearly 3,000 residents were notied by phone of the re
but not all of those people were told to leave their homes,
Stuart said.
The re has burned 200 acres, an area about 1/3 of a square
mile, state re spokesman Daniel Berlant said.
There have been no reports of injuries or destroyed build-
ings and the res cause remains unknown, Berlant said.
Also Monday, a surging wildre in Kern County some 50
miles northeast of Bakerseld was threatening buildings
and bringing evacuations.
The re in Wofford Heights near Lake Isabella has grown
to about slightly more than one square mile, or 800 acres,
the U.S. Forest Service said.
The murder weapon was never
recovered and the evidence indicates that it is highly
unlikely that any of the defendants red the fatal shot.

Fatal EPA shooting
victim IDd as 18-year-old man
A teen was killed when he was shot along with three
other people riding in a car together through East Palo
Alto on Sunday night, police said Monday.
Gunfire was reported near the corner of Purdue Street and
Georgetown Avenue at about 11:35 p.m. and police found
the four shooting victims there.
Nazario Barajas, 18, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The other three victims a 20-year-old woman, an 18-
year-old woman and an 18-year-old man were taken to
Stanford Hospital with injuries not considered life-threat-
ening, police said.
All four victims are residents of East Palo Alto.
They, along with two other people, had been driving in
the area when a suspect or suspects who have not been
identified shot at them.
Police are seeking witnesses in the case and are asking
anyone with information to call East Palo Alto police at
321-1112 or anonymously at 409-6792.
Man takes plea deal for hitting
friend with cylinder, stealing car
A Pleasanton man who reportedly used a rusted metal
cylinder he found on the ground to smack his friend before
stealing his car in San Mateo pleaded
no contest to felony assault with a dead-
ly weapon in return for up to a year in
jail.
Aaron Michael Hanna, 27, had been
in custody on $150,00 bail but was
released on his own recognizance after
taking the plea deal. He will head to the
DeLancy Street treatment program until
his Oct. 8 sentencing hearing.
Hanna was riding in the victims
black Honda Accord just before 3 p.m. March 2 when the
vehicle began to overheat, prompting the victim to pull
over at a gas station in the 800 block of North Delaware
Street in San Mateo.
The two men, who hadnt been friends for long, had
shared a meal together before the car began to overheat,
according to prosecutors.
While the victim, a 30-year-old San Bruno resident, was
tending to his vehicle by looking under the hood, Hanna
allegedly struck the victim with the cylinder, resulting in
a glancing blow to the neck, according to prosecutors.
The victims injuries were not life-threatening.
Hanna then took the victims Honda and drove away,
police said.
Officers found Hanna and the vehicle more than two
hours later in the area of San Bruno Avenue and Skyline
Boulevard in San Bruno, police said.

AUSTIN, Texas A Texas judge
opted Monday not to issue an arrest
warrant against Gov. Rick Perry, but
the Republican still faces the unatter-
ing prospect of being booked, nger-
printed and having his mug shot taken
and has assembled a team of high-
powered attorneys to fight the two
felony counts of abuse of power
against him.
Leading conservatives around the
country have mostly lined up to sup-
port the longest-serving governor in
Texas history, and Perrys aides said
the case wont derail his busy travel
schedule, which includes visits to sev-
eral key presidential
battleground states
as he continues to
eye a second run for
the White House in
2016.
This is nothing
more than banana
republic politics,
Tony Buzbee a
Ho u s t o n - b a s e d
defense attorney who will head a cadre
of four lawyers from Texas and
Washington defending Perry, said at a
news conference. The charges lobbed
against the governor are a really nasty
attack not only on the rule of law but
on the Constitution of the United
States, the state of Texas and also the
fundamental constitutional protec-
tions that we all enjoy.
Perry on Friday became the first
Texas governor since 1917 to be
indicted, and is facing charges of coer-
cion and ofcial oppression that carry
a maximum sentence of 109 years in
prison for carrying out a threat to veto
funding for the states public integrity
unit last summer.
The governor has emphatically
stood by his veto and denied all
wrongdoing. The judge overseeing the
case, Republican Bert Richardson,
decided against issuing an arrest war-
rant and instead the special prosecutor
appointed to the matter, Michael
McCrum, was planning a simple legal
summons.
No arrest for Gov. Perry,
but mug shot to be taken

DES MOINES, Iowa Hillary
Rodham Clinton will headline a high-
prole fundraiser next month in the
nations rst presidential caucus state of
Iowa, creating a big campaign splash as
Democrats scramble to hold a key
Senate seat in November and the former
secretary of state considers a campaign
of her own in 2016.
Former President Bill Clinton and
Mrs. Clinton will attend retiring Sen.
Tom Harkins annual
steak fry in
Indianola on Sept.
14, Iowa Democrats
said Monday. It will
be the former rst
ladys rst appear-
ance in Iowa since
2008 when she n-
ished a disappoint-
ing third in the
states presidential
caucuses.
Clinton has urged Democrats to mobi-
lize for Novembers midterm elections
and party ofcials said she would likely
appear at other events around the coun-
try to help the partys major fundraising
committees.
And Harkins steak fry, an event that
draws thousands of grassroots activists
each year, and future presidential cam-
paign staff and volunteers, could be
among the biggest, potentially serving
as the unofcial start of Clintons sec-
ond presidential bid.

WASHINGTON Calling for a
sharp separation between the
nations armed forces and local
police, President Barack Obama
on Monday urged a re-examina-
tion of programs that have
equipped civilian law enforcement
departments with military gear
from the Pentagon.
The transfers have come under
public scrutiny after the forceful
police response to racially
charged unrest in Ferguson,
Missouri.
Amid video images of well-
armed police confronting protest-
ers with combat weapons and
other surplus military equipment,
Obama said it would be useful to
review how local law enforcement
agencies have used federal grants
that permit them to obtain heavier
armaments.
There is a
big difference
between our
military and our
local law
enf or cement ,
and we dont
want those
lines blurred,
Obama told
reporters at the White House.
That would be contrary to our tra-
ditions.
Obamas remarks came as he
called for understanding in the face
of anger in Ferguson in the wake
of a police shooting of an unarmed
18-year-old black man. Obama
said the vast majority of protest-
ers in the St. Louis suburb were
peaceful, but said that a small
minority was undermining justice
for the shooting victim, Michael
Brown.
Obama: Time to review local police militarization
By Jesse Washington
The U.S. Department of
Justice has mounted an unusual-
ly swift and aggressive response
to the death of Michael Brown,
from an independent autopsy to
dozens of FBI agents combing
Ferguson, Missouri, for wit-
nesses to the shooting of the
unarmed black 18-year-old by a
white police officer.
The goal, legal observers say,
is to ensure that the truth about
the killing is revealed, to ease
racial tensions, and to reassure
those fearing a cover-up that
justice will be done.
Brown was shot dead in the
street in the St. Louis suburb on
Aug. 9. Gov. Jay Nixon asked
for a federal investigation two
days later, after riots erupted
when the county police force
confronted protesters with
armored vehicles, tear gas and
dogs. After the images of the
military-style police response
drew widespread criticism, fed-
eral officials said they were
coaching local authorities on
different tactics.
On Saturday, 40 FBI agents
started going door-to-door in
the neighborhood where the
shooting took place, interview-
ing witnesses and gathering
information. An independent
federal autopsy was announced
Sunday, and Attorney General
Eric Holder said it was per-
formed Monday. President
Barack Obama also announced
Monday that Holder would trav-
el to Ferguson to meet with
investigators and community
leaders.

KIEV, Ukraine Ukraine
accused pro-Russia separatists of
killing dozens of civilians in an
attack early Monday on a convoy
eeing a besieged rebel-held city.
The rebels denied any attack took
place, while the U.S. conrmed the
shelling of the convoy but said it
did not know who was responsible.
The refugees were attacked with
Grad rockets and other weapons
imported from Russia as their con-
voy traveled on the main road lead-
ing from Russia to the rebel-held
city of Luhansk, Col. Andriy
Lysenko, a spokesman for
Ukraines National Security
Council, told reporters.
Many people were killed,
among them women and children,
Lysenko said of the attack, which
occurred between the towns of
Khryashchuvate and
Novosvitlivka. We are not able to
count the death toll at this point.
When asked about a rough esti-
mate of deaths, he said dozens.
Oleksiy Dmytrashkivsky, a
spokesman for the Ukrainian gov-
ernments military operation in
the east, later told the Associated
Press that 15 bodies had been
recovered from the smoldering
vehicles and servicemen were col-
lecting the body parts of at least 10
more people.

BAGHDAD Iraqi and Kurdish forces
recaptured Iraqs largest dam from Islamic
militants Monday following dozens of U.S.
airstrikes, President Barack Obama said, in
the first major defeat for the extremists
since they swept across the country this
summer.
Militants from the Islamic State group
had seized the Mosul Dam on Aug. 7, giving
them access and control of enormous power
and water reserves and threatening to deny
those resources to much of Iraq.
Iraqi forces suffered a string of humiliat-
ing defeats at the hands of the Islamic State
as the extremists took over large parts of
northern and western Iraq and sent religious
minorities eeing.
The militants battlefield victories
brought U.S. forces back into the conict
for the rst time since it withdrew its troops
in 2011 and reected the growing interna-
tional concern about the Sunni extremist
group. Washington launched attacks from
its warplanes and drones on Aug. 8.
Pope Francis endorsed the use of force to
stop the Islamic militants from attacking
religious minorities in Iraq, although he
said the international community not
just one country should decide how to
intervene.
Obama called recapturing the dam by Iraqi
and Kurdish forces a major step forward in
the battle against Islamic State militants.
Had the dam been breached, it could have
had catastrophic consequences and endan-
gered U.S. Embassy personnel in Baghdad,
Obama said at the White House. He said the
U.S. is urgently providing arms and assis-
tance to Iraqi security forces as well as
Kurdish ghters ghting the extremists.
Weve got a national security interest in
making sure our people are protected and in
making sure that a savage group that seems
willing to slaughter people for no rhyme or
reason other than they have not kowtowed
that a group like that is contained,
because ultimately it can pose a threat to
us, Obama told reporters.
He also urged the badly fractured and large-
ly dysfunctional Iraqi government to move
quickly to forge a united front. He noted last
weeks decision by Nouri al-Maliki to step
down as Iraqs prime minister, a move that
raised hopes a new government could roll
back Iraqs powerful Sunni insurgency and
prevent the country from splitting apart.
Theyve got to get this done because the
wolfs at the door, Obama said.
There were conflicting statements
throughout the day from the Kurdish com-
manders, the Iraqi military in Baghdad, the
Pentagon and the militants of the Islamic
State group over who was in control of the
strategic 2.1-mile dam that spans the Tigris
River. Completed in 1986 under Saddam
Hussein, it includes a sprawling complex
with power generators, ofces and employ-
ee housing. The southern end is mostly
reserved for housing and ofces.
Before Obama spoke, Kurdish forces
spokesman Halgurd Hekmat said the pesh-
merga regained full control of the dam and
its surrounding facilities following two
days of erce clashes. But Iraqs Defense
Ministry said security forces only liberated
a large part of the Mosul Dam with the help
of U.S. airstrikes, adding that forces had not
freed the entire complex.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
Kansas City Star
T
he scenes and reports coming out
of Ferguson and some of the other
hardscrabble parts of north St.
Louis County are ugly and surreal, like
something happening in another time or a
different part of the world.
This urban swath of Missouri has sudden-
ly come to resemble a military zone, as
heavily armed riot police face off against
civilians, many of whom stand their
ground with hands in the air and rage on
their faces.
The fury that began when a Ferguson
police ofcer shot an unarmed teenager, 18-
year-old Michael Brown, has manifested
itself in demonstrations in the days since.
Some looting and vandalism have
occurred, which only serve to detract from
the urgent need to nd out what happened.
But police must not make a bad situation
worse. Reports of ofcers using tear gas
and rubber bullets on citizens who were
doing nothing more than trying to make
their way home are extremely concerning.
Police in Ferguson and north St. Louis
County have a lot of hard work ahead to
repair relations with citizens. They need to
keep the peace and protect peoples proper-
ty but with the least show of force required.
Also very worrisome are continued
demands to name the police ofcer who
shot Brown. An Internet vigilante group on
Tuesday threatened to release information
about the whereabouts of family members
of the Ferguson police chief if the name of
the ofcer continued to be withheld.
It is true that Michael Brown had no
choice but to be named as the latest
unarmed young black man to be killed by a
law enforcement ofcer. But the quest for
justice in his name will not be served by
further violence. The identity of the police
ofcer will come out in due course; right
now the volatility of the situation justies
the decision to withhold it.
Brown, a recent high school graduate, is
being described by his teachers at
Normandy High School as a gentle giant.
He was to have started classes at a technical
college on Monday.
Based on reections by people who knew
him, there is little in Browns background
to square with the accusation offered by
Ferguson police that he reached into a
police cruiser and struggled for the ofcers
gun. Browns companion has offered a dis-
turbing version of events that portrays the
ofcer as the aggressor. Whatever the truth,
it is safe to say that Brown should not have
died on Saturday.
There is little reason now for Browns
family or many people anguishing over his
death to express faith in the rule of law. But
it is the best hope for recourse that we have
in America. Attorneys with the civil rights
division of the U.S. Justice Department are
working with the FBI on an investigation
separate from a probe underway by the St.
Louis County police. If Browns death was
as unprovoked as his companions account
suggests, the ofcer involved must be
brought to trial.
Meanwhile, we must listen to the people
who have raised their hands in solidarity
with Michael Brown. He is not an isolated
incident but yet another symbol of the
indignities and dangers that black people
continue to face in America. The nation
ignores those voices at its peril.
The persecuted minority
Editor,
In his letter The issue of private proper-
ty (in the Aug. 15 edition of the Daily
Journal), Steven Howard says we shouldnt
force billionaire Vinod Khosla to open his
gate to the ocean. He compares Mr. Khoslas
situation to owners not wanting to open
their backyard pool on their land.
With Mr. Kholslas wealth, I guess some
would make the comparison of the Pacic
Ocean to a backyard pool. He could afford to
buy up most of the available land on the
coast and truly turn it into his lap pool;
that was an apt comparison by the astute
Mr. Howard.
The unfairness of laws requiring public
coastal access for the unwashed at the
expense of persecuted billionaires resounds
mightily across the hallowed lawns of
Malibu and other bastions of property
rights. I encourage Mr. Howard to further
take this dening test of human rights to the
United Nations if necessary. Though they
have their hands full with the plight of the
Yazidis in Iraq, it is obvious whose plight is
more perilous and Im sure they will turn
their full attention to this persecuted minor-
ity.
John Dillon
San Bruno
Policeman and babysitter
Editor,
Its bad enough that our countrys leaders
think that it is necessary for America to be
the worlds policeman for the last 60 plus
years, but now we are the worlds babysitter.
Apparently, during the last six months or
so, 50,000 plus illegal immigrant children
have attempted to cross into our country
from several Central American countries.
Central American families are sending their
children to America because of the danger-
ous conditions in their own countries.
The dangerous conditions including
gangs, drug cartels, shootings, general law-
lessness and poverty are all problems
because of weak, inept governments and
their wealthy 1 percent in these Central
American countries. These same govern-
ments receive millions of dollars from the
United States each year in the form of eco-
nomic and military aid. (America is just try-
ing to buy their friendship.) The problem is
compounded by the United States because
our country doesnt require any accountabili-
t y. Its like giving these governments a
blank check, and then they spend the money
on themselves instead of taking care of their
fellow citizens.
I am just as much of a humanitarian as the
next guy, but this is not what American tax-
payers pay their taxes for. The solution is in
these particular Central American countries,
not in the United States. American leaders
need to learn how to say no to these ille-
gal immigrants and effectively protect our
borders.

Self-destructive disdain
Editor,
If Mike Caggiano, in his letter State of
affairs (published in the Aug. 12 edition of
the Daily Journal), was more interested in
identifying real evil to be confronted in our
world rather than complaining about why
hes depressed about world affairs in gener-
al, a photo that has gone viral globally
would have been a good place to start. It
shows the 7-year-old son of a radical-
ized Australian Muslim fighting in Syria,
holding up a severed head. The signifi-
cance of that picture cant be underesti-
mated.
This young mind has been permanently
damaged by education of intolerance, as
have thousands of others. This is what is
truly depressing.
The profound evil of the culture of death
represented by Hamas, Fatah, Al Qaeda,
ISIS, Boko Haram, et al. And their sup-
porters are everywhere, all birds of a
feather, and arguably the most destructive
force in the world today. Mr. Caggiano is
mute about that evil, indicated by his
labeling of Israelis as colonizers he
knows no one would behead him for that.
Islamic extremism and terrorism are one
and the same. The theoretically peaceful
Muslim majority is irrelevant if they are
too afraid to destroy the evil under their
noses and in our faces. To emphasize the
point, Hamas latest negotiating position
is Jihad now or Jihad later. Not much
wiggle room there.
Mr. Caggianos disdain for the enemies
of this evil is self-destructive, and he
doesnt seem to get it.

Happy birthday!
A
ctually happy birthday to us and
by us I mean the entire Daily
Journal family. As of Monday, the
Peninsulas little paper that could turned
the big 1-4. Thats right; we survived the
terrible twos, squeezed through years of
tweendom and are ofcially in our teenage
years.
If the paper
were an actual
teenager it
would be whin-
ing about not
receiving One
Direction con-
cert tickets as
a gift and
blowing up
Facebook,
Instagram,
Twitter and
social sites far
too cool for adults to know about with
seles and proclamations that OMG!!!!
Cant believe its my bday!! #partytime.
We would be old enough to stay at home
on our own but not quite old enough to
drive. Wed be in that age range when we
dont want to be seen with anyone vaguely
related to us unless they come equipped
with a credit card and even then lets hope
they drop us a full two blocks from the
mall. God forbid anybody actually see us
needing a lift from mom or dad rather than
having an older friend to play chauffeur.
We would feel all grown up already but
actual adulthood might still feel light
years away.
Being a part of this news adventure
called the Daily Journal for the better part
of its life span is kind of like that, too.
Except, instead of One Direction tickets I
think all we really want is a a perfect edi-
tion without typos or missing story
jumps. Every ad would be a breeze to sell
and every letter to the editor would sing
our praises. And we would probably not
head to the mall. Ever tell a journalist to
hit the shopping centers early the day after
Thanksgiving for a Black Friday madness
article? Shudder.
At 14, it doesnt feel like the Daily
Journal is the new kid on the block any-
more. We crawled, we toddled into solid
walking, had some growth spurts, proba-
bly threw some tantrums, went through a
few design revamps (I like to think of this
as getting our braces off) and is now the
coolest guy at the junior high dance.
Maybe.
We are not that far different than any
other Silicon Valley venture, moving from
the hardscrabble beginning when nobody
beyond a small circle even knew what we
were or what we did to years later when the
name on the door needs no explanation.
We have yet to become a verb like Google
Im not even sure what telling some one
to go Daily Journal it would even mean
but we are far from an unknown quantity
anymore. Its rare or at least, more rare
that we are confused by sources or read-
ers with like-sounding publications. I
cant recall the last time somebody asked
in that low post-funeral tone, How are
you guys doing? as though they had
already mentally composed the epitaph
and pounded the nal nail in the local
news biz cofn.
Fourteen might not sound like that big a
deal to those whove surpassed the mark
but to me and I think its safe to say the
rest of us here at the Daily Journal its a
pretty important passing of another year
still thriving, still delivering quality cov-
erage news and still making our way in the
world. The question now is what the future
holds. Like any 14-year-old, weve got
many more good years ahead and the skys
the limit.

Big movers
By Steve Rothwell
NEW YORK Corporate deal news
gave the US stock market a lift on
Monday as a bidding contest erupted for
a discount retailer. Stocks also climbed
amid reports of diplomatic efforts to
broker a cease-re in the conict in
Ukraine.
Dollar General jumped after making a
bid for retailer Family Dollar, a rival
discount store. The offer topped a bid
made last month by Dollar Tree, anoth-
er discount retailer. Airlines were also
among the big gainers as the price of
oil slumped.
The stock market is bouncing back
after a bout of summer volatility pushed
the Standard & Poors 500 down earlier
this month to its lowest level since
May. The index is now less than 1 per-
cent below its record close of 1,987
reached on July 24. Investors had
become skittish on concerns that the
tensions between Russia and Ukraine
were escalating.
Investors are focusing back on earn-
ings and fundamentals and not as wor-
ried about some of those geopolitical
pressures right now, said Chris
Gaffney, a senior market strategist at
Everbank Wealth Management.
The S&P 500 rose 16.68 points, or
0.9 percent, to 1,971.74. The Dow
Jones industrial average gained 175.83
points, or 1.1 percent, to 16,838.74.
The Nasdaq composite gained 43.39
points, or 1 percent, to 4,508.31.
Dollar General was the biggest gainer
in the S&P 500. The companys stock
rose $6.68, or 11.6 percent, to $64.14
after it made a $8.95 billion bid to buy
Family Dollar. Thats higher than the
$8.5 billion bid that Dollar Tree made
for Family Dollar last month.
Sterne Agee recommended buying
Dollar Generals stock, saying that the
company could benet from signi-
cantly higher earnings following the
acquisition.
Family Dollar, the target of the bid,
also jumped on the news, climbing
$3.75, or 5 percent, to $79.81. Dollar
Tree fell $1.34, or 2 percent, to
$54.26.
Airline stocks were among the gain-
ers as well after the price of oil fell to its
lowest level since April as fears of sup-
ply disruptions from Iraq eased. Fuel is
a big component of airlines costs.
Southwest Airlines rose $1.06, or 4
percent, to $30.82. United Continental
climbed $1.83, also 4 percent, to
$47.84.
Despite the increased volatility
caused by the tensions in Ukraine and
elsewhere, stocks are still an attractive
investment, said Dan Curtin, a global
investment specialist for JPMorgan
Private Bank.
Ination remains and low and corpo-
rate earnings remain strong. Earnings
growth in the second quarter was 10.2
percent for companies in the S&P 500,
compared to 4.9 percent in the same
period a year ago and 3.4 percent in the
rst quarter, according to data from S&P
Capital IQ.
Later this week investors will focus
the Federal Reserve. Policy makers are
winding down their economic stimulus
and will likely start to raise interest
rates at some point next year.
On Wednesday, the Fed will release
the minutes from its July policy meet-
ing and on Friday Fed Chair Janet
Yellen will give a speech at an annual
conference of central bankers, policy
experts and academics from around the
world at Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Yellen is expected to reafrm her
position in a speech Friday that slack
remains in the labor market and that the
Fed will keep monetary policy loose to
address the problem, said Katie Nixon,
chief investment officer for Wealth
Management at Northern Trust.
The Federal Reserve is in no hurry to
raise rates, said Nixon. We expect
more of the same and think it will be
very supportive to nancial markets.

SAN FRANCISCO Googles IPO, a
decade ago this week, launched the company
on a trajectory that continues to reshape its
business and much of the world in its orbit.
And CEO Larry Page is determined to push
even further.
Pages vision is that Googles products
and services will become the control center
of peoples lives: The companys driverless
cars will chauffeur people around safer roads
and deliver goods within hours of an online
order. People wont even have to bother
leaving their homes, which will be made
more comfortable and enjoyable through
the use of smart appliances. Robots will
handle tedious chores and other jobs, free-
ing up time for people to enjoy lives pro-
longed by health-management tools and
disease-ghting breakthroughs engineered
by Google. Internet-connected eyewear and
watches will supplement the smartphones
that ensure Google is a constant companion
capable of anticipating questions and
desires.
Googles big bets are fueled by Pages
belief that ... incrementalism leads to irrel-
evance over time, especially in technology,
because change tends to be revolutionary,
not evolutionary, he wrote in May in
Googles annual letter to shareholders.
Although Page has been taking risks
since he co-founded Google with Sergey
Brin 1998, the stakes probably wouldnt be
as high if not for the companys pivotal IPO
on Aug. 19, 2004.
Besides raising about $1.2 billion in
cash, the IPO empowered Google Inc. with a
stock that the company used to attract more
brainy engineers and buy promising compa-
nies such as YouTube. Google now employs
52,000 workers, some 20 times more than
at the time of the IPO and has snapped up
more than 250 companies in the past 10
years.
The ambitious expansion has extended
Googles empire far beyond the inuential
search engine that processes more than 100
billion queries each month and still brings
in most of the companys projected $67 bil-
lion in revenue this year. Google is also a
leader in email, Web browsers, Internet
video and mobile computing now.
The company already has amassed so
much power that it has been the subject of
broad antitrust investigations in the U.S.
and Europe amid allegations that it uses its
size and stature to stie competition. The
Federal Trade Commission absolved Google
of wrongdoing last year while the European
Commission is still examining the issue.
ROCKYROAD TO WALL STREET
When Google led its IPO paperwork in
April 2004, the iconoclasm of Page and
Brin shone through the legalese and stan-
dard boilerplate language. The duo included
an owners manual that declared Googles
intent to remain an unconventional compa-
ny that pampered its employees, made risky
gambles on long-term projects at the
expense of short-term earnings growth and
paid little heed to the unwritten Wall Street
rules that prod executives to offer nancial
forecasts each quarter.
In another break from tradition, Page and
Brin set up a bidding process known as a
Dutch auction designed to give a larger
pool of investors an opportunity to deter-
mine the IPO price and buy the stock before
it began trading on Nasdaq. This differed
from the usual system that depends on
bankers to set the IPO price and distribute
the pre-trading shares to their preferred
clients, who often expected to get them at a
slight discount.

Devin Joos nal day of summer break was
anything but fun in the sun.
With school starting Tuesday for the
Menlo-Atherton senior, Joos spent the
morning seeing off her older brother
Lawson as he departed for the University of
Arizona. Then in the afternoon, she wound
down by hitting the M-A gym for the nal
round of double-day tryouts.
Entering her second year with the Bears
after transferring from St. Francis last sea-
son, Joos was at the top of the list of play-
ers tabbed to make the 13-player varsity
squad, and for good reason. Shes a high-
intensity player, a little rough around the
edges, but capable of big things.
Just look at her performance against
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
rival Woodside last season. Joos scored 39
kills against the Wildcats on Oct. 15 last
season in just her third match of the season,
after sitting out the rst half of the year due
to transfer rules. And according to Menlo-
Atherton head coach Ron Whitmill, Joos
scored the career-high kills total while
being sick with the u.
Shes a tough kid, Whitmill said. Shes
been durable. Last year she had (almost) 40
kills against Woodside and had the u that
day. She went into the bathroom and threw
up as soon as it was over.
Joos was equally as tough soldiering
through the summer with her Vision 17 Gold
club team despite twice spraining her ankle.
While playing in Los Angeles during the
teams second qualier match of the season,
Joos turned her ankle on the oor and was
diagnosed with a high ankle sprain.
After nearly a month of downtime, she
decidedly got back on the oor by wrapping
the ankle with so much athletic tape it
looked like a makeshift cast. Then a week
prior to the USAV Girls Junior National
Championships held June 29 to July 2 in
Minneapolis, Joos re-sprained the ankle.
She played through the pain at Junior
Nationals, but Vision nished a disappoint-
ing 23rd in the nation.

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL
Menlo-Atherton senior outside hitter Devin Joos is looking to lead the Bears to their sixth
straight postseason appearance.
M
any say that the NFL preseason
doesnt mean anything. It
means nothing if your team is
playing well during the exhibition season.
The 49ers, unfortunately, are not one of
those teams right now. San Francisco cur-
rently sits with a 0-2 record during the
preseason and while the win-loss record
denitely doesnt matter right now, what
does matter is how
the 49ers are playing
as they prepare for
the upcoming sea-
son.
And right now, the
49ers stink. Through
two games, they
have managed a pal-
try three points
while having allowed
57. The only thing
worse than the 49ers
offense right now is the defensive play.
Leaky offensive and defensive lines,
shaky secondary play, lack of quality
quarterback play and just a general atmos-
phere of blah or blech, take your
pick.
Now I know the rst-string players
generally dont see much action during
the preseason and many of the starters
havent even seen the eld yet. Trying to
avoid injury and all that. But San
Francisco simply has to show more on
both sides of the ball if the 49ers truly
want to get where they want to go
namely, the Super Bowl.
The preseason is meant for teams to
nd out what they have backing up their
1s and were nding out the 49ers depth
which has been among the best in the
NFL in recent seasons may not be all
its cracked up to be this season.
The offensive line is currently missing
two starters right tackle Anthony
Davis (injury) and right guard Adam
Boone (holdout) and their replace-
ments havent shown much. The running
game appears to be in good hands with
Frank Gore and Carlos Hyde, but if the o-
line is in shambles, how effective can

ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders rookie quar-
terback Derek Carr returned to practice three
days after being knocked out of a preseason
game with a concussion and sore ribs.
Carr practiced on a limited basis Monday
and his status for the upcoming exhibition
game in Green Bay on Friday night remains a
question.
Carr got hurt in the fourth quarter last
Friday against Detroit when he was hit from
behind by Larry Webster.
Carr got up and immedi-
ately pointed at his ribs
but later said the concus-
sion was more of a con-
cern. Carr has never had a
concussion previously in
his career.
I never had one ever so
its a little scary to me,
he said. Obviously, Im
feeling a lot better now than I was. Im just
looking forward to taking it day by day.
Obviously, its a slow process. Just pro-
gressing as the week goes on.
Carr played well before the injury and even
got one drive with the starting offensive line
and receivers after starter Matt Schaub left
the game.
It was exciting, he said. I was scream-
ing out plays. I was way too loud, they told
me to calm down a little bit. It was great. It
was good experience to be in with them. Its
only the second game. I have a long way to
get better.
Carr lamented one throw in particular,
when he overthrew Brian Leonhardt on a
seam pattern on his rst pass attempt of the
game. Carr said he might have been too
excited on that throw and his mechanics got
out of whack. But Carr recovered to complete
9 of 16 passes for 109 yards and he threw a
TD pass to Jake Murphy.
Playing mostly against second-teamers,
Carr fared better than Schaub did against the
Lions rst-string defense.
Schaub has led the Raiders to one score in

LANDOVER, Md. Johnny Manziel and
Brian Hoyer didnt make Mike Pettines deci-
sion any easier. Good luck picking a starting
quarterback after this mess, Coach.
Manziel struggled to hit open receivers and
added another gesture to his repertoire a
middle finger apparently aimed at the
Washington Redskins bench while Hoyer
completed only two passes in ve series.
Neither the hot-shot rookie nor the nonde-
script sixth-year veteran looked ready to
claim a No. 1 NFL gig, failing to live up to
the big-time setting of a nal audition in the
Cleveland Browns24-23 Monday night loss
to the Washington Redskins.
Pettine has said he plans to announce his
regular season starter Tuesday. His choices
are Manziel, the No. 22 overall pick in the
draft who completed 7 of 16 passes for 65
yards and an touchdown, and Hoyer, who was
2 for 6 for 16 yards.
And those stats were padded by series against
the Redskins backups. In the rst quarter
when Washingtons starters were in the game
Manziel was 2 for 7 for 29 yards, while
Hoyer was 0 for 2. Manziel was even mocked
by Redskins linebacker Brian Orakpo, who
raised both hands and performed the 2012
Heisman Trophy winners money gesture
after a sack by teammate Ryan Kerrigan.
Manziel appeared to have a message of his
own for the Redskins. He raised the middle
nger of his right hand as he jogged away
from the Washington sideline after a play
late in the third quarter.
To be fair, the rst two passes by Hoyer
could be classied as drops by his receivers,
but he also failed to move the team when an
interception gave the Browns the ball at
Washingtons 15 in the second quarter. After
a running play and two incompletions,
including a pass high and through the hands
of Andrew Hawkins in the end zone,
Cleveland had to settle for a eld goal.
Looking for a hint as to which way Pettine
is leaning? Its worth noting that Hoyer
started for the second consecutive game and
played mostly with the rst-team offense,
while Manziel was sent out with the backups
to play in the second half. Manziel took
advantage by leading a 16-play, 68-yard
drive capped by an 8-yard pass to Dion Lewis
for Clevelands rst touchdown.
In a sloppy game that included 21 penal-
ties and ve turnovers, anyone using a nick-
name like Johnny Football at times
seemed like an insult to the sport. The
Browns were particularly susceptible to the
NFLs new emphasis on hindering receivers:
Clevelands defense was whistled ve times
for holding or illegal contact in the rst quar-
ter alone, including twice on one play.
The Redskins dont have a quarterback
competition, but their former Heisman win-
ner Robert Grifn III also needs some
work to get to regular season form. He n-
ished 6 for 8 for 112 yards, including an
unwise off-balance throw that was picked off
by Joe Haden. RG3s three drives ended with
a fumbled pitch by Alfred Morris, the inter-
ception, and a goal-line stuff by the Browns
defense when Morris was unable to punch it
on four runs from rst-and-goal from the 3.
The designed runs are being marginalized
under new Redskins coach Jay Gruden, but
Grifn was nevertheless hit hard several
times as he scrambled four times for 24 yards.
At least the game had an exciting ending.
Connor Shaw hit Emmanuel Ogbuehi on a
45-yard Hail Mary at time expired. The
Browns 2-point conversion attempt failed.

Daniel Vigorens go-ahead double and two
errors by the Czech Republic helped Rapid
City, South Dakota, win 5-3 at the Little

Vigoren hit a line drive to the right eld
gap after Colton Hartford scored the tying
run when he got in a rundown between third
and home and Czech Republic pitcher Tomas
Oppelt made a throwing error to third base.
Vigoren later scored on an overthrow by
Czech Republic shortstop Marek Krejcirik.
Czech Republics Miroslav Krivanek tied
the game at 2 in the top of the fth with a
bloop RBI double into shallow right eld.
Krivanek took third on the throw and

bat. In the third inning, Rapid City took

By Michael Marot
INDIANAPOLIS The NCAAs best argu-
ment against the Ed OBannon ruling may
be the nancial limits imposed by U.S.
District Judge Claudia Wilken the same
ones the NCAAlauded in her decision.
Less than two weeks after the court deci-
sion opened the door for college athletes to
receive a small portion of the millions of
dollars they help generate, several attor-
neys told The Associated Press they believe
the NCAA should now attack that cap.
Wilken ruled Aug. 8 that the NCAAviolated
antitrust law by restricting schools from
providing money beyond current scholar-
ship limits to athletes.
She said schools should be allowed to put
up to $5,000 per year of competition into a
trust fund for football players and mens
basketball players, money that could be
collected once they are finished with
school.
Legal experts question how she reached
that number and wonder whether it will hold
up on appeal.
The cap is inconsistent with a judicial
decision that the restraint (of trade) is unrea-
sonable, said Robert McTamaney, an
antitrust lawyer with the rm of Carter,
Ledyard & Milburn. If the restraint is
unreasonable out it goes, theres no partial
remedy under the Sherman Act and, frankly,
judges arent supposed to construct one.
Either its good or its not.
Within an hour of the ruling, NCAAchief
legal ofcer Donald Remy issued a state-
ment noting that the governing body dis-
agreed with the ruling but supported the cap.
The NCAA, which faces a Wednesday dead-
line to appeal the decision, declined to com-
ment Monday.
Wilken said she set the $5,000 annual
threshold to balance the NCAAs fears about
huge payments to players.
The number is immaterial, its the con-
cept, said Jim Ryan, an attorney at Cullen
and Dykman. It does seem rather arbitrary.
Why isnt it $3,000 or $10,000? She pulled
the $5,000 somewhat out of the air, so it
could be $3,000, it could be $10,000,
whats a few thousand?
In October 2011, the NCAA Board of
Directors approved a $2,000 annual stipend
for athletes, legislation that was shelved
when more than 125 schools signed on to
an override measure. The ve richest confer-
ences are attempting to bring back the
stipend now that they have been given
autonomy over some of the trickiest issues
in college sports.
McTamaney believes if the stipend were
already in place and Wilken applied the
same logic to the OBannon case, the NCAA
might have already won in court.
Instead, the NCAA is headed back to a
playing eld where it has traditionally been
successful.
According to a study released last month
by Illinois professor Michael LeRoy, ath-
letes suing the NCAAwon 49 percent of the
initial cases but the NCAA won 71 percent
of the appeal in the second and third rounds.
This time, the governing bodys lawyers
face a vastly different obstacle. The appeal,
promised by NCAAPresident Mark Emmert,
will be heard by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court,
a venue that has a reputation for siding with
labor. Remy has repeatedly said the NCAA
will take this case to the U.S. Supreme
Court if necessary.
If the ruling stands, some worry it could
ruin non-revenue sports and others believe
the NCAA could face additional litigation
from female athletes who could argue they
are not being compensated equally in viola-
tion of Title IX laws.
Still, NCAA critics contend Wilkens
decision didnt go far enough in compensat-
ing players for the merchandise and video
games that have produced millions in rev-
enue for the NCAA and its members but not
for the athletes themselves. Joseph Farelli,
an attorney with Pitta & Giblin who spe-
cializes in labor law, argues there should be
no cap at all. Hes not alone.
I think how the court framed its injunc-
tion, exposed itself to some vulnerability,
said Jeffrey Shinder, managing partner of
Constantine Cannon and a self-described
NCAA critic who declined to go into
specics because he didnt want to give the
NCAAany advice.
Even NCAA supporters understand the
rationale that if antitrust laws were broken,
the players options should not be limited.
But theyre urging the NCAAattorneys to
question Wilkens reasoning in setting the
cap and continue to argue that college
sports will be damaged if players are paid.
I think the key to this case is whether
these restraints are reasonable or not. I per-
sonally think that they are, McTamaney
said. If the athletes turn out to be compen-
sated for their performances, the fan percep-
tion and alumni perception, I think, would
be dramatically different. I think their sup-
port of the schools would decline signi-
cantly. And all of that sort of comes full cir-
cle, because if the restraints are substantial
to keeping the ction of the student-athlete,
then they are reasonablee.
NCAAs strongest argument might be cap limit
ankle is now 100 percent.
Shes been a tough kid for us. So, Im not
worried about her, Whitmill said. Shes
going to show up; shes going to do her
thing.
When Joos does her thing, its entertain-
ing to watch. She walks onto the court
bringing with her one of the most powerful
swings in the PAL as well as one of the
most condent swaggers.
Its funny, a lot of people throughout the
years have had positive and negative ran-
dom comments about what they think I feel
when I play. And honestly, when I play, I
dont really think, Joos said. Its denite-
ly something I think about if things are not
going smoothly, but otherwise Im just
doing my own thing just uid.
At times, things didnt go Menlo-
Athertons way last season, especially with
the health of star outside hitter Pauli King.
Now on roster as a freshman at Princeton,
King was slowed by a recurring shoulder
injury last season. She still managed to land
All-League honors and lead M-A to its fth
straight Central Coast Section appearance.
And Joos recognizes she has big shoes to
ll this season with the departure of King.
A lot of the girls look up to her, Joos
said. She is denitely a volleyball icon at
the school. Shes kind of the face of volley-
ball for M-A. Im denitely trying to just
step in and follow in her footsteps and cre-
ate just as good of a vibe and energy that M-
Aentitles.
In addition to being looked to as one of
the team leaders this year, Joos will be tak-
ing on an expanded role as well. While she
struggled with her defense and back row
play at times last season, the star senior
will be counted on as a six-rotation player,
according to Whitmill.
I think were going to need her more than
we needed her last year, Whitmill said. I
think her and Pauli, they always had the lux-
ury of having another player with them.
This year, Devin is going to be our only one
true, big hitter.
Not that M-Adoesnt have a solid founda-
tion of returning players. Joos projects as a
potential Division I college talent. So does
junior opposite hitter Leanna Collins, who
as a sophomore last season paced the Bears
with a .303 kill percentage in the midst of
the superstar repower of King and Joos.
I think were in pretty good shape,
Whitmill said. We have a lot of talented
kids. I think were going to do really good.
I think we have a very good chance of being
the top team in the PAL.
And so what if Joos didnt get to enjoy
any fun in the sun on the last day of summer
break? When she is on the court, at least,
rosy and sunshine isnt exactly her style.
That is when she is at her best.
As well as being a leader on the team,
everyone looks to you; everyone expects
you to just be almighty and fearful, Joos
said. So, even if its going bad, you just
have to put on a smile or just the oppo-
site and give them hell.

Neymar, Suarez play
rst game since World Cup
BARCELONA, Spain Neymar and Luis
Suarez played for the rst time since their
dramatic World Cup exits, with the Brazilian
star scoring twice Monday and showing no
signs of his devastating back injury in
Barcelonas 6-0 rout of Mexican champion
Leon in a preseason tuneup.
The last time Suarez played he infamously bit
an Italian opponent at the World Cup, drawing a
four-month ban from competitive matches.
The Uruguayan striker, who has since trans-
ferred to Barcelona from Liverpool, was
cheered by his new fans at Camp Nou during
introductions. He entered as a substitute in the
75th minute to more applause.
Neymar hadnt played since fracturing a
vertebra during the World Cup on July 4, rul-
ing him out of the rest of the tournament. He
was deemed t to play hours before the game
against Leon.
Neymar set up Lionel Messis third-minute
score before adding goals in the 12th and 44th
minutes. He was substituted at halftime before
Barcelona youth forwards Munir El Haddadi
scored in the 54th and the 77th and Sandro
Ramirez added another in the 89th.

like the second coming of last seasons
backup, Colt McCoy. If the 49ers have a
lack of condence in Gabbert, you can look
forward to seeing more of last year offense
namely, a conservative attack that is
predicated on keeping Kaepernick healthy.
The second biggest concern is the
defense. With NaVarro Bowman out for a
while with his knee injury and even if he
comes back this year he probably wont be
a full strength until the 2015 season
along with Glenn Dorsey and his torn
biceps, the middle of the 49ers front-seven
looks vulnerable.
My concern has to do mostly with the
backups, which are doing nothing when
given the chance. Even playing against
opponents second and third strings, the
49ers backups are getting crushed. Not a
good showing thus far.
The 49ers will play their third preseason
game against San Diego Sunday and by all
accounts, the third preseason game is
essentially a dress rehearsal for the season
opener. Instead of keeping everything
close to the vest and not showing anything
offensively, the 49ers need to unwrap its
offense and prove to the fans and them-
selves that this is still a Super Bowl-
contending team.
***
I gure Im at least 10 years away if
ever from attending any kind of event at
the 49ers new home, Levis Stadium.
Im a rm believer that the experience is
better from my couch and concessions are
much, much cheaper. Plus, professional
sports franchises are pricing out the middle
class, meaning Id have to save for a few
months if I wanted to take my family to a
game.
So, while it may take years for me to set
foot in the state-of-the-art facility, Im
already done with it. All the slobbering
over it. All the stories. All the behind the
scenes stuff. OK. I get it. The stadium is
fantastic. Great for the 49ers. Yawn.
***
And speaking of Levis Stadium, the
biggest complaints are the lines trafc
lines getting into and out of the stadium,
lines to get food and drinks, lines and waits
to board public transportation.
What do you expect? Every time you have
60,000 to 70,000 people congregating in
spot, there are bound to be some issues
with trafc and whatnot. Dont want to sit
in trafc? Get there about three hours
before game time and wait for a couple
hours after the game before leaving. Just
because its no longer the Candlestick
gauntlet, doesnt mean its going to be
smooth sailing to 49ers games this year.
Much like people discovered trying to
get to the Paul McCartney concert at
Candlestick last week, if you wait until the
last minute before heading to the stadium,
dont be shocked if you get stuck playing
the waiting game.

Rafael Nadal pulled out of the U.S. Open
on Monday because of an injured right
wrist, making him the fourth reigning
mens champion in the last 45 years to sit
out the tournament.
Nadal and the tournament announced his deci-
sion simultaneously, exactly one week before
the years last Grand Slam tournament begins.
The 28-year-old Spaniard was hurt July 29
while practicing on his home island of
Mallorca ahead of the North American hard-
court circuit. The next day, Nadal said he had
been told by doctors to wear a cast on his
wrist for two to three weeks, and would have
to sit out U.S. Open tuneup tournaments in
Toronto and Cincinnati.
Nadal also said at that
time he expected to be able
to return for the U.S. Open
itself. But on Monday, he
issued a statement on his
Facebook page, saying he
is very sorry to
announce he would not
play in New York.
I am sure you under-
stand that it is a very tough moment for me
since it is a tournament I love and where I
have great memories from fans, the night
matches, so many things, Nadals posting
read. Not much more I can do right now,
other than accept the situation and, as always
in my case, work hard in order to be able to
compete at the highest level once I am back.
The second-ranked Nadal plays left-handed,
but he uses a two-handed backhand.
The other U.S. Open mens singles champi-
ons who did not return to the eld the following
year were Ken Rosewall in 1971, Pete Sampras
in 2003, and Juan Martin del Potro in 2010.
Nadal won his second championship at
Flushing Meadows in 2013, part of a run of
reaching the nal in each of his last three
appearances in the U.S. Open. He beat Novak
Djokovic to win the titles in 2010 and last
year, and lost to Djokovic in 2011.
But now Nadal will be skipping the tourna-
ment for the second time in three years. He did
not enter the U.S. Open in 2012, part of an
extended absence because of a problem with
his left knee.
This will be the second time Nadal failed to
try to defend a Grand Slam title: Ayear after
winning Wimbledon in 2008, he chose to not
enter that tournament, citing knee tendinitis.
Nadal is 44-8 with four titles in 2014, includ-
ing his record ninth French Open trophy.
He hasnt competed since losing in the
fourth round of Wimbledon to 19-year-old
Nick Kyrgios in four sets on July 1.
Nadals 14 major titles are tied with Sampras
for the second most in the history of mens ten-
nis, trailing only Roger Federers record of 17.
With Nadal out, ve-time U.S. Open cham-
pion Federer now 33, but coming off a run-
ner-up nish at Wimbledon last month and a
hard-court title in Cincinnati on Sunday
will join the No. 1-ranked Djokovic as a
favorite in Flushing Meadows.

WASHINGTON The Washington Nationals
agreed to a minor league deal with Nate
Schierholtz on Monday and assigned the veter-
an outelder to Triple-ASyracuse.
General manager Mike Rizzo said the
Nationals have been interested in Schierholtz
for years.
With Nate McLouth on the shelf for longer
than we expected, we thought it was a good
pickup, Rizzo said.
McLouth has been out since Aug. 2 with right
shoulder inammation. The lefty-hitting out-
elder was scheduled to undergo an Arthrogram -
an MRI procedure that involves dye being
injected into the joint - on Monday to help
determine the extent of his injury.
Schierholtz, also a left-handed batter, hit .192
with six homers in 99 games with Chicago
before he was designated for assignment Aug. 6.
(Well) see where hes at
when he gets (to Syracuse)
tomorrow, you know physi-
cally, Rizzo said. Were
going to gauge how he feels
and how he looks, and well
give him as many at-bats as
he needs down there before
we bring him up.
Schierholtz is a .254
career hitter with 51 home
runs and 224 RBIs in 776
games. Last season with the Cubs, he hit .251
and established career highs in home runs (21),
RBIs (68) and runs scored (56).
(Hes) had experience as a pinch hitter,
Rizzo said. He can play all three outeld posi-
tions above average. He throws well. He can
still run well. Hes got some pop from the left
side. We were a little short on left-handed power
bats off the bench.

SPORTS 15
seven drives over the first two
exhibition games as Oaklands
first-team offense has struggled
to find any consistency. Schaub
has completed 11 of 20 passes for
108 yards, one interception and
no touchdowns for a passer rating
of 49.6.
How our offense goes is how the
quarterback goes, Schaub said.
Just be more consistent in what
were doing.
Schaub has faced an unusual
amount of blitzing for the presea-
son with defenses bringing extra
rushers on more than half of his
dropbacks so far, according to Pro
Football Focus.
That has forced Schaub to get rid
of the ball quickly, with only three
of his passes and none of his
completions going more than
10 yards downeld.
Neither Schaub nor coach Dennis
Allen is too concerned about the
play of the rst-team offense in the
rst two preseason games. But they
expect a better performance in the
dress rehearsal Friday against
Green Bay.
Do I think we need to be able to
go out and execute and make some
plays? I think thats something
that wed all like to see, Allen
said. Alittle bit more consistency
would probably be the right term
for what Im looking for offensive-
l y. Weve gone out and made some
plays and done some nice things.
We just havent been as consistent
as we need to be and this would be a
good week to get better at that.
NOTES: Fullback Marcel Reese
(right foot) was scheduled to have
an MRI. Tight end Scott
Simonson (concussion) was back
at practice while wide receiver
Brice Butler, defensive tackle
Justin Ellis and offensive lineman
Matt McCants remain sidelined by
concussions. Cornerback DJ
Hayden, who has been out with a
stress fracture in his foot since
May, worked out on the side.

to another superseding indictment in the
same case or to a separate case, if any
charges are eventually led.
Hoffman then responded that prosecutors
currently view the cases as separate but may
seek to join them if that makes sense at a
later date.
She gave no further details.
Henderson set a further status conference
in the case for Sept. 22. No trial date has
been set.
Outside of court, spokespersons for U.S.
Attorney Melinda Haag and for PG&E
declined to comment on the current investi-
gation.
The San Bruno explosion and subsequent
re killed eight people and injured 66 others
on Sept. 9, 2010. The cause was a rupture in
a defective seam weld in a pipeline segment
that was incorrectly listed in PG&E records
as seamless, according to the National
Transportation Safety Board.
In the superseding indictment, announced
by prosecutors on July 29 and led in court
on July 30, PG&E is accused of obstructing
the NTSBs probe and violating Natural Gas
Pipeline Safety Act record-keeping and man-
agement requirements in connection with
the San Bruno pipeline and several other
pipelines.
The maximum possible ne in the crimi-
nal case, if PG&E is convicted, would be
$1.13 billion, or twice the amount of the
victims losses. The indictment cites a gure
of $565 million in losses, which is the
amount of settlements reached in San Mateo
County Superior Court in lawsuits filed
against PG&E by family members of vic-
tims, people who were injured and people
whose property was damaged.
In a separate action, San Bruno ofcials
revealed Monday that they have asked pros-
ecutors to recommend the appointment of an
independent federal monitor to oversee
PG&Es progress in improving safety as
part of the penalty if the utility is convicted.
In a letter to Haag on Aug. 11, San Bruno
City Manager Connie Jackson wrote that a
monitor would provide the depth and
breadth of resources needed to validate
PG&Es regulatory responsibilities.
If PG&E is convicted, the penalty would
be determined by the judge.
PG&E issued a statement Monday saying,
Based on all of the evidence we have seen to
date and our review of the new indictment,
we still do not believe that PG&E employees
intentionally violated the federal Pipeline
Safety Act and that, even where mistakes
were made, employees were acting in good
faith to provide customers with safe and reli-
able energy.
San Bruno also asked Gov. Jerry Brown
last month to appoint an independent state
monitor.
San Bruno spokesman Sam Singer said the
city has not heard back from Brown and said,
Were disappointed and will continue to
press the governor.
The citys letter to Brown came after San
Bruno ofcials obtained copies of emails
that they allege show that California Public
Utilities Commission president Michael
Peevey and his staff improperly exchanged
private emails with PG&E executives on
matters being investigated by the CPUC.
In an administrative proceeding that is
separate from the federal criminal case, the
commission is considering how much to ne
PG&E for record-keeping and safety-compli-
ance failures. San Bruno has urged it to levy
a penalty and ne of $2.45 billion.
The criminal obstruction-of-justice charge
in the indictment alleges that during the
NTSB investigation in February 2011 ,
PG&E submitted a document outlining when
it considered a manufacturing problem to be
high-risk, but later withdrew the document
in a letter on April 6, 2011, saying it had
never been approved.
The indictment alleges that PG&E did not
disclose in the letter that it in fact followed
the practices set forth in the document
between 2009 and April 2011, and also
failed to disclose that it knew the policy
violated a requirement of the pipeline safety
law.
In its statement Monday, PG&E said it
responded to hundreds of questions from the
NTSB during the probe and that in one
response, PG&E had submitted a cover
sheet approval form mismatched to the
wrong internal engineering document.
PG&E corrected this error with a letter
dated April 6, 2011. The NTSB published the
letter on its accident investigation docket
on September 30, 2011, and it has been pub-
licly available since then. PG&E believes
the letter is true and accurate and stands by
it, the utility said in its statement.

Serrano-Garcias home.
Munks called the deadly meeting between
Trieu and Serrano-Garcia a tragic occur-
rence and extended his ofces sympathies
to the womans family. Trieu has returned to
full duty but is still dealing with the gravi-
ty of the incident, Munks said.
Trieu encountered Serrano-Garcia June 3 at
1 Maidenhair Walk Lane after her brother
called 911 around 9:21 p.m. to report his
mentally ill sister hadnt taken her medica-
tion that day and was acting out and
yelling, according to the four-page letter
from Wagstaffe to Munks.
As her brother Lorenzo Serrano stayed on
the line, he told the dispatcher his sister had
left the home with their father and their
mother said she had taken her medication.
Minutes later dispatch told deputies she had
calmed down somewhat and was inside the
home again. But at 9:30 p.m., Lorenzo
Serrano told dispatchers his sister had a
10.5-inch kitchen knife.
Trieu was rst on scene and, after some
trouble finding the residence inside the
Moonride Community Housing
Development, located the home and tried
unsuccessfully to speak with Serranos
Spanish-speaking mother.
Trieu, standing 14 feet from the door,
reported that Serrano-Garcia suddenly came
running from the house with a large knife
raised above her head and pointed at him
screaming in what can be described as a
primal, incoherent and garbled tone, the
letter states.
Trieu retreated backwards between two
cars into the street but she continued
advancing and closing the gap between
then. Trieu ran past his patrol car, saw that
his partner was still not on scene, and aimed
his rearm at her with an order to stop. She
continued to run screaming at him and he
red once, hitting the upper center of her
chest, when she was 8 to 10 feet away.
Witnesses later told investigators that
Serrano-Garcia yelled in Spanish You
are not going to take me! You are not
going to take me!
Trieu told investigators he didnt have
time to upholster and use his stun gun and
that her big sweater might have hampered
its prongs anyway. He felt he had no other
option than ring his weapon, Wagstaffe
wrote.
Although Trieu knew from dispatch that
Serrano-Garcia had mental illness, his life
was in no less danger, Wagstaffe wrote.
The swiftness of her potentially lethal
attack on the deputy precluded any possibil-
ity of handling the threat in a less lethal
manner, he wrote.
Serranos shooting led to calls by family
and members of the community for an inde-
pendent review and Wagstaffe held two sep-
arate meetings on the coastside with them.
On Monday, the Sheriffs Ofce said it
also plans to hold a community meeting on
the coast in coming week s to discuss the
investigations outcome and introduce a
new pilot program coordinating the ofce
with the San Mateo County Behavioral
Health Department. The idea is for an on-
call team of specially trained personnel to
help those approaching mental crisis with
options and resources.

HEALTH 17
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
WASHINGTON Ending insurance dis-
crimination against the sick was a central
goal of the nations health care overhaul,
but leading patient groups say that promise
is being undermined by new barriers from
insurers.
The insurance industry responds that crit-
ics are confusing legitimate cost-control
with bias. Some state regulators, however,
say theres reason to be concerned about
policies that shift costs to patients and nar-
row their choices of hospitals and doctors.
With open enrollment for 2015 three
months away, the Obama administration is
being pressed to enforce the Affordable Care
Acts anti-discrimination provisions. Some
regulations have been issued; others are
pending after more than four years.
More than 300 patient advocacy groups
recently wrote Health and Human Services
Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell to com-
plain about some insurer tactics that are
highly discriminatory against patients with
chronic health conditions and may ... vio-
late the (laws) nondiscrimination provi-
sions.
Among the groups were the AIDS
Institute, the American Lung Association,
Easter Seals, the Epilepsy Foundation, the
Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the
National Alliance on Mental Illness, the
National Kidney Foundation and United
Cerebral Palsy. All supported the law.
Coverage of expensive drugs tops their
concerns.
The advocates also say they are disap-
pointed by how difcult its proved for con-
sumers to get a full picture of plans sold on
the new insurance exchanges. Digging is
often required to learn crucial details such as
drugs covered, exact copayments and which
doctors and hospitals are in the network.
Washington states insurance commis-
sioner, Mike Kreidler, said there is no
question that discrimination is creeping
back. The question is whether we are catch-
ing it or not, added Kreidler, a Democrat.
Kansas commissioner, Sandy Praeger, a
Republican, said the jury is out on whether
some insurers are back to shunning the
sick. Nonetheless, Praeger said the admin-
istration needs to take a strong stand.
They ought to make it very clear that if
there is any kind of discrimination against
people with chronic conditions, there will
be enforcement action, Praeger said. The
whole goal here was to use the private insur-
ance market to create a system that provides
health insurance for all Americans.
The Obama administration turned down
interview requests.
An HHS spokeswoman said the depart-
ment is preparing a formal response to the
advocates and stressed that todays level of
consumer protection is far superior to what
existed before President Barack Obamas
law, when an insurance company could use
any existing medical condition to deny
coverage.
The law also takes away some of the moti-
vation insurers have for chasing healthy

They ought to make it very clear that if there is any kind of
discrimination against people with chronic conditions,there will be
enforcement action....The whole goal here was to use the private insurance
market to create a system that provides health insurance for all Americans.

patients. Those attracting a healthy popula-
tion must pay into a pool that will reim-
burse plans with a higher share of patients
with health problems. But that backstop is
under attack from congressional
Republicans as an insurer bailout.
Compounding the uncertainty is that
Washington and the states now share
responsibility for policing health plans
sold to individuals.
Although the federal government is run-
ning insurance markets in 36 states, state
regulators are still in charge of consumer
protection. A few states refuse to enforce
any aspect of the law.
Kreidler said the federal government
should establish a basic level of protection
that states can build on. Were kind of
piecemealing it right now, he said.
Much of the concern is about coverage for
prescription drugs. Also worrisome are the
narrow networks of hospitals and doctors
that insurers are using to keep premiums
down. Healthy people generally shop for
lower premiums, while people with health
problems look for access to specialists and
the best hospitals.
Before Obamas overhaul, insurance plans
sold on the individual market could exclude
prescription coverage. Now the debate is
over whats fair to charge patients.
Some plans are requiring patients to pay
30 percent or more for drugs that go for sev-
eral thousand dollars a month. HIV drugs,
certain cancer medications, and multiple
sclerosis drugs are among them.
Although the law sets an overall annual
limit on what patients are required to pay,
the initial medication cost can be a shock.

LONDON Doctors and nurses ghting
Ebola in West Africa are working 14-hour
days, seven days a week, wearing head-to-toe
gear in the heat of muddy clinics. Agonizing
death is the norm. The hellish conditions
arent the only problem: Health workers
struggle to convince patients theyre trying
to help them, not hurt them.
Rumors are rife that Western aid workers
are importing Ebola, stealing bodies or even
deliberately infecting patients. Winning
trust is made harder by a full suit of hood,
goggles, mask and gown that hides their
faces.
You want to say so much ... because
theyre in so much pain, said nurse Monia
Sayah, of Doctors Without Borders. They
suffer so much, but they can only see your
eyes.
The outbreak has hit three of the worlds
poorest countries, where health systems
there were already woefully understaffed and
ill-equipped. In Liberia, there is only one
doctor for every 100,000 people, while in
Sierra Leone there are two, according to the
World Health Organization; there were no
statistics available for Guinea. The gure is
245 for the United States. Emotional distress
conspires with exhaustion and dehydration,
but doctors say its hard to stop working.
When the need is so great, you cant justify
not being there for a day or going home ear-
lier, said Dr. Robert Fowler, who recently
worked in Guinea and Sierra Leone.
The critical care doctor at Sunnybrook
Hospital in Toronto, Canada now on sab-
batical with the World Health Organization
said that the barrier of the protective suit
is big but not insurmountable.
There was a young girl, about 6, who
came in late in the illness who was bleeding
from her bowels, very dehydrated and deliri-
ous, he said. Ebola wiped out her immediate
family so she was all alone.
She was very frightened and very reluc-
tant to engage, and just wanted to push peo-
ple away, he said. Fowler spent days trying
to help her, bringing her things she wanted
like Fanta soda. She eventually developed
this sense that this person in the suit whos
a bit scary is trying to help me.

U.N. urges exit screening
for Ebola at some airports
By John Heilprin
GENEVA Ebola-affected countries should immediately
begin exit screening all passengers leaving international air-
ports, sea ports and major ground crossings, the U.N. health
agency said on Monday.
The agency didnt spell out which countries should start
screening passengers, but noted that the Ebola outbreak
involves transmission in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leona
and a small number of people in Nigeria.
All countries, even those unaffected by the outbreak in
West Africa, need to strengthen their ability to detect and
immediately contain new cases without doing anything that
unnecessarily interferes with international travel or trade, the
agency said. But countries dont need to impose travel restric-
tions and active screening of passengers if they do not share
borders with Ebola-affected countries, it said.
Authorities in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea say they are
already closely inspecting departing passengers for signs of
fever or illness.
The risk of the Ebola virus being transmitted during air
travel is low because unlike infections such as inuenza or
tuberculosis, it is not spread by breathing air and airborne
particles from an infected person.
Nonetheless, the World Health Organization said anyone
with an illness consistent with the virus should not be
allowed to travel normally and all passengers should routine-
ly wash their hands and avoid direct contact with body uids
of infected people.
Transmission requires direct contact with blood, secre-
tions, organs or other body uids of infected living or dead
persons or animals, all unlikely exposures for the average
traveler, the agency said in a statement.
The only way to contain the disease, for which there is no
licensed treatment, is by isolating the sick and closely
watching for signs of infection in those they have come into
contact with. Aperson usually has no symptoms for two to
21 days, but after the incubation period the symptoms include
fever, weakness, muscle pain, headache and sore throat,
according to WHO. Then comes vomiting, diarrhea, rash, and
in some cases, bleeding. The Geneva-based agency has been
criticized by non-U.N. health organizations as being slow to
call for an emergency response to the Ebola crisis.
Some countries have banned direct ights to states hit by
the disease. British Airways, Kenya Airways and a number of
regional carriers have also canceled ights to the capitals of
Sierra Leone and Liberia despite the WHOs recommendation
that no travel or trade bans be put in place.
Last month, a Liberian-American man infected with Ebola
boarded a ight from Liberia to Nigeria and died days later; 11
people who came into contact with him have been infected.
Atask force to monitor the impact of the Ebola virus on
travel and transport has been launched by the U.N. health
agency along with the International Civil Aviation
Organization, the World Tourism Organization, the Airports
Council International, the International Air Transport
Association and the World Travel and Tourism Council.
By Mike Stobbe
and Marilynn Marchione
A scary problem lurks beyond the
frenzied efforts to keep people from
spreading Ebola: No one knows exact-
ly where the virus comes from or how
to stop it from seeding new outbreaks.
Ebola has caused two dozen out-
breaks in Africa since it rst emerged in
1976. It is coming from somewhere
probably bats but experts agree they
need to pinpoint its origins in nature.
That has had to wait until they can
tame the current outbreak, which has
claimed more than 1,100 lives in four
countries the worst toll from Ebola
in history.
First and foremost get the outbreak
under control. Once that piece is
resolved, then go back and nd what
the source is, said Jonathan Towner, a
scientist who helped nd the bat source
of another Ebola-like disease called
Marburg. Towner works for the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
Others say nding Ebolas origins is
more than a down-the-road scientic
curiosity.
Conrming the source would de-
nitely be important, said Dr. Richard
Wenzel, a Virginia Commonwealth
University scientist who formerly led
the International Society for Infectious
Diseases.
Throughout history, some of the
biggest wins against infectious dis-
eases have involved not just limiting
person-to-person spread but also nd-
ing and controlling the sources in
nature fueling new cases.
Plague was halted after the germ was
tied to rat-riding eas. With the respira-
tory disease SARS, civet cats played a
role. With typhus it was lice, and with
bird u, live poultry markets. Efforts to
control MERS, a virus causing sporadic
outbreaks in the Middle East, include
exploring the role of camels.
In the case of Ebola, health experts
think the initial cases in each outbreak
get it from eating or handling infected
animals. They think the virus may
come from certain bats, and in parts of
Africa, bats are considered a delicacy.
But bats may not be the whole story
or the creature that spread it to humans.
The World Health Organization lists
chimpanzees, gorillas, monkeys, for-
est antelope and porcupines as possi-
bly playing a role. Even pig farms may
amplify infection because of fruit bats
on the farms, the WHO says.
Its not clear what the animal is. Its
going to take a lot of testing, said Dr.
Robert Gaynes, an Emory University
infectious disease specialist who
worked for the CDC for more than 20
years.
Part of the puzzle is how long the
virus has been in West Africa. Previous
outbreaks have been in the east and
central regions of the continent.

TechShop began in Menlo Park in
2006 but relocated its original facility
to San Carlos last year. There are eight
locations across the country, three in
the Bay Area, and international plans
for new sites, said Rafe Colet, senior
general manager of San Carlos and San
Jose TechShops.
Our greater mission is to empower
and enable people to build their
dreams, Colet said. Very quickly,
efciently and cost effectively you can
make whatever you want. Plus, you
dont have to buy a $2,000 machine to
do it.
TechShop helps break down some of
the momentous nancial barriers that
can prevent people from experiment-
ing or creating prototypes that may
otherwise require large capital invest-
ments, Colet said.
From the small business perspec-
tive, we have hundreds of thousands
that become entrepreneurs on their
own, Colet said. Machines, soft-
ware, real estate these are the barri-
ers people face before TechShop.
Not having to purchase or maintain a
$50,000 piece of equipment benets a
range of individuals from starting
entrepreneurs to large corporations
and individuals to educational institu-
tions, Colet said.
TechShop boasts numerous success
stories such as when the makers of
Square credit card readers had an idea
that changed the way individuals
accept business, Colet said. After
going to venture capitalists to seek
funds without a product in hand, they
turned to TechShop, Colet said. Within
a few months and just $500, the devel-
opers used the studios injection mold-
er to create a handful of prototypes,
which they were able to show
investors and ultimately create an
innovative product, Colet said.
With such a low cost to entry to try
ideas, more people can try their ideas.
Ideas that can change the world, Colet
said.
Other achievements inspired
through TechShop include its rst cor-
porate member, the Ford Motor
Company. By providing their employ-
ees with access to TechShop equip-
ment, their users increased patent rates
by 40 percent, Colet said.
Now, local corporations such as
Facebook, Apple, Google, Samsung
and Tesla provide employees with
memberships to use TechShop facili-
ties. Instead of being cooped up alone
or with a select few in an office,
TechShop users grow through a collab-
orative and inspirational environ-
ment, Colet said.
TechShop requires users to take safe-
ty courses and companies like Tesla
will send new employees to train
before using company equipment,
Colet said.
Individuals also utilize its facilities
to learn basic techniques that can set
help them up for employment. Annette
Fleishman, a recent Stanford graduate
with a degree in structural engineering,
said resources like TechShop are rare.
She has been learning to weld since
she joined in March.
I gured Id take time off to learn all
of these skills, Fleishman said. I
was looking for an equipment type
shop in Baltimore (her home town)
and there really isnt one.
Fleishman said she studied engineer-
ing in college but didnt have the
opportunity to delve into acquiring
skills she can ultimately translate to a
career.
But you dont need to have a back-
ground in manufacturing to benet and
create at TechShop. With a range of
classes, experienced staff and profes-
sional innovators, one of the most
influential aspects of TechShop is
propagating a supportive community
that encourages and inspires one
another, Colet said.
That little bit of inspiration, that
little bit of collaboration could be all
the difference in the world, Colet
said. If we could get every person to
try one of those ideas, we could change
the world.
With funding opportunities like
Kickstarter, the possibilities of turn-
ing an idea into a life-changing prod-
uct and business are endless, Colet
said.
The limit of what these machines
can do is your imagination, Colet
said.
TechShop members create a range of
things and its even common to have
people working on cars, motorcycles
and Burning Man contraptions, Colet
said.
TechShops goal is to create spaces
in nearly every city to enable locally
crafted products that benet communi-
ties and the environment by reducing
how far products need to be distributed,
Colet said.
Making more things locally, buy-
ing something locally, not shipping
that money, that resource is going
to go back to the community, Colet
said.
TechShop also draws on the creative
wonder of childhood and offers summer
camps and classes for children, Colet
said. This summer alone, TechShop
has worked with 600 children between
San Carlos and San Jose, Colet said.
Its newer location in San Carlos cur-
rently has about 700 monthly mem-
bers, but other larger TechShops like
San Jose and San Francisco can have
between 850 to 1,000, Colet said.
For a $125 monthly membership
fee, people can sign up to use its vast
collection from manual machinery to
computer numeric control machines.
You dont have to be a member to take
classes and prices vary.
TechShop is doing what people
want and need. This is something that
people have wanted throughout time,
people want to learn and be creative,
Colet said. Its awesome. What is
more valuable than learning some-
thing? Learning something is some-
thing that can never be taken away.

TECHSHOP
and Hayward are among those affected
according to 2010 Department of
Water Resources records the latest
statewide records available. The leaks,
breaks and overows have cost the
East Bay Municipal Utility District
9.2 percent or 6.028 billion gal-
lons of its total water production in
2012, the district recently reported.
However, it is difficult to know
exactly how much water is being lost
due to no mandatory or standard
auditing practices for the states 362
urban water suppliers.
If we are to better manage our water
resources, we need to know how much
water is lost over its distribution sys-
tem, state Sen. Lois Wolk said. Then
we need to take cost-effective steps to
reduce these losses.
Wolk, a Democrat who represents
Davis, is seeking tougher requirements
to report water losses to the state
through legislation, Senate Bill 1420.
Unlike visible road and bridge dam-
age, underground water pipe breaks and
leaks are often hidden from view as
seeping water may go unnoticed for
long stretches.
And some reported water losses
arent all attributed to leaks, expert
say. Some are due to faulty meters, data
errors, theft and reghting. Groups,
including the American Water Works
Association, estimate that replacing
and expanding water systems will cost
at least $1 trillion over the next 25
years.
For example, the San Francisco
Public Utilities Commission will
spend $4.6 billion to replace leaky
pipes that carry water from the Hetch
Hetchy water system that services
more than 2 million Bay Area homes
and business.
The new pipes in the project, sup-
posedly designed to withstand a 7.1-
magnitude earthquake, is scheduled to
be completed by 2016.

PEARLS BEFORE SWINE
GET FUZZY
TUESDAY, AUGUST 19, 2014
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) This is a particularly good
time for collaborations or partnerships. You will get
a helping hand from an unexpected source, and will
move much closer to achieving a long-term goal.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Keep your personal life
out of your workplace. If your domestic affairs are
dominating your thoughts, your productivity will suffer
and career woes are likely to develop.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Make a move toward
greater independence. A business of your own, no
matter how small in the beginning, will give you an
outlet for your creative talent that will prove very
lucrative.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Dont let your head
rule your heart. Remember to share your feelings with
those you care about. The response you get will put
you at ease and encourage a closer bond.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Your fight for
what is right will continue. If you see someone
treated unfairly, take a stand. You will gain respect,
support and an invitation to work collectively toward
a worthy cause.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A business
acquaintance will need a helping hand. The
assistance you offer will be appreciated and
rewarded, but make sure you take time out to nurture
your own needs, as well.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Getting out of the
house to attend an inspirational or stimulating event
will allow you to meet new people and form lasting
friendships. A joint venture looks promising.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) You may feel laden
with responsibilities. Strive for balance between your
work and personal duties. Find a calm place where you
can relax and let your imagination entertain you.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You have a remarkable
capacity for knowledge. Keep well-informed by
participating in intellectually oriented groups. By
expanding your expertise, you can make great strides
toward your future goals.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Dont be nonchalant
about your achievements. Speak up and make sure
that your accomplishments are noticed. Self-promotion
is necessary to let others know what you have to offer.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Its best to deal
with personal matters on your own. Dont let
misunderstandings fester. Be the rst to offer a
compromise. Professionalism will speak volumes
about your ability to lead.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You can get a lot
accomplished if you tackle your tasks head-on. Find
a quiet place conducive to nishing what you start.
Collaborative efforts will not be in your best interest.
