With confusion over nancing,
the new Design Tech High School
wont be getting a one-time
$150,000 grant from the San
Mateo Union High School
District for now.
At a heated meeting Thursday
night, the district decided to hold
off on giving the money until the
schools nancials are more set-
tled since, as a new venture, its
still unclear exactly how much
revenue and expenditures there
will be given the uid number of
in-district and out-of-district stu-
dents, ofcials said. The 139-stu-
dent innovation and design learn-
ing focused Design Tech, or
d.tech, opened for classes on the
Mills High School campus in
Millbrae Aug. 11.
If the district provides money
tonight, d.tech will still be nan-
cially insolvent in 2015-16, said
Liz McManus, deputy superintend-
ent of business services. It would
not be prudent until we get
stronger, accurate numbers to not
provide any type of compensation
until a reasonable budget is sub-
mitted to the district.
Its not yet nalized how many
districts will reimburse San Mateo
Union for their out-of-district stu-
dents. The cost to the district for
students coming from basic aid
districts that get their funding
from property taxes is $7,810 per
student and $3,990 for students
from revenue limit districts that
get some of their funding from the
state. Each district has to negoti-
ate with San Mateo Union though,
so these numbers are not concrete,
said McManus.
There are 85 students at d.tech
from within the district, while 54
are from outside the district,
according to d.tech. The district
would lose $419,866 for costs
associated with the new school if
outside districts didnt reimburse
for their students attending San
Mateo Union school, according to
d.tech. The Sequoia Union High

An anniversary fundraiser this
weekend will offer up some of the
freshest locally sourced foods
while supporting a nonprot that
serves a large population of some
of the most isolated communities
in San Mateo County.
Puente de la Costa Sur is cele-
brating 16 years of assisting resi-
dents, farmers and children in
Pescadero, La Honda, San
Gregorio and Loma Mar by host-
ing its rst annual Fall Harvest
Fundraiser at Harley Farms Goat
Dairy.
Asmall organization has grown
to address multifaceted needs of a
very rural region and has evolved a
wide variety of programs for a full
spectrum of ages, said Puente
Executive Director Kerry Lobel.
Interests that include a farmers
market, a youth development pro-
gram, that include a wide variety of
classes. So I think weve taken our
mandate over the years very seri-
ously and at the same time grown
and changed to meet the communi-
tys needs.
Puente covers a vast array of
services that would typically be
provided by multiple nonprot s.
As the only organization of its
kind in these rural coastal commu-
nities, Puente has expanded from a
ministry for farm and nursery
workers into offering youth lead-
ership programs, English and
Spanish classes, health screen-
ings, food distribution, providing
school supplies and much more.

A 23-year-old Redwood City
man convicted as a teenager of
killing a 19-year-old man at a
party six years ago was resen-
tenced Friday to 50 years to life in
prison.
Ricardo Garcia, who was 17
when he killed Solomone Zarate,
was serving life without parole
after his 2010 conviction as an
adult of rst-degree murder with a
special gang allegation that made
him parole ineligible. He was
granted a new sentencing based on
the U.S. Supreme Court decision
Miller v.
Alabama that
such mandatory
sentences for
juveniles are
unlawful. The
ruling allows a
judge to rein-
state the same
life sentence as
long as he or
she articulates the specic reasons
why parole is taken off the table.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A32-year-old former child care worker in
San Mateo reportedly found with hundreds
of child pornography images on his home
computer was sentenced Friday to a year in
jail and one year of sex offender manage-
ment classes.
Nicholas Brian McKinley, who formerly
worked for child development organization
La Creche in San Mateo, has credit of 384
days against his term so he is free from cus-
tody. McKinley must also spend three years
on supervised probation and register as a
sex offender for life.
McKinley pleaded no contest in late May
to a single felony count of possessing child
pornography to avoid prison. Prosecutors
also dropped two other possession charges.
McKinley was arrested after Santa Barbara
County investigators
allegedly turned up his use
of the le sharing service
Shareaza. An IP address
in San Mateo that down-
loaded more than 100
known pornographic
videos of children
between Jan. 1, 2013, and
Nov. 20, 2013, reported-
ly traced back to
McKinleys San Mateo
apartment and prosecutors say a police
search found hundreds of images on his per-
sonal computer.
After his arrest, La Creche said McKinley
was no longer afliated with the center that
provides programs and care for infants, tod-
dlers and children ages 2 to 6.

A driver whose out-of-control car
sent a concrete garbage can ying into
a 67-year-old San Mateo pedestrian
who later died after the man ed the
scene with his young son was sen-
tenced Friday to a year in jail for
felony hit-and-run.
Josue Vicente Lopez, 28, has credit
of 1,121 days served while in custody
on $20,000 bail so his sentence is
essentially complete. He now spends
four years on supervised probation.
Lopez was originally charged with
gross vehicular manslaughter and child
endangerment but a jury deadlocked in
favor of acquittal and prosecutors
opted not to retry
him because of how
the split leaned. On
the lone felony,
prosecutors sought
four years prison for
Lopez, after a
lengthy hearing,
Judge Lisa Novak
opted for the lesser
term.
The Nov. 24, 2012, collision hap-
pened on the 1700 block of South
Delaware Street after the driver of a
green 1994 Chevrolet Camaro later
identied as Lopez reportedly lost con-
trol of the vehicle while speeding out
of the Kmart parking lot. The car
reportedly jumped the curb, went onto
the sidewalk and into a cement garbage
container that dislodged and hit
Aguiniga. Authorities say Lopez
checked on Aguiniga after the crash but
ed the scene in his car with his 5-
year-old child. Responding police of-
cers found Aguiniga pinned between
the can and tree near a bus stop.
Aguiniga later died at the hospital. San
Mateo police tracked down Lopez to
his home using witness descriptions
of the suspect car and a partial license
plate number.
Defense attorney John Elworth did
not return a call for comment on the
sentence but previously told the Daily
Journal his client left the scene to
assure his sons safety at home before
police arrived.
Driver sentenced for fatally hitting pedestrian
By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO A ballot initia-
tive that would have asked voters to
split California into six separate
states failed to qualify for the ballot
in 2016, the secretary of states
office reported Friday.
Silicon Valley venture capitalist
Tim Draper submitted 1.37 million
signatures in July in support of the
measure, saying the state of 38.3
million people has become
ungovernable because it has too
many diverse interests for politicians
to effectively represent their con-
stituents.
Arandom sampling of ballot initia-
tive signatures
from all 58 coun-
ties found that just
66 percent were
projected to be
valid, and that it
would fall more
than 500,000 sig-
natures short of the
number needed to
make the ballot.
Draper sought to split California
into six states called Jefferson, North
California, Silicon Valley, Central
California, West California and South
California. The regions would vary
greatly in size, demographics and
incomes.
Draper, who has put more than $5
million into the effort so far, said in
a statement Friday that he believed
enough signatures were valid and that
a full review would prove that.
Six Californias will conduct a
review of the signatures determined
to be invalid, he said. The internal
verification process conducted by our
signature-gathering firm predicted a
much higher validity rate than the
random sample result.
Critics say Drapers plan would
separate the wealthiest and poorest
Californians, potentially creating
some of the poorest states in the
nation. Former California Assembly
Speaker Fabian Nunez, a Democrat,
was heading a campaign opposing
the measure.

Teen found dead in Belmont apartment
A17-year-old male visiting from Los Altos was found unre-
sponsive in an apartment on the 2200 block of Lake Road in
Belmont Friday morning and police say there were indica-
tions of drug use in the home but foul play is not suspected.
At approximately 8:20 a.m., Belmont police and re units
responded to a report of a medical emergency and discovered
the unresponsive teen. Paramedics tried but were unable to
revive him and he was pronounced dead at the scene, accord-
ing to police.
Because of the indications of drug use, police began an
investigation into the circumstances of the incident and are
being assisted by the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce and
Coroners Ofce, according to police.
The cause of death will be determined by the coroner,
according to police.
Hospitals donate millions for community health
San Mateo County nonprots are among those sharing in
$9 million donated by Palo Alto Medical Foundation and
Mills-Peninsula Health Services to improve community
health.
Sutter Health announced the awards Friday to 11 communi-
ty clinics in San Mateo, Alameda, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz
counties. The clinics provide free or reduced rate health care
to the low income and uninsured. Locally, the funds will ben-
et Samaritan House and San Mateo County Daly City Clinic.
Samaritan House will get a new nurse practitioner and
increase access to specialty. The clinic will get new staff for
an urgent care program.
The Ravenswood Family Health Center, which serves both
San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, will help its campaign
for capital improvements and a pediatric and adult dental pro-
gram.
We are committed to improving health care throughout the
Bay Area. By partnering with these clinics, we will help
increase much-needed access to medical care, Jeff Gerard,
Sutter Healths regional president, said in a prepared state-
ment
BART to try late-night bus service for passengers
OAKLAND BART riders will get bus service when the
trains stop running at midnight on weekends.
The San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit agency will
begin offering the service as a yearlong experiment as early
as December.
The rail agency is working out a deal to have the Alameda-
Contra Costa Transit extend its existing late night bus routes
in parts of San Francisco, Oakland, Richmond and Fremont.

SACRAMENTO Democratic
incumbent Gov. Jerry Brown has a
strong lead over his Republican chal-
lenger, Neel Kashkari, in a new
statewide poll released Friday, but 1
in 4 likely voters could not even iden-
tify Kashkari, demonstrating the
challenge he faces in selling himself
to voters this November.
The USC Dornsife/Los Angeles
Times Poll found that Brown leads
Kashkari 57 percent to 36 percent
among likely voters.
Brown, 76, is well known to many
Californians after
spending a lifetime
in politics. He has
amassed nearly $23
million for his re-
election bid from a
wide array of
donors, but spent
very little so far.
Kashkari, 41, is a
first-time candidate
and former U.S. Treasury official who
helped lead the federal bank bailout.
After spending $4.4 million in the
primary to defeat third-place finisher
Tim Donnelly, Kashkari reported
$200,000 in his account at the end of
June and has collected more than
$745,000 since then.
That is far from the millions needed
to mount a statewide television ad
campaign in costly California, so
Kashkari has used other tactics to
generate attention.
This summer, he posed as a home-
less man in Fresno to highlight what
he says is the uneven economic
recovery, and earlier this week he
delivered 6,500 paper bags to
Browns office to protest legislation
that would ban single-use plastic bags
statewide, saying that the governor
and Legislature are focusing on the
wrong priorities.
Poll: Few know state GOP governor candidate

SACRAMENTO Support for
Californias death penalty has fallen
to its lowest level in more than 50
years after a judge ruled it unconstitu-
tional, according to a Field Poll
released Friday.
The poll found 56 percent of regis-
tered voters support keeping the
death penalty, a decline of 12 per-
centage points in just the last three
years, when Field found 68 percent
support for the death penalty. The
new survey found 34 percent of
respondents support abolishing it
and 10 percent have no opinion.
It is the lowest level of support
since 1971, when 58 percent of
Californians supported the death
penalty and 34 percent opposed it.
U.S. District Judge Cormac Carney
in Los Angeles ruled in July that
Californias death penalty is uncon-
stitutional because it takes too long
to carry out, and that unpredictable
delays are arbitrary and unfair. The
judge noted that since the current
death penalty system was adopted
more than 35 years ago, more than
900 people have been sentenced to
death but only 13 have been execut-
ed.
State Attorney General Kamala
Harris, a Democrat, is appealing the
ruling, arguing that the lengthy waits
ensure those who are condemned
receive due process.

Sentencing brings call for state senator to resign
LOS ANGELES California state Sen. Rod Wright was
sentenced Friday to three months in prison for lying about
where he lived when he ran for ofce and
leaders of the Senate said he should
resign immediately.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell
Steinberg, a Democrat from Sacramento,
said in a statement that Wrights con-
stituents in Inglewood cannot continue
without representation.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Huff, R-
Diamond Bar, said Wright should resign
or face expulsion.
Wright was previously suspended with pay from his post
in the Senate. His Capitol staff did not immediately return
calls seeking a response to the demands to resign. His
lawyer Winston Kevin McKesson said it was not a legal
issue and he had not talked about it with Wright.
Obama declares Napa earthquake major disaster
WASHINGTON President Barack Obama has declared a
major disaster in California because of last months Napa
Valley earthquake, releasing emergency federal funding for
the state.
The White House announced the move in a statement
Thursday nine days after Gov. Jerry Brown sent a letter to
Obama requesting the declaration. Brown declared a state of
emergency for California shortly after the magnitude-6.0
earthquake on Aug. 24.
The White House didnt say how much money may be
available, but a preliminary assessment by the governors
ofce found $87 million in earthquake costs that could be
eligible for federal reimbursement.

Obituary
By Julie Watson
SAN DIEGO Black elementary school-
children in California were chronically tru-
ant and faced suspension from school at
disproportionately high rates compared to
other students last year, according to a
study Friday that follows similar research
from the U.S. Education Department.
Taken together the ndings show that
racial disparities in American education
from access to high-level classes and expe-
rienced teachers to discipline begin at
the earliest grades.
Black elementary students in California
were chronically truant at nearly four times
the rate of all students during the last
school year, the attorney generals ofce
report showed. The rate was higher than
that of any other subgroup, including
homeless children.
The report follows findings this year
from the DOEs civil rights arm that indi-
cated black students are more likely to be
suspended from U.S. public schools
even as preschoolers.
Similar to the national ndings, black
students in California missed more than
twice as many days of school per student
due to suspensions than white students and
were suspended up to three times more than
white students in rst and second grades,
according to the attorney generals report.
None of the data explains disparities or
why the students were suspended.
UCLA civil rights researcher Daniel
Losen said he hopes the findings will
prompt California Gov. Jerry Brown to
sign a bill passed by the Legislature that
put an end to suspensions for willful de-
ance.
The largest racial disparities are in this
category, Losen said. Its a catch-all for
all minor offenses.
Nationally, the Obama administration
has called for schools to abandon overly
zealous discipline policies, a move that
supporters say bolstered the efforts of dis-
tricts that were already moving forward
with such changes.
For the sweeping attendance gap, the
California report states that African-
American children experience many of the
most common barriers to attendance
including health issues, poverty, trans-
portation problems, homelessness, and
trauma in greater concentration than
most other populations.

in the city. At its last meeting, the council directed staff
to draft an ordinance that would ban smoking in all

their own condominiums or townhouses to only smoke
indoors with the windows closed. At that meeting, the
council could not come to a decision on further regulat-
ing smoking in restaurants. The current law, which per-
mits smoking in up to 50 percent of outdoor seating
areas, will stand for now.
As of Sept. 3, smoking is prohibited on city-owned

Police in Palo Alto are searching
for a man who allegedly impersonat-
ed a police officer and displayed a
weapon after stopping a teen boy
who was riding a bicycle last week, a
spokesman said Friday.
At 9:06 p.m. Friday, Sept. 5, a citi-
zen called Palo Alto police about a
suspicious incident that occurred at
around 4 p.m. that day on Greer Road
at Ivy Lane, police Sgt. Brian Philip
said.
Apair of male high school students
had been riding their bicycles in the
bike lane on Channing Avenue near
Rhodes Drive when they heard a voice
on a public address system from a car
order them to ride single file instead
of side-by-side, Philip said.
The boys thought it was a police
car, complied with the order and then
parted ways at Greer
Road, officers
reported.
The driver of the
vehicle followed
one of the teens,
used the public
address system to
order the boy to
halt and turned on
police-style flash-
ing lights inside the car, police said.
After the teen stopped riding his
bike, the car pulled up beside him and
the suspect, while still seated,
showed him a badge and angrily lec-
tured him about his riding habits,
according to officers.
The driver then displayed a weapon,
described as either a stun gun or hand-
gun, pointed it up to the roof of the
vehicle so that the boy could see it
and then drove from the scene, Philip
said.
The teen rode his bicycle home and
reported the incident to his parents,
police said.
The student described the man as
white, in his 60s, about 5 feet 10
inches tall with a heavy build, wear-
ing a light-blue collared shirt similar
to a uniform shirt, according to offi-
cers.
The badge shown by the suspect
was silver with a color design on it
and a green tree in the center. His car
was a cream-colored, four-door sedan
with radio antennas on the roof,
police reported.
The teen met with a police sketch
artist who completed a drawing of the
suspect, police said.
Police are investigating the matter
and are urging those with informa-
tion to call the department's 24-hour
dispatch center at (650) 329-2413 or
phone or sent a text to the anony-
mous tip line at (650) 383-8984.

Toronto Mayor Rob
Ford withdraws re-election bid
TORONTO Toronto Mayor Rob Ford withdrew his re-elec-
tion bid Friday as he seeks treatment for a tumor in his
abdomen, dramatically ending a cam-
paign he had doggedly pursued despite a
stint in rehab and calls for him to quit
amid drug and alcohol scandals. But he
announced his brother would run in his
place, saying we cannot go backwards.
Analysts say the decision is unlikely to
change the outcome of the mayoral elec-
tion that Ford had been widely expected
to lose after a string of revelations
involving crack-smoking, public drunk-
enness and outrageous behavior.
But Toronto wont see the last of Ford anytime soon.

ANKARA, Turkey Assembling a coali-
tion to ght the militants from the Islamic
State group is proving to be a complicated
affair.
France is all in, but would like to invite
Iran - against the wishes of the United
States. The U.S. is pressing Turkey, which
has resisted publicly endorsing the global
strategy against the extremists, who are
holding 49 Turkish hostages.
Many world leaders want to act quickly,
before the Islamic State group gains more
territory. But its crucial to reach agreement
on what the coalition is doing and why, par-
ticularly after bitter diplomatic divisions
created by the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq a
decade ago.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said as
many as 40 countries have offered various
levels of support from humanitarian aid
to cracking down on illicit cross-border
funding and ghters that are owing to the
insurgents to providing intelligence and
supplies to rebels in Syria and security
forces in Iraq.
But after more than a week of meetings
with top NATO and Mideast ofcials, Kerry
refused to say Friday precisely how a global
campaign that is being pieced together by
the U.S. would succeed in destroying the
Islamic State group, which has taken over
large parts of Iraq and Syria.
The U.S. needs serious support from
regional players if it hopes to weaken the
militants over the long term.
Kerry has persuaded key Arab allies to
join a coalition of Mideast nations that
pledged to curb the extremists resources,
repudiate their ideology, provide humani-
tarian aid to its victims and potentially con-
tribute to a military campaign.
Cobbling coalition for Iraq, Syria no easy task

WASHINGTON On the cusp of intensi-
ed airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, President
Barack Obama is using the legal grounding
of the congressional authorizations
President George W. Bush relied on more
than a decade ago to go to war. But Obama
has made no effort to ask Congress to
explicitly authorize his own conict.
The White House said again Friday that
Bush-era congressional authorizations for
the war on al-Qaida and the Iraq invasion
give Obama authority to act without new
approval by Congress under the 1973 War
Powers Act. That law, passed during the
Vietnam War, serves as a constitutional
check on presidential power to declare war
without congressional consent. It requires
presidents to notify
Congress within 48
hours of military action
and limits the use of mil-
itary forces to no more
than 60 days unless
Congress authorizes
force or declares war.
It is the view of this
administration and the
presidents national
security team specically that additional
authorization from Congress is not required,
that he has the authority that he needs to
order the military actions, White House
spokesman Josh Earnest said. He said there
were no plans to seek consent from
Congress. At this point we have not, and I
dont know of any plan to do so at this
point, he said.
Can Obama wage war without Congress?

WASHINGTON As U.S. forces gear up
for airstrikes in Syria, the rst demonstration
of President Barack Obamas more aggres-
sive military campaign against the Islamic
State group is likely to unfold rst in Iraq as
early as next week, ofcials said Friday.
In Syria, U.S. planes and drones will be
gathering intelligence on targets and air
defense threats in preparation for airstrikes
there. At the same time, a wider range of tar-
gets - perhaps including Islamic State leaders
- are expected to come under attack in Iraq.
U.S. warplanes have launched 158 strikes
in Iraq over the past ve weeks while empha-
sizing a relatively narrow set of targets. The
focus has been Obamas initial goal of
defending U.S. personnel, protecting critical
infrastructure such as major dams and
enabling humanitarian relief operations.
New strikes Friday destroyed two Islamic
State armed vehicles in an effort to support
Iraqi troops near the Mosul Dam and in
defense of Irbil, the militarys U.S. Central
Command said.
More U.S. troops, along with additional
intelligence-gathering aircraft, are expected
to arrive in northern Iraq next week. That will
enable an expanded surveillance effort over
Syria by a range of aircraft, including
Predator and Reaper drones as well as Navy
EA-18G electronic warfare planes that are
capable of jamming air defense radars and
striking ground targets.
U.S. will be ramping up
airstrikes soon in Iraq

OPINION 9
Yes on Proposition 47
Editor,
The San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors voted 3-2 Tuesday to
approve a no against Proposition
47 resolution. Proposition 47 is a
voter initiative on the November bal-
lot that will turn minor, non-violent
crimes from felonies to misde-
meanors.
There were 26 speakers in favor of
Proposition 47, against the resolu-
tion, who all spoke about why we
should change our prison system and
seek to rehabilitate people instead of
imprisoning them. Despite these tes-
timonies, the board deemed that low-
level, non-violent crimes should be
punished as felonies. Needless to say,
many of us were shocked and alarmed.
Proposition 47 afrms the harsh real-
ity that our prisons are not a place
where most people rehabilitate. It
attempts to turn back the current tide
change, the current system, which
spends twice as much money on pris-
ons than it does on schools, and rein-
vests that money into education,
rehabilitation and victim services.
Not only will Proposition 47 save
us money, it will address the crisis
faced by communities of color as a
result of mass incarceration.
Currently, heavier sentencing is con-
sistently and disproportionately
borne by people of color.
As voters, its now our turn to
decide what we want for the future of
our state. Will we choose failed, harsh
sentencing or take a different path
with Proposition 47? We will be vot-
ing for Proposition 47. We hope the
county voters will follow suit.

Vote yes on proposition 47
Editor,
This November, California citizens
have a historic opportunity to pass
Proposition 47, which will change
30 years of wrong-headed policy on
the warehousing of mentally ill and
addicted adults.
Proposition 47 will focus on deter-
ring violent crime and stop the prac-
tice of jailing small-time offenders.
Since 1980, California has embarked
on a policy of mass incarceration,
building 22 prisons and spending $9
billion annually in the process. Has
it worked? Hardly. We have a 70 per-
cent recidivism rate and our state is
under federal investigation for prison
over-crowding. Eighty percent of our
prison inmates are addicted to illegal
substances and 30 percent to 40 per-
cent suffer from serious mental ill-
ness.
Our experiment has failed. The
wheels have fallen off the cart and we
are careening toward scal ruin by
continuing down this road. Authored
by San Francisco District Attorney
George Gascon and supported by
Santa Clara County District Attorney
Jeff Rosen and San Mateo County
Manager John Maltbie, Proposition
47 will remove low-level, non-vio-
lent offenders from the jail pool. It
will improve public safety because it
will free up jail space, allowing vio-
lent offenders to stay where they
belong. The annual cost savings will
start at $150 million to $250 million
per year and increase from there.
These freed-up funds will be used in
crime prevention, truancy deterrence,
mental health and addiction treatment
programs, victim restitution and edu-
cation. No wonder Proposition 47 is
supported by the League of Women
Voters. After 30 years of one-size-ts-
all justice, we have an opportunity to
embrace a nuanced criminal justice
system that truly serves the needs of
the community. Vote yes on
Proposition 47.

Letters to the editor
The Sacramento Bee
I
t took two weeks of civil unrest
in Missouri, but the nation has
started the hard and healthy dis-
cussion about the appropriateness of
outtting local law enforcement with
military tools.
Images of Ferguson police ofcers
clad in military gear and carrying
assault ries when confronting pro-
testers angry after an ofcer fatally
shot 18-year-old Michael Brown in
August prompted a national outcry
about the militarization of police.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Senates
Homeland Security and Governmental
Affairs Committee held hearings
examining the U.S. Department of
Defenses donation of surplus military
equipment through Program 1033, as
well as other federal grant programs
that provide equipment to state and
local police agencies.
The month before, President
Barack Obama ordered a comprehen-
sive review of the $500 billion in
equipment Program 1033 has pro-
vided to local police over the last
20 years. Legislation curtailing the
donation of excessive military
equipment is in the works.
Closer to home, two California
cities Davis and San Jose are
looking at dumping armored military
trucks worth $700,000 that their
police departments recently received
from the Department of Defense for
free, minus the cost of delivery.
These actions together signal an
important shift in the publics toler-
ance of militarized local police
departments for the rst time since
9/ 11.
On the eve of the 13th anniversary
of that terrible tragedy, its a good
time for a re-evaluation of whether we
want Ofcer Friendly with a clipboard
and pen or a GI Joe with camouage
and riot helmets patrolling our com-
munities and neighborhoods.
The Davis City Council on Aug. 26
instructed its Police Department to
come back four weeks later with a
plan to get rid of its mine-resistant,
ambush-protected vehicle, known as
an MRAP, just weeks after it took
delivery of it.
The police had defended the new
tool, saying it could be used to serve
warrants on high-risk people or if
the city had an active shooter situa-
tion. Thats what authorities call mass
shooting incidents like Sandy Hook.
Residents were appalled by the idea
of a war machine on the streets of
peaceful Davis. MRAPs were devel-
oped for use in theaters of war in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
The same week, San Jose police
ofcials announced plans to give
back their MRAP as well.
We hope this gives other cities and
police departments the courage to
examine their own use of donated mil-
itary equipment, especially armored
trucks. Certainly some police depart-
ments can justify the need for a bullet-
proof troop transport. Los Angeles,
Chicago and New York police depart-
ments come to mind.
But probably not more than 600
cities.
Among the fact revealed in
Tuesdays Senate hearing was that, in
the past three years Program 1033 has
given 624 armored vehicles to local
law enforcement agencies across the
U.S., about a dozen of which went to
police departments with fewer than 10
full-time sworn ofcers.
In other words, Mayberry PD.

age of 25. Motivated to actively engage my communi-
ty by promoting policies that provide for a prosperous and
sustainable economy, lower taxes for hardworking
Americans and a quality education system with more school
choice and the best curriculum, I worked
tirelessly to establish and drive a cam-
paign strategy that would help me con-
nect with voters on a personal level.
Months into the race, I took notice
that others in the community joined my
cause. Although my campaign team start-
ed with me and my wife Lindsey, as many
as 50 people had joined my campaign by
April 2014. After months of relentlessly
campaigning, holding speeches and
forums, the June 3 primary Election Day arrived. The voter
tally read Mark Gilham: 15.1 percent; Jonathan Madison:
13.8 percent. I had been defeated in the race. Of approxi-
mately 20,000 people who voted, just 753 more people
voted for my opponent. Gilham will be challenging incum-
bent Kevin Mullin for the 22nd District seat in the
California Assembly in the Nov. 4 election. Nevertheless, it
was a landmark race for me.
Defeat can also teach you about weaknesses of which you
were not aware. Perhaps, I could have been more articulate in
my views for the community, knocked on more doors or
walked more precincts. In spite of the outcome of the race, I
am encouraged by the results and the many actively engaged
residents, whether they are Republican, Democrat or decline
to state. In mobilizing my campaign team, I learned great
organizational skills and a great deal about leadership.
Throughout my race, I was reminded that individuals and
policies could have a meaningful impact on communities.
Through interacting with residents of the county, I learned
quickly how to articulate my political positions. The most
frequent question that I was asked was, Youre Black and
Republican? Most of the time, I would smile and nod. The
next question I would often get is, Why the Republican
Party? What have, and what can, Republicans do for minori-
ties, particularly here in the San Mateo County? Most
often, when posed this question, a Republican in response
will reference historic and anecdotal evidence for what the
party has achieved for minorities. Notably, Abraham
Lincoln, one of the most renowned presidents in U.S. histo-
ry, who freed slaves through the Emancipation
Proclamation, was a Republican.
Put simply, I am a Republican because I have more faith in
the power of the individual than I do in the power of the fed-
eral government. The party has historically advocated for
and continues to cherish values that can be employed as
tools to teach human beings of every race the value of hard
work, success, love and how to sustain and take care of
ones family.
You and I have witnessed countless miracles produced by
these values throughout history, from human beings prob-
ing space to our capacity to cure diseases that have plagued
humanity for centuries. These values are at the very heart
and sinew of the individual and still ow through the veins
of our democracy. The fact is that the answer to our educa-
tional, economic and societal factors may not always lie
written in red ink on a check. I believe that success, educa-
tion, love, compassion and drive all starts with the individ-
ual.
The nal and most substantive question that I was asked as
a candidate was, What do you envision for our county under
new leadership? I would answer, lower taxes for hardwork-
ing Americans and a better education system, which would
provide for a prosperous economy. Please elaborate on
how we could achieve those goals that every politician talks
about in every election cycle. I would say something along
these lines.
Hardworking Americans should be rewarded for their
efforts in the work force, not buried in taxes.
Every child of this county deserves to have quality educa-
tion. Quality education means more school choice, the best
curriculum and standards that can accurately assess the
progress that children are making in our schools.
Hardworking Americans, not the government, build sus-
tainable economies. Sustainable economies are leveraged
by free-market conditions that provide an opportunity for
people of every race to climb the socioeconomic ladder of
success.

NEWYORK The prospect of ris-
ing interest rates sent the stock mar-
ket to its first weekly loss since early
August.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
fell 11.91 points, or 0.6 percent, to
end at 1,985.54 on Friday. The index
was down 1.1 percent for the week.
Declines were led by utility compa-
nies and other stocks that pay high
dividends. Those stocks have been in
favor this year as investors hunt for
other sources of income because bond
yields have been low.
Now that the yield on the ultra-safe
10-year Treasury note has shot to
2.61 percent its highest level in
two months investors are less
willing to hold riskier stocks, even
those paying a rich dividend.
The recent rise in bond yields was
bolstered Friday by a report showing
that U.S. retail sales rose faster last
month than economists forecast.
That reinforced expectations that the
Federal Reserve may start hiking
interest rates sooner than expected.
The central bank has nearly finished
winding down its stimulus program
and policy makers start a two-day
meeting on Tuesday.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note has now climbed for seven
straight days.
As the economic data continues to
move along this positive trajectory,
interest rates are going to rise, said
Quincy Krosby, a market strategist at
Prudential Financial. The market is
going to have to accept that.
Other stock indexes fell Friday. The
Dow Jones industrial average lost
61.49 points, or 0.4 percent, to
16, 987. 51 The Nasdaq composite
dropped 24.21 points, or 0.5 per-
cent, to 4,567.60.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note has risen from 2.34 percent at
the start of the month and is trading
at its highest level since early July.
Higher interest rates mean that
companies and consumers have to
pay more to borrow, leaving them
with lower profits and less money to
spend.
Yet investors shouldnt jump the
gun on concerns that rising rates will
end the stock markets five-year bull
run, said Randy Frederick, a manag-
ing director of trading and derivatives
with the Schwab Center for Financial
Research. As long as the economy is
improving, stocks can continue to
move higher.
Generally, the market goes
through a correction and then the bull
market continues, Frederick said.
On Friday, high dividend payers,
like utilities and telecoms stocks,
sold off. Real estate investment
trusts also slumped.
Utility stocks fell 1.8 percent, the
biggest drop of the 10 sectors that
make up the S&P 500. Energy stocks
dropped 1.5 percent and phone com-
pany shares slumped 1.2 percent.
The price of oil fell on concerns
that global demand is falling while
supplies remain ample. Benchmark
U.S. crude fell 52 cents to close at
$92.27 a barrel on the New York.
Brent crude, a benchmark for interna-
tional oils used by many U.S. refiner-
ies, fell 12 cents to close at $97.96
in London. It was Brents first close
below $98 since April of 2013.
Wholesale gasoline fell 0.5 cent to
close at $2.519 a gallon, heating oil
fell 1.5 cents to close at $2.741 a
gallon and natural gas rose 3.4 cents
to close at $3.857 per 1,000 cubic
feet.
In metals trading, gold fell $7.50
to $1,231.50 an ounce. Silver rose 1
cent to $18.61 an ounce and copper
climbed 1.4 cents to $3.11 a pound.
In currency trading, the dollar
remained firm. The euro was 0.2 per-
cent higher at $1.2950 while the dol-
lar rose 0.3 percent to 107.36
against the Japanese yen.
Stocks decline amid interest rate worries
By Josh Boak
WASHINGTON Auto buying drove U.S.
retail sales higher in August, a possible
sign that job growth in recent months has
led to accelerated consumer spending.
The Commerce Department said Friday
that seasonally adjusted retail sales rose 0.6
percent compared with the prior month.
Sales are up 5 percent in the past 12
months. July sales were also revised upward
from at to a 0.3 percent increase.
Motor vehicles accounted for roughly half
of the August increase. Buying also picked
up at restaurants and for furniture, electron-
ics, sporting goods and building materials.
Those gains were partially offset by
falling sales at gasoline stations and depart-
ment stores.
The gures suggest that Americans reluc-
tance to spend has faded somewhat, even
though their wages have yet to increase by
much. The increase in retail sales could
boost overall economic growth because
consumer spending accounts for 70 percent
of the economic activity.
Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at
Capital Economics, said that the sales
increase points to stronger economic
growth through the end of the year and start
of 2015.
With further jobs gains, rises in income
growth and a loosening in credit conditions
in the pipeline, consumption growth should
strengthen in the fourth quarter and into
next year too, Dales said.
But there are mixed signals from other
indicators regarding consumers.
The University of Michigan said its index
of consumer sentiment rose to 82.5 in
August from 81.8 in July. But much of that
increase was due to greater optimism about
jobs, rising incomes, and increasing wealth
among higher-income groups.
The pace of hiring slipped in August after
several months of strong gains.
Employers added just 142,000 jobs last
month, well below the 212,000 average of
the previous 12 months. The unemploy-
ment rate fell to 6.1 percent, from 6.2 per-
cent. But that was because more people
without jobs stopped looking for one and
were no longer counted as unemployed.
Olive Garden investor:
Back off on the breadsticks
NEW YORK Maybe there is such a
thing as too many breadsticks.
In a nearly 300-page treatise on whats
wrong with Olive Garden and its manage-
ment, investor Starboard Value suggests the
Italian restaurant chain is being reckless
with its unlimited breadsticks. The hedge
fund notes the chains ofcial policy is to
bring out one breadstick per customer at a
time, plus an extra for the table.
But Starboard says servers bring out more
than that, leading to waste and cold
breadsticks.
U.S. retail sales rise in

SPARKS, Nev. Now that Gov. Brian
Sandoval has signed into law a package of
incentives for Tesla Motors worth up to
$1.3 billion, the electric-car maker is mov-
ing ahead with plans to build a $5 billion
lithium battery factory expected to open
east of Sparks in 2017 and employ 6,500
workers to make cheaper batteries so it can
afford to mass market a new line of more
affordable vehicles.
Here are answers to some of the most fre-
quently asked questions about the
California-based company and its gigafac-
tory:
When will construction begin and
when can we expect it to start pro-
ducing batteries?
Site preparation began in July at the
Tahoe Reno Industrial Center along U.S.
Interstate 80 east of Sparks, a suburb of
Reno. Pouring of concrete could begin at
any time with actual construction underway
by next year and continuing until 2017
when the factory is scheduled to open. It is
expected to reach full production the follow-
ing year.
How bi g wi l l the gi gafactory be?
The factory itself is expected to cover as
much as 10,000 square feet, an area equal to
174 football elds. Tesla CEO Elon Musk
said it will be the largest lithium battery fac-
tory in the world.
When and how many jobs will be
produced?
The factory is projected to employ up to
6,500 workers by the time it is scheduled to
go into full production in 2018. The
Governors Office of Economic
Development projects 3,000 construction
jobs will be created, beginning with 700 in
2015. Another 1,000 direct jobs are forecast
to be added in 2016 with an additional 3,000
by 2017.

Business brief
By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO Madison Bumgarner
pitched himself into the San Francisco
record book, took a share of the major
league lead for wins and, most important to
the soft-spoken southpaw, moved his team
one step closer in an NLWest race that could
go down to the wire.
Bumgarner struck out eight on the way to
his 18th victory, and the Giants moved
within one game of NL West-leading Los
Angeles by beating the Dodgers 9-0 on
Friday night.
Its not hard to get up for the Dodgers
series, especially the circumstances were
in, Bumgarner said. The offense did an
unbelievable job and kept scoring runs.
Pinch-hitter Travis Ishikawa splashed a
three-run homer into McCovey Cove, and
Brandon Crawford hit a two-run drive in the
fifth to help Bumgarner win his fifth
straight start. Buster Posey and Crawford hit
RBI doubles in the rst as the Giants jumped
on Hyun-Jin Ryu (14-7).
The Dodgers left-hander exited after only
one inning because of irritation in his
pitching shoulder. He said its similar to the
problem he dealt with in May that landed
him on the disabled list, raising doubt
whether he will pitch again this season.
Ryu will be re-examined Saturday in the
Bay Area.
Im staying positive. I felt this before in
the past, so hopefully it will be the same
time that it took to recover from that, Ryu
said through a translator. I think it was a
week or two.
San Francisco, which leads the NL wild-
card race, is one game back of Los Angeles
for the rst time since Aug. 4. The Giants
have won a season-best 10 straight home
games after handing the Dodgers their fth
shutout loss.
This group has its swagger back at home.
Its as good as it can be. Its been that
way for a while now, Bumgarner said.
Weve got a lot of guys who have been here
and done this before.

Hillsdale quarterback Brett Wetteland celebrates Tyler Gonzales69-yard touchdown catch on
the rst drive of the third quarter as the Knights beat Lincoln-SF 27-6.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With less than two minutes to play in the
rst half, the Hillsdale football team was
staring at a 6-0 decit against Lincoln-SF as
the Knights offense struggled to nd any
kind of rhythm.
With 17 seconds left, however, the
Knights nally found the end zone and their
mojo. A James Hollon 22-yard touchdown
run and an Eli Kertel extra point gave
Hillsdale a 7-6 lead at halftime which gave
the Knights the spark they needed to pull
away from the Mustangs in the second half
on their way to a 27-6 win.
Hillsdale (1-1) managed just 97 yards of
offense in the rst two quarters, but had 209
in the second half to nish the game with
306 yards of total offense.
While the Knights offense was moving in
ts and starts in the rst two quarters, the
defense was on top of its game. Hillsdale did
a good job of containing Lincolns Akeal
Lalaind, who rushed for 254 yards in a 36-20
win over Irvington last week. Friday, the
Knights limited him to just 82 yards on 18
carries.
In fact, the Knights held the Mustangs to
just 173 yards of total offense from scrim-
mage and just 27 yards in the second half as
Lalaind and Jacquez Williams, Lincolns two
most dangerous weapons, missed most of
the second half with leg cramps.
Defense was just phenomenal tonight,
said Hillsdale coach Mike Parodi. They
bailed us (our offense) out. Kept us in the
game.
We had our backs against the wall a lot.
The key play of the game came on the
Knights rst drive of the third quarter. After
taking the second-half kickoff, the Knights
started at their own 27. Facing a third-and-
long, quarterback Brett Wetteland looked to
the right sideline where Tyler Gonzales was
running a simple go pattern. Wetteland
lofted a perfectly arced pass that dropped

Two years removed from capturing the
Central Coast Section Division I champi-
onship, Menlo-Atherton volleyball is off to
another promising start.
The Bears are undefeated through three
matches, after handling Menlo School in
straight sets Friday night, 25-16, 25-11, 25-
16.
The rivals have set into motion a seesaw bat-
tle for dominance in CCS. After M-As title run
in 2012, Menlo claimed the Northern
California championship in 2013.
Now, M-Alooks poised to see the pendulum
swing back toward the east side of Atherton
with its dynamic sophomore setter Kirby
Knapp at the helm of a multifaceted offense.
Last season as a freshman, Knapp ew under
the radar as a veritable unknown until she gar-
nered MaxPreps.com Freshman All-American
honors. The numbers speak for themselves.
She tabbed 1,028 assists setting for power hit-
ters Pauli King, Devin Joos and Leanna Collins
as the Bears advanced to the CCS Division I
seminals.
Weve always had a lot of big personalities
on this team, Menlo-Atherton head coach Ron
Whitmill said. Theyre very well-known play-
ers. They have a lot of attention. So, its really
difcult for someone her age to walk on the
court and still dictate when there are players
like that around her that are older than her; and
also that are as experienced and as good as they
are. So, its not really that common (for a fresh-
man to do what she did last year), to be honest
with you.
Knapp is not your common athlete. On the
court, despite her 5-foot-6 frame, she plays as
big as anyone. For the year-round volleyballer
shes played with the prestigious Vision
club for the past four seasons Knapp has
something of a superhero stigma. While on the
court she is a dynamic presence, yet off the
court is the exact opposite.
Outside of volleyball Im pretty quiet, so its
kind of cool for me to come out on the court and
be super outgoing, Knapp said. At school I
dont talk that much, so I just ip it on.
When she stepped into the fray at the start of
last season, it gave M-A a true setter. Sounds
like a simple order to requisition. Not during
Whitmills tenure with the program, however.
Taking the helm at M-Ain 2012, Whitmill led
his squad to the CCS title without a true setter in
the mix.
Whitmill parsed opposite hitter Ali Spindt
and middle hitter Katelyn Doherty into dual set-
ters as part of a 6-2 offense. When the 14-year-
old Knapp arrived in the varsity gym last year

Capuchino quarterback Tony Pellegrini
was beginning to wonder if the feeling
would ever come back.
After enduring a 1-9 season the year
before, the morale in the Mustangs locker
room had hit a low point, pushed to the edge
by the regularity of losing.
The victorious feeling made a triumphant
return to Pellegrini and the Mustangs Friday
night when Capuchino spoiled South San
Franciscos home opener with a 14-7 victo-
ry.
When you start losing games consistent-
l y, you get in that mood where it takes away
the fun from playing, said Pellegrini, who
rushed 14 times for 162 yards and two touch-
downs. Its indescribable what this feels
like. I havent felt this in so long.
Back in February, newly hired Capuchino
head coach Ben White had his rst meeting
with the Mustangs football team. After the
meeting had concluded, Pellegrini
approached his new coach and shook his
hand.
I told him I hadnt won a football game in
a year, Pellegrini recalled.
White responded by handing Pellegrini
two CDs that contained the entire offense
the Mustangs were going to run in 2014.
I knew this guy was no joke, Pellegrini
said.
The start of Whites career with
Capuchino, however, yielded the same
results the team was getting used to. In the
teams opener, Capuchino lost 33-14 to

By the time Los Gatos quarterback Dru
Brown started high-ving the chain crew, it
was already clearly going to be the Wildcats
day.
Brown and his offense took advantage of
great eld position throughout the rst half to
lead Los Gatos to a 35-7 win Friday afternoon
at Menlo-Atherton. The Wildcats, who took a
shutout into the fourth quarter, started three of
their rst four series of the day in Bears terri-
tory.
With Menlo-Atherton keying on senior
fullback Joey Wood last years Santa Clara
Valley Athletic League De Anza Division
Outstanding Running Back Brown stole
the show with the best game of his varsity
career, completing 14 of 18 passes for 188
yards and two touchdowns.
We were trying to line up and stop their run
game, Menlo-Atherton head coach Sione
Taufoou said. [Wood] starts their offense.
They have a good O-line and are well coached,
and their quarterback made plays. It was
impressive.
The only thing to go the Bears way all day
was a fumble recovery late in the third quarter
to set up their only score. With M-Atrailing
35-0, defensive lineman Ezequiel Galvan-
Navarro pounced on a Los Gatos fumble to
give the Bears the ball at their own 28-yard
line. It set up a 12-play, 72-yard drive punctu-
ated by a 19-yard touchdown pass from Robby
Beardsley to Chase DelRosso.
Beardsley was 9-of-15 passing for 85 yards
on the game. Otherwise, it was all Los Gatos
as the defending Central Coast Section
Division II champions outgained M-Ain total
offense yards 362-167.
The Bears had a golden opportunity slip
through their ngers on the opening kickoff
when Los Gatos returner Quinn Spiteri fum-
bled deep in Wildcats territory. Several M-A
players got their hands on the loose football,
but it was ultimately recovered by Los Gatos
Mitchell Schwager.
The M-Adefense came out keying on Wood,
but Los Gatos countered with a variety of
offensive looks, utilizing four different run-
ning backs on its opening series. The two
biggest gains of the drive didnt belong to
Wood, but to junior Ryan Gault on an end
around for 16 yards and to senior Nick
Stojanovich, who barreled for 15 yards on a
sweep play in which he broke three tackles to
advance the ball to the M-A20-yard line.
Two plays later, Brown got his Wildcats on
the board midway through the rst quarter
with a 12-yard touchdown strike to junior
wide receiver Ben Stanley.
Its all about seeing what theyre doing and
then you counterpunch, Los Gatos second-
year head coach Mark Krail said. If theyre
going to spread the eld then were going to
try and run it up inside and go to the pass.
Los Gatos swiftly struck again. Taking
advantage of a fumble by the Bears on their
third play from scrimmage, the Wildcats con-
verted a six-play drive in just over three min-
utes culminating in a 3-yard run by Wood to
stake his team to a 14-0 lead.
Wood paced all rushers in the game with 75
yards on 14 carries. Los Gatos successfully
utilized 12 rushers out of the backeld
throughout the game, and saw 19 offensive
skills players handle the ball throughout.
After Los Gatos only failed possession of
the half which only ended because, on
fourth down, Browns intended target had a
ball go right through his hands on a surere
rst-down route the Wildcats followed by
marching 47 yards in 3 minutes, 6 seconds to
set up Browns second touchdown strike of the
day. Brown scrambled from the pocket and
had plenty of time with no heat from the M-A
rush to nd Miles Beach in the middle of the
end zone.
The senior quarterback starting just his
second varsity game celebrated the score
by showboating up the sideline, sharing a
series of high-ves with game personnel,
including the chain crew.
With just under a minute in the rst half,
Los Gatos went up 28-0. Arapid ve-play, 80-
yard drive saw Wood advance a screen pass 44
yards to put the Wildcats within striking dis-
tance at the M-A24-yard line. Two plays later,
Wood ran a trap play through three Bears
defenders to keep his feet into the end zone.
Wood ended the day with 134 all-purpose
yards.
The matchup was a nearly identical outcome
of last seasons CCS Division II seminal
game, in which Los Gatos prevailed over M-A
35-6. Earlier in the year during nonleague
Week 2 play, the Bears downed the Wildcats
19-10.
With two losses to start the season M-A
fell to Campalindo 35-3 on Sept. 5
Taufoou is hopeful this years challenging
nonleague schedule will prepare M-A for
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division play,
which begins Oct. 10 against Burlingame.
We just hope it prepares us for league,
Taufoou said. Weve got two more tough
[nonleague games against Riordan and
Monterey]. Im hoping by the time league
comes around that were playing well and
were playing better than we are right now.

SEATTLE Before beginning the most
important home series of the season, Seattle
coach Lloyd McClendon had a brief message.
The playoffs for the Mariners start now.
I told my guys, this is real simple This is
really playoff baseball, McClendon said.
Averages, slumps, all those things are out the
window. What you did against a guy last time
really makes no difference. It's all about grind-
ing your at-bats out, staying in your inner circle
and believing in each other. If you do that you
have a good chance to get it done.
Clearly McClendons team paid attention and
now Seattle is just a half-game behind in the AL
wild-card chase after beating Oakland 4-2 on
Friday night.
Robinson Cano, Kendrys Morales and Logan
Morrison all homered as Seattle took another
chunk out of Oaklands wild-card lead that was
double digits in early August. Seattle and Kansas
City are tied behind the As, who have dropped
12 of their last 15.
Cano hit his 13th homer in the rst inning
and Morrison added his eighth in the fth
inning, both off Jason Hammel (10-11).
Morales hit a line drive out to right-center eld
off Eric OFlaherty in the sixth.
We played a good game today, but we have to
be ready for tomorrow, Cano said.
Seattle starter James Paxton (6-2) pitched six
innings despite control trouble. Paxton walked
three batters in the third inning alone, but
struck out eight and three times left runners
stranded in scoring position.
Fernando Rodney pitched the ninth for his
45th save despite giving up a pair of singles to
open the inning. Rodney tied Kazuhiro Sasakis
franchise record for saves in a season. Rodney
didnt know about the record until being told
postgame.
Its a lot of saves, 45, but 16 games left want
to continue it rolling, pitch good and make
good pitches, Rodney said. Its a good series
we have in here right now with Oakland and we
see what happens tomorrow.
Canos homer skimmed the top of the left-
eld wall and gave Seattle a 1-0 lead. Morrisons
drive curled inside the right-eld foul pole,
breaking a 2-2 tie. Morrisons homer came at
the same time reworks erupted across the street
at CenturyLink Field when the Seattle Sounders
scored in their MLS match with Real Salt Lake.
Seattle also got a bloop RBI double from
Mike Zunino that Oakland left elder Jonny
Gomes appeared to lose in the lights.
Hammel was lifted after the fth despite
throwing just 78 pitches, partly because of
issues with Oaklands batting order. The As lost
their designated hitter in the bottom of the third
inning when Geovany Soto left with back
spasms. Derek Norris took over behind the
plate but the As lost their DH in the move.
Hammel batted in the top of the fourth and
reached on a elders choice after an errant throw
allowed Nate Freiman to reach second. Freiman
later scored on Sam Fulds bunt to pull Oakland
even at 2-2.
Kind of unlucky the way it went tonight,
Hammel said. Both pitches that left he yard I
would throw them again.
Seattle uses long ball to beat As
Burlingame and against South San
Francisco, it was the Warriors who jumped
out rst.
Following a three-and-out by Capuchino
to begin the game, South San Francisco
took over deep in the Mustangs territory.
The Warriors would eventually strike rst.
Fullback Peter Lopez took a carry over the
left side for nine yards to give the Warriors
an early 7-0 lead.
The offensive struggles for the Mustangs
continued. Capuchino didnt get a rst down
until 1:22 left in the first quarter. In
response, coach White decided to simplify
the offense.
I just put the ball in my quarterbacks
hands and let him run, White said. Hes
the best athlete on the eld. It doesnt take a
rocket scientist to gure that out.
Pellegrini took advantage of his coachs
trust. With a minute remaining in the half,
and 12 yards away from the endzone, White
called a quarterback keeper to the right side.
After the ball was snapped, Pellegrini saw
the right side was clogged up and made a
change.
I saw the (left) lane and I took it,
Pellegrini said.
Pellegrini sprinted left and easily scored a
touchdown. On the following PAT,
Pellegrini, also the place holder, mishan-
dled the snap and took off running once
again, crossing the endzone for the two-
point conversion.
Thats just him being an athlete and mak-
ing a play, White said.
Throughout the course of the game, Lopez
proved to be South San Franciscos main
source of offense. With 4:25 left in the third
quarter, Lopez broke loose down the left
sideline for a 55-yard gain. The big play put
the Warriors on the 1-yard line, primed to
take the lead. However, Capuchino made
ve stops in a row (a facemask penalty on
fourth down continued the drive) to take
over on downs.
We had it, Lopez said, We just didnt
grab it.
With the fourth quarter dwindling away,
Pellegrini sealed the game with a 67-yard
touchdown carry. Originally, the play was
supposed to go to running back David
Ortega, but a miscommunication rendered
the play broken. Pellegrini relied on what
his coach had told him in practice to get out
of the jam.
Coach always tells me that if its a bust-
ed play, dont fall down, try to get as much
as you can, Pellegrini said.
With time running out, and the score at
14-7, South San Francisco back-up quarter-
back Kolson Pua threw an interception to
Capuchinos Joe Gutierrez. When the team
entered the victory formation, coach White
was busy hugging assistant coaches and
players on the sidelines. The winning feel-
ing had returned to Capuchino.
Ive been telling them since Day One
that theyre a good team and they just have
to believe in themselves, coach White said
behind a pair of glasses and a smile. You
have to put last year in the past and keep
moving forward.

though, she became an immediate candidate
around whom to build an atypical offense.
[Spindt and Doherty] did a great job, obvi-
ously. We won CCS with them, Whitmill said.
But last year, the rst (true) setter weve had in
the program since Ive been here has been
Kirby, and she was a freshman. And we just
threw her to the wolves.
The big question was: were we going to be
able to get away with playing with a freshman
setter all year? Ill be honest with you, in the
beginning of the season, the rst few matches
it was kind of a question mark whether we were
going to play her. It was kind of like, Lets
play her and see how it goes. After a few
games, we just watched her get better and better
every game. So, by our fourth or fth match of
the season, it was kind of a no-brainer that we
were going to be better with her setting.
Knapp has earned the respect of her team-
mates, even if she cant set all the powerful M-
Ahitters all the time.
She works really hard out there, and I think
shes one of the best (setters), said Collins, a
junior. I think shes really consistent and sets
us really well. And she stepped up really well
last year. I think it was really awesome.
Collins tabbed eight kills Friday against
Menlo while Joos paced the team with 10 kills.
Yet senior Ally Ostrow had just six kills on the
match and senior middle hitter Katie Wilcox
had none all because Knapp was playing the
matchups, according to Whitmill.
She has the condence to not set someone
the whole game if the matchup is not good,
Whitmill said. And she will repeatedly go to
the matchup that works good for us.
But thats part of the secret to Knapps suc-
cess.
A lot of it is that we have good hitters,
Whitmill said. But its also that she made good
decisions with the ball and found those good
hitters when we needed to.
And with wins over Valley Christian, Los
Gatos and now Menlo to start the season, it
would seem Knapp is indeed making all the
right decisions.

Oscar Pistorius convicted
of culpable homicide
PRETORIA, South Africa Ajudge convict-
ed Oscar Pistorius of culpable homicide Friday
in the death of his girlfriend, ruling that the for-
mer track star was negligent when he opened re
in his home after hearing what he said sounded
like an intruder in a bathroom in the middle of
the night.
The judge acquitted Pistorius of a more serious
murder charge, a day after saying that the one-
time Olympian could have called security guards
or screamed for help on the balcony instead of
grabbing his handgun and blasting multiple
rounds through the door of a toilet stall.
Under South African law, culpable homicide is
the illegal killing of someone through irre-
sponsible behavior. The charge is comparable
to reckless homicide or manslaughter.
The sentence for a culpable homicide convic-
tion is at the judge's discretion and can range
from a suspended sentence and a ne to as much
as 15 years in prison. Legal experts have cited
ve years as a guideline.

TRANSACTIONS
By Dave Campbell
MINNEAPOLIS Star
Minnesota Vikings running back
Adrian Peterson has been indicted
in Texas on a charge of child abuse
after using a branch to spank his
son, and was swiftly benched by
the team on Friday for this week-
end's game against New England.
Petersons attorney, Rusty
Hardin, said that the charge in
Montgomery County accuses
Peterson of using a branch, or
switch, to spank one of his sons,
whose age was not disclosed.
Hardin said Peterson has cooperat-
ed with authorities and didnt mean
any harm.
Adrian is a loving father who
used his judgment as a parent to dis-
cipline his son. He used the same
kind of discipline with his child
that he experienced as a child grow-
ing up in east Texas, Hardin said.
Adrian has never hidden from
what happened. He has cooperated
fully with authorities and voluntar-
ily testied before the grand jury
for several hours. Adrian will
address the charges with the same
respect and responsiveness he has
brought to this inquiry from its
beginning. It is important to
remember that Adrian never intend-
ed to harm his son and deeply
regrets the unintentional injury.
The Vikings, about an hour after
issuing a statement acknowledging
the case but deferring questions to
Hardin, said Peterson would be on
the inactive list for their home
opener against New England.
A warrant has been issued for
Petersons arrest, and he will have
to turn himself in. There is no time-
line for when he will appear in
Texas, his attorney said.
The NFL didnt immediately
respond to a request for comment
on Petersons situation.
Peterson is in his eighth season,
all of them with the Vikings.
Widely considered the best running
back in the league, he has rushed
for 10,190 yards and 86 touch-
downs in his career. Peterson did
not practice on Thursday because of
what coach Mike Zimmer called a
veteran day, allowing experi-
enced players to rest, but Peterson
was at the team facility that day and
spoke to reporters about the
upcoming game against the
Patriots.

just over the Lincoln defender and into the
arms of Gonzales. Catching it near the
Lincoln 40, Gonzales motored the rest of
the way into the end zone for a 69-scoring
strike and Hillsdale had a 14-6 lead.
Coach (Andre) Kelley was on top of that
one. He saw something and I said, Lets do
it, Parodi said.
Hillsdale increased its lead to 21-6 with
under a minute to play in the third quarter
when Cameron Taylor took a handoff, stut-
ter-stepped his way through the mass of
bodies at the line of scrimmage and scam-
pered 13 yards to cap a six-play, 72-yard
drive.
The Knights rounded out the scoring with
just over two minutes to play in the game
when Hollon scored his second touchdown
of the night from two yards out to punctuate
a six-play, 44-yard drive for a 27-6 lead.
Hollon nished the game with 85 yards
rushing on 21 carries, while Taylor had 68
on eight carries. Wetteland, who struggled
early as he missed four of his rst ve pass
attempts, nished with a ourish. He com-
pleted nine of his nal 10 attempts includ-
ing his nal seven in a row and amassed
175 yards.
Gonzales was his main target, nishing
with four catches for 114 yards.
Hillsdale seemed to nd its rhythm once it
went to its no-huddle offense. The Knights
used their two-minute offense at the end of
the rst half to take the lead and then went
to the no-huddle in the second half.
We just wanted to see what they
(Lincoln) was doing (defensively), Parodi
said. It gives us more opportunities to
adjust.
Parodi said he didnt use it earlier because
he was trying to limit Lincolns posses-
sion. He didnt want Lalaind and Williams to
have too many opportunities to burn his
team.
We wanted to keep the ball, keep posses-
sion, Parodi said.
What kept Lincoln in the game early were
three rst-half fumbles by Hillsdale. The
Knights appeared to be on their way to a
rst-quarter touchdown, but a Hollon fumble
near the goal line was recovered by Lincoln
in the end zone for a touchback. The teams
exchanged fumbles early in the second quar-
ter and their third turnover came following
Lincolns only score of the night a 36-
yard run from Williams.
It was deja vu all over again, Parodi
said, alluding to the five turnovers the
Knights had in a 28-27 loss to Saratoga the
previous week.
What felt good was [Lincoln] didnt cap-
italize.
KNIGHTS
SANTA CLARA If somewhat unknown
before as a backup, Colin Kaepernicks break-
out performance against the Chicago Bears
two years ago helped make him a star.
The San Francisco 49ers turned what had
been hyped as an NFC showdown into a rout
on the primetime stage at Candlestick Park,
and Kaepernick played a huge role.
He can only hope to be as dominant again
while facing Chicago in his Levis Stadium
debut on Sunday, under the lights once more.
Not that Kaepernick is reecting when
asked about his rst start.
2-0 benchmark is what were looking for,
he said.
Thrust into action after then-starter Alex
Smith nursed a concussion, Kaepernick threw
for 243 yards and two touchdowns as the
Niners pounded the Bears 32-7.
Just like his quarterback, coach Jim
Harbaugh would rather focus on Kaepernicks
latest performance: 16 of 23 for 201 yards
without an interception in a Week 1 win at
Dallas.
Good memories of that, the coach said of
the 2012 game. And even better memories of
the way he played (Sunday).
Harbaugh described how Kaepernick wrist-
throws a BB to Vernon Davis in the end zone
for a touchdown. I mean, in my estimation
theres only two people that could make those
two plays, one is Colin Kaepernick and the
other has an S on his chest.
Chicago (0-1) looks to bounce back in a
hurry from being stunned by the Bills 23-20
in overtime at home. The Bears allowed 17
straight points, and now begin a daunting
stretch with six of eight games on the road.

Los Angeles lined up its top starters for
this series, while Giants manager Bruce
Bochy opted to keep his pitchers on their
regular schedule because things have been
working well so far in September.
Its for rst place. Were a game behind
them, Crawford said. We know the
stakes.
The Dodgers had the best road record in
baseball and swept the Giants in three
games at AT&T Park from July 25-27
outscoring San Francisco 17-4.
Its live theater every night, we just
dont know the ending here, Dodgers man-
ager Don Mattingly said before the game.
Posey hit an RBI double in the rst that
sent the orange towel-twirling fans into a
frenzy. Hunter Pence followed with a run-
scoring single, then Joaquin Arias added an
RBI single.
San Franciscos home winning streak is
its longest since an 11-game run from July
7-25, 2003, which is the best in the 15-year
history of AT&T Park. The shutout matched
the Giants largest at home against the
Dodgers since moving to San Francisco in
1958.
The Giants also beat Los Angeles 9-0 on
June 25, 1968.
Bumgarner needs two wins over his nal
three starts to become the Giants rst 20-
game winner since John Burkett (22) and
Bill Swift (21) in 1993. Bumgarner has 207
strikeouts, most in a season by a San
Francisco left-hander.
Ishikawas second career pinch-hit homer
was the 102nd into the water and 67th by a
San Francisco hitter.
Its a big series, Bochy said. Any time
you can jump ahead, its huge for the club.

Orioles slugger Chris Davis
suspended 25 games
BALTIMORE Orioles slugger Chris
Davis was suspended 25 games without pay
on Friday following a positive test for an
amphetamine, a punishment that will extend
into the postseason and perhaps 2015.
Baltimore started Friday leading the AL
East by 10 games with 17 left in the regular
season, so the team will be without the
2013 home run champion deep into the
playoffs.
Adderall is a drug often used in the treat-
ment of attention decit hyperactivity dis-
order and narcolepsy, and 119 TUEs were
issued for 40-man roster players in the year
ending with the 2013 postseason. It is,
however, also known as a performance and
cognitive enhancer.
Initial positive tests for a banned stimu-
lant result in the player being given an addi-
tional six unannounced urine tests over the
12 months following the violation. The 25-
game discipline is the penalty for a second
positive test.
Davis has denied ever using performance-
enhancing drugs.
Baseball brief
By Dominic Gialdini
C
oinciding with the onslaught of
their last year of high school,
members of the class of 2015 are
faced with one of the most dreaded parts of
adolescence applying to colleges.
From the beginning of
the academic school year
until May 1, seniors will
be writing and rewriting
essays, searching for
teachers to put a good
word in for them through
letters of recommenda-
tion and dealing with
their egos after receiving
letters of acceptance and rejection from col-
leges.
The college application process is by no
means a pleasurable experience; long hours
of lling out trivial information about one-
self, answering various yes or no questions
and attempting to nd sources of nancial
aid are enough to make ones eyes feel
abused. This only adds to the mental dis-
tress catalyzed by the ceaseless search for a
college compatible with ones interests and
needs. Numerous details must be taken into
account: is the school private or public,
rural or urban, close to home or across the
country? Add on the realization that a
major, which will affect ones entire future
and livelihood, must be chosen and the
process becomes borderline agonizing.
After the most important step, narrowing
down the list of colleges (and making sure
that there are an ideal combination of
reach, safety and target schools), students
must decide how they will tackle the appli-
cation process. This includes whether they
will apply early action, early decision
(which would obligate them to go to the
school in the event that they are accepted)
or regular decision. After that, they must
begin applying to each of the schools.
While the whole process at rst glance
appears improbable to accomplish, many
students will lessen the burden and make
use of one signicant source of solace: the
Common Application. With more than 500
colleges that accept it, the Common
Application, which went live Aug. 1,
makes applying to multiple schools more
feasible and efcient.
Perhaps the most worrisome aspect of the
Applying oneself

Five years out of high school in the late
50s, three guys hope to win the Big
Whopper Radio contest and hit the big-time
as a doo-wop singing group.
Thats the plot line on which writer-direc-
tor Roger Bean has hung Life Could Be a
Dream. In actuality, its a way to combine
some of the biggest hits from the late 50s
and early 60s into a rollicking trip down
memory lane, now at Center REPertory
Company.
Its hard to resist humming along to such
tunes as the title song, aka Sh-Boom, as
well as Get a Job, Tears on My Pillow,
Fools Fall in Love, Runaround Sue,
Earth Angel, Only You and Unchained
Melody.
These are just some of the songs in Act 1
of this two-act, two-hour show. Highlights
of the second act include (Youve Got) The
Magic Touch, The Glory of Love and
Duke of Earl.
All of this takes place in the basement rec
room in the house where the unemployed

leader, lives with his mother.

Containing all the elements that
made the 2011 original boy and
his dolphin story a hit with audi-
ences and critics, Charles Martin
Smiths Dolphin Tale 2 is
another engaging lm inspired
by the real-life inhabitants of the
Clearwater Marine Aquarium.
Bringing together the original
cast, headed by Harry Connick
Jr., and, of course, Winter, the
remarkable dolphin outfitted
with a groundbreaking prosthet-
ic tail who put the CMA on the
map, the sequel again eschews
cloying dramatics in favor of a
straight-ahead, more docudrama
feel.
The nonetheless rousing
results should make a splash
with family audiences who were
responsible for Dolphin Tales

Chastain, McAvoy make
Them a worthy movie
By Jocelyn Noveck
NEW YORK All the lonely people.
Where do they all belong?
You wont hear that line in The
Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them
(more on that title in a moment), a highly
absorbing if unwieldy lm starring Jessica
Chastain and James McAvoy as a couple
struggling to cope apart and together
with tragedy.
In fact, you dont hear any of that famous
Beatles song. But it doesnt matter, because
youll probably be hearing it in your head.
Its also an apt 12-word summary of the
broader life issues the movie addresses.
Were all alone, essentially, no matter how
close we grow to others. Were born alone,
we die alone, and in between, we cope alone.
No one can cope for us.
Not that Eleanor, written and directed by
Ned Benson in his debut feature, is a total
downer of a movie. It cant be, with the
luminous Chastain and the appealing
McAvoy heading an almost ridiculously
high-quality cast. Eleanor is about messi-
ness, and risk in life and in love. But its
not all sad.
Aword about the format, for those coming
in cold: Eleanor was originally made as a
pair of movies, Her and Him, each a full-
length lm from the point of view of one
character, and made to be seen in either
order.
Then the Weinstein Company decided to
make Them, a more conventional
approach, edited from the other two (which
will both be released next month.) Some
who saw the rst versions at festivals have
objected that much has been lost. But the
rest of us need to judge Them on its own
merits. And its an engrossing lm.
Chastain plays Eleanor yes, last name
Rigby an anthropology student who
never nished her thesis. McAvoy plays
Conor, a young bar owner. We meet them as
theyre discovering the intoxication of rst
love. It is indeed intoxicating; Chastain and
McAvoy have a lovely chemistry.
Cut to an indeterminate time later. Eleanor
is pale and troubled. We see her take a des-
perate act; we dont know why.
The lm then follows both Eleanors route
to recovery (were being intentionally
vague here), and Conors efforts to track her
down. We learn that the two are married, and
have suffered a grave setback.
Either Conor or Eleanor is onscreen at all
times. Occasionally, theyre together.
These scenes are what we wait for: They
often crackle with conicted emotion, and,
in one case, deep, unforgettable heartbreak.
Chastains Eleanor is nervous, itty, on
edge, but every so often her smile breaks the
melancholy, and it boy, delivers. This
movie only cements Chastains status as
one of the most compelling actors of her
generation. Its hard to look away from her.
And why would you?
Perhaps this enhances McAvoys per-
formance, for Conor cant look away from
Eleanor, either. Hes possessed by love, but
also frustrated and mystied by it. Kudos to
the Scottish actor, first for his flawless
American accent, and second for nding a
way to so deftly command his own space
onscreen, alongside a ery presence like
Chastains .
Bensons script is solid, but the slam dunk
here is the cast hes assembled: Isabelle
Huppert as Eleanors restless French moth-
er, always with a glass of wine in her hand;
William Hurt as Eleanors dad, empathetic
and distant, too; the great Viola Davis as a
no-nonsense professor who helps get
Eleanor on her feet; an excellent Ciaran
Hinds, as Conors wry father; Bill Hader,
showing dramatic chops as Conors best
friend, and the terric theater actress Nina
Arianda, as a irtatious barmaid.
The cast alone is worth seeing the lm,
but Bensons also given us a meaty relation-
ship to ponder, and you could do worse than
start with this version. If this is the Spark
Notes, though, Ill denitely be on line for
the unabridged option.
I want to know where all these lonely peo-
ple came from.
The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby:
Them, a Weinstein Co. release, is rated R
by the Motion Picture Association of
America for language. Running time: 122
minutes. Three stars out of four.
By Alicia Rancilio
NEW YORK James McAvoy says that
when he showed up to work on The
Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby, he didnt
realize the lm would be broken up into two
perspectives a husband and a wifes ver-
sion of how tragedy affects the trajectory of
a relationship.
We started rehearsing and Ive got my
hard copy of the script, said McAvoy, seat-
ed with Jessica Chastain during a recent
interview. My hard copy was incredibly
thick, so I thought, Thats strange. They
must be using both sides of the paper. Then
we started and I thought, This things mas-
sive. . . . And then we started the read-
through and I realized ...
Perhaps your agent shouldve told you!
laughed Chastain.
Nobody really told me. ... I dont think
she knew, argued McAvoy.
She knew! Shes at the same agency as
(director) Ned (Benson)! cried Chastain,
still laughing.
So, there are various perspectives to a
story and thats the point of Eleanor
Rigby.
Theres Her, about Chastains character,
Eleanor Rigby, named after the Beatles
song; Him, about her husband, Conor;
and Them, a combination of both.
Them arrives in theaters Friday; Him
and Her will play in limited release begin-
ning in October.
Chastain was nominated for an Oscar for
her role in Zero Dark Thirty. McAvoys
lms include Atonement and The Last
King of Scotland.
Here are more excerpts from their recent
conversation with the Associated Press. The
answers have been edited for clarity and
brevity.
AP: Youve been promot i ng t hi s
project for a year. Whats i t l i ke t o
have i t nal l y released?
Chastai n: I rst read the script seven
years ago. So its been a part of my life for a
really long time. To me, it just feels normal.
I dont know what Im gonna do when we
stop talking about this movie.
McAv o y : I said last night, Did we just
make this movie so we can hang out every
now and again, like four times a year and
hang out in exotic places?
AP: The premi se for al l three l ms
i s very unique, but its not very
mainstream. Do you worry peopl e
wont be interested in the Him and
Her versions?
Chastai n: I think in this culture where
people are binge-watching on Game of
Thrones, where theyre watching 12-hour
movies, a three-hour lm isnt so long, but
they have the option. They can watch
Them, which is two hours, or they can
watch Him and Her, which is three hours.
McAv o y : If youre watching Him and
Her, youre taking part in something.
Chastai n: Exactly. Even the order you
decide to watch them in (changes the experi-
ence). Sometimes if you watch Conors ver-
sion rst, people kind of hate Eleanor. . . .
Even lming, its kind of like playing two
different versions of a character.

WEEKEND JOURNAL 21
By Judy Richter
The opening scene of California
Shakespeare Theaters production of A
Midsummer Nights Dream sets the tone
for the rest of Shakespeares play.
Its a down and dirty wrestling match
between Theseus (Daisuke Tsuji) and
Hippolyta (Erika Chong Shuch), the
Amazon queen he has conquered and intends
to marry.
This scene foreshadows even messier
goings-on when four young people go to
the forest outside Athens in pursuit of love.
Their encounters nd them losing much of
their clothing, especially on the women,
and slathering mud on each other.
Director Shana Cooper is responsible for
this staging, along with Shuch, who, in
addition to playing both Hippolyta and
Titania, serves as movement director.
The dirt comes from the set by Nina Ball.
It is strewn with a black ground cover simi-
lar to wood chips that sometimes stick to
the costumes.
As the audience arrives, large white plas-
tic sheeting looking like a shower curtain is
arrayed across the stage. Later it rises and
billows overhead like clouds.
The productions black, gray and white
color scheme is echoed in the costumes
until the nal scene. Thats when the six
tradesmen, often called the Rude
Mechanicals, stage the lamentable come-
dy of Pyramus and Thisbe for a wedding
celebration.
While this scene often comes as an after-
thought to the romantic resolutions that
precede it, its the hilarious highlight of
this production. And, as noted, it breaks the
color scheme with Flute (Craig Marker, his
left arm in a sling) playing Thisbe in a
white dress with red high heels, red wig and
red accessories. Snug (Danny Scheie) plays
the lion in a glittering head piece resem-
bling a mane.
Director Cooper seems so intent on phys-
icality that it could take a back seat to
Shakespeares words were it not for a rst-
rate cast. One woman in the restroom line at
intermission said that she enjoyed the play
most when she closed her eyes and just lis-
tened.
Two of the young lovers are played by
Dan Clegg as Lysander and Tristan
Cunningham as Hermia. However, Hermia
is supposed to marry Demetrius (Nicholas
Pelczar), who had previously wooed Helena
(Lauren English), who still loves him.
It took their retreat to the woods and some
botched but eventually successful interven-
tion by Oberon (Tsuji) and his assistant,
Puck (Scheie) to resolve everything.
This intervention also applied to Titania,
who had incited Oberons anger. The spell
that Oberon put on her made her fall in love
with Bottom (Margo Hall), one of the Rude
Mechanicals, who Puck had transformed
into an ass.
Capably completing the cast are James
Carpenter as Egeus and Starveling,
Catherine Castellanos as Snout and Liam
Vincent as Peter Quince.
It seems that Cooper, like some other
directors, wants to make Shakespeare
trendier. Its as if they dont trust the Bard or
the beauty and relevance of his words.
Luckily for the Cal Shakes audience, the
excellent actors know how to speak the
lines.
A Midsummer Nights Dream will con-
tinue in the outdoor Bruns Memorial
Amphitheater, 100 California Shakespeare

through Sept. 28. For tickets and informa-
tion call (510) 548-9666 or visit www.cal-

After a student nishes all his or her col-
lege applications, aside from searching for
additional scholarships and applying for
nancial aid through organizations like the
Free Application for Federal Student Aid,
there is little left to do but to hope for the
best.
Those who apply through early action
and early decision will usually nd out
whether they got accepted in mid-
December. The rest of us will have to wait
it out until mid-April. At this point in the
year, dreams have both been made and shat-
tered. For those who get accepted into their
dream schools (or any school that they
like, for that matter), the journey is over
until they leave for college in the fall. For
those who have been rejected or waitlisted,
the nightmare has just begun.
People rejected from any college have
the prerogative to appeal in the hope of
being given a second chance.
Unfortunately for them, colleges seldom
change their verdicts and the vast majority
of students who appeal are forced to accept
their rejection.
While being waitlisted creates a glimmer
of hope, it can also drive one mad. Being
so close to going to a college and knowing
that it can still not happen is crushing.
For those accepted into multiple col-
leges, the nal decision on where one will
attend must be made before May 1, which
is the selection deadline.
Seniors nationwide have a long year
ahead of them, but by remembering the
ultimate goal of the process they have
motivation to tolerate the tedious task of
applying to colleges.

and Wally (Jerry Lee). Needing a $50 entry
fee, they ask Big Stuff Auto to sponsor
them. The owner sends his daughter, Lois
(Sharon Rietkerk), and head mechanic,
Skip (Derek Keeling), to check them out
rst.
Skip soon becomes the groups fourth
member. He also tries to resist the mutual
attraction with Lois, whos also adored by
Eugene and Wally.
Naturally, complications arise, but just
as naturally, all turns out well.
Beans staging on the detailed set by
Michael Carnahan note the wringer
washer in an alcove teams nicely with
choreography by Lee Martino.
Bean also has selected an able cast, espe-
cially the three pals. Drummonds Denny is
just as persistent in his desire to do well in
the contest as he is in ignoring his mother
when she nags him to get a job.
Lees Wally is appealingly sweet, while
Homsley is hilarious as the inept, shy,
dweebish Eugene. All three are excellent
singers.
Keelings Skip comes across as a greaser
or Elvis wanna-be in his mannerisms and
singing, which is off-pitch in a few spots.
He plays guitar well.
Rietkerks Lois is tactful in her dealings
with Denny, Eugene and Wally and increas-
ingly impulsive in her attraction to Skip.
She sings well in her lower range, but her
upper notes become shrill.
Center REP and associates Bean and
Jonathan Reinis reportedly hope to hone

more appropriate for off-Broadway. Ahigh-
ly entertaining piece of uff with enough

DREAM
It has been several years since the films
young Sawyer Nelson (Nathan Gamble)
first bonded with the dolphin who had lost
her tail after becoming ensnared in a crab
trap, but the death of Panama, an elderly
dolphin who was both companion and sur-
rogate mother to Winter, has left the
younger dolphin despondent and uncooper-
ative.
The clock is ticking for CMAs Dr. Clay
Haskett (Connick, Jr.) to abide by USDA
regulations and find a female companion
suitable for pairing with Winter or see the
inspirational creature moved to another
aquatic facility.
Their best bet would seem to be Mandy, a
recent rescue who had been found beached
and severely sunburned, but keeping her at
the aquarium with Winter would mean not
letting her go back to her natural habitat.
That would go against Hasketts
rescue/rehabilitate/release mission.
Hope ultimately arrives in the form of a
dolphin calf stray (discovered, in real life,
on the night of the first films wrap party),
but theres no guarantee the infant will
bond with the tail-less Winter.
Even more so than last time out, Smith
focuses a great deal of attention on the
details the day-to-day minutiae of the
facilitys rescue and rehab work that ele-
vate what could have otherwise been
another well-intentioned but soggy fish-
out-of-water yarn.
Those specifics are efficiently navigated
by Connick, Jr., who blends a convincing
authority with tenderness, as does the rest
of the returning cast, including Cozi
Zuehlsdorff as Hasketts concerned daugh-
ter, Hazel, and, in reduced roles, Kris
Kristofferson as her grandfather, Ashley
Judd, as Sawyers mom and Morgan
Freeman as prosthetics whiz Dr. Cameron
McCarthy.
Echoing that unadorned, matter-of-fact
approach is the crisp cinematography and
graceful score by Dolphin Tale newcom-
ers, Daryn Okada and Rachel Portman,
respectively.
Dolphin Tale 2, a Warner Bros. release,
is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for some mild the-
matic elements. Running time: 107 min-
utes.

School District, which has 18 students
attending d.tech, will reimburse San Mateo
Union for costs associated with their stu-
dents if the student remains enrolled for the
entire year. The South San Francisco
Unied School District, which has 12 stu-
dents attending d.tech, is not interested in
reimbursing the district for its students
costs. So, the district could potentially
come out with a negative net income from
out-of-district students of $4,600 if it is
reimbursed $415,284 from out-of-district
students and from charges that total
$167,144 for rent charges of $1,300 per
out-of-district student, oversight fees,
usage fees and special education income,
according to d.tech. The $167,144 is not
ofcial though since the district and school
have not nalized a facilities agreement.
What can we do about South San
Francisco? said board Vice President Marc
Friedman. It really bothers me and is irre-
sponsible on their part. I want to put pres-
sure on them to pay.
McManus noted it should be a state
requirement that if a student goes to anoth-
er district, the money goes with him or her.
In terms of income, the school recently
received a $75,000 grant from Oracle. It
also has $1.109 million in general block
grants, $275,000 in federal school startup
funds and $26,531 in other state revenue.
Fluid numbers
At the same time, district numbers dont
match up with schools projections at this
point since many details have yet to be
finalized for facilities and out-of-district
student reimbursements. The district proj-
ects the schools out-of-district students
would cost it $419,824. The oor reim-
bursement the district would receive for
these students would be $108,000, while
the ceiling reimbursement would be
$258,000. Potentially, this would mean
the district would have a net positive rev-
enue of $5,320 if it got the maximum reim-
bursement, including the $167,144 in fees
the school would potentially pay, while the
district would be behind $144,680 with the
oor reimbursement.
Mills parent Steve Fong said he feared
that if the district went on record as supply-
ing more money to charter schools than is
legally required, taxpayers wont support
future bond measures.
Still, Trustee Stephen Rogers said
$150,000 is one tenth of 1 percent of our
budget, but ultimately decided to vote
against the grant.
The budget is uid; Im a supporter of the
charter school, he said Thursday evening.
I cant live with the inconsistency of the
numbers between the charter and the dis-
trict. Were having a difcult time with
some of our constituents about this deci-
sion. I spent hours this afternoon trying
to reconcile the numbers among the presen-
tations. I cant, in good conscience, give
that money. Its hard for me to give as
much as we want to see you (d.tech) suc-
ceed.
At the same time, those like board
President Linda Lees Dwyer said d.tech will
always cost the district money.
You cant run it at a prot, its a public
school, she said. Ive always thought
charters were for students who really just
needed to be pulled up and out and its not
that kind of school; its a GATE kind of pro-
gram. I want the dream to become a reality.
Educators are not CPAs (certied public
accountants) we need to make a little
allowance for that.
But Friedman said d.tech will help with
the districts enrollment growth, which is
projected to grow from 8,200 to 10,000 in
10 years.
If we take 400 students when it (d.tech)
scales, 1,800 only becomes 1,400 growth.
We wont have to spend millions more in
new buildings. We need d.tech to succeed.
The numbers were too uid. As I see it, the
district is in better nancial shape than last
time we talked about this. The $150,000 is
not going to dent our budget one way or
another.
Additionally, Trustee Peter Hanley wanted
to emphasize that the districts potential
$4.2 million decit has nothing to do with
the charter school, but voted against the
grant. The district is looking at $121.6
million in revenue and $125.8 million in
expenses.
The charter school is minuscule as part
of the deficit, he said. We ought to be
providing choices for families to go to
good schools. Im not comfortable vot-
ing to make an additional appropriation
to this school. We made a very good deci-
sion in authorizing d.tech.
Parent reaction
Meanwhile, d.tech parents like George
and Peggy Toye are frustrated people have
the perception that the charter is hurting
the district. George Toye notes that, as the
school is a startup, the district has to allow
for understanding and flexibility as the
budget is more uid than most because of
changing enrollment and donations.
Previously, there had been conict over a
perceived lack of transparency in placing
d.tech at Mills.
Im distressed that statements are being
made without research and reection, said
Peggy Toye. The perception d.tech is caus-
ing a decit is off base. The district is sav-
ing money. The co-location task force is
not fair representation. I assume the two
board members are neutral and a ratio of 10-
1 doesnt strike me as a fair representation
of d.tech.
The Mills High School Co-location Task
Force aimed to make things work between
Mills and d.tech this school year, while
working on solutions for where to put
d.tech during the 2015-16 school year. It
met for the rst time May 19. The task force
was made up of Mills parents, teachers,
Mills Principal Paul Belzer, Mills assistant
principals, d.tech Director Ken
Montgomery, Lees-Dwyer and Trustee
Robert Grifn, along with other district
officials. Mills parent Stacy Hershman
informed Toye that d.tech could have cho-
sen to have more representation on the task
force.
Ms. Toye, many of us are troubled by the
small representation (of d.tech) on the task
force, she said. Each party could bring
representatives. I would welcome more par-
ticipation; I think it would be a healthier
exchange if there was more representation.
Im disappointed the district allowed them
to take up residence with approved facili-
ties agreement. I continue to be confused
and somewhat troubled by how things are
happening. The Mills site where the
school is located has the lowest number of
students enrolled in d.tech this year. Its
worth answering these questions before
investing additional district resources.
Moving pieces
Meanwhile, Trustee Robert Grifn said at
the Thursday meeting he was a little disap-
pointed about the tone of the discussions in
the public comment.
I think were really trying to support
d.tech, he said. Some of the comments
Im not sure they were fact based. Ive never
seen numbers that moved around and been
so uid and what I do for a living is audit
government agencies and nonprofits. I
talked to Liz and Ken, and I was trying to
gure out what the heck was going on. I
know part of the problem is the state chose
this year to change the funding methodolo-
gy. We dont have enough concrete facts to
say were willing to put $150,000 out. I
would like to see more certain data.
Montgomery contended that the boards
decision was fair.
I really appreciate the board members
support, he said. They dont want to send
the money because the numbers are moving
around so much. Theres a lot of moving
pieces and we are looking forward to hav-
ing the opportunity to work things out.
The school was approved in November
2013 and is opening with just a freshmen
class, then adding on classes each subse-
quent year. The educational model of the
school emphasizes knowledge in action
and extreme personalization. During stu-
dents freshmen year, they will take math,
English, independent study physical educa-
tion, economics, world language and an
elective.

degree murder and the use of a rearm based on factors
like having behaved well while in custody, prosecutor
Morris Maya said.
The defendant appears to have taken steps even before
Miller v. Alabama to better himself and show that he had
chosen a different path, Maya said.
Defense attorney Chuck Smith said his client made a con-
scious decision to be a better man for his family and his
child.
He went off to prison with really no hope. He could have
decided that hes going to be the biggest guy in there but he
did just the opposite, jumping out of the gang and being
involved in every self-improvement program he could,
Smith said.
Maya said he respects Foiles opinion but still stands by
his opinion that Zarates Sept. 13, 2008, death was an exe-
cution fueled by gang mentality and gang culture.
Garcia will actually be considered for parole after 25 years
because of a California law pushed by state Sen. Leland Yee,
D-San Francisco/San Mateo, that allows juveniles sen-
tenced to life to receive earlier review.
Garcia killed Zarate at the Columbia Avenue party after
jumping into a ght between his friend and the victim to
prove he was the biggest, baddest member of the Fair
Oaks Park sect of the Norteo gang, former prosecutor Al
Giannini contended during the original trial.
The defense didnt dispute Garcia shot Zarate but argued it
was self-defense.
Garcia testified as the sole defense witness that he
believed Zarate had a gun because his hand was in his waist-
band. Zarate called out Heller Street, his alleged gang, and
Garcia reportedly countered with his affiliation before
shooting twice, then following and ring three more times.

We do about what four or ve differ-
ent organizations might do in some-
where like Redwood City or East Palo
Alto, Lobel said.
This Sunday, the community is
invited to visit Harley Farms, a world-
renowned goat and cheese farm in
Pescadero, for a meal and an opportu-
nity to meet Puentes supporters.
Its just a very unique way to see our
community. ... Its geared toward let-
ting people who come to the party to
learn about each other as well as the
organization. So we really see it as an
important community building activi-
ty as well, Lobel said. And you wont
nd fresher, better, hyper-local food
anywhere than at this dinner.
Lobel said shes thrilled to partner
with the award-winning Harley Farms
that rarely hosts nonprot events and
is one of the only goat dairies to make
its own cheese. Puente supporters will
get a behind-the-scenes look at how
the farm operates and taste all natural
meat from Markegard Family Grass-
Fed farm, Lobel said.
Puente has already exceeded its goal
and about 110 people have signed up
to share in the event and support the
diverse community, Lobel said.
Puentes geographical coverage area
makes up about 40 percent of the coun-
tys landmass, but just 1 percent of its
population, Lobel said.
Whats unique here is because its
such a small community, theres no
reason to create articial barriers just
because of their job or income, Lobel
said. This is a beautiful region, but
its also the agricultural center of our
county. So it draws people here for a
lot of different reasons. But because of
our isolation, we really have to be very
self-reliant.
Puente runs on an annual $2 million
budget, about half of which comes
from individual supporters, founda-
tions and faith institutions.
The other half comes from the coun-
ty for Puentes mental health and youth
leadership programs, Lobel said.
Puente hires nearly half of the small
Pescadero High Schools students over
the summer where they learn job
skills, educational opportunities and
take eld trips such as meeting legisla-
tors in Sacramento and or visiting
Googles headquarters, Lobel said.
Puente also offers disaster prepared-
ness courses, recently gave out 250
backpacks and school supplies and
hosts regular farmers markets, Lobel
said.
Set against the coastline and follow-
ing into the hills, Puentes coverage
area is about 160 miles and the organi-
zation tends to about a third of the
population, Lobel said. Those who
attend Sundays fundraiser will learn
about and support about the charitable
organizations efforts, Lobel said.
It is very unique and constantly
changing. So in our region we have the
poorest of the poor farm and nursery
workers, but we also have people from
Google and other large corporations
that hold land, Lobel said. So a lot of
the work that Puente does is [to] be a
bridge and unite these diverse commu-
nities.
Puentes first annual Fall Harvest
Fundraiser is Sunday, Sept. 14, from 4
p.m. to 6 p.m. at Harley Farms Goat
Dairy, 205 North St., Pescadero .
Tickets are $100 per person and can be
purchased through Puentes website or
Eventbrite at

buyer can be announced.
However, spokeswoman Elizabeth
Nikels said DCHS remains pleased
with the market response.
DCHS put the six private hospitals
on the market in January, setting off
months of wonder about what it could
mean for the local facilities. Health
and county ofcials fear the hospitals
closure would tax the overall Health
System and leave some patients with-
out adequate access to care. Seton is
also Daly Citys biggest employer.
Robert Issai, president and CEO of
DCHS, said it is committed to nding a
buyer who can meet obligations to
associates, employees, bondholders
and communities. An emphasis is on
nding a buyer who can keep the hos-
pitals operating without disrupting
current and retired employees obliga-
tions.
It is vitally important to take care
of employees both union and non-
union who could lose all or part of
their pensions if the right buyer is not
selected, Issai said in a prepared state-
ment.
DCHS anticipates choosing a buyer
this fall. Two rumored possibilities are
an investment group known for buy-
ing and selling off hospitals and Prime
Healthcare Services, which has been
subject of federal probes. But Issai
called any criticism prior to a sale
announcement premature and irre-
sponsible because a decision has yet
to be made.
Sale criteria, according to DCHS,
include the ability to invest in capital
improvements, continuing to provide
health care for the surrounding commu-
nities, experience running hospital
systems and delivering a fair price.
State Attorney General Kamala
Harris must still approve the nonprof-
its sale and some like Daly City
Mayor David Canepa and employee
unions are urging her to order any
buyer of Seton Medical Center to keep
the facility operating as a full-service
acute hospital with the same employ-
ees, labor agreements and pension
obligations.
The sale of Seton is not only impor-
tant to DCHS but also the residents of
northern San Mateo County, Canepa
said.
Once the sale happens, Canepa said
the communities are looking forward
to working with Harris during the
review process.
Last month, the Daly City Council
also adopted a resolution calling on
Harris to consider the impacts of Seton
and Seton Coastside.
Seton Coastside is a 116-bed skilled
nursing facility with the only 24-hour
emergency department along the 55-
mile coastal stretch between Daly City
and Santa Cruz. Seton in Daly City
provides a large chunk of the countys
indigent care which is what prompted
county ofcials to give nearly $19
million in Measure A sales tax funds
for seismic upgrades at the aging hos-
pital. DCHS and Seton donated more
than $1.5 million to the pro-Measure
A committee to get the half-cent tax
passed by voters.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) By experimenting with
an old concept, a new outlet will reveal itself. This
unusual opportunity will point you in a promising new
direction. Dont look back.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Collaboration will prove
inspiring. With a little extra effort, a creative idea will
come to fruition. Its time to put in motion what youve
been contemplating.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Take a rational
approach. Not everything will be as it appears, but that
doesnt mean you should give in too quickly to what
someone suggests. Wait for the details to fall into place.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Your natural
curiosity will lead to a detour in your plans. Dont be
alarmed if you fall behind. The experience will energize
you to nish on time with your own personal touch.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Reconsider a
relationship with someone who nds fault with your
every move. Your feelings are just as valid as anyone
elses, and its important that you feel appreciated.

troublesome situation to escalate. You can defuse
matters if you listen rather than argue. Practical
actions will bring solid solutions.

spending time doing something calming. Fresh air,
sunshine and physical activity will help, along with an

reputable source and not from someone hoping to

in a positive state of mind. If you feel pressured by
someone or something, explore solutions that could
