Contract negotiations have

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Teachers fed up with the bargaining process in Belmont
are planning a rally Thursday night before the school board
meeting to protest what they say is a lack of respect in a
now two-year ordeal.
The negotiations process has been going on since 2012
and teachers say theres been a lot of teaching staff
turnover because of the rising costs of health care and hous-
ing in this expensive community. The next bargaining
meeting is scheduled for Nov. 10. They met earlier in
October.

A forthcoming Sunrise Senior
Living facility may not be the only
assisted living facility with a new
memory care center entering the scene
in Burlingame and some worry there
isnt enough below-market rate hous-
ing on the site.
The Peninsula Health Care District is
proposing a 132-bed, five- and six-
story assisted living and memory care
space on land it owns next to
Peninsula Medical Center at 1600
Trousdale Drive, known as The
Trousdale. Since the district is a public
entity, the space on the northwest cor-
ner of Trousdale Drive and Magnolia
Avenue has to have a major public ben-
efit and some community members and
councilmembers fear it doesnt.
There cant be financial backing
from district without major public ben-
efit other than memory care housing,
said Vice Mayor Terry Nagel at a coun-
cil meeting Monday night. You could
report back at feasibility adding a
more modest level, better plan to
accommodate people who cant afford
above market rate units.
She also suggested coming back to
the council with examples of prices of
rooms.
Burlingame residents like Cynthia
Cornell expressed doubts there would
be any affordable rooms at the facility,
much to their concern.
The project could include a few
reduced rate units, but theres no way to

With just a few months left before the
longtime general manager of the San Mateo
County Harbor District is set to retire, its
Board of Commissioners are disagreeing on
how to fill his position.
Despite renewing his employment con-
tract with the district in June, General
Manager Peter Grenell announced he would
retire in late December after 17 years of
service.
With the deadline fast approaching, the
Board of Commissioners voted last
Wednesday to appoint Harbormaster Scott
Grindy as acting general manager to work
alongside Grenell until he retires, then
serve as interim general manager.
Some commissioners are happy to hire
Grindy permanently while Commissioner
Sabrina Brennan said the job deserves more
vetting.
Its absolutely the most critical position
at the district. This is the person who is at
the helm of the district. This is the person
the board communicates with, this is the
person who leads the administrative staff
and ultimately the harbormasters and harbor
patrol. Everything falls underneath the gen-
eral manager, Brennan said. Its very
important we take seriously filling it with
the best qualified person. We need some-
body who can really get in there and turn the
Harbor District at odds over new manager search

Mans ashes to be
scattered in fireworks display
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. A Missouri
funeral director is sending his father
out with a bang. His fathers ashes,
anyway.
Greenlawn Funeral Homes will hold
its first Firework Memorial program
on Saturday night, when fireworks
packed with James Carvers cremated
remains will be launched skyward as
part of his familys goodbye.
Carvers family is the first to try
Greenlawns new program. His son is
funeral director Jim Carver. He says
his father, who died in 2008, loved
watching fireworks and would appreci-
ate the unusual send off. The family
will follow the eight-minute fireworks
display with a cookout and memorial
celebration.
The Springfield News-Leader reports
that Greenlawns Fireworks
Memorials range from a $300
Sensational Celebration to the
Ultimate Goodbye, costing between
$8, 000 and $10, 000.
New Mexico mans typo
costs him thousands on bill
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M. A New
Mexico man says he made an error
while paying his electric bill that led
him to overpay by thousands of dol-
lars.
The Public Service Company of New
Mexico says it could take weeks to get
him his money back.
KOB-TV reports that Rio Rancho
attorney Ira Karmiol overpaid a $278
bill online earlier this month when he
inadvertently hit a fourth digit. He
says he paid $2, 787 because of the
typo he didnt catch.
When he noticed the error a few days
later, Karmiol says he contacted the
utility company, which said its policy
required three to four weeks to process
a refund request.
A utility spokesman says he cant
discuss problems with specific cus-
tomers, but that issues like these are
ordinarily resolved as quickly as pos-
sible.
Man admits to marijuana
grow in national forest
SACRAMENTO A Mexican
national had pleaded guilty to growing
thousands of marijuana plants in a
Northern California national forest.
The U. S. Attorneys office in
Sacramento said that 30-year-old
Mario Lopez-Parra pleaded guilty
Wednesday to growing 7, 589 marijua-
na plants in the Shasta Trinity
National Forest.
According to the U. S. Attorneys
office, investigators observed Lopez-
Parra at the site and arrested him on
June 24, 2014.
Lopez-Parra is scheduled to be sen-
tenced in January. He faces a maximum
statutory penalty of 40 years in prison
and a $5 million fine.
Huge gold nugget
going up for sale in California
SAN FRANCISCO One of the
biggest gold nuggets found in modern
times in Northern Californias his-
toric Gold Country is going up for
sale.
Weighing in at 6. 07 pounds, the
Butte Nugget is expected to carry a
price tag of $350, 000.
The nuggets finder asked dealer Don
Kagin to keep his name and the loca-
tion of the discovery secret.
Whats known is that a gold hunter
found it in July on public land in the
Butte County mountains. Prospecting
for gold is legal on most public lands
in the state.
David McCarthy, a coin and rare-
minerals expert, said that he took a
blindfolded ride to the site of the dis-
covery so he would be satisfied the
nugget was genuine.
The gold chunk will be unveiled
Thursday at the San Francisco Fall
Antiques Show.
Prospectors found many giant gold
nuggets in Californias 19th century
Gold Rush days. That includes a 54-
pound gold chunk found in Butte
County in 1859. Research shows it
has been decades since a report of any-
one discovering a rock of 6 pounds or
over in California.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
With the World Series hot on San Francisco
Giants fans minds, police are reminding
people to be wary about selling tickets
online after a man was robbed of two game
five tickets worth more than $1,000 in San
Mateo Tuesday.
A 54-year-old San Carlos resident posted
his two World Series tickets on Craigslist and
began communicating with an interested
buyer, San Mateo police Sgt. Rick Decker
said.
The victim agreed to meet with the suspect
around 12:30 p.m. in a CVS parking lot on El
Camino Real, Decker said.
The suspect asked to see the tickets and
after placing them down as if to grab money
snatched the valuable tickets and fled on
foot, Decker said.
The thief is described as a black man in his
mid-20s, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and weigh-
ing approximately 170 pounds, Decker said.
Police are actively investigating the case
and the victim was able to provide a cell-
phone number and email address he used to
contact the suspect, Decker said.
Needless to say, World Series tickets are a
hot commodity and Decker suggests sellers
use more reliable websites which most pro-
fessional sports leagues offer.
People need to be wary of how valuable
any World Series tickets are and putting them
up for sale on the Internet can make them a
target for some kind of fraud. In the end,
theyre better off using the other various
websites that allow for safe and fair interac-
tions between ticket holders and buyers
rather than face-to-face on Craigslist,
Decker said.

Vet sentenced for
attacking benefactor
A homeless 54-year-old veteran who
choked a Veterans Affairs hospital worker
over housecleaning after
she took him in was sen-
tenced Wednesday to five
years in prison.
Five years was the
maximum Timothy Page
Seith faced after pleading
no contest in September
to assault by means of
force, making criminal
threats and inflicting
great bodily injury. He was originally
charged with attempted murder in the Nov.
27, 2013, incident.
Prosecutors say the 55-year-old victim
invited Seith to stay with her for a few
weeks because she knew he was a transient.
On Nov. 27, 2013, he allegedly grew angry
over what he perceived to be her lack of
appreciation for his housework and choked
and threatened her. She broke free and tried
calling 911 but Seith knocked the phone
from her hand and began choking her again,
according to the District Attorneys Office.
She was reportedly able to free herself a
second time and run for help. South San
Francisco police arrested him nearby.
Seith faced up to 12 years in prison if con-
victed of the original charges.
At-risk man who
went missing found safe
An at-risk man who had been missing
from Daly City since last week was found
safe in San Francisco, police said
Wednesday.
Chris Martinez, 54, was reported missing
from a transitional home on Oct. 14, accord-
ing to Daly City police.
Martinez is new to the area and suffers
from a serious medical condition, police
said.
Police said he was found safe but did not
provide other details about where or when he
was found.
Trial date set for alleged
transit thief, DA wont retry other
Prosecutors will not retry one of two
longtime transit repairmen accused of steal-
ing more than $40, 000
Caltrain ticket machines
but acquitted on five
counts of embezzlement.
The jury deadlocked on
seven other charges
against Herbert David
Todd, 56, but prosecutors
opted against a second
trial on those counts
because of the way jurors
split in its decision,
Chief Deputy District
Attorney Karen Guidotti
said.
At the same hearing the
prosecutorial decision
was announced, co-defen-
dant Orvilla Taylor, 62,
was scheduled for his own
trial Dec. 1. Todd was
also ordered to appear in
court that day as a potential prosecution wit-
ness.
Prosecutors claim that the two San Mateo
County Transit District workers stole
money on 12 separate dates in 2010 from
broken ticket machines they brought in to
repair. They were accused of disassembling
the equipment, taking the money and return-
ing the machines to service. Caltrain dis-
covered money was missing during an inter-
nal audit and the defendants were reportedly
caught acting suspicious and irregular on
station surveillance videos, according to
the District Attorneys Office.
Taylor remains free from custody on
$150, 000 bail.
Maintenance worker
arrested for stealing
A maintenance worker at a senior living
apartment facility on Crystal Springs Road
in San Mateo was arrested Tuesday for six
separate burglaries inside the building in
which he used spare keys to access locked
apartments and steal jewelry, watches and
cash, according to San Mateo police.
The man, Eric Gamboa, 37, formerly of
San Francisco, was taken into custody after
senior building management alerted police
they had initiated an investigation into one
of their own workers. Gamboa is alleged to
have entered the rooms when the residents
were out, according to police.
The investigation is continuing and
police are working to secure and return all
personal property, according to police.
Three MS-13 gangmembers
sentenced to 27 years for murder
Three MS-13 gangmembers were sen-
tenced to 27 years in prison Wednesday
morning for the 2010 murder of a cook in
Daly City when they mistook him for a rival
gangmember, federal prosecutors said.
Davie Jimmy Mejia-Sensente, 31, Carlos
Mejia-Quintanilla, 25, and Luis Amilar-
Zanus, 35, pleaded guilty in July of the June
21, 2010, murder of Alexander Temaj-
Castanon after he got off a bus in Daly City.
The three defendants joined the La Mara
Salvatrucha, or MS-13, gang in El Salvador
more than a decade ago. The gang has mem-
bers all over North and Central America,
including in Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador
and the United States.
Federal investigators believe that MS-13
gangs based in the United States regularly
communicate with gang leaders in Central
America to coordinate drug and weapons
trafficking.
One rule of the gang is that members must
seek out and kill rival gangmembers,
including their principal rivals in the
Northern California area, the Norteos,
according to prosecutors.
It was because Temaj-Castanon, a cook at
Baby Blues BBQ in San Franciscos Bernal
Heights neighborhood, looked like a
Norteo member that the three killers tar-
geted him on a 14-Mission bus to Daly City
as he was riding home from work.
The three men followed Temaj-Castanon
off the bus just after midnight near Mission
Street and San Jose Avenue and, after wait-
ing until no one was around, Mejia-
Quintanilla took a gun from Mejia-
Sensentes backpack and shot Temaj-
Castanon, knocking him to the ground.
Mejia-Sensente took the gun and shot him
again, prosecutors said. He was pronounced
dead at the scene.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A federal grand jury Wednesday indicted
five real estate investors for allegedly rig-
ging bids at public auctions of foreclosed
properties outside the San Mateo County
courthouse in Redwood City.
The eight-count indictment against
Joseph Giraudo, Raymond Grinsell, Kevin
Cullinane, James Appenrodt and Abraham
Farag alleged that each agreed to stop bid-
ding or not bid at all on properties in San
Mateo County in return for payoffs. The
men face charges of mail fraud, too, in the
plan to acquire dozens of selected San
Mateo County properties, according to the
federal indictment.
Giraudo, Grinsell and Appenrodt were
also charged with bid rigging and mail fraud
for similar alleged schemes in San
Francisco County.
Federal prosecutors say, between August
2008 and January 2011, the five men con-
spired to rig bids at the county auctions,
paid others and accepted payoffs and, in the
process, defrauded mortgage holders, other
debt holders and sometimes the defaulting
homeowners.
When property is auctioned, the proceeds
pay off the mortgage and debt with any
remaining money going to the home
owner. Squelching competitive bids limits
how much money is available for both.
The defendants alleged plan kept win-
ning bids low which prosecutors say dam-
ages the real estate market and defrauds all
who expect a level investment playing
field.
These defendants corrupted the public
foreclosure auctions in San Mateo and San
Francisco counties and they did so to line
their pockets with money that rightfully
belonged to mortgage holders and others,
Brent Snyder, deputy assistant attorney for
the antitrust divisions criminal enforce-
ment program, said in an announcement of
the indictments.
The five defendants face up to a decade in
federal prison and a $1 million fine for vio-
lating the antitrust law known as the
Sherman Act and up to 30 years and a simi-
lar fine for each count of conspiring to
commit mail fraud. The maximum fine for
Sherman Act charges may also be increased
to double the gain derived from the crime or
twice the loss suffered by the victim if
either is greater than $1 million.
To date, 47 individuals pleaded or agreed
to plead guilty to similar investment fraud
as part of the Department of Justices ongo-
ing investigation into public real estate
foreclosure auctions in Northern
California.
David J. Johnson, FBI special agent in
charge of the San Francisco field office,
said the agency is committed to continue
ferreting out other alleged fraudsters cor-
rupting the auction process.
Anyone with information about bid rig-
ging or fraud related to public real estate
foreclosure auctions should contact the
Antitrust Divisions San Francisco Office at
(415) 934-5300 or the FBI tip line at (415)
553-7400.

SACRAMENTO Bob Pack wanted to go
after the HMO doctors for recklessly pre-
scribing painkillers to a drug-abusing
nanny who ran over his 10-year-old son and
7-year-old daughter as they were heading for
ice cream one early fall evening in 2003.
But under Californias 1970s-era medical
malpractice law there was a $250, 000 cap
on pain and suffering. Instead of pursuing a
case because of the cap, he settled so he
could care for his wife, who lost the twins
she was carrying in the crash.
It would have been too difficult to tackle
a private trial, he said.
A November ballot initiative named after
his children Troy and Alana seeks to
raise the cap to $1. 1 million. The campaign
has prompted a ferocious fight between doc-
tors and attorneys over the rights of injured
patients with roughly $66 million raised so
far in one of the states more expensive bal-
lot initiatives.
The campaign, with spending totals
rivalling some of the most competitive
U. S. Senate races this year, underscores the
effect that reforms passed in California
have on the rest of the nation. The 1975
malpractice law was the first in the nation,
paved the way for roughly 30 states to
adopt some limits on medical malpractice
payouts and used as a template for national
proposals.
Nearly $57 million has been raised by
Proposition 46 opponents, while backers
have raised at least $9. 1 million, as of
Wednesday.
Trial lawyers and patient advocates say
the malpractice law is long past due for an
update. They say victims of medical negli-
gence have trouble finding lawyers willing
to take their cases and those who do discov-
er that California has one of the nations
most restrictive payouts.
Doctors, hospitals and medical liability
insurers say raising the cap would drive up
medical costs, force doctors out of state and
reduce access to medical care. They say it
would add uncertainty to the health care sys-
tem.
Gov. Jerry Brown signed the bill that cre-
ated the cap during his first term in office. It
was a time of skyrocketing malpractice
insurance costs that forced physicians to
retire early or leave California.
The law made California rates among the
lowest in the nation today. According to the
California Medical Association, the aver-
age doctor in the state paid $26, 511 last
year in premiums compared to $99, 290 in
Connecticut and $137, 412 in New York,
two states without caps.
Under Proposition 46, the new limit
would raise the cap to amount that it would
have been if kept pace with inflation. The
measure also requires doctors to submit to
random drug and alcohol tests and require
doctors to check a statewide database before
prescribing drugs in an attempt to curb pill
shopping.

WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama expressed confidence Wednesday
about the ability to contain Ebola in the
U. S. , taking special note of the ongoing
recovery of two nurses who contracted the
disease and of others who were declared
Ebola free after being exposed to the deadly
virus.
Were cautiously optimistic, he
declared.
He also gave assurances that hospitals
across the country were becoming better
prepared to deal with Ebola.
Obama spoke after meeting with his Ebola
response team, including point man Ron
Klain, newly named to coordinate public
health efforts at home and assistance to
West Africa where Ebola has killed more
than 4, 800 people.
The public health infrastructure and sys-
tems that we are now putting in place across
the board around the country should give the
American people confidence that were
going to be in a position to deal with any
additional cases of Ebola that might crop up
without it turning into an outbreak, Obama
said.
The presidents more upbeat tone was in
sharp contrast to last week when he called
for a more aggressive response by his
administration upon learning that one of
two nurses diagnosed with Ebola had earlier
traveled on a commercial airliner from
Dallas to Cleveland and back.
Obama noted Wednesday that numerous
relatives of Thomas Eric Duncan, the only
person to die of Ebola in the U. S. , have
been released from quarantine, and that two
Dallas nurses infected with the virus as a
result of treating the Liberian man seem to
be doing better.
Later Wednesday, the family of one of the
nurses said doctors no longer could detect
the virus in her body.
Obama also spoke by telephone with
some of the nurses colleagues at Texas
Health Presbyterian Hospital.
In the Oval Office, Obama added that a dec-
laration by the World Health Organization
that Nigeria is now Ebola-free was a hopeful
sign, as he sought to further allay the
American publics fears over a disease that
has claimed thousands of lives far from U. S.
shores.
It gives you some sense that when it is
caught early and where the public health
infrastructure operates effectively, this out-
break can be stopped, he said.
Obama said that in addition to $1 billion
from the United States, the international
community had committed another $1 bil-
lion to begin building isolation units in
Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. The U. S.
has pledged to send up to 4, 000 troops to
build treatment units and to train health care
workers in the region. Obama said that as of
now, the U. S. has 100 workers from the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
and 500 military personnel in West Africa.
Blackwater guards
found guilty in Iraq shootings
WASHINGTON Four former Blackwater
security guards were convicted Wednesday in
the 2007 shootings of more than 30 Iraqis in
Baghdad, an incident that inflamed anti-
American sentiment around the globe and
was denounced by critics as an illustration of
a war gone horribly wrong.
The men claimed self-defense, but federal
prosecutors argued that they had shown a
grave indifference to the carnage their
actions would cause. All four were ordered
immediately to jail.
Their lawyers are promising to file
appeals. The judge did not immediately set a
sentencing date.
The federal jury found Nicholas Slatten
guilty of first-degree murder, the most serious
charge in a multi-count indictment. The three
other guards Paul Slough, Evan Liberty
and Dustin Heard were found guilty of mul-
tiple counts of voluntary manslaughter,
attempted manslaughter and gun violations.
The outcome after a summer-long trial and
weeks of jury deliberation appeared to stun
the defense.
Student back in U.S.
after being stuck in Mexico
SAN DIEGO A Mexico-born Harvard
University student has returned to the United
States after being stuck for months in his
native country when he crossed the border
without permission.
The U. S. Citizenship and Immigration
Service initially declared that Dario Guerrero
Meneses effectively deported himself when
he crossed the border with his mother as she
sought alternative cancer treatments. She
died in August.
Guerrero, 21, who was brought into the
U.S. illegally at age 2, crossed through the
San Ysidro Port of Entry on Tuesday on his
way to Long Beach, California, to reunite
with his father and two siblings.
I feel very fortunate for all the help Ive
received from all the people who supported
me, Guerrero told the Associated Press.
He had been granted a visa in Tijuana on
Monday.
Guerrero plans to return to Harvard next
year.
Study looks at lane
splitting in California
SACRAMENTO ACalifornia study of a
driving maneuver in which motorcyclists
pass stalled traffic by going between lanes
finds the practice poses no more danger than
riding a motorcycle in general.
If the motorcyclist, however, is speeding
or riding more than 10 mph faster than traf-
fic, the risk goes up.
The study by the University of California,
Berkeley was commissioned by the
California Highway Patrol and the states
Office of Traffic Safety.
It also found lane splitters are less likely to
be rear-ended by car drivers but are more like-
ly to rear-end other vehicles.
Lane splitting is legal in California,
though car and truck drivers often complain it
is dangerous.

NATION/WORLD 8

OTTAWA, Ontario Agunman with a scarf
over his face killed a soldier standing guard at
Canadas war memorial Wednesday, then
stormed Parliament in an attack that rocked
the building with the boom of gunfire and
forced lawmakers to barricade themselves in
meeting rooms. The gunman was shot to
death by the ceremonial sergeant-at-arms.
Investigators offered little information
about the gunman, identified as 32-year-old
ex-convict Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, but Prime
Minister Stephen Harper called the rampage
the second deadly terrorist attack on
Canadian soil in three days.
This weeks events are a grim reminder
that Canada is not immune to the types of ter-
rorist attacks we have seen elsewhere,
Harper said.
He added: We will not be intimidated.
Canada will never be intimidated.
Canada was already on alert at the time of
the shooting rampage because of a deadly
hit-and-run assault Monday against two
Canadian soldiers by a man Harper described
as an ISIL-inspired terrorist. ISIL is also
known as Islamic State.
Witnesses said the soldier posted at the
National War Memorial, identified as Cpl.
Nathan Cirillo, was gunned down at point-
blank range just before 10 a.m. by a man car-
rying a rifle and dressed all in black, his face
half-covered.
The gunman appeared to raise his arms in
triumph, then entered Parliament, a few hun-
dred yards away, where dozens of shots soon
rang out, according to witnesses.
People fled the complex by scrambling
down scaffolding erected for renovations,
while others took cover inside and barricaded
doors with chairs as police with rifles and
body armor took up positions outside and
cordoned off the normally bustling streets
around Parliament.
On Twitter, Canadas justice minister and
other government officials credited 58-year-
old sergeant-at-arms Kevin Vickers with
shooting the attacker just outside the MPs
caucus rooms. Vickers serves a largely cere-
monial role at the House of Commons, carry-
ing a scepter and wearing rich green robes,
white gloves and a tall imperial hat.
At least three people were treated for minor
injuries.
In Washington, President Barack Obama
condemned the shootings as outrageous
and said: We have to remain vigilant. The
U.S. Embassy in Ottawa was locked down as
a precaution, and security was tightened at
the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at
Arlington National Cemetery just outside
Washington.

IRBIL, Iraq Lawmakers in Iraqs largely
autonomous Kurdish region Wednesday
authorized peshmerga forces to go to neigh-
boring Syria and help fellow Kurds combat
Islamic State militants in the key border
town of Kobani, providing much-needed
boots on the ground.
The unprecedented deployment will
almost certainly depend on the support of
Turkey, whose president criticized a U. S.
airdrop of arms to Kurdish fighters after
some of the weapons wound up in the hands
of the extremists.
Turkey, which has riled Kurdish leaders
and frustrated Washington by refusing to
allow fighters or weapons into Kobani, said
this week it would help Iraqi Kurdish fight-
ers cross into Syria to help their brethren
against the militants, who also are being
attacked by a U. S. -led campaign of
airstrikes.
But it is not clear how many fighters will
be allowed in or whether they will be
allowed to carry enough weapons to make
an impact.
The Kurds of Syria and Iraq have become a
major focal point in the war against the
Islamic State group, with Kurdish popula-
tions in both countries coming under sig-
nificant threat by the militants lightning
advance.
Lt. Gen. Frederick Hodges, the outgoing
commander of NATOs Land Command in
Izmir, Turkey, said the Turks have agreed to
open up a land bridge of sorts so that the
peshmerga can get into Kobani to help with
the fighting there.
It seems to me that between the United
States, Turkey and other countries, they are
figuring out what is permissible to make
sure that ISIL is not successful and that it is
something that Turkey can live with, he
added, using an acronym for the group.
Anwar Muslim, a Kobani-based senior
Kurdish official, praised the parliaments
decision, saying all help is welcome. He
said there seemed to be a solidifying inter-
national push to help Kobani combat the
militants.
The next days will show the seriousness
of the Turks, he said.
Iraqi Kurdish lawmakers OK fighters for Syria
Teens travel renews
concerns about terror appeal
DENVER Three teenage girls being
investigated for trying to join Islamic State
forces in Syria were victims of an online
predator who encouraged them, a school
official said Wednesday, as U. S. officials
tried to determine how they made it to
Europe without anyone knowing and
whether terrorists appeal is deepening
among vulnerable youth.
The Denver-area girls two sisters ages
17 and 15, and their 16-year-old friend
were detained at the airport in Frankfurt,
Germany, and sent home over the weekend.
They were interviewed by the FBI and
returned to their parents in suburban Aurora.
Those in the tight-knit east African commu-
nity where they live said the sisters are of
Somali descent and their friend is of
Sudanese descent.
The episode posed vexing questions for
U. S. officials, including about the use of
social media by terror groups to recruit peo-
ple inside the United States and what can be
done about it.
Social media has played a very signifi-
cant role in the recruitment of young peo-
ple, said FBI spokesman Kyle Loven in
Minneapolis, home to the largest Somali
community in the U. S. Authorities there
have been concerned about terror recruiting
of the young for years.
Palestinian kills baby
at Jerusalem station
JERUSALEM A Palestinian motorist
with a history of anti-Israel violence
slammed his car into a crowded train station
in Jerusalem on Wednesday, killing a three-
month-old baby girl and wounding eight
people in what police called a terror attack.
The girl and her parents, who were injured
in the attack, were U. S. citizens, according
to Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat.
The violence came after months of ten-
sions between Jews and Palestinians in east
Jerusalem the section of the city the
Palestinians demand as their future capital.
The area has experienced unrest and near-
daily attacks on the citys light rail by
Palestinian youths since a wave of violence
over the summer, capped by a 50-day war
between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza.

OPINION 9
Health care grant funding
Editor,
In response to your recent article
regarding candidates for the Sequoia
Health Care District Board and allo-
cation of funds for health care
grants; all funds allocated to grants
within the district are based on uti-
lization of residents who actually
live in the district (Five seek three
Sequoia Healthcare District seats in
the Oct. 21 edition of the Daily
Journal).
The district closely evaluates the
grant applications and carefully cal-
culates the cost per resident.
Programs include dental care, food
security, mental health, primary and
preventative care, hospice and post
hospitalization case management.
District-directed programs include
the Healthy Schools Program which
provides psychological/family coun-
seling, health and nutritional educa-
tion, school nurses and physical edu-
cation into the struggling school
districts. Our Heart Safe program
provides and maintains cardiac defib-
rillators and compression devices
while already saving the lives of res-
idents. A Chronic Disease
Management Program focuses on
education and prevention. Next year,
we will begin cardiac screening for
high school students to detect abnor-
malities related to sudden cardiac
arrest.
As for the nursing program, we
should keep in mind the current nurs-
ing population is rapidly aging with
a trajectory toward a nursing short-
age, which will coincide with the
increasing health care needs of the
boomer generation. The time to put
money in nursing is now instead of
waiting until patients have to have
surgery canceled, because a nurse is
not available.
All residents within the health care
district benefit by one or more serv-
ices provided at a time when access
to health care is challenging. Many
programs are preventative in nature;
therefore, saving tax dollars spent
on acute health problems. Arthur
Faro and Dr. Jerry Shefren are two
candidates with the experience
required for a successful and cost effi-
cient health care district.

Editor,
How lucky for the Burlingame City
Council to add the talents of John

Congratulations Burlingame and
good luck John.

T
he California Supreme Court
declined last week to hear a
case concerning the nancing
of Californias planned high-speed
rail system.
In so doing, the justices let stand a
state appellate court decision in July
directing Sacramento Superior Court
judge Michael Kenny to vacate a deci-
sion he made in November 2013
blocking the state from selling $8. 6
billion in bonds to start construction
on the biggest public works project
in California history.
The state High-Speed Rail authority
was almost palpably relieved by the
state high courts nonintervention.
This decision, said Jeff Morales,
the rail authoritys CEO, removes the
cloud regarding allegations that we
werent doing things properly.
Well, not exactly.
The overarching legal issue con-
cerning the planned high-speed rail
system is whether the project, as
envisioned today by the rail authori-
ty, complies with the requirements of
Proposition 1A, the 2008 ballot
measure that authorized nearly $10
billion in bonds to help nance the
bullet train.
The state appellate court did not
address that issue in its July decision,
stating that the scope of our decision
is narrow.
And, indeed, the lower courts deci-
sion to overturn Judge Kenny was
based, it said, on such time-hon-
ored, albeit esoteric, principles of
statutory construction, separation of
powers, and the availability of
extraordinary writ relief.
In his November 2013 decision,
Judge Kenny ruled properly we
continue to believe that the rail
authoritys so-called preliminary
funding plan for the $68 billion bul-
let train failed to identify the sources
of all funds to be invested in the cor-
ridor or usable segment thereof, as
required by Proposition 1A.
The appellate court decided that
Judge Kenny substituted his judgment
for that of the Legislature, which had
determined that the preliminary fund-
ing plan submitted by the rail authori-
ty was compliant with Proposition
1A, and which appropriated bonds on
that basis.
That, the appellate court suggested
wrongly so, we maintain con-
stituted a violation of the separation-
of-powers doctrine.
That the state Supreme Court let
stand the appellate court ruling in no
way means that the legal cloud, of
which Mr. Morales spoke, overhang-
ing the states planned high-speed rail
system has lifted for good.
Indeed, the appellate court itself
declared, Substantial legal questions
loom in the trial court as to whether
the high-speed rail project the
California High-Speed Rail Authority
seeks to build is the project approved
by voters in 2008.
Those questions were not before the
state appellate court, it noted in its
July decision, but they will be front
and center beginning early next year
when a lawsuit goes to trial in
Sacramento asserting that the rail
authoritys business plan violates
four Proposition 1A requirements.
It will not carry passengers from
Los Angeles to San Francisco in 2
hours, 40 minutes, as required under
the law. It adopts a so-called blended
system in which high-speed trains
would share track with regular com-
muter trains, which will slow down
high-speed trains.
The planned 800-mile system will
require taxpayer subsidies, which is
unlawful under by Proposition 1A.
And its highly improbable that the
system will be nancially, not to
mention physically, viable.
So while the signal light for the
states planned high-speed rail system
bullet train is no longer red, in the
wake of the state Supreme Courts
non-action last week, its still a long
way from green.
Light not yet green for bullet train
Meth or math
W
hats worse: math or meth? For one Florida
mom, that answer is easy. After Toys R Us
began stocking its shelves with action gures
from the popular AMC show Breaking Bad complete
with all the necessary drug dealing accouterments like
methamphetamine, cash and a hazmat suit a woman
named Susan Schrivjer began a Change. org petition push-
ing the store to rethink the idea. Seems she and the more
than 9, 000 people who signed the petition dont think a
meth-cooking high school science teacher and his busi-
ness partner in crime are good role models for the children.
And those bags of meth? Maybe not something we should
be encouraging the kiddies curiosity about. Mommy,
whats crystal and can I try some? isnt what we really want
to hear out of the mouths of
babes.
Didnt take long but Toys R
Us caved and announced the
gures were getting the boot.
Attention eBay: get ready for
high markups on the col-
lectibles that made it into cus-
tomers hands. And other
retailers that still sell the
goods like Barnes & Noble,
get ready for some extra sales.
So now the children are safe
from the exploits of a very
adult show that maybe they
shouldnt really know about or watch anyway. They are free
to focus on the super exploitative wardrobes and freaky
makeup of any residual Bratz dolls laying around or the
Monster High characters awaiting a Christmas purchase.
Dont forget the male dolls and gures with toy guns,
either. Sure, meth isnt a particularly healthy accessory but
rearms cant be sold as clean, wholesome fun, either.
Granted, Toys R Us used to claim to be a place where a kid
could be a kid. But times have changed and the place where
kids are kids is also trying to compete in very adult mar-
kets with electronics, video games and yes, action gures
for those no longer in early childhood.
Before jumping on the bandwagon of the latest Tipper
Gore prodigy, though, lets take a second and think about
the good qualities a character like Walter White might
imbue to the children who again I might mention probably
ought not to be watching the show anyway (hint, hint
irate parents) or be allowed to purchase or receive the con-
troversial adult collectible action gure (double hint,
hint).
White is a high school teacher. And a drug manufacturer.
Two jobs look at the work ethic! He tries to keep the
drama of his secondary life away from his wife and child. A
family man! He teaches chemistry and uses those same
skills in his less acceptable line of work. If that doesnt
encourage kids to knuckle down in the hard sciences, hard
to know what might. He wears the proper protective gear
while cooking up meth. Hes deliberate in his methods,
not to mention prepared for an American wave of Ebola.
Of course, parents have an alternative all wrapped up in
pink and smiles although in some circles just as aggravat-
ing: Barbie. In 1990, there was briey a cross-dressing
Ken but that turned out to be a hoax in, ironically, Florida.
Back to Barbie. In 1992, Mattel released Teen Talk
Barbie which uttered the infamous phrase Math class is
tough! The world picked up its proverbial pitchforks,
demanding apologies and ultimately that Mattel stop man-
ufacturing dolls with that particular computer chip. The
sentiment shortchanged girls by reinforcing stereotypes,
detractors cried. Mattel complied and even offered replace-
ments for purchasers who could not handle the offensive
version. Barbie was then free to march her plastic arched
feet on to exciting careers in teaching and aeronautics and
all sorts of elds that required math and science just like
Walter White minus the drug dealing and the murder and the
RV. Just think if Barbie were to take a cue from Walter; the
RV would be a delicious shade of bubble gum and the haz-
mat suit might have the slightest bit of lace around the
sleeves.
Kidding aside, Barbie and Walter White couldnt be more
different but they both managed to cook up similar levels
of angst and anger in certain circles. But while those buy-
ing Teen Talk Barbie unwittingly picked up a doll that
might be problematic for susceptible youth, all of the
Walter White bumps and bruises are out for public viewing.
Any adult purchasing such a doll for a child under the rec-
ommended age of 15 needs to take a look at themselves.
And maybe if a younger child eyeballs the dolls and asks
what its about that is a good opportunity for a chat about
narcotics and television.
Neither Walt nor Barb are frankly ideal models but the
responsibility for their impressions arent solely on the
manufacturers and retailers. Who then? Well, you do the
meth er, math.

Poors 500 index, as investors shaken
by recent swings in the market sold
some of their holdings.
A slide in the price of oil dragged
down energy stocks. Eight of the 10
industry groups in the S&P 500 fell,
led by a 1. 7 percent drop in energy.
Small-company stocks also fell as
traders unloaded riskier assets.
The market is still nervous, said
John Manley, chief equity strategist at
Wells Fargo Funds Management. The
extreme volatility of the last few
weeks is on our minds.
The drop in the S&P 500 came a day
after the indexs biggest gain this
year.
Stocks were higher most of the
morning on hopes that the European
Central Bank would add to its stimulus
program as well as news that U. S.
inflation remained low last month. A
batch of good earnings reports from
U. S. companies also helped.
Those gains vanished in the after-
noon as the price of crude oil began to
drop. Traders have worried about a
steady decline in oil as global demand
for energy recedes.
The market is taking a bit of
breather, shrugged TD Ameritrade
Chief Strategist JJ Kinahan. People
are reassessing what their expecta-
tions should be for the rest of the earn-
ings season.
The S&P 500 dropped 14. 17 points,
or 0. 7 percent, to 1, 927. 11. The Dow
Jones industrial average fell 153. 49
points, or 0. 9 percent, to 16, 461. 32.
The Nasdaq composite fell 36. 63
points, or 0. 8 percent, to 4, 382. 85.
The losses were mitigated by a batch
of generally positive third-quarter
earnings reports, which suggested that
corporate profits were still growing at
a healthy clip. Yahoo jumped 5 percent
after reporting blowout earnings.
The closely watched Vix index, a
gauge of expected swings in stock
prices, surged nearly two points to 18.
That is above the recent average of 15,
but far below last weeks high of 30.
TD Ameritrades Kinahan suggested
investors may have pushed up the Vix
in reaction to news of a gunman
killing a soldier outside a war memori-
al in Canada earlier in the day. But he
was doubtful the shooting impacted
the overall market much.
A big question hanging over stocks
is just how good can corporate earn-
ings get as Europe inches closer to
recession and China slows.
So far this earnings season,
investors have been encouraged. With
about a fifth of S&P 500 companies
out with their results and outlooks,
stocks look reasonably priced as
measured by expectations of future
earnings. The index is trading at 15. 8
times expected earnings per share over
the next 12 months, according to S&P
Capital IQ, a research firm. That is not
much lower meaning cheaper than
the average of 16. 4 since 2001.
But other measures, comparing
stock prices to earnings over the past
10 years, for instance, suggest the
market may be overvalued.
Investors will get a clearer view on
Thursday, a big day for earnings across
industries. Those reporting include
Microsoft, 3M, Amazon. com,
Caterpillar and United Continental.
The government reported that con-
sumer prices rose 1. 7 percent in the
year to date through September, below
the 2 percent target set by the Federal
Reserve. Low inflation has allowed the
central bank to keep rates at record
lows to help the economy by encour-
aging lending and hiring.
Frank Fantozzi, CEO of money man-
agement firm Planned Financial
Services, says low inflation is another
reason to resist selling when stocks
are dropping, like they did Wednesday.
Energy prices are pretty low and
wages have stayed pretty flat. You
look at that, and GDP growing pretty
healthily, and there are too many good
things, Fantozzi said.
Slide in energy sector drags market lower

DALLAS Facing an even bigger moun-
tain of packages this holiday season, FedEx
and UPS are hiring more workers to avoid
the delays that frustrated shoppers and gift-
recipients a year ago.
Last December, the delivery giants were
caught off-guard by bad weather and a surge
in last-minute online shopping. An estimat-
ed 2 million packages were late at
Christmas.
On Wednesday, FedEx Corp. said it
expects deliveries between Thanksgiving
and Christmas Eve to rise 8. 8 percent over
last year, to 290 million shipments. Volume
is expected to surge on each of the first three
Mondays in December, with FedEx predict-
ing a peak of 22. 6 million shipments on
Monday, Dec. 15.
The delivery companies and Internet
retailers are benefiting from a strengthen-
ing economy and optimism about consumer
spending. At the same time, theyre dealing
with consumers who increasingly enjoy the
ease of shopping on computers and mobile
devices but expect the goods to show up
almost as quickly as if they had shopped at a
store. That expectation is often fed by
online retailers, who hold out the promise
of free delivery until right before
Christmas.
About 1. 3 million express packages han-
dled by UPS and 618, 000 carried by FedEx
failed to get delivered on time last
Christmas Eve, according to ShipMatrix
Inc. , which makes software for shipment
tracking. The firms president, Satish
Jindel, said UPS and FedEx were at fault only
30 percent of the time.
In most cases, retailers promised guaran-
teed express delivery but tried to save
money and didnt pay the delivery compa-
nies for that speedier service, Jindel said.
The merchants face tough competition for
consumers who base purchases first on
price, and second on free shipping, and the
faster the better.
Every single year the percentage of
retailers offering free shipping goes up,
said Vicki Cantrell, senior vice president at
the National Retail Federation. The con-
sumer expects it. The retailer may or may
not be able to afford it.
Target Corp. has started offering free hol-
iday shipping for any item on its website, a
first for the retailer as it tries to compete
better against online rivals such as
Amazon. com Inc.
BofA to refund Apple
Pay customers charged twice
SAN JOSE Bank of America apologized
Wednesday for a double-billing glitch that
affected some customers who made purchas-
es with Apple Pay, the new mobile pay-
ments service that Apple launched this
week.
Some customers have reported they were
charged twice for the same purchase when
they used Bank of America debit cards with
Apple Pay.
The glitch involved about 1, 000 transac-
tions, and all duplicate charges will be
refunded, said Bank of America spokes-
woman Tara Burke.
Apple said a very small number of Apple
Pay users were affected. The Cupertino,
California-based computer maker has not
disclosed how many customers have used
Apple Pay since it became available on
Monday. Chief Financial Officer Luca
Maestri told the Associated Press earlier this
week that a lot of people had signed up.
Apple has touted the privacy and security
features of the new service, saying it does
not store credit card account numbers or pur-
chase information. Instead, the company
says it acts as a conduit for transmitting
encrypted payment information to banks or
card processors, who then send the neces-
sary authorizations to merchants.
Government ups air bag
warning to 7.8M vehicles
DETROIT The U. S. government is now
urging owners of nearly 8 million cars and
trucks to have the air bags repaired because
of potential danger to drivers and passen-
gers. But the effort is being complicated by
confusing information and a malfunction-
ing website.
The governments auto safety agency says
that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can
rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out
when the bags are deployed. The inflators
are made by Japanese parts supplier Takata
Corp.
Safety advocates say at least four people
have died from the problem, which they
claim could affect more than 20 million cars
nationwide. On Wednesday, the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
added 3. 1 million vehicles to an initial
warning covering 4. 7 million cars and
SUVs.
Visa increases
dividend by 20 percent
Visa Inc. says it will increase its quarterly
dividend by 20 percent.
The Foster City-based global payments
company said Wednesday that it will pay a
quarterly dividend of 48 cents per share on
Dec. 2 to its class A shareholders of record
as of Nov. 14. That is up from its most
recent dividend payment of 40 cents per
share.
The quarterly dividend increase raises the
annual dividend rate from $1. 60 per share to
$1. 92 per share.
Shares of Visa Inc. fell $2. 39, in line with
market activity, to close at $210. 92.

SAN JOSE Google is introducing an
application designed to make it easier for its
Gmail users to find and manage important
information that can often get buried in
their inboxes.
The service, called Inbox, can sort elec-
tronic receipts and bank statements into
bundles so they can be quickly fetched. This
method is similar to the way that Gmail cur-
rently separates promotional emails from
other communications sent to its users.
Inbox can also figure out the key points
of an email, such as travel itineraries, event
times and photos, and highlight the infor-
mation, according to Google. In some
instances, the app will automatically
retrieve other helpful content, such as
updated flight times, from the Web. Inbox
can also create to-do lists.
Gmail has become a virtual filing cabinet
for millions of people who can store up to
15 gigabytes in their inboxes for free. Even
with a Google search engine built into
Gmail, it can still be time consuming to find
a particular piece of information, especially
for people who have been using the service
since it began more than a decade ago.

Omar Infante celebrates with teammates after scoring a run in the second inning of the Royals7-2 win
over the Giants in Game 2 of the World Series. Game 3 is Friday in San Francisco.
T
he Burlingame football team is no
stranger to the road. The Panthers
have been veritable road warriors
more often than not over the last several
years.
Burlingame played its first six games
of the season away from the comfy con-
fines on its home field. This on the heels
of four regular-season home games in
2013 and four in 2011.
Three of the last four years, weve
been in this situation, said Burlingame
coach John
Philipopoulos. Its
not new to us.
The Panthers have
played just fine on
the road in 2014,
building a 6-0 record
overall and 2-0 in
Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division
play. They will make
their long-awaited
home season debut
when they host Terra
Nova at 7 p. m.
Friday.
Philipopoulos said the fact his team is
facing the five-time defending Bay
Division champs takes away any con-
cerns about where the game is being
played.
[Playing at home] is something were
definitely excited about, but were excited
about also playing a really good team.
Were gearing up for Terra Nova.
Senior running back/defensive back
Andrew Kennedy and senior quarterback
Avery Gindraux said there has been a bit
more buzz on campus this week and in
the locker room. Kennedy admitted play-
ing at home is a big deal.
Especially my senior year. You want
to have those memories, Kennedy said.
Both admitted it might be a bit of a
bigger deal for the school and their class-
mates because, once the game arrives,
its just the next game on the schedule as
far as the team is concerned.

CAPITOLA Bryan Stow, the San
Francisco Giants fan who suffered a traumat-
ic brain injury in a 2011 beating by two Los
Angeles Dodgers fans, is cracking jokes,
st-bumping and hoping to one day discard
his walker and run on his own.
His remarkable progress was displayed
Tuesday during an interview with ESPN at
his parents home, where the family watched
Game 1 of the World Series between the
Giants and Kansas City Royals. The Giants
won, 7-1.
During an interview nine months after the
attack, Stow had trouble smiling and hold-
ing a simple conversation, and appeared to
struggle to raise his arms and hands.
In the latest interview, he made faces for
the camera, joked about the Giants margin
of victory in Game 1, gave a thumbs-up
sign and showed off a ball signed by San
Francisco slugger Will Clark. He used a
walker but moved without assistance.
Stow, 45, said he is happy to be alive.
Waking up every morning knowing Im
here. This place makes me feel good, he
said.
Still, hes not satised with his progress.
I want to run. I want to walk, like a nor-
mal person, he said.
Stow was wearing his Giants jersey when
he was attacked by the Dodger fans in a
parking lot of Dodger Stadium on March 31,
2011.
He won a $14 million lawsuit against the
Dodgers in July, but his attorney sued the
team again last month, claiming its trying

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. Ascandal involving
bogus classes and inflated grades at the
University of North Carolina was bigger than
previously reported, encompassing about
1,500 athletes who got easy As and Bs over a
span of nearly two decades, according to an
investigation released Wednesday.
At least nine university employees were
fired or under disciplinary review, and the ques-
tion now becomes what, if anything, the
NCAAwill do next. Penalties could range from
fewer scholarships to vacated wins.
Most of the athletes were football players or
members of the schools cherished basketball
program, which won three of its five national
titles during the scandal (1993, 2005, 2009).

Royals turn the tables
Kansas City hangs a seven-spot on Giants in Game 2 of World Series
By Ronald Blum
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Billy
Butler hit a tiebreaking single,
Salvador Perez and Omar Infante
drove in two runs each with big
hits in a five-run sixth inning, and
the Kansas City Royals beat the
San Francisco Giants 7-2
Wednesday night to even the
World Series at one game apiece.
A night after the Giants opened
with a 7-1 victory for their sev-
enth straight Series win, Gregor
Blanco led off the game with a
home run against hard-throwing
rookie Yordano Ventura. Brandon
Belt tied the score 2-all with an
RBI double in the fourth.
Butlers single off Jean Machi
drove in his second run of the
night and put the Royals ahead 3-
2. Perez lined a two-run double to
the left-center wall for a three-run
lead, and Infante homered into the
left-field bullpen off Hunter
Strickland.
Game 3 is Friday night in San
Francisco.
Alcides Escobars RBI double in
the bottom of the first off Jake
Peavy and Butlers run-scoring
single in the second put the
Royals ahead 2-1 for their first
lead of the Series.
After Infantes homer,
Strickland started screaming and
got into a confrontation with
Perez as he crossed the plate. The
dugouts emptied, but no punches
were thrown and Hunter was
replaced by Jeremy Affeldt.
Ventura allowed two runs and
eight hits in 5 1-3 innings and did-
nt get a decision for the third
straight start in the postseason.
Kelvin Herrera, one of Kansas
Citys 100 mph-throwing reliev-
ers, escaped a two-on, one-out jam
in the sixth and was in line for the
win.

BERKELEY With his banged-up and
beleaguered secondary still trying to get
healthy, California coach Sonny Dykes
wouldnt mind getting a break in the sched-
ule.
It wont happen this week.
The Golden Bears host No. 6 Oregon and
Heisman Trophy contender Marcus Mariota
on Friday in the first-ever college football
game played at Levis Stadium, home to the
NFLs San Francisco 49ers.
Dykes calls Mariota the best player in the
country, an assertion few in the Pac-12 will
argue against.
You just dont see many guys who are 6-
4, 220 that can run like he can run, Dykes
said this week. He makes good decisions,
takes care of the ball. Hes one of those
guys that he doesnt run a lot but when he
picks his spots hes very effective. People
have a hard time getting him on the
ground.
Hes also the last thing Cals defense need
to see.
The Ducks (6-1, 3-1) have won five
straight against the Bears and are position-
ing themselves to make another run at the
Pac-12 championship behind their do-it-all
quarterback while Cal is riding a three-game
losing streak.
Mariota has thrown for nearly 2, 000
yards this season and has at least one touch-
down pass in each of the 33 games hes
played in at Oregon.
Barring injury, Mariota will complete a
pass sometime in the first half against Cal
and move into the Ducks record books as
the schools career passing leader.
More critically as far as the Bears are con-
cerned, Mariota has been among the most
precise quarterbacks in the country. He has a
streak of 238 consecutive pass attempts
without an interception dating back to last
season. Its the second-longest stretch in
Oregon history behind Mariotas streak of
353 set from 2012-13.
Considering Cals pass defense is ranked
last in the Pac-12, Fridays game is setting
up as a potential field day for Mariota and
the Ducks offense.
Ive said it before and I believe it, I think
Mariotas the best player in college foot-
ball, Dykes said. I really do. I dont think
theres anybody that means more to their
team than he does. Hes a pretty unique tal-
ent.
The Bears (4-3, 2-3) havent had much
luck at all in their previous two games
against Mariota.
As a freshman in 2012, the Oregon quar-
terback threw for 377 yards and a career-
high six touchdown passes against Cal. He
lightened up a bit last year but still passed
for a pair of scores and ran for a third.
Turns out Mariota was only scratching the
surface.
Oregons record-setting quarterback has
19 touchdown passes this season, giving
him 82 in two-plus seasons. Mariota has
not been intercepted since late last year and
is second on the team with five rushing
touchdowns.
The Ducks are also getting a big boost
from running back Royce Freeman. The
Oregon freshman is coming off back-to-
back 100-yard games and is tied for seventh
nationally with 11 touchdowns.
Athletic people everywhere, speed
everywhere, Cal cornerback Cameron
Walker said. We just have to make sure that
the 5-yard routes dont turn into 15-yard
routes. Minimizing the yards after catch is
probably the most important thing.
The Bears have been banged up defensive-
ly most of the season and it has taken its
toll. Washington State quarterback Connor
Halliday scorched Cal for an NCAA-record
734 passing yards in the Cougars 60-59
loss on Oct. 4.
The upside for the Bears has been their
own quarterback.
Jared Goff is second in the nation with 24
touchdown passes, has thrown for 2, 482
yards and owns a 173. 1 passer efficiency
rating. Mariotas mark of 191. 0 leads all
college quarterbacks.
Theyre different, Dykes said.
Mariotas a pretty unique talent just in
terms of size and speed. Jareds kind of
designed different. Hes more of a tradition-
al pocket-passer quarterback.

Crouch finished with 10 second-half saves for

SAN FRANCISCO No surprise that Hall
of Fame coach Tara VanDerveers Stanford
team is picked to win a 15th consecutive Pac-
12 regular-season womens basketball cham-
pionship, though she doesnt pay much
attention to preseason hype.
We want to be a championship team at the
end, she said. I hope well live up to the
pick by the other coaches, I dont want to
disappoint them.
VanDerveer learned from her father to
always prepare to be best at the end.
The rest of the conference is confident the
Pac-12 is better than it has been in years.
Having been at Stanford as long as Ive
been at Stanford, every year is really hard,
VanDerveer, in her 29th year as Cardinal
coach, said during Wednesdays media day.
Do I expect a big battle this year? Yes, but I
expect it every year.
A poll of the league coaches gave the
Cardinal 116 points and seven first-place
votes, the Pac-12 announced during its media
day Wednesday. Bay Area rival California
was chosen to finish in second place.
Stanford is Stanford, they just kind of
reload with more All-Americans, said first-
year Oregon coach Kelly Graves, who came
to Eugene from a successful run at Gonzaga.
Weve played them every single year for the
last six to eight years. I always thought we
had the two best programs on the West Coast
and should have been playing. They show
you everything youre weak at, they expose
you for what you arent.
Despite losing Pac-12 Player of the Year
and All-American Chiney Ogwumike to the
WNBA, VanDerveer welcomes back 12 letter-
winners from last season, when the Cardinal
reached the Final Four for the sixth time in
seven years.
We have to do it by committee, point
guard Amber Orrange said. One persons not
going to be able to do what Chiney did for us
last year.
With the Ogwumike sisters gone for the
Cardinal, Washington coach Mike
Neighbors figures the team might be over-
looked nationally and surprise some people.
Though the Cardinal will get a big opportu-
nity on the national stage when they host
two-time defending champion Connecticut
on Nov. 17 at Maples Pavilion. Stanford
also plays Texas, North Carolina and
Tennessee in another daunting preseason
schedule.
Cal has been to the postseason in nine
straight seasons, including the programs
first Final Four berth in 2013 under coach
Lindsay Gottlieb.
Our program is at a point we want to win a
Pac-12 championship and well be disap-
pointed if we dont, Gottlieb said.
Following the Golden Bears in the presea-
son poll are Oregon State, UCLA,
Washington, USC, Arizona State,
Washington State, Oregon, Colorado, Utah
and Arizona. UCLA, under fourth-year coach
Cori Close, advanced to the second round of
the NCAAtournament and has the top recruit-
ing class in the country.
I made a promise to them that we were
going to go for it, Close said. Weve got to
earn things.
Cal senior point guard Brittany Boyd said
she and her teammates have found ways lead-
ing up to this season to push themselves to
get better.
We finally can be in a position its OK to
be uncomfortable. That means were grow-
ing, she said.
Stanford women picked
to win Pac-12 hoops title By Charles Odum
ATHENS, Ga. Mark Richt said he was
optimistic on Wednesday as Georgia was
expected to file a request with the NCAA for
tailback Todd Gurleys eligibility to be rein-
stated.
Gurley, the Southeastern Conferences
leading rusher, has been suspended for the
last two games while Georgia investigated
allegations he broke NCAA rules by receiv-
ing improper benefits.
I think we as an institution and Todd as a
student-athlete did everything within the
protocol of the governing body, the NCAA,
so hopefully it all will end well and hopeful-
ly sooner than later, Richt said after
Wednesdays practice.
Georgia said in the statement released
Wednesday morning it hopes for and
expects a prompt ruling by the NCAA. It
was unclear Wednesday evening if the uni-
versity had filed the request.
Richt has confirmed the allegations
involved autographs. In the statement
released by Georgia on Wednesday, Gurley
acknowledged making mistakes.
I want to thank the university, coaches,
teammates, and the Bulldog Nation for their
patience and support, Gurley said. I take
full responsibility for the mistakes I made,
and I cant thank the university, my coach-
es, and teammates enough for supporting
me throughout this process. Im looking
forward to getting back on the field with my
teammates.
Richt said he believes Gurley has been
honest in the way he addressed the allega-
tions.
I think we all make mistakes, Richt
said. What Ive always asked of our players
is if they do make a mistake to be honest
about it and to take their discipline like a
man and then move on in a positive direc-
tion, move on in a positive way. I think
thats the approach Todd has taken right
now.

Peavy settled down after Escobars hit,
retiring 10 in a row on 28 pitches before
Lorenzo Cains soft single to center leading
off the sixth. He walked Eric Hosmer, and
Machi came in and left a fastball up to
Butler, who lined it into left for the go-
ahead run.
San Francisco tied a World Series record
by using five pitchers in the sixth.
After the ceremonial first pitch from
retired Royals star George Brett, Blanco
drove Venturas eighth pitch, a 98 mph fast-
ball, into the Kansas City bullpen for his
first home run since Sept. 22. It was the
10th home run by the opening batter of a
Series game, the first since Bostons
Johnny Damon in 2004.
Escobar reached on an infield hit leading
off the bottom half, a hard one-hopper that
popped out of the glove of shortstop
Brandon Crawford, who tried for a backhand
stop.
Escobar was caught stealing second by
catcher Buster Posey, but Cain doubled with
two outs, Hosmer walked and Butler bounced
a single past the outstretched glove of a div-
ing Crawford, ending Kansas Citys 0-for-
17 slide with runners in scoring position
dating to Game 2 of the AL Championship
Series against Baltimore.
Butler is a . 429 hitter (15 for 35) against
Peavy.
Making his first start since Oct. 11,
Ventura showed the heat that made him the
starting pitcher with the highest average
velocity in the major leagues this year. He
reached 100 mph on his first pitch to Posey
in the first.
Infante pulled a double with one out in the
second and scored with two outs for a 2-1
lead when Peavy left a first-pitch fastball
over the plate and Escobar sliced an oppo-
site-field double inside the right-field line.
Pablo Sandoval doubled leading off the
fourth, a drive that bounced off the glove of
Cain with his back to the plate near the cen-
ter-field wall. Sandoval, who reached base
for his 25th consecutive postseason game,
scored when Belt hooked a one-out change-
up into right field for another double.
San Francisco put two on with one out in
the sixth, and the Royals brought in
Herrera, usually their seventh-inning man.
He retired Belt on a flyout to left and then,
throwing at up to 101 mph, got Michael
Morse to ground to shortstop for a forceout.
San Francisco, which opened at home en
route to titles in 2010 and 2012, was trying
to become the first team to win the first two
Series games on the road since the 1999
New York Yankees on the way to their sweep
of Atlanta. Forty-two of 53 teams to take 2-
0 leads went on to win the title, including
nine straight since the 1996 Braves lost to
the Yankees in six games.
After a day off, the Series shifts Friday to
bayside AT&T Park in San Francisco.
NOTES: Baseball Commissioner Bud
Selig held a pregame news conference to
honor Pete Frates, the former Boston
College baseball captain who is afflicted
with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also
known as Lou Gehrigs disease. Frates
inspired the ice bucket challenge last sum-
mer, and Selig presented an inscribed silver
ice bucket to his father, John; mother,
Nancy; brother, Andrew, and sister,
Jennifer. Frates, 29, was diagnosed 2 1/2
years ago. He is paralyzed and was not able
to attend. . . . Commissioner elect Rob
Manfred presented a pair of new awards for
relief pitchers, named after Mariano Rivera
and Trevor Hoffman. Kansas Citys Greg
Holland received the AL honor and Atlantas
Craig Kimbrel was given the NL award.

GIANTS
By Ronald Blum
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Giants manager
Bruce Bochy signaled to his bullpen and got
no relief. Over and over.
While the Kansas City Royals showed off
their late-inning heat, San Franciscos
relievers melted down.
Given a sixth-inning tie to preserve, Jean
Machi allowed Billy Butlers go-ahead sin-
gle. Rookie Hunter Strickland then allowed
Salvador Perezs two-run double and Omar
Infantes two-run homer in the Giants 7-2
loss to Kansas City on Wednesday night,
which tied the World Series at one game
apiece.
The lasting image of the evening for the
Giants was of Strickland shouting and get-
ting into a confrontation with Perez, then
getting removed from the game.
San Franciscos bullpen had the fifth-best
ERA in the majors during the regular season
at 3. 01, while Kansas City was 10th at
3. 30. And while Santiago Casilla, Jeremy
Affeldt, Javier Lopez and Sergio Romo are
among the seven players who have played
in all three of the Giants postseason runs
since 2010, there have been signs of
unsteadiness.
Jake Peavy had retired 10 in a row before
Lorenzo Cains soft single to center leading
off the sixth. Peavy walked Eric Hosmer
before Machi came in, fell behind Butler 2-
0 and allowed a go-ahead single to left.
Lopez retired Alex Gordon on a flyout, and
Bochy brought in Strickland, who gave up
Bryce Harpers third-deck home run in the
NL Division Series opener at Washington
and a splash shot to Harper that landed
between kayaks in McCovey Cove during
Game 4. Harper shouted at Strickland that
afternoon. This time, the pitcher did the
yelling.
He threw a wild pitch that advanced the
runners to second and third, then one pitch
later threw a 97 mph fastball that Perez sent
to the wall in left-center on three hops.
Two pitches later, Infante deposited a 98
mph fastball into the left-field bullpen. It
was the fifth home run Strickland has served
up this postseason.
Strickland appeared to be shouting at
himself as Perez neared the plate. Words
were exchanged, and the benches emptied.
No punches were thrown.
Giants bullpen has rare postseason melt down in Game 2 loss
$43K worth of counterfeit
World Series merchandise seized
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Bogus World Series
tickets worth tens of thousands of dollars, as
well as counterfeit panties and other mer-
chandise have been seized, federal authorities
said Wednesday.
Homeland Security agents nabbed 126
counterfeit tickets before Game 1 between the
Royals and the San Francisco Giants on
Tuesday. U. S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement spokesman Shawn Neudauer
said the tickets had a $43,000 street value.
Its the Royals first trip to the champi-
onship in 29 years. The World Series games
in Kansas City are mostly sold out, although
the Royals have sold a smattering of tickets
theyd held in reserve each day. Some stand-
ing-room only tickets are selling for as much
as $400 on legitimate resale sites.
Three people from New York and one per-
son from Atlanta were arrested in Kansas and
have been charged in the ticket scheme,
Johnson County District Attorney Steve
Howe said in a news release. Authorities sus-
pect more sports fans bought bogus tickets
from the suspects, and urged them to come
forward.

Goodell told to
testify in Rice appeal
Aperson familiar with the case has told
The Associated Press that an arbiter has ruled
that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell
should testify in Ray Rices appeal of his
indefinite suspension.
The arbiter, former U.S. District Judge
Barbara S. Jones,
informed the parties of
her decision
Wednesday.
Rice was suspended
indefinitely Sept. 8 for
violating the NFLs per-
sonal conduct policy
after a video of Rice hit-
ting his then-fiancee in
an elevator was released
publicly. Goodell originally had suspended
the running back for two games.

to recoup $3. 4 million in insurance payments from Stow
for his medical care.
Joe Jareck, a Dodgers spokesman, did not immediately
return a call seeking comment Wednesday.
Stow was in the courtroom for part of the trial, his
wheelchair positioned front and center so jurors could
see the huge, deep scars on his head, the result of his
skull being temporarily removed as doctors worked to
save his life.
At the trial, experts testied that the former paramedic
would never work again and has suffered repeated strokes
and seizures. They said he would require around-the-clock
care.
Stow, a father of two, has moved in with his parents
after leaving a rehabilitation facility. His father, Dave
Stow, said the family is surprised by the progress.
We didnt think he would be this mobile or vocal. He
can sit and have dinners with us. Hes very funny, the
elder Stow said.
Bryan Stow said he remembers going to watch the
Giants play. According to his parents, though, he does-
nt remember the attack. His parents say they have re-
created a memory of it at his request.
Stow said had he known he was being attacked, he
would have turned to see his assailant running at him,
ready to clock my block.
Louie Sanchez and Marvin Norwood pleaded guilty in
the attack. Sanchez was sentenced to eight years in
prison, while Norwood received a four-year sentence.

It is more exciting this week (around campus), but once
we get on the field, its just a game, Gindraux said.
Philipopoulos has scheduled 12 of the teams last 20 reg-
ular-season games on the road because of renovations to
the schools stadium bleachers. The work was originally
supposed to be done in the summer of 2013, but work was
delayed until this summer. By that time, however, it was
too late to change the 2013 schedule.
Philipopoulos said work on the bleachers began in late
June or early July and said the construction has mostly hit
its target dates.
A couple of time frames were thrown out there. It was
within the target date (of completion), Philipopoulos
said.
To Philipopoulos, the game could be played on the moon
for all he cares. Home, away, it doesnt matter. All he
knows is he has to find a way to stop Terra Novas offense
and how to beat the Tigers defense.
In the back of his mind, however, he knows playing
home games is a big deal.
Im not downplaying it. This is a big deal for our kids.
Friday night football is a big thing at Burlingame,
Philipopoulos said. The cheerleaders are a part of it and
they havent had a chance to perform in front of the home
fans. The band works really hard. We expect a pretty big
crowd on Friday.
Whether home or away, all Philipopoulos asks for is the
game be played at night. He insists there is a difference
between playing during the day.
In my mind, the only road games I dislike are three
oclock (starts). The game is slower during the day. Ive
heard that from other coaches as well, Philipopoulos said.
He does, however, have a more practical reason.
We havent played well during the day. If feels like prac-
tice.
Give me some lights, give me some dark and were good
to go.
***
The Aragon, Burlingame and San Mateo football teams
will participate in the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event
Saturday in San Mateo to help raise awareness and money
to help in the fight against domestic violence and sexual
abuse.
Geared mainly toward a male audience, participants are
asked to literally don high-heel shoes and walk a mile.
Aragon coach Steve Sell, Burlingames Philipopoulos
and San Mateos Jeff Scheller are all parents of daughters
and for Philipopoulos, he thought it would be an incredible
teaching moment for his players. He said he received a ran-
dom email from the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes organizers
and simply signed up.
Its a chance) to slip in a little lesson, teach then what
it takes to be good men and boyfriends, Philipopoulos
said. I have three daughters and a wife I love all very
much. This issue is very important for me.
He said the fact Aragon and San Mateo are participating
is pure coincidence. He said he did not talk it over with the
other two coaches.
There was not connection at all (between Burlingame,
Aragon and San Mateo), Philipopoulos said. I know and
respect Steve and Jeff a lot. I respect what theyre doing
(by participating) and I applaud that.
The Panthers, at least, wont get the full experience,
because Philipopoulos said his players will not be strap-
ping on any stilettos.
I dont want anyone twisting an ankle, Philipopoulos
said. Were just going to go and do the walk.
He wasnt sure if either Aragon or San Mateo were going
to go all the way, but he wouldnt mind if one team in par-
ticular wanted to pull on a pair of pumps.
I hope San Mateo is, Philipopoulos said with a laugh.
We play them.
The event will be held from 9 a. m. to noon, Saturday at
CORA (Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse) facil-
ities at 2311 Palm Ave. , San Mateo.

through the report with them as part of our ongoing investiga-
tion, Cunningham said. Thats going to take some time.
In all, about 3,100 students enrolled in classes they didnt have
to show up for in what was deemed a shadow curriculum within
the former African and Afro-American Studies (AFAM) department
from 1993 to 2011, the report by former U.S. Justice Department
official Kenneth Wainstein found.
Many at the university hoped Wainsteins eight-month inves-
tigation would bring some closure. Instead, it found more aca-
demic fraud than previous investigations by the NCAAand the
school.
The UNC case stands out among academic scandals at Harvard,
Duke and the Naval Academy, said Howard Gardner, a professor at
Harvards Graduate School of Education who studies cheating.
I think the existence of fake classes and automatic grades
you might say an athlete track, where essentially you might as
well not have the university at all I think thats pretty extreme.
I hope its pretty extreme, he said.
The scandal reached back to the final years of legendary mens
basketball coach Dean Smiths tenure, as well as Mack Browns
time as football coach before leaving for Texas and John
Swoffords stint as athletic director before becoming Atlantic
Coast Conference commissioner.
The NCAAreopened its probe over the summer. Cunningham
said the school had no immediate plans to impose its own penal-
ties as it did during an NCAAinvestigation into the football pro-
gram that began in 2010.
The school and the NCAAsaid in a joint statement they would
review Wainsteins report under the same standards that are
applied in all NCAAinfractions cases. They declined to com-
ment on possible rules violations.
The focus was courses that required only a research paper that
was often scanned quickly by a secretary, who gave out high
grades regardless of the quality of work. The report also outlined
how counselors for athletes steered struggling students to the
classes, with two counselors even suggesting grades. Several
knew the courses were easy and didnt have an instructor.
Chancellor Carol Folt wouldnt identify the terminated
employees or those facing disciplinary review.
I think its very clear that this is an academic, an athletic and
a university problem, Folt said.
FRAUD
SUBURBAN LIVING 17
By Beth J. Harpaz
NEW YORK So you want to paint a room white.
Sounds easy, until you go to the hardware store to buy
paint and discover there are dozens of whites to choose
from.
Many have familiar yet poetic names that conjure up
ever-so-slightly different hues: cream, pearl, vanilla,
snow, chalk, ivory, jasmine, bone. But the closer you
look, the more confusing the choices are. You want a
plain, basic white, but the purest white on the color chart
looks a little harsh next to all those soft shades with just
a hint of something else beige, gray, peach, rose,
yellow or the palest-ever blue or green.
Often people default to white because they dont want
strong colors in their home. But as it turns out, its
harder t o choose whi t e t han any ot her col or, sai d
Sharon Grech, a color design expert at Benjamin Moore
Paints.
She says Benjamin Moore alone offers more than 150
whites, and when people are choosing white, I see more
people unhappy or making a mistake or being shocked at
the color than when they choose other colors.
And watch out if you go with a pure white untinted by
any other hue. Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of
the Pantone Color Institute, which maintains color stan-
dards, says the purity and cleanliness of the purest
whites can also make them feel very sterile and cold.
And you can literally get eyestrain from too much daz-
zling white. So youve got to be cautious. Most people
dont want to live with hospital white.
More so than with other colors, whites are also more
influenced by colors around them, so Grech says its cru-
cial to try a sample to see how it looks in the room. Buy
a pint and paint a 2-by-2-foot board that you can move
around your home. Sometimes the sun hits it one way or
another at different times of day, or it looks different
against the rug, or you realize its got a lot of pink in it
or green in it, she said. It might look totally different
in the morning than at night.
The paint sheen makes a difference too, whether matte
a flat paint or a shiny high-gloss. One recommend-
ed mix is a semi-gloss trim with matte on the walls.
And dont forget the ceiling. More people are think-
ing of the ceiling as a fifth wall, Grech said. Think
about it in terms of all the rooms that white is going to
be flowing through on the ceiling.
Most people want flat paint on the ceiling, but if you
want to bring focus to the ceiling, a semi-gloss or high
gloss can look spectacular in the right space, she said.
James Mart i n i s an archi t ect ural col or consul t ant
whose company, the Color People, designs colors for
buildings. He says if youre going to have white, you
want to use a warm white yellow white, peachy white,
rosy white. Anything you live with, you want it to be
warm. Its especially important in an old house: If you
use a warm white, youll see all the wonderful details in
the surrounding woodwork much better, he said.
He adds that white kills art. When you put a piece of
art against a white wall, it isolates the painting so it
becomes like a postage stamp a thing in a box. If you
put the same painting against a colored wall, it elimi-
nates those boundaries, pulls the colors out of the paint-
ing, and brings the painting to life.
Martin doesnt like white walls, though hell use off-
white in a ceiling. He cautions that bright white trim and
a bright white ceiling will make other colors look
brighter than they would if you were using an off-white.
What can work, he says, if you really like white, is to
choose a warm white for walls in a flat sheen, then high-
gloss trim the same color. Its a very sexy, subtle thing
to do, he said.
Dont pick colors online, advises Martin, because they
can be distorted. But there is an art to studying the paper
fan deck of paint colors in the store. Bring a white piece
of paper with a square cut out so you can focus on the
color youre considering without being influenced by the
hues around it.
And if youre color-challenged and unsure whether the
white youre eyeing is more on the rosy side or the
orange side, follow it in the fan deck from its palest iter-
ation to its deepest, to see its true undertone. Warm tints
include red, orange, yellow, and offshoots like peach and
apricot, but if you want to cool a room off, go for colors
like blue and purple. In between are the neutrals taupe,
gray, beige.
And dont get overwrought about the choices. I think
most people have more judgment than they think they
do, Eiseman said. You look at something, you have a
doubt about it because your eye is telling you something
is off here. Or you look at it and it pleases you. In the
end, its your eye and your comfort level.
White walls? The trick is choosing the right white
More so than with other colors, whites are also more influenced by colors around them.

district around.
Grindy, whos been with the district for
almost three years, and Grenell have been
scrutinized by the public and commercial
fishing industry recently with accusations
of making sweetheart deals favoring indi-
vidual leaseholders.
Still, Grindy received the 2014 Harbor
Master of the Year award from the California
Association of Harbor Masters and Port
Captains.
Of course you want options because you
want to pick the best of the best and we want
the best of the best. And in my opinion and
in the opinion of the California
Association of Harbors Masters, we do have
the best, Commissioner Robert Bernardo
said. So yes, we do want to take a look at
whats out there, but right now we need
someone who can take the helm and move
forward.
Brennan said while Grindy may be a top
candidate, the district and public deserve to
look at other applicants. With the recent
San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury investi-
gation that recommended the district be dis-
solved and the county now considering dis-
banding the special district, Brennan said
filling this key position is essential.
Brennan said shes tried to have a public
discussion about hiring an executive search
firm to assist the district, but none of her
fellow commissioners were willing to con-
sider it.
The whole point is to find the person
with the best qualifications thats going to
lead the [district], you want to pick some-
body whos in the best interests of the dis-
trict, Brennan said. It just appears like
this particular board doesnt want to go
through that process, they just want to slap
somebody in and call it good and I think
that given all the scrutiny with the civil
grand jury those are all the more reasons
why it would make sense to handle this very
professionally.
But hiring such a firm comes at a cost and
the district already has top talent in house,
Bernardo and Commissioner Jim Tucker
said.
Bernardo, who works for the Port of
Oakland, said hes experienced agencies hir-
ing executive search firms that can range
from $20, 000 to $60, 000 or more, which
would be an excessive cost for a small dis-
trict.
I believe in promoting from within,
especially when you have qualified candi-
dates, Bernardo said. And in my opinion,
it would be a complete waste of public funds
to use $20, 000 for a search firm for a district
of 27 [staff].
Grindy will be responsible for managing
the special district that oversees Pillar
Point Harbor in Half Moon Bay and Oyster
Point Marina/Park in South San Francisco
as well as a slew of miscellaneous responsi-
bilities such as managing an RV park, main-
taining a coastal trail and providing the
countys only coastside search and rescue
team.
Tucker agreed hed prefer the district not
spend the money on consultants and
believes Grindy, who is now training under
Grenell, is ripe for the job. Tucker said the
board voted for a six-month interim con-
tract and, instead of hiring an executive
search firm, wants to give Grindy the
chance to earn the position.
The job is very important. The general
manager runs the whole show and Peters
done such a great job for so many years,
hes got big shoes to fill, Tucker said. I
think well have to wait until Scott per-
forms, thats see what he does and how
things work for a while.

Redwood Shores Faculty Association have
to work second jobs to make ends meet,
which hurts their total commitment to stu-
dents, association President Angela Sveda
said in a press release. The average teacher
salary in the district for the 2012-13
school year was $72, 440, according to data
from the California Department of
Education.
Our Belmont-Redwood Shores educators
are the best in the business, and our com-
munity is losing them, Sveda said in the
statement. As we enter a third year without
a contract, it has become about respect for
the work that we do. We love our students
and parents, and we want to thank them for
their unending support during this trying
time.
The district is making an effort to settle
the contract and feels like its negotiating a
good raise respectfully, said Superintendent
Michael Milliken. Milliken also wrote a
communication to the community Tuesday
in which he stated that the district is look-
ing forward to meeting with teacher repre-
sentatives and hopes to have this resolved
soon.
As you may know, negotiations with our
employees are behind schedule, he wrote.
Part of the reason for this is the legal time-
lines and procedures that are in place when
school districts and their employee bar-
gaining groups disagree on appropriate
compensation adjustments. This was the
case in 2012-13, when the district and our
teachers bargaining group declared
impasse in the fall of 2013. Since then, we
have sought the assistance of a state-
approved mediator and gone through the
formal process of presenting to a fact find-
ing panel in June 2014.
The panel is still working on its report,
he wrote. Regardless of the timing of the
panels report, the districts plan is to eval-
uate the county tax collectors projections
for the districts 2014-15 revenue, which it
just received this week, and meet with the
employees to negotiate an agreement
through the 2014-15 school year, he wrote.
We believe that the teachers deserve a
raise, and we would prefer a quicker
process, he wrote. The challenge is find-
ing a compensation increase that meets the
teachers cost of living interests within the
parameters of a responsible budget. Also, it
is important to note that all of our staff are
continuing to receive their pay and health
benefits, and by statute their contractual
rights and protections are extended without
change until we come to our next agree-
ment.
A teachers association survey conducted
earlier this year found that about 58 percent
of Belmont educators are struggling now to
pay their mortgages and rent costs and 26
percent will be forced to move out of
Belmont unless more support is provided.

PROTEST
By Leanne Italie
NEW YORK Patti Woods-LaVoie loves
Halloween and all things candy, but she has
a hard and fast rule when it comes to teens
and trick-or-treating.
Show up at her door in Trumbull, Conn. ,
with a costume and she means something
more than a baseball hat and jersey and
her candy bowl is your candy bowl.
Ring her bell in street clothes and youll
get teabags, ramen noodles, shampoo sam-
ples or some other discard from her pantry
or closets.
Some come in cars, she said. They
park and go from neighborhood to neigh-
borhood. My husband is just waiting for the
day our house gets egged by someone who
got a teabag.
When it comes to big kids with pillow
cases begging for candy on Halloween,
there seem to be three camps.
The sure, why nots say they overbuy and
are happy to let teens scarf up the leftovers
so they dont eat it all themselves. The Nos
find it overly cynical when older kids arent
in costumes that took some planning. And
the middle-grounders believe teens arent in
it just for the loot and still truly enjoy the
ritual of dressing up and going door-to-
door.
So how old is too old for trick or treating?
Im cutting mine off at 14, but if teens
show up at my door and are polite Ill give
them candy, said Betsy Tant in Knoxville,
Tenn. , mom to a 13-year-old daughter and
two younger kids.
Last year, when her daughter was 12,
someone said they felt it was inappropri-
ate for her to be trick or treating, even
though she was with her 4-year-old sister,
Tant said. They assumed she was a teen
because shes tall. They were mad. I had to
intervene and it was very uncomfortable.
Other candy givers who are also parents
said it feels more like extortion than good
fun when the older teens show up, especial-
ly hulk-sized boys mowing over toddlers to
get to the door.
I also think its about adults not trusting
older kids, Tant said. With teens,
Halloween can be more about tricks. Teens
tend to be more impulsive and less con-
cerned with consequences.
Laurie A. Coutures 18-year-old son,
Brycen, said he went trick-or-treating with
his mom until he was 15. He wanted to
enjoy the holiday with her after his adop-
tion at age 11.
BOO! Should teens be allowed to trick-or-treat?
SUBURBAN LIVING 19

Cozying up in a favorite sweater is one of
the distinct pleasures of autumn.
This fall, designers and retailers are
stitching up sweater motifs on an array of
home dicor. So while youre wrapping your-
self in a big, soft cardigan, you can also
grace your space with a dollop of knitted
comfort.
Hannah Millman, executive editorial
director of crafts for Martha Stewart Living,
says knitwear is a trend with near-universal
appeal. She suggests some do-it-yourself
projects.
Almost everyone has a memory of a
sweater that makes them feel good. Whats
so great about repurposing one of your own
is that you get to keep it and enjoy it, she
says. And if youve found one at a market
that someone may have knit back in the
40s, you can give it the opportunity to be
loved again by making it into something
new.
One of Millmans favorite ways to reuse
sweaters: Collect a bunch of creamy-hued
ones, in one type of knit or perhaps several,
and cut them up to make a blanket, pillow or
rug. Youll find project ideas and instruc-
tions at Marthastewart. com as well as
Countryliving. com, where there are also
how-tos for lamps, bowls and sconces.
Creating a little story on pillows using
pieces of old sweaters is a big trend, she
says. Look for pieces in gradations of color
perhaps pale pink to deep cherry, or sky
blue to indigo. Or search tag sales and thrift
stores for sweaters with nature motifs to cre-
ate a group of woodland pillows.
Those dreadful Christmas sweaters of old
can be transformed into new Christmas
stockings; other heavily patterned and col-
orful sweaters make great rugs.
Millman suggests using a rotary cutter and
anchoring the edges of a loose knit with
masking tape while cutting, to reduce fray-
ing.
She also advises washing any woolens in
hot soapy water in case there are moths. If
you then machine-dry the sweater, youll
end up with a felted material, popular in
crafting circles, where the fibers smush
together. If you line-dry the garment, the
knit pattern remains and the fibers stay sep-
arated.
If you arent up for a craft project yourself,
dont worry there are lots of stores offer-
ing sweater-themed items.

Fall decor gets cozy
By Kim Cook
This years design shows, such as NY
Now and the Architectural Digest Home
Design Show, have featured eye-catching
pieces by designers and artists who take
elements from nature and give them glam-
orous makeovers.
Were seeing lots of metallic paint,
tweaked shapes and polished finishes. The
resulting art and furniture pieces can be as
stunning as the inspiration from which
theyre drawn.
Molly McCall uses old techniques to cre-
ate contemporary art pieces in her Carmel
Valley, California, studio. Images of plants
and butterflies are captured with light and
sensitized paper in a process known as pho-
togrammetry. McCall transfers some of the
photograms onto glass plates, fusing the
layers with a glaze of crushed glass that
results in a finished plate similar to milk
glass.
I try to look for new ways to see the
world around me, and then capture that
moment, she says. The collection of
prints, some on paper and others on metal,
contains delicate, often ethereal imagery of
wildflowers and grasses, and even a hum-
mingbird in mid-flight. (www. mollymc-
call. com )
Welsh artist Michael Angoves prints of
flowers and greenery are made using 3-D
scanning techniques. His studio in
Wiltshire, England, studio sits in a garden
full of ready inspiration.
A frothy hydrangea is visited by lime-
white butterflies; plump roses cascade in
rich tones of velvety red, china blue or
dovish pink and gray. His Topiary print was
made by laying out 4, 000 boxwood leaves
in an intricate, damask-like pattern, to
which Angove added tiny glittering beetles.
The 3-D process creates a luxurious trompe
loeil effect. (www. michaelangove. com)
With a background in graphic design and
fine art, Quebec-born Ysabel LeMay com-
poses fantasy scenes using hundreds of
images of flowers, trees, birds, insects and
other natural elements, layering them in a
process she calls photo-fusion. She
plays with scale so that an ibis appears to
be taking nectar from a lily, and a bunting
is landing on an iris as big as an oak tree.
Theres a Alice in Wonderland vibe to the
work that makes it striking wall art.

At Z Gallerie, youll find a menagerie of
faux creatures cast in resin and finished with
silver or gold. A herd of galloping horses;

are pretty, silvered-bamboo picture frames
embellished with little beveled-mirror but-
terflies. Nickel-trimmed polished horn is
crafted into the curvy Cheyenne accent
table. The Antler side tables realistic legs
are cast in heavy-duty aluminum and then
textured, just like the real thing.

adding an unexpected luxe element like one
of French atelier THG Paris solid-brass dol-
phin or swan-shaped spouts, available in
different polished finishes. From the same

crystal turns a starfish into bathroom jew-
elry. (www. thgusa. com)

circles held together with white metal and

full of bubbles. Here too is the Rockstar

have truly below market rate housing
since the center will offer additional
services such as therapy, said the attor-
ney on the project, Mark Hudak. Its
not a project guarantee though and it
would be better to wait a year or 18
months after doors are opened to eval-
uate the economic feasibility of offer-
ing more reduced rate units, he said.
Sunrise Senior Living, a four-story,
79-unit center at 1818 Trousdale Drive
is currently under construction but
faced years of delays because of
finances. The city pressured the
national company to get the project
rolling and construction resumed earli-
er this year. Its expected to be com-
pleted in summer 2015.
The Trousdale does distinguish itself
from the private sectors Sunrise in
that its filling a gap in services, but
as a public entity, said Larry Cappel,
chair of the Peninsula Health Care
District Board of Directors.
The private sector, with some
exceptions, is not expanding into
Burlingame, and so the district, that of
a health care district, not a hospital
district, is filling needs that wont be
filled. Were excited about this proj-
ect; its what everybody had dreamed
for in terms of an assisted living facil-
ity across from the hospital.
The district policy is driven to a
great extent by demographics, so serv-
ing aging baby boomers is important,
said the district boards treasurer
Dennis Zell.
Our job is to look and see where are
the gaps? he said. Were going to
see more people in need of these serv-
ices.
This will be filling a gap that is not
being filled by the private sector, said
Mayor Michael Brownrigg.
It could it be better, perhaps, but
theres clearly a need, he said.
Meanwhile, the city brought up
questions about the aesthetics of the
building, including a chain-link fence
property divider covered in vines not
being up to par with the rest of the
building.
The original design was found to be
very cold by the Planning
Commission, Nagel said. Could you
do anything for the fence itself? The
chain link is kind of a step down from
the character of this project. You cant
cover it all.
The architects plan to look into
alternatives. The financing is in place
and the project represents six years of
diligence, Cappel said.
Your team (the council) has given
us much to chew on and we have, he
said. It meets the architectural require-
ments and fits into place beautifully at
this point. Its going to be welcoming
to the community with a lot of glass
and a lot of wood and will be open to
community for classes.
Ot her counci l members had con-
cerns about t he fence and ot her fea-
t ures of t he bui l di ng.
The wood brings an elegance to this
building, said Councilwoman Ann
Keighran. Im not saying it has to be
traditional; theres ways of softening
it. Its a corner building and much
more prominent.
The architects handling the project,
SmithGroup JJR Architects, say they
bring a knowledge of the region and
local design aesthetics. The building
will utilize Prodema metal painted
wood to the exterior to make it warmer
and to give it more character, said
Joyce Polhamus, vice president of
SmithGroup. The wood is easy to
replace and lasts a couple decades, the
architects added.
Were proud to be part of this proj-
ect thats bringing assisted living and
memory care to Burlingame, a commu-
nity with a deep need for assisted liv-
ing, she said. The site is a great fit.
Its warmer than the vision provided
previously, with simplified colors
added trellises and different window
types; its timeless.
The city will take action on a zoning
ordinance modification to allow
heights in the area to rise to 60 feet
and for this type of facility to be
housed in the neighborhood to accom-
modate the project at its 7 p. m. Nov. 3
meeting at Council Chambers, 501
Primrose Road in Burlingame.

TROUSDALE
NEW YORK A new study confirms
what many Internet users know all too
well: Harassment is a common part of
online life.
The first-of-its-kind report by the
Pew Research Center found that nearly
three-quarters of American adults who
use the Internet have witnessed online
harassment. Forty percent have expe-
rienced it themselves.
The types of harassment Pew asked
about range from name-calling to
physical threats, sexual harassment
and stalking. Half of those who were
harassed said they didnt know the per-
son who had most recently attacked
them.
Young adults people 18 to 29
were the most likely age group to see
and undergo online harassment.
Women ages 18 to 24 were dispropor-
tionately the victims of stalking and
sexual harassment, according to the
survey. And people who have more
information available about them-
selves online, work in the tech indus-
try or promote themselves on the
Internet, were also more likely to be
harassed.
Case in point: Celebrities. Stars
such as the actress Jennifer Lawrence
had nude photos stolen and posted
online recently in a widespread hack-
ing scandal in late August. Lawrence,
24, later told Vanity Fair that she con-
sidered looking at the pictures a sex
crime.
It can be difficult for police to go
after online bullies in part because
our legal system hasnt quite caught
up with technology, said Elizabeth
Dowdell, a nursing professor at
Villanova University who studies
online aggression. On top of that,
adults are generally hesitant to report
harassment because they might view it
as a child or teenage problem.
But the Internet has no age limits,
Dowdell said. People look for outlets
for aggression and the Internet is a
wonderful place because its anony-
mous and you dont have to be truth-
ful.
Social networking companies have
sometimes been criticized for not
doing enough to stop online harass-
ment, even though its standard policy
to ban threats, bullying and harass-
ment. But they have at least tried to
respond to complaints.
Twitter, for example, changed its
policy recently after some users sent
crude, altered images of Robin
Williams to his daughter Zelda follow-
ing the actors suicide in August. The
company now says it can remove
images of deceased individuals that cir-
culate on its site.
Trendy new social networking site
Ello, meanwhile, recently added tools
people can use to block or mute users
who are bothering them. The ad-free,
decidedly anti-Facebook website was
criticized early on for not providing
blocking features that are standard
practice for social networks.
Survey says harassment a
common part of online life
