District moves toward Charter Square purchase


Foster City property owners, school officials enter exclusive negotiations
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The potential for development of a new


school at the Charter Square shopping center in
Foster City took a significant step forward,
according to San Mateo-Foster City
Elementary School District officials who
announced they entered an exclusive agreement
to negotiate toward purchase of the property.

School officials struggling to cope with


capacity concerns brought on by a growing
student population have long considered
Charter Square their preferred site for a new
school, spanning back to an unsuccessful
attempt to purchase the property in 2012.
But the 120 days of exclusive negotiations
guaranteed under the agreement between the
school officials and representatives from
Westlake Realty, which owns the property, is

the furthest the district has ever progressed in


its effort to acquire the shopping center, said
Assistant Superintendent Molly Barton.
We are cautiously optimistic, said Barton.
But we are very pleased to be at this point for
the first time.
Before negotiations can move ahead, officials will need money for the purchase, which
could be made available under voter approval
of Measure X, the $148 million bond measure

on the fall ballot, said Barton.


A big piece of this getting done is us having the money, she said. Until after Nov. 3,
it cannot be done.
During the lead up to putting Measure X on
ballot, school officials had estimated purchasing the site and building a school would cost
between $50 million and $60 million.

Residents to fight evictions Man charged in San


Apartment building sold, new owners plan big renovation
Carlos hotel murder

By Bill Silverfarb

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Tenants at an 85-unit apartment complex in Redwood City that recently sold


for nearly $26 million are forming a tenants association to stave off pending
evictions.
The building sold Aug. 31 to a trust
controlled by Richard Tod Spieker, who
owns about 3,000 units of housing in San
Mateo and Santa Clara counties.
A batch of residents had their leases
terminated almost immediately after the
building was sold and were given until
Oct. 4 to move out.
A second batch of residents, about a
dozen, have until November to move out.

Although Spieker would not speak


with the Daily Journal directly, his
lawyer Bob Burmeister did.
Burmeister said the tenants must go for
major interior and exterior renovations at
the Terrace Capri Apartments, a gate
community at 1491 Hess Road, 441
Poplar and 403 Poplar avenues, near
Woodside Road and Highway 101.
Theres been almost no work on the
property in nearly 50 years. We really
have no logical choice, Burmeister said
about having the tenants vacate.
The plans are to renovate unit by unit
and eventually every resident will have
their leases terminated in waves, he said.
The rents are also below market rate
and will be raised once work is com-

plete, Burmeister said.


Many of the remaining residents do
not want to move, are seeking more time
to move or will ask for relocation assistance. Others said they will not move
until the property owner gets a court
order to force them out.
About 40 residents are forming the tenants association and have sought out help
from Community Legal Services in East
Palo Alto and the San Francisco
Organizing Project/Peninsula Interfaith
Action.
Last Thursday, SFOP/PIA conducted
several demonstrations in the Bay Area

This Day in History


War erupted in the Middle East as
Egypt and Syria launched a surprise
attack on Israel during the Yom Kippur
holiday. (Israel, initially caught offguard, suffered heavy losses before
rebounding and pushing back the Arab forces before a ceasefire finally took hold in the nearly three-week conflict.)

In 1921, the musical Bombo, starring Al Jolson, opened on
Broadway.
In 1927, the era of talking pictures arrived with the opening of
The Jazz Singer starring Al Jolson, a movie featuring both
silent and sound-synchronized sequences.
In 1939, in a speech to the Reichstag, German Chancellor
Adolf Hitler spoke of his plans to reorder the ethnic layout of
Europe a plan which would entail settling the Jewish problem.
In 1949, U.S.-born Iva Toguri DAquino, convicted of treason
for being Japanese wartime broadcaster Tokyo Rose, was
sentenced in San Francisco to 10 years in prison (she ended up
serving more than six).
In 1958, the nuclear submarine USS Seawolf surfaced after
spending 60 days submerged.
In 1960, the historical drama Spartacus, starring Kirk
Douglas and directed by Stanley Kubrick, had its world premiere in New York.
In 1976, in his second presidential debate with Democrat
Jimmy Carter, President Gerald R. Ford asserted there was no
Soviet domination of eastern Europe. (Ford later conceded
that was not the case.)

Debris pile irks neighbors


Contractor dumps dirt, pipes on SamTrans land without consent
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Large piles of debris showed up mysteriously Friday on land owned by SamTrans in San
Carlos that nearby residents say caused a large
plume of dust to materialize Saturday.
The dirt, pipes and other material dumped at
the location are from a $4.5 million sanitation
improvement project underway on Industrial
Road that the city contracted out.
Some members of the Greater East San
Carlos Neighborhood Association initially
thought the material and heavy dust cloud it
created Saturday was dumped on the land, the
future home of the Transit Village, by
SamTrans.
But Monday, SamTrans spokeswoman
Jayme Ackemann said the contractor dumped
the material without the agencys consent.
Dumping first happened on the site a couple
of weeks ago, Ackemann said, and SamTrans
notified city officials about it.
The dumping has taken place on land
SamTrans has already leased for a pumpkin
patch, she said.

On Sunday, a Public Works crew with the


city covered the debris piles with blue tarps
because of the weekends high winds, City
Manager Jeff Maltbie said.
Maltbie spent much of the weekend dealing
with residents complaining about the dust and
trying to mitigate it.
The contractor was in discussions with
SamTrans about leasing the land temporarily
during the Industrial Road project, Maltbie
said.
Some residents said they were concerned
the dust cloud Saturday may have contained
toxic materials.
Maltbie said that the material will have to be
tested before a dump site will accept it.
The city may also have land the contractor
can use temporarily to store the debris, he
said.
In the meantime, workers started removing
large chunks of pipe from the debris pile on
the SamTrans property on El Camino Real
north of Holly Street at about 1 p.m.
The work sent clouds of dust in the air
Monday.
Members of the nearby neighborhood association said the dust cloud Saturday due to

high winds resembled a toxic plume.
Part of the dumped debris from Industrial
Road included storm drain silt as well. The
pile was left uncovered and not wetted down,
said Ben Fuller, president of the Greater East
San Carlos Neighborhood Association.
Fuller said he breathed in some of the dust
and is suffering effects still from the exposure. He told the Daily Journal that he will
see a doctor to make sure hes OK.
Other residents in the area have also com-

plained about having respiratory issues, feeling dizzy and smelling strange odors in the air.
In the meantime, Vice Mayor Cameron
Johnson said that there should be some consequences if the contractor violated the terms of
the agreement with the city related to storing
the debris.
He also said there is no indication so far that
the debris pile poses a threat to public health.
The city is taking it seriously, Johnson
said.

San Carlos in talks over new turf


City, school officials look to broaden access for sports fields
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Young athletes in San Carlos may


soon be playing sports on artificial
turf, under a team effort considered
by city and school officials to install
the new playing surface at athletic
fields on school campuses.
The San Carlos Elementary
School District Board of Trustees
will meet Thursday, Oct. 8, to discuss an initial proposal to replace
the natural grass fields at Tierra
Linda Middle School as well as
Heather and Arundel elementary
school, with artificial turf.
Due to the limited amount of athletic fields in San Carlos, city officials have expressed a willingness
to contribute some money to the
renovation effort, should the new
fields be open for public use when
not being used by students.
We are working on a partnership
with the city, to see if we can jointly provide outdoor learning space,
and in particular, sports space, said
Superintendent Craig Baker.
The talks are only in their formative stages, noted Baker, but there
seems to be a general willingness by
the school district and city to investigate the potential for a shared use,
and payment agreement.
The upcoming school board discussion is born out of meetings
between school and city officials, in
which the two agencies discuss the
opportunity for collaboration.
San Carlos Vice Mayor Cameron
Johnson, who represents the city in
those meetings, echoed the potential
interest of the city to participate in
the renovation effort, should that
bear greater community access to
sports fields.
We are looking for any kind of
creative solutions to get more athletic fields, he said.
Johnson said some of the local
sports clubs have had to look
beyond the borders of San Carlos to

Comment on

find open fields to practice or play


on, so if there is an opportunity to
broaden access to the fields on
school campuses, the city would be
interested in that agreement.
Steve Kempton, president of the
San Carlos Little League, echoed
the need for more playing fields in
the city.
Finding field space is our biggest
challenge, he said in an email. We
have a strong community of volunteers and our registration numbers
continue to grow, so the challenge
will not go away any time soon.
As officials continue to examine
the need for more field access, they
will also consider the best way to
manage the restrictions brought
forth by the drought California is
experiencing, said Baker.
Artificial turf requires less water
and maintenance costs than natural
grass, said Baker, which might be
more appealing to officials looking
to invest in renovating the district
fields.
San Carlos residents have had a
history of opposing installation of
the artificial surface in the past
though, due in part to health concerns that could be posed by emissions from the turf when the rubber
in the field gets hot during the summer.
Officials recognized the proposal
to install turf as a potential stumbling block for the project, should
talks progress.
Board of Trustees President Carol
Elliott said she is interested to hear
what members of the community
say regarding the proposal to install
turf fields.
There are passionate people on
both sides of the issue, she said.
That is something we need to be

sensitive to.
She said though she believed the
perspective of some who have
opposed turf fields in the past may
be swayed by the watering restraints
brought forth by the drought.
I do think the conversation is
changing a little, she said.
Johnson said as the talks leading
toward the field installation are still
in the formative stage, he is impartial to the choice over whether artificial turf should be used.
He noted though there are turf
fields in San Carlos currently, and
whether the artificial surface is
installed at the schools will be contingent on input from residents, city
and school officials as well as others.
Well definitely hear from the
community as this project moves
forward, he said.
Johnson said should the upcoming discussions between the city and
school district prove fruitful, an
agreement could come as soon as
the end of the year.
Elliott said regardless of the
details of any possible future agreement, the need for more field access
in San Carlos is substantial.
We have a very active young
population, and the demand is
increasing for recreation space, she
said. We need to find out how do
we as a community address that
demand.
Baker said Thursdays conversation could lay the groundwork for a
plan to move forward.
We will have to discuss it and
see where do we go from here, said
Baker.
The San Carlos Elementary
School District Board of Trustees
meets Thursday, Oct. 8, at 1200
Industrial Road, Unit 9B. The meetings begins at 6 p.m.

Huge storm slams South


Carolina; at least 12 killed
By Seanna Adcox

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBIA, S.C. People


across South Carolina got an object
lesson Monday in how you can
dodge a hurricane and still get hammered.
Authorities struggled to get water
to communities swamped by it, and
with waterlogged dams overflowing,
bridges collapsing, hundreds of
roads inundated and floodwaters
rolling down to the coast, the state
was anything but done with this disaster.
This is a Hugo-level event, said
Maj. Gen. Robert Livingston, head
of the South Carolina National
Guard, referring to the September
1989 hurricane that devastated
Charleston. We didnt see this level
of erosion in Hugo. ... This water
doesnt fool around.
Much-feared Hurricane Joaquin
missed the East Coast, but fueled

what experts at the National Oceanic


and Atmospheric Administration
called a fire hose of tropical moisture that aimed directly at the state.
A solid week of rainfall killed at
least 12 people, sent about 1,000 to
shelters and left about 40,000 without drinkable water.
One of latest to die was McArthur
Woods, 56, who drove around a barricade and drowned Sunday night.
His passenger managed to climb on
top of the sedan, which stalled in the
rushing water. A firefighter rescued
her after someone heard her
screams.
She came out the window. How
she got on top of the car and stayed
there like she did with that water
theres a good Lord, Kershaw
County Coroner David West said.
By Monday, the heaviest rains had
moved into the mid-Atlantic states.

alleged home burglary Sunday evening in San
Carlos, San Mateo County sheriffs officials
said.
Deputies arrested Cesar Garcia, 18, of
Redwood City at about 5:45 p.m. in the 100
block of G Street in Redwood City, according
to sheriffs officials.
Garcia was arrested on suspicion of resisting arrest, conspiracy home burglary and on a
warrant for a felony burglary.
Deputies responded at about 5 p.m. to the
alleged burglary at a home near White Oak
Way and Walnut Street, sheriffs officials said.
Witnesses told deputies that the suspects
were last seen fleeing south on Laurel Street
toward Eaton Avenue, according to sheriffs
officials.
Deputies and Redwood City police set up a
perimeter in the area and used K-9 units to try
to find the suspects, sheriffs officials said.
A sheriffs K-9 unit allegedly found Garcia
in a gardening shed at the rear of a home,
according to sheriffs officials.
The other suspect was allegedly last seen
fleeing north on Walnut Street toward
Belmont Avenue, sheriffs officials said.
Deputies are describing the at large suspect
as a Hispanic male in his late teens or early
20s, according to sheriffs officials.
He was last seen wearing a gray Giants
sweatshirt, blue jeans and a gray baseball cap
with a red bill.
Anyone with information about the alleged
burglary is being asked to get in touch with
sheriffs Detective Scott Berberian at (650)
363-4051 or at sberberian@smcgov.org.

Man arrested for stalking woman


A Hillsborough man was arrested early
Saturday morning for entering a womans
home after following her home from a 24Hour Fitness center in San Mateo, according
to the District Attorneys Office.
Patrick Allen Wong, 26, faces charges of
residential burglary, stalking and grand theft.
He pleaded not guilty to the charges Monday.
Wong allegedly tricked a worker at the fitness center to give him the victims phone
number, according to prosecutors.
The 32-year-old woman was in bed just
after midnight when Wong allegedly entered
her room at her San Mateo residence. He fled
but she was able to take down the license plate
number from the vehicle in which he left the
scene.
Police were at the victims residence when
Wong allegedly phoned her. He said he wanted to return the items he had stolen from her
after telling her how beautiful she was,
according to prosecutors.
He was in the parking lot of the 24-Hour
Fitness on Bovet Road when he made the call
and police arrested him shortly after.
Police found the victims keys and laptop in
Wongs possession, according to prosecutors.
The victim had left her keys in the back
door to her residence, according to prosecutors.
His bail was set at $100,000 which he posted Monday.
He is due back in court Oct. 20 for a preliminary hearing.

Teachers, staff and community members volunteered over the weekend of Sept. 25 to give
the San Bruno Park Elementary School District Office a fresh coat of paint to welcome new
Superintendent Cheryl Olson. After some challenging months last year, we wanted to do
something to demonstrate to our new superintendent that we welcome her to San Bruno,
value her leadership, and want to work together as a new team to enhance the legacy of this
district, said Julie Calleja, a teacher in the district who coordinated the effort.

Around the state


Nevada, San Francisco
agree to settle patient dumping suit
CARSON CITY, Nev. Nevada has tentatively agreed to
pay $400,000 to the City and County of San Francisco to settle allegations that the state wrongfully and intentionally bused
psychiatric patients to the city and declined to pay the costs
connected with their care.
The deal, if approved by the Nevada Board of Examiners
and a similar board in San Francisco, is expected to end an
expensive legal battle that has lasted more than two years.
Nevada officials budgeted more than $1.9 million to fight the
lawsuit through the summer; a final tally of the costs wasnt
immediately available.
The settlement will bring an amicable resolution to this
matter, Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval said in a statement.
The settlement will also validate the patient management best
practices and procedures which Nevada has had in place for
two years.

Regulators propose rules


to prevent illegal coordination
SACRAMENTO Californias political watchdog agency
on Monday proposed tougher rules to prevent illegal coordination between political campaigns and outside groups that
can collect unlimited amounts of money.
The Fair Political Practices Commission introduced proposed rules as it says independent expenditures have grown
eight times higher than in 2002, to more than $80 million in
Californias 2014 election cycle.
This makes our already tough regulations ever stronger so
all candidates will be playing by the same rules and that some
campaigns arent able to gain unfair advantage by coordinating their efforts illegally, the commissions chief enforcement
officer, Galena West, said in a statement.
The proposal bans an independent committee from using the
same political consultant as a candidates campaign.

Shots-fired call leads to
DUI arrest in Half Moon Bay
What initially was thought to be a gunshot fired from a car
early Saturday morning in Half Moon Bay was actually a firework set off by a man later arrested on suspicion of drunk driving, according to the San Mateo County Sheriffs Office.
At 3:48 a.m. Saturday, sheriffs deputies responded to
reports of a suspect discharging a firearm outside his vehicle
in the 100 block of Poplar Street, adjacent to Poplar Beach.
Deputies later discovered it was one of the fireworks that
25-year-old Daniel Moran, of Newark, admitted to setting off,
sheriffs officials said.
Deputies also determined he was driving under the influence
of alcohol, sheriffs officials added.
Deputies had identified Morans car as the suspect vehicle
after an interview with the reporting party, sheriffs officials
said.
Moran denied firing a gun, but said he set off fireworks. No
weapons were found in his vehicle, sheriffs officials said.
Because of his alleged intoxication, he was arrested and
taken to First Chance, an alternative to jail for some DUI
cases.

Boehner: House to vote for speaker Oct. 29, other jobs after
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Speaker John


Boehner on Monday scheduled the
House election to replace him for Oct.
29 and delayed votes for lower-level
posts until after that a move widely
seen as benefiting his preferred successor, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
House Republicans, reeling and divid-

ed in the aftermath
of Boehners resignation last month,
had planned to vote
Thursday by secret
ballot for a new leadership team. But a
number of members
wanted more time to
John Boehner weigh their options
and pursue rule
changes.

Under the new plan, Thursdays vote


by Republican members will only
involve their nominee for speaker. That
will be followed by a floor vote in the
full House on Oct. 29.
It will then be up to the new speaker to
set an elections date for lower-level GOP
posts from majority leader on down. The
speaker is the only job in the House thats
voted on by members of both parties in
open session; the other jobs are selected
internally by the party caucuses.

U.S., Chile declare new marine reserves, fight overfishing


By Bradlet Klapper

VALPARAISO President Barack


Obama declared new marine sanctuaries
in Lake Michigan and the tidal waters of
Maryland on Monday, while Chile
blocked off more than 200,000 square
miles of the Pacific Ocean near the
world-famous Easter Island from commercial fishing and oil and gas exploration.
The announcements came as top officials, including U.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry, attended an international
conference on marine protection in the

Chilean port city of Valparaiso. Several


nations also outlined plans for tracing
seafood imports to combat overfishing
and stemming increased pollution in the
ocean.
The new protected waters in the
United States are the first to be designated as such in 15 years, the White House
said in a statement.

area of the tidal Potomac River next to
Charles County. Nearly 200 vessels,
some dating to the Revolutionary War,
are found in the largely undeveloped
area that provides habitat for endangered
species of wildlife and fish.
The actions are the latest in a series of
environmental steps by Obama, who last
year set aside some 400,000 square
miles of the central Pacific Ocean from
commercial fishing, deep sea mining
and other forms of resource extraction.
The Pacific Remote Islands Marine
National Monument is now the largest
marine reserve in the world.

WASHINGTON Having hammered out an ambitious trade


deal with 11 Pacific Rim countries, the Obama administration
now faces a potentially tougher task: selling the deal to a skeptical Congress.
The countries reached a contentious trade pact Monday that
cuts trade barriers, sets labor and environmental standards and
protects multinational corporations intellectual property after
marathon negotiating sessions in Atlanta through the weekend.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership is designed to encourage trade
between the United States, Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile,
Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and
Vietnam. Together, the countries account for 40 percent of
world economic output.
We think it helps define the rules of the road for the AsiaPacific region, said U.S. Trade Rep. Michael Froman.
For President Barack Obama, the trade deal is a major victory on a centerpiece of his international agenda.
Obama has pursued the pact against the objections of many
lawmakers in his own Democratic Party and instead forged rare
consensus with Republicans.
Trade unions and other critics say the deal will expose
American workers to foreign competition and cost jobs. Given
the opposition, the pacts fate in Congress is at best uncertain,
said Lori Wallach, a leading TPP critic and director of Public
Citizens Global Trade Watch.
Obama has cast the agreement as good for Americans workers and crucial to countering China and expanding U.S. influence in the Asia-Pacific.
This partnership levels the playing field for our farmers,
ranchers, and manufacturers by eliminating more than 18,000
taxes that various countries put on our products, Obama said in
a statement. It includes the strongest commitments on labor
and the environment of any trade agreement in history, and
those commitments are enforceable, unlike in past agreements.
The president has to wait 90 days before signing the pact, and
only then will Congress begin the process of voting on it.
As a result, a vote on the TPP likely will not happen until well
into 2016, where it is likely to get ensnarled in the politics of a
presidential election year. Congress can only give the deal an
up-or-down vote. It cant amend the agreement.
Many of the tariff reductions and other changes will be
phased in over several years, so benefits to the U.S. economy
could take time to materialize.
Peter Petri, a professor of international finance at Brandeis
University, says he doesnt expect the deal to lead to any U.S.
job gains. But he forecasts it will boost U.S. incomes by $77 billion a year, or 0.4 percent, by 2025, mostly by creating exportoriented jobs that will pay more, even as other jobs are lost.
Another target for opponents was drug companies efforts to
protect some of their products from cheaper foreign competition.
U.S. drug makers wanted 12 years of protection from competitors for biologics ultra-expensive medicines produced in
living cells.

Mandelkern, Schwarz, Talansky for community college board


Editorial
Daily Journal

ith seven candidates for


three seats on the San
Mateo County Community
College District Board of Trustees,
there is certainly no shortage of opinions on the board that runs each of the
countys community colleges
Caada College in Redwood City,
College of San Mateo and Skyline
College in San Bruno.
The district has completely revamped
their campuses recently with more
work being scheduled because of several countywide bond issues. Each candidate is pleased with the changes,
though one has concerns about accessibility for all. For the most part, the candidates believe the bond money is well
spent and take pride in the new appearance of the three colleges.
Of the candidates, Dave Mandelkern
rises to the top with his expansive
knowledge of the districts nances,
courses and the need to be nimble to
stay relevant and interesting for the students who make their way to the top of
the hill. Mandelkern has 12 years as
trustee under his belt and shows no
signs of slowing down. When the district was facing budget cuts because of
the Great Recession and cuts from
Sacramento, Mandelkern was there to
make sure ofcials made the right
choices in ensuring the colleges curriculum best served not only traditional
students, but those who found their way
back to school for additional training.
He is also keenly aware of maintaining
the districts outreach to underserved
areas to provide educational opportunities for all.
Karen Schwarz was also there to
make sure the cuts were managed prop-

erly and has a strong sense of what it


takes to ensure the district best serves
the community. Though she toyed with
the idea of stepping down after 20
years on the board, she decided she was
not quite done and wants to continue
for another four years. She has a rm
grip on the districts offerings and
wants to continue to nd ways to make
sure it is affordable including assistance with the cost of books and
accessible with efforts to bring
classes off the hill and into various
communities.
Alan Talansky is a newcomer to politics but has experience on the districts
bond oversight committee as well as in
the business community. He is lively
and smart with good ideas including
ways to get more students to the three
campuses. They include a shuttle service and providing credits to the bookstore for those who share rides to any
of the campuses. Bringing students to
the campuses builds life and vigor there
and makes the experience more collegiate, he said.
Maurice Goodman also has good
ideas and has experience with the colleges and its student government. His
current role as trustee on the South San
Francisco Unied School District board
also provides him with some experience in local governance. However, the
South San Francisco district is going
through a transitional period with a new
superintendent and is coming out of
some troubles with how its bonds were
managed. It would be better for

Locals should stick to local issues Stop raising taxes
Editor,

Not sure why Sue Lempert wrote
Republican Debate II in the Sept. 28
edition of the Daily Journal. She does
not have a dog in this ght. Her low
opinions of Republican candidates do
not matter. We all know she is a
Democrat and will not be part of the
selection process. Only registered
Republicans can vote in the Republican
Primary. In fact, it is very unlikely that
California will have any say on who
the nominee is for either party because
the nominees will most likely be determined prior to the California primary.
Lempert should stick to local issues.
We all may not agree with your views,

What binds us together

orld-renowned poet John Donne once said that


no man is an island entire of itself. This symbolizes the belief that the whole of humanity is
inextricably linked with one another our lives, our moral
consciousness and our fate. The notion that no man is an
island is proved time and again in the face of even the most
devastating circumstances.
The deep sentiments expressed
in Donnes parable come to mind
when I think of actual and foretold events that awaken us to a
truth that we often forget that
we are one human race. We are
each bound to the same ultimate
fate.
For centuries, human beings
have looked to events that symbolized the inevitable end of
humanity, Earth and our universe
entirely. Take the recent Blood
Jonathan Madison
Moon, for example. Ancient and
dogmatic beliefs predicted that the Blood Moon of Sept. 2728, 2015, would symbolize the end of our world as we
knew it. Although I found it hard to believe that a lunar
eclipse would mark the end of my days on this Earth, I felt
more self-aware about my place in the larger scale of
humanity.
The Blood Moon of September was certainly not the rst
false apocalyptic prediction that foreshadowed the end of
the human race.
Our transition to the new millennium in 2000 was marked
by several visions and predictions of the end of the world.
Those predictions were met with real events that generated
panic among people in and beyond our nation, such as the
Internet bubble and the millennium computer phenomena
known as Y2K. Grocery store proprietors, in some cases,
extorted record prots from the fear of those panicked by
the prospects of a life without crucial supplies in the event
of a catastrophe. Similar fears emerged in 2012 as a result
of similar ancient doomsday predictions that fortunately
turned out to be false.
The awareness of such events is, of course, reected in
our mainstream media and entertainment. Movies such as
2012, The Terminator, I Am Legend, the Book of
Eli, and many others mark differing accounts of what a
judgment day would look like.
In the wake of such events, behind the thunderous storms
of turbulent and pervasive fear, lies an unwavering desire to
preserve the human spirit. Preserving the human spirit has
the means to motivate us to collectively rise above mass
panic. Indeed, we have seen the power of that collective
emergence in nearly every catastrophic event known to
man.
Those of us along the San Andreas Fault who experienced
the 1989 earthquake know far too well the unity that often
emerges in the wake of disaster. Thousands of residents
throughout Californias northern region for a moment
seemed to forget their trivial societal differences long
enough to assist those who had been affected by disaster.
The California residents devastated by the wildres in
San Joaquin County two weeks ago witnessed the same
compassion from neighboring residents that sacriced their
time to lend a loving hand.
Such unity in the face of terror was most evident in the
wake of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. One-hundred-and-fty members of Congress Republicans and
Democrats stood united on the Capitol steps that fateful
day, chanting our patriotic hymn God Bless America in
the face of grievance and terror. This unity was also manifested in the countless stories of rst responders who ran
toward the burning buildings to save lives. In many cases, it
meant sacricing their own for the greater good.
Also, consider the worlds response to the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. World leaders, educational institutions and
nonprot organizations came together to assist the Haitian
people in a critical moment of need. Reconstruction efforts
are ongoing.
Consider one of the single largest demonstrations of unity
in the global ght against terrorism in the wake of 17 lives
lost in terrorist strikes perpetrated by the al-Qaida terrorist
group on the satirical publication Charlie Hebdo in Paris.
The movement was spearheaded by 1.6 million people,
including 40 world leaders, that marched together united
on the promise of the preservation of the human spirit.
The responses to such events remind us that we are inextricably bound to the same fate. We defeat doomsday theorists and forces that attempt to divide us when we cast aside
the social norms we are accustomed to and come together to
help the strangers among us toward a better future. Beneath
the vast illusive differences that drive us apart lies the root
of our greatest strength the intangible love that has the
means to bind us together.

place since the 2008 financial crisis have
helped drive stock prices higher.
It seems clear that investors have
decided that the Federal Reserve cannot
raise rates at its October meeting and
probably cannot raise rates for longer
than that, said Kristina Hooper, head of
investment strategies for the U.S. at
Allianz Global Investors.
Hooper pointed to the trading of Fed
fund futures, which are securities that
bet on which way the Fed will move
interest rates. Those futures now indicate that investors expect the most likely
timing for the next rate increase is
March 2016.
Whether the Fed agrees with investors
remains to be seen. Fed officials, including Janet Yellen, have said the central
bank is looking to start raising rates this
year. On Thursday, investors will get the
minutes from the Feds September meeting, which should provide insight into
where Fed policymakers stand.
Mondays gains were broad. Higher
energy prices pushed oil and gas stocks
to gains. U.S. crude gained 72 cents to
close at $46.26 a barrel in New York.
Brent Crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U.S. refineries,
rose $1.12 to close at $49.25 a barrel in
London.

The energy sector of the S&P 500


gained 2.9 percent, much more than the
rest of the market.
Dow member General Electric rose
$1.35, or 5.3 percent, to $26.82 after
activist investor Nelson Peltz disclosed
he had accumulated a $2.5 billion stake
in GE. Peltz is likely to put more pressure on GEs CEO Jeffrey Immelt to
raise the companys stock price, which
has lingered around $25-$26 a share for
the last two years.
Alphabet Inc., the new parent company of Google, rose $14.69, or 2.2 percent, to $671.68. Google announced earlier this year that it would reorganize.
Alphabet will be the parent company,
with Google being the largest subsidiary.
This would allow investors to see how
well Googles core business was doing,
separately from its more experimental
ventures like driverless cars. Monday
was the first day the company started
trading as Alphabet.
Twitter jumped $1.84, or 7 percent, to
$28.15 after the company said it was
moving its co-founder Jack Dorsey into
the CEO position full-time. Dorsey had
been interim CEO since June.
U.S. government bond prices fell. The
yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose

Twitter gives co-founder Jack


Dorsey second chance as CEO
By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Twitter is embracing


Jack Dorsey as its CEO in hopes that its oncespurned co-founder can hatch a plan to
expand the short messaging services audience and end nearly a decade of financial
losses.
The hiring revealed Monday in a regulatory
filing ends Twitters three-month search for a
new leader. It marks Dorseys second stint as
CEO since he helped start the San Francisco
company more than nine years ago with Evan
Williams, Biz Stone and Noah Glass.
Twitter dumped Dorsey his first time
around, but its board of directors is now convinced he has the maturity and expertise to fix
the problems that have caused the companys
stock to lose nearly half its value in the past
five months.

As a founder and
inventor of the product,
Jack knows more about
Twitter than anyone else,
said Peter Currie, the
Twitter director who led
the search for a new CEO.
Investors applauded the
move as Twitters stock
Jack Dorsey surged $1.84, or 7 percent, to close at $28.15.
Dorsey, 38, has already had dress rehearsal
for the job, having become Twitters interim
CEO in July after former stand-up comedian
and veteran entrepreneur Dick Costolo
stepped down amid shareholder discontent.
Costolo is relinquishing his seat on Twitters
board now that Dorsey is permanent CEO.
Twitter had considered its chief revenue
officer, Adam Bain, and several other CEO
candidates before settling on Dorsey.

U.S. services growth slows in


September as orders plunge
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Growth in the U.S.


services sector slowed in September as sales
fell and new orders plunged, evidence that
stock market volatility may have hit consumer
confidence and limited spending.
The Institute for Supply Management said
Monday that its services index fell to 56.9 last
month from 59 in August, which was the second-highest reading in a decade. Any reading
above 50 signals expansion.

A measure of sales fell to 60.2, still a


healthy reading, from 63.9. A gauge of new
orders, however, dropped nearly 7 points to
56.7. That suggests sales growth may continue to cool in the coming months.
The survey still points to solid sales and
growth for services firms, including retailers,
hotels, banks and other financial services
companies. More than 8 million Americans
have found jobs in the past three years, lifting
their ability to spend on restaurant meals,
clothes and vacations.

Supreme Court rejects San Jose appeal over As move


By Janie McCauley

Listen, itd be great to have a new facility,


said Billy Beane, the As executive vice president of baseball operations. The facts are the
facts. We do our best with what we have.
Major League Baseball declined to comment
on the courts decision.
Giants CEO Larry Baer didnt want to
address the ruling specifically other than to
say: We support the As getting a new ballpark. Weve said that before.
San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo suggested the
city was moving on without the As and a new
stadium close to downtown and would turn its
attention to developing the areas.
We knew going into this litigation that
getting a hearing before the U.S. Supreme
Court would be a long shot the Court

hears only a couple dozen out of the more


than 2,000 petitions it receives each year,
Liccardo said.
Liccardo noted that the city didnt spend any
money on legal fees fighting the issue in
court. Private lawyers who represented the
city were to get paid only if they won in court.
Oakland shortstop Marcus Semien, for one,
didnt mind. He grew up in the East Bay in
nearby El Cerrito.
Thats great. This is where I grew up, he
said Monday while cleaning out his locker at
the Oakland Coliseum. I grew up here in the
East Bay and feel this is home. This is home
for the As.

Athletes of the Week

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

By Chris Biderman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Bronx Bombers once had the M&M


Boys. The Carlmont Scots now have
Morrow and McClellan.
Carlmonts M&M Girls senior middle
blocker Alexis Morrow and sophomore outside hitter Maya McClellan have their
team on quite a tear. The Scots have won 10
straight matches, including their biggest victory of the year last Thursday against Aragon.
McClellan produced one of the best performances of her varsity career in the four-set
win, hammering 17 kills. Morrow added 14
kills and turned in an array of defensive gems
with six blocks. For leading the Scots to a 40 start in Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division play, the M&M Girls have been
named the Daily Journal Athletes of the Week.
For McClellan, emerging as a sophomore
is reminiscent of Morrows varsity start two
years ago. Now a third-year senior, the 6foot Morrow was promoted in 2013 along
with fellow middle blocker Sabrina Miller.
They were not experienced volleyball
players yet at that point, but they were tall
and springy and long, Carlmont head coach
Chris Crader said. Thats what you look for
in a middle.
The two developed into quite a tandem last
season, helping the Scots to their sixth consecutive Central Coast Section playoff berth
and their first postseason win since 2011.
Miller is a year older than Morrow, however,
and graduated after the 2014 season.
Fortunately for the Scots, they had
McClellan waiting in the wings.
While the Scots had been stacked at middle
blocker, they didnt have a prototypical terminator at the outside hitter. No offense to
current seniors Mia Hogan and Alex Lay,
who anchored the outside last year, but neither owned the explosive prowess equated
with a regular double-figure kill threat.
So, after a year of serving as a backup,
McClellan claimed the starting role this season. She was the only freshman on the team
last year for a reason. And Crader had high

14 kills. Then Thursday in a sweep of Harker,
Stewart led the charge with 20 kills.

In McClellan and Morrow, the Scots now


have a dangerous one-two punch. Add to the
mix senior opposite hitter Elena Mateus,
Hogans consistent presence countering the
left side, and Lay moving back to middle
blocker, Carlmont boasts a prolific balance
across the front line.
Off the court, both Morrow and McClellan
are fairly easy going. On the court, their
attitudes actually dont differ all too much.
Its as if they prefer to keep attitude from
interfering with their sharp, consistent
skills and outstanding athleticism.
Ive always been more complacent and

quiet, Morrow said. But this year, I wanted to take on more of a leadership role.
And so she has. It wasnt easy for
McClellan to make the varsity leap as a
freshman last season. Crader said there no
question the 5-10 McClellan belonged. But
McClellan, herself, wasnt so sure.
At times, I thought I should have just
played J. V. and played all the time,
McClellan said. Now, looking back, I realize it was a really good opportunity for me.
Now, Morrow looks out for her younger
teammate. As McClellan conducted a 1-on-1
interview last Thursday following the win

over Aragon, Morrow stood close by, offering


constant head-nods and smiles as if to reassure
McClellan she was deserving of the spotlight.
Morrow knows as well as anyone what its
like to be the quiet sophomore. Now, shes
thinking big. Forget baseball and the M&M
Boys. Morrow, a lifelong basketball fan, is
more down with the Splash Brothers after
watching her Golden State Warriors win the
NBA Championship last season. And now
shes looking to do the same.
When they won the championship, it
fueled my drive for the Carlmont season
even more, Morrow said.

Late mistakes cost Raiders dearly in loss to Bears


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA For coach Jack Del Rio, the


latest loss for the Oakland Raiders really
boiled down to two plays.
Sure there were a couple of unforced
turnovers by Latavius Murray, a blown coverage that left another tight end wide open
in the end zone and a handful of other crucial
plays throughout the game.
But if Oakland had either converted a
third-and-2 just before the two-minute warning or stopped Chicago on a fourth-and-5
on the ensuing drive, the Raiders (3-1)
would be heading into this weeks showdown with Denver with a shot to move into
first-place in the AFC West.
We had our opportunities there, Del Rio
said Monday. We feel like we prepared
well. We didnt quite execute the way we
wanted and came up a little bit short.
The first key play came on the Raiders
final drive. After an interception by Charles
Woodson thwarted a Chicago scoring

total yards, with 47 coming on a long pass
to Smith in the fourth quarter. However, that
catch didnt lead to points as San Francisco
wound up turning the ball over on downs.
My body language was horrible at times.
I should never let my frustrations show,
especially to (reporters), Smith said.
Thats not a good thing. Ill work at that.
... To be honest, we work too hard to go out
on Sundays and play like that. (Coach Jim)
Tomsula doesnt deserve this. The fans dont
deserve to watch the way we play.
Smith, who signed a five-year deal that
could be worth as much as $40 million, has
nine receptions for 185 yards in four games.
His lone touchdown catch came in the second half of a blowout loss to the Pittsburgh
Steelers in Week 2.
When you work like we do, we work
hard, success has to come, Smith said. It
hasnt been coming, but it just has to happen. Just stick by that belief and hope we
can get this thing going.
Tomsula said, We need to use him and we
need to get him more involved. Thats on
the checklist.
The Packers defense was intent on stopping the run by keeping safeties close to
the line of scrimmage. Running back

ries in his first home game since running
for 168 yards and two touchdowns in the
season-opening win over the Minnesota
Vikings.
Kaepernick was the teams leading rusher,
netting 57 yards on 10 carries. Running
back Reggie Bush returned after a two-game
absence with a calf injury, registering one
run for no gain.
The 49ers were unable to take advantage
of Green Bays game plan by utilizing
Smiths speed, with Kaepernick completing
just one of seven throws that went longer
than 10 yards.
Kaepernicks 67.7 passer rating through
four games is the lowest since he became
the full-time starter midway through the
2012 season, when he led San Francisco to
the Super Bowl.
We have to find our rhythm, Kaepernick
said Sunday. We have to get back on track
and string plays together. When we do that,
we have produced successful drives. Its getting those plays to string together where
weve struggled thus far.
Tomsula said Monday that wide receiver
Quinton Patton suffered a concussion
Sunday and is going through the leaguemandated concussion protocol. Theres no
timetable on his return.
Patton had the 49ers second-longest play
of the game Sunday when he took a shovel
pass from Kaepernick and ran 40 yards up
the left sideline in the second quarter, setting up a 33-yard Phil Dawson field goal.
San Francisco is at the New York Giants
(2-2) on Sunday.

That set up another third-and-2 from the


Chicago 22 with just under three minutes
remaining and Oakland trailing 19-17. Del
Rio opted for another run in hopes of converting the first down or running out more
time if it was unsuccessful. Pernell McPhee
beat rookie tight end Clive Walford at the
line and hit Helu for a 1-yard loss.
Sebastian Janikowski converted the 41yard field goal to give the Raiders a 20-19
lead but the Bears had 2:05 remaining to get
the winning score.
You can always second-guess the call,
whether its run or pass, Del Rio said. It
was definitely there, if we executed the play.
But we also have to give 92 some credit.
Hes a game-wrecker kind of guy.
The Raiders still had a chance when the
Bears faced a fourth-and-5 with 1:30 to play
on their first series of downs. But Bears quarterback Jay Cutler found Martellus Bennett for
a 7-yard gain to extend the drive. Four more
completions and a short run by Matt Forte set
up Robbie Goulds 49-yard field goal to win it
and sent the Raiders regrouping.

Its a loss, Woodson said after the


game. Theyre all hard to swallow. It is
what it is. We got a tough, tough game coming up. You cant dwell on this one too
long, because the week gets on you fast.
Itll be time to get back to work.
There were a few key plays earlier, most
notably the two turnovers by Murray. The
first came in the second quarter when Murray
bobbled a pass right into McPhees hands.
Then in the fourth quarter, Murray dropped
an easy pitch from Carr for a fumble.
Murray did not play the final drive and took
the blame for the loss after the game. Del Rio
said he still has confidence in his young back.
The other frustrating play for the Raiders
was Bennetts 5-yard TD catch in the second
quarter when he was left all alone in the corner of the end zone. The Raiders had placed
a priority on shutting down tight ends after
allowing five TD catches to them the first
three weeks.
For the season, opposing tight ends have
32 catches for 388 yards and six touchdowns in four games.

Torres was hit with the longest suspension in
NHL history for a hit on another player when
the league banned him Monday for the first
41 games of the season for an illegal check to
the head of Anaheims Jakob Silfverberg.
This marks the fifth and most significant
suspension for Torres in his career. His previous longest ban had been a 21-game suspension initially 25 games for a high
hit on Chicagos Marian Hossa in the first
round of the playoffs in 2012 when he played
with Phoenix.
Torres has until Wednesday to decide
whether to appeal the suspension. The

Sharks had no comment on the punishment


and Torres agent did not immediately
respond to an email seeking comment.
Torres was suspended for the final six
games of the playoffs in 2013 with San Jose
for a hit to the head against Los Angeles
Jarret Stoll. Torres was also suspended for
two games in January 2012 for charging
Minnesota defenseman Nate Prosser, and he
sat out four games in April 2011 for a hit to
the head of Edmontons Jordan Eberle while
playing for Vancouver.
The previous longest suspension for
player-on-player violence was a 30-game
suspension to Chris Simon of the New
York Islanders in December 2007 for
stomping on the skate of Pittsburgh forward Jarkko Ruutu.

Another disappointing odd year for oft-injured Giants


By Janie McCauley

Crawfords breakout year

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The


defending
champion
Giants
missed the playoffs in yet another
odd-year disappointment, as has
become the recent pattern following title runs.
Despite that, manager Bruce
Bochy is about as proud of this club
as he was the teams that won three
World Series championships in the
previous five years.
Its a year Im probably as proud
of sure, youd like to win the
World Series that theyve hung in
there with all thats been dealt to
them, Bochy said. I dont think
theres a team in modern baseball
thats had its backs against the wall
as much as this club.
The Giants (84-78) dealt with
injuries at nearly every position,
including all three outfield spots.
From new left fielder Nori Aoki to
center fielder Angel Pagan and
even a lingering oblique injury for
typically durable right fielder
Hunter Pence, who missed the
entire stretch run.
First baseman Brandon Belt ended
a second straight season with a concussion, which also afflicted outfielder Gregor Blanco and infielder
Ehire Adrianza. Second baseman Joe

RICK OSENTOSKI/USA TODAY SPORTS

While Crawford overcame his


own injury issues, he hit a teambest 21 home runs to become the
first shortstop to lead the Giants
in home runs for a season since
Bill Dahlen in 1905 with seven.
San Francisco also received big
contributions from rookies Matt
Duffy, Kelby Tomlinson and
Jarrett Parker, to name a few who
Bochy said, arent playing like
rookies and pitcher Chris
Heston, who pitched a no-hitter
against the Mets on June 9.

Brandon Crawford surprised with a


team-best 21 home runs in 2015.

Pagan surgery

Panik was limited to 100 games


because of a bad back, while shortstop Brandon Crawford also missed
time, leaving Bochy with a patchwork lineup at best for much of the
second half.
Then there was the pitching staff,
where Jake Peavy was injured early,
and Matt Cain and Tim Hudson
banged up throughout.
And the Giants were still in contention into the seasons final week
before watching the rival Los
Angeles Dodgers capture their third
straight NLWest crown at AT&T Park.
We dont want to keep up with
them, we want to pass them, general manager Bobby Evans said.

Pagan will undergo an arthroscopic cleanup surgery on his


right knee Tuesday.
Next year is the last on the $40
million, four-year deal he received
in December 2012.
The Giants decision on Aokis
$5. 5 million club option will
likely weigh Pagans projected
health. Pagan also had back surgery in 2014.

Cains rebound
The Giants consider Cain a member
of the rotation heading into 2016
after he missed time with further
elbow troubles early on this year.
The right-hander was limited to 11

starts and 13 appearances after making just 15 starts last season before
season-ending elbow surgery.

Lincecums rehab
Evans isnt ready to project where
right-hander Tim Lincecum might fit
next season after he recovers from
left hip surgery. The two-time NL Cy
Young Award winner is due to
become a free agent, but would like
to re-sign with the team he has
known his entire career.

Farewell to Huddy and Affeldt


Lefty reliever Jeremy Affeldt and
right-hander Tim Hudson said their
formal farewells during the seasonending series this past weekend
and will head off into retirement
after 14 and 17 years in the majors,
respectively.
Affeldt was part of all three recent
title teams in 2010, 12 and last
year while the 40-year-old
Hudson earned his first championship ring last fall.
Regarding Mike Leake, Evans said
theres mutual interest in re-signing
the pending free agent, but it might
not happen immediately.
Were open-minded, Evans said.
The rotation will have to be
addressed.
Ryan Vogelsong also becomes a
free agent.

general manager Monday and elevated Billy Beane to executive vice
president of baseball operations.
Long overdue, Beane said of
Forsts promotion.
Forst just completed his 16th
years with the low-budget franchise and 12th as assistant GM,
though Beane insists his righthand man has been assuming general manager duties behind the
scenes for some time. Forst has
been committed to keeping his
young family in the Bay Area and
staying with an organization he

loves despite
the
daunting
challenges.
Beane, who

Beane quipped.
Its a well-deserved recognition
and promotion from Davids end,
Beane said a day after Oakland finished an AL-worst 68-94 after
three straight years in the playoffs. This makes public how we
were operating.
Beane and Forst have regularly
split up their duties in such a way that
Forst has better relationships with

Billy brought me in and from Day 1

Nationals fire
Matt Williams
By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In describing
what he will look for in a manager
to replace Matt Williams,
Washington Nationals GM Mike
Rizzo might have been pointing
out
exactly
what he felt
went
wrong
with the man he
hired two years
ago and fired
Monday.
Williams, of
course, did not,
but he had a hisMatt Williams tory
with
Rizzo. And while Williams was
voted NL Manager of the Year for
his rookie season in 2014, he is
now out of a job because the
Nationals failed to make the playoffs after entering the season with
World Series aspirations.
Washington finished the regular
season barely above .500 at 8379, seven games behind the New
York Mets in the NL East.
The Nationals also said they will
not renew the contracts of the
seven members of Williams staff,
including pitching coach Steve
McCatty.
better man, father and player.
Sabathia is 214-129 in 15
major league seasons and was 610 with a 4.73 ERA this year,
slowed by his surgically repaired
right knee. After returning from
the disabled list and using a
tighter brace, the 300-pound-plus
pitcher was 2-1 with a 2.17 ERA
in his last five starts. He got the
win against Boston last week that
clinched the Yankees return to
the postseason following a rare
two-year absence.
General
manager
Brian
Cashman, along with the players
and Girardi, would not elaborate
on who was involved in helping
Sabathia inform the team and
come to the decision that he needed immediate help.
But Cashman did say that it wasnt one incident that affected the
timing of the decision, and that no
one asked the six-time All-Star to
put it off until after the postseason.

Israeli prime minister vows strong


action against Palestinian unrest
By Ian Deitch
and Mohammed Daraghmeh
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM Israeli Prime Minister


Benjamin Netanyahu warned Monday that he
will use a strong hand to quell violent
Palestinian protests and deadly attacks, signaling that the current round of violence is bound
to escalate at a time when a political solution
to the conflict is increasingly distant.
Netanyahu said he has sent thousands more
soldiers and police to the West Bank and Arab
neighborhoods of Jerusalem and that we are
allowing our forces to take strong action
against those who throw rocks and firebombs. He said restrictions limiting what
security forces can do were being lifted, but
did not elaborate.
Netanyahus warnings came after a rash of
violence that began Thursday when
Palestinian gunmen killed an Israeli couple in
their car near a settlement in the West Bank as
their four children watched. Two days later, a
Palestinian stabbed an Israeli man to death
and seriously wounded his wife as they
walked in Jerusalems Old City, then attacked
and killed another Israeli man.

NATO denounces Russia


for violating Turkish airspace
ANKARA, Turkey In a signal of new
tensions raised by Moscows airstrikes in
Syria, NATO denounced Russia on Monday
for irresponsible behavior after its warplanes violated Turkish airspace, and Turkey
warned that any future aerial intruder would
be treated like an enemy.
Turkey, a NATO member, mentioned only
one Russian intrusion over the weekend, but
the military alliance said a second Russian jet
also violated Turkish airspace Sunday.
The intrusions, which come amid deep suspicions and mutual distrust between Moscow

Israeli forces, meanwhile, killed two suspected


Palestinian assailants over
the weekend and on
Monday shot dead two

one of them a 13-year-old
boy, in West Bank clashes.

steel pellets in the West
Bank and Jerusalem on Monday, the Red
Crescent said.
The spike in attacks and clashes comes at a
time of mounting Palestinian frustration.
After years of diplomatic paralysis, many
have lost hope in the chance of setting up a
state in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east
Jerusalem, lands Israel captured in 1967.
Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas has not
offered an alternative to failed negotiations,
except to urge the international community to
intervene, so far to little avail. President
Barack Obama made no mention of the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict in his speech to the
U.N. General Assembly last week, an omission noted by the Palestinians.

and the West over Russias military action in
Syria, highlight the potential for clashes
between Russian and allied forces in the
increasingly crowded skies over Syria.
Russia sought to play down the incident.
Defense Ministry spokesman Maj.-Gen. Igor
Konashenkov said the jet accidentally entered
Turkish airspace for several seconds
Saturday while returning to its base about 30
kilometers (20 miles) south of the border with
Turkey. He said the violation happened due to
poor weather in the area, which forced the
pilot to approach the base from the north.

Iraq kill 56 and wound dozens
By Qassim Abdul-Zahra
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD A series of car bombings


across Iraq Monday killed at least 56 people
and wounded dozens as the government continued its efforts to combat extremism across
the country.
The largest bombing took place in the
Shiite-majority town of al-Khales in Iraqs
eastern Diyala province. At least 32 people
were killed in the attack and 58 were wounded when the car bomb tore through a commercial street, a police official said.
In July, Diyala was the scene of one of the
deadliest attacks on Iraqi soil in almost a
decade when a suicide bomber with the
Islamic State group attacked a crowded marketplace, killing 115 people, including women
and children. The province, parts of which

were previously under the Islamic State


groups rule, has been the scene of multiple
attacks in recent months prompting antigovernment protests, with citizens demanding
tougher security measures.
Meanwhile, in Iraqs southern Basra
province, a senior security official said a car
bomb exploded in the busy commercial district of a suburb near the city killing 10 people. Jabar al-Saadi, head of security for Basra
province, said the bombing happened in the
town of al-Zubair Monday, 50 kilometers (31
miles) southwest of Basra. At least 25 people
were wounded in the attack.
In the capital, Baghdad, police said at least
14 people were killed and 25 wounded when a
car bomb exploded in the northeastern neighborhood of Husseiniya.
Hospital officials corroborated the death
tolls.

Study finds potential problem in more heart valve implants


By Marilynn Marchione
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Doctors have discovered a potential problem involving implanted heart valves that
hundreds of thousands of people have
received they dont always open and close
properly, possibly because a blood clot has
formed that could raise the risk of stroke.
Although the problem appears common,
experts stressed that not enough is known
about the situation to change practice now,
and federal health officials say the valves still
seem safe and well worth the risk.
But its bound to be unsettling for people
with bioprosthetic aortic valves, ones made
from cow, pig or human tissue. They have
become more popular than mechanical ones
made from synthetic materials because they
dont require lifelong use of blood thinners to
prevent blood clots. Some tissue valves also
can be placed through tubes into blood vessels
rather than in open-heart surgery, which has
allowed far more people in recent years to
have bad valves fixed.
The safety concern emerged last year in a
study testing a tube-placed valve. Scans on

two patients, including one who had a stroke,


revealed that their valves were not working
right.
Dr. Raj Makkar, the doctor at Cedars-Sinai
Heart Institute in Los Angeles leading the
study, wanted to know how widespread this
was. In a report published Monday by the
New England Journal of Medicine, he and
others say the problem has now been found in
22 of 55 (40 percent) of patients in the study,
and in 17 of 132 (13 percent) of patients in
two registries tracking tissue valve recipients.
The initial study was testing a valve from
St. Jude Medical, but the problem has now
been seen in other brands too, and with valves
implanted surgically, not just those placed
through tubes. That suggests the issue could
affect many people, although its unknown if
the risk is just soon after the implant or lasts
longer.
Six of the 187 patients had a stroke or
mini-stroke, and that was slightly more
likely among those whose valves were not
moving properly, but the numbers are too
small to be conclusive.
Few valve recipients were on blood thinners, but those taking warfarin, sold as

Coumadin and other brands, seemed protected from the problem, and warfarin also successfully treated it.
Dr. David R. Holmes Jr. of the Mayo Clinic,
who wrote a commentary in the journal with
another heart specialist, said the new report
raises important questions, including how
long the risk lasts, whether its due to clots or
something else, and whether its more common with tube versus surgically placed
valves. Doctors need to know who to monitor
and how, and what to do if they find a problem.
A key question is whether a problem seen in
scans makes a difference in health, because
patients do pretty well with these valves,
Holmes said. The stroke risk was still very
low and doesnt track with how common the
motion problem is, he said.
Makkar said patients who recently received
a tissue valve can talk with their doctors and
see if imaging is being offered to check for
the problem it is at his hospital.
These devices are life-saving, Makkar
said. The worst thing that could happen is
that people get the wrong idea and are afraid
to have a valve fixed.

FIGHT
Continued from page 1
and a march on the Spieker-owned property in
Redwood City.
The group contends escalating rents have
caused an unprecedented housing crisis in the
region that is forcing poor people out of the
area.
Some of the tenants at the Terrace Capri did
say their rents were low compared to other
communities.
Rents are up in the county by 50 percent in
four years to an average of more than $2,500 a
month for a one-bedroom apartment.
And according to the Housing Leadership
Council, in the last three years, the county has
increased employment by 40,000 workers but
only built 3,000 new homes. The shortage of
housing causes horrible traffic, makes recruitment and retention for local businesses difficult,
and is driving up rents across the county.
Many low-wage earners can no longer afford
to live in the county while a new glut of hightech workers and other professionals can.
But one of the tenants at the Terrace Capri is
a high-tech worker.
Joseph Brown is a video game maker who
was born and raised in Redwood City. He pays
less than $1,300 a month for a one-bedroom
apartment.
Tech workers, too, need to live somewhere,
Brown said.
He has started to look around for somewhere
else to live but said its almost pointless considering the lack of housing, not just affordable, in
the area.

was born and raised, Brown said about
Redwood City. His mother also lives in the
complex and he helps pay some of her bills.
Another tenant, Paul Beech, has lived at
Terrace Capri with his wife and son for three
years. The family is dealing with some medical
issues and the bills have become a nightmare,
Beech said.
As soon as the building was sold, a notice
was sent to tenants that they would have to start
paying for water and garbage.
Beech, a personal trainer, and his family need
more time to relocate.
He is willing to stay in his home and force

ownership to get a court order to force him out.


The family even had to resort to asking for
donations for a surgery his wife needs that
insurance will not cover.
Once the building was sold, tenants said
workers descended on the property quickly
without warning. The gate that encloses the
community is now open all day while some of
the renovations get underway. Each unit is having a washer and dryer installed and new
kitchen cabinets.
Tenants, however, were not given notice that
the work would start. There is no longer a property manager on site, they said.

be able to consider the options afforded by this


bill, the governor wrote in a signing statement
that accompanied his signature.
The 77-year-old Democratic governor said he
would not deny those comforts to others.
The statement was Browns first comment on
the bill, which makes California the fifth state to
allow terminally ill patients to use doctor-prescribed drugs to end their lives. The measure
applies only to mentally sound people and not
those who are depressed or impaired.

State lawmakers passed the bill last month. A


previous version failed earlier this year despite
the highly publicized case of Brittany Maynard,
a 29-year-old California woman with brain cancer who moved to Oregon to end her life. The
measure was brought back as part of a special
session intended to address funding shortfalls
for Medi-Cal, the states health insurance program for the poor. The law cannot take effect
until the session formally ends, which probably
will not happen until at least mid-2016.

We should be paying less rent while they


renovate, Beech said.
Beech and Brown said ownership is likely
forcing people out in waves rather than all at
once to keep them from organizing.
They are hoping we dont stand up, Brown
said.
Daniel Saver, a lawyer with Community
Legal Services in East Palo Alto, said its a new
tactic property owners are using to avoid bad
publicity.
Effectuating evictions in waves like this is
a new trend that weve identified during the last
few months, Saver wrote in an email. We
believe it is designed to avoid setting off a collective response from residents and the consequent PR nightmare like at 910 Clinton.
Residents at 910 Clinton St. in Redwood City
were evicted for renovations and Saver helped
negotiate relocation assistance for them from
new ownership.
The goal is to keep the residents from being
displaced whatever it takes, said Adriana
Guzman with SFOP/PIA. She helped organized
the march on the property last Thursday.
Similar actions took place in Oakland,
Mountain View and San Mateo.
Spiekers attorney, however, said he has not
heard from any of the tenants at the complex
and did not know they were rallying to fight displacement.
We havent heard from any of the tenants,
Burmeister said.
He said Spiekers goal is to improve the
entire complex to make it a safer and better
place to live.
Spieker is the type of person who tries to
cooperate with residents, Burmeister said.
He may be willing to negotiate with tenants
for longer stays or relocation assistance,
Burmeister said.

and to plan for a gentle death.
Religious groups, including the Catholic
Church, and advocates for people with disabilities opposed the measure, saying it legalizes
premature suicide and puts terminally ill
patients at risk for coerced death.
Opponents said they were disappointed that
the governor relied so heavily on his personal
experience in his decision.
As someone of wealth with access to the
worlds best medical care, the governors
background is very different than that of millions of Californians living in health care poverty without that same access, the group
Californians Against Assisted Suicide said in a
statement that warned of doctors prescribing
lethal overdoses to patients who might not truly

Three share Nobel


prize for tropical
disease drug work
By Karl Ritter and Maria Cheng
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STOCKHOLM The Nobel


prize in medicine went Monday to
three scientists hailed as heroes in
the truest sense of the word for saving millions of lives with the creation
of the worlds leading malaria-fighting drug and another that has nearly
wiped out two devastating tropical
diseases.
Tu Youyou the first-ever
Chinese medicine laureate
turned to ancient texts to produce
artemesinin, a drug that is now the
top treatment for malaria. Inspired
by traditional Chinese medicine, Tu
discovered that a compound from
the wormwood plant was highly
effective against the malaria parasite, while working on a project for
the Chinese military during the
Cultural Revolution.
She will share the 8 million
Swedish kronor (about $960,000)
award with Japanese microbiologist
Satoshi Omura and William
Campbell, an Irish-born U.S. scientist.
Omura and Campbell created the
drug avermectin, whose derivatives
have nearly rid the planet of river
blindness and lymphatic filarisis,
diseases caused by parasitic worms
and spread by mosquitos and flies.
They affect millions of people in
Africa, Latin America and Asia,
leaving sufferers blind or disfigured
and often unable to work.
The Nobel committee said the
winners, who are all in their 80s and
made their breakthroughs in the
1970s and 80s, had given
humankind powerful tools: The
consequences in terms of improved

human health and reduced suffering


are immeasurable, the committee
said.
The Carter Center called the three
laureates heroes in the truest sense
of the word, saving lives through
medicine.
Campbell, 85, is a research fellow
emeritus at Drew University in
Madison, New Jersey. He told the
AP he made his main discovery in
1975 while working at pharmaceutical company Merck.
It was a great team effort, said
Campbell, who now lives in North
Andover, Massachusetts. He said
the award came as a huge surprise.
Omura, 80, is a professor emeritus at Kitasato University in Japan
and is from the central prefecture of
Yamanashi. He wondered whether
he deserved the prize.
I have learned so much from
microorganisms and I have depended on them, so I would much rather
give the prize to microorganisms,
Omura told Japanese broadcaster
NHK.
Working in the 1970s, Omura isolated new strains of Streptomyces
bacteria and cultured them so that
they could be analyzed for their
impact against harmful microorganisms, the Nobel committee said.
Omura said the crucial strain was
found in a soil sample from a golf
course near Tokyo. He said he always
carries around a plastic bag in his
wallet so he can collect soil samples.
Campbell showed that one of those
cultures was remarkably efficient
against parasites in animals, the committee said. The bioactive agent was
purified, named avermectin and
modified to a compound that effec-

medicine with the creation of the worlds leading malaria-fighting drug and another that has nearly wiped out
two devastating tropical diseases.
tively killed parasitic larvae, leading
to the creation of a new class of
drugs.
Today, its derivative ivermectin is
considered a highly effective preventive treatment against river blindness
and lymphatic filariasis, the committee said.
(Ivermectin) reduces the number
of parasites in the blood so that when
a mosquito bites someone, it cannot
transmit the disease to someone
else, said Dr. Peter Hotez, dean of
the National School of Tropical
Medicine at Baylor College of
Medicine in Houston. He said mass
distribution campaigns have given
out ivermectin for free to 450 million
people in efforts to eliminate both
river blindness and lymphatic filariasis.
Hotez said that in parts of Africa,
adult sufferers of river blindness are
often led around with a stick by a
young child. Until ivermectin came
along, Hotez said there was no way
to effectively prevent the disease.
Tu, 84, is a researcher at the China
Academy of Chinese Medical
Sciences.
As a junior researcher, she was

recruited by Chairman Maos government to work on a military project


in 1969 to find malaria drugs.
She turned to herbal medicine to
discover a new malarial agent in an
extract from the sweet wormwood
plant. The agent, artemisinin (pronounced ar-tuh-MIHS-ihn-ihn), was
highly effective against malaria, a
disease that was on the rise in the
1960s, the committee said.
Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease that still kills around 500,000
people a year, mostly in Africa,
despite efforts to control it.
Colin Sutherland, a reader in parasitology at London School of
Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said
that the impact of artemesinin has
been profound and changed nearly
every countrys malaria treatment
protocol.
Still, artemisinin resistance has
already
been
confirmed
in
Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand
and Vietnam.
There have been several previous
Nobel Prizes for malaria research,
including the 1902 award to British
army surgeon Ronald Ross, who discovered that the disease is transmit-

ted by mosquitos.
The last time a Chinese citizen won
a Nobel was in 2012, when Mo Yan
got the literature award. But China
has been yearning for a Nobel Prize
in science. This was the first Nobel
Prize given to a Chinese scientist for
work carried out within China.
This is indeed a glorious
moment, said Li Chenjian, a vice
provost at prestigious Peking
University. This also is an acknowledgement to the traditional Chinese
medicine, for the work began with
herbal medicine.
Stephen Ward, deputy director of
Liverpool School of Tropical
Medicine, said the prize confirms
that Chinese scientists did fantastic
work in the 1960s even when they
were effectively ignored by the rest
of the world.
The medicine award was the first
Nobel Prize to be announced. The
winners of the physics, chemistry and
peace prizes are set to be announced
later this week. The economics prize
will be announced next Monday. No
date has been set yet for the literature
prize, but it is expected to be
announced on Thursday.

John Stamos surrenders to being


charming in Grandfathered
LOS ANGELES In conversation,
John Stamos comes across as entirely at
ease in his handsome, age-defying skin.
Who wouldnt be? But he admits that
he longed to slip into something less
comfortable on TV, a character distant
from the good-natured charmers hes
known for. He thought hed found it.

SQUARE
Continued from page 1
And though school officials would not
identify the amount of money they are
offering to purchase the site, Chief
Business Officer Patricia Ernsberger
said the previously estimated amount to
complete the project remains the most
accurate, available figure.
Building a school at Charter Square
for roughly 400 students is a key component of the districts Measure X campaign, which is designed to address
overenrollment concerns throughout the
district.
The bond, which proposes to tax home
owners roughly $15 per $100,000 of
assessed home value, would pay for the
construction of 50 new classrooms in
San Mateo and Foster City.
And though enrollment is expected to
jump by about 200 more students per
year, Barton said the Charter Square site
is especially important because it is in
the epicenter of tremendous growth.
She said nearby campuses such as
Foster City Elementary are bursting at

officially charged 61-year-old James
Haarer Goss with murder Monday.
Goss, a resident of Arnold, California,
claimed he doesnt recall how his
acquaintance Robert Alan Lawless
ended up dead in a room they shared at
the Lia Hotel Thursday morning, said
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
The two men, both who have criminal
records and were reportedly drinking the
night of Lawless death, met about two
months earlier at a casino. Lawless, who
has family in the area, came down from
Sonora the day before he was found
killed by multiple stab wounds to his
upper body, Wagstaffe said.
Based on video surveillance from the
hotel, a call to paramedics and the coroners initial report, Goss is believed to
have stabbed Lawless several dozen
times sometime between 5 a.m. and 10
a.m. Thursday, Oct. 1, Wagstaffe said.
Thats a high number of stab wounds.

People in the news


pilot called Cocked, as this druggedout guy who inherits a gun company. It
was very dark, and I just kept auditioning, and I really wanted it, and I didnt
get it, he recalled.
His agent had a rebound suggestion. If
his goal was to be on TV and entertain
viewers, Stamos was advised to do what
he does best.
He found the role and the vehicle in

Foxs new comedy Grandfathered (8


p.m. EDT Tuesday), cut with couture
precision to fit him. Stamos plays a
restaurateur and kinda content single guy who finds his self-absorbed life

didnt know he had. Oh, and theres also

Stamos, 52, has effectively played

Broadway revivals Cabaret and Gore
Vidals The Best Man.

the seams with students, which has


required the administration to implement alternate recess and class schedules to accommodate the enrollment
growth.
Should the purchase negotiations fall
through, Barton said the district would
need to add more temporary classrooms
to the already packed campuses across
Foster City.
Acquisition of the Charter Square
property is integral to resolving the districts shortage of space for students,
said Barton.
We wont have these really gigantic
schools with no space for art and
music, she said.
The district had pursued purchasing
Charter Square in the lead up to its campaign for a previous bond effort in 2012,
but Westlake Realty was not interested
in selling the site. Measure P was ultimately shot down by voters that year.
More recently though, the property
owners have expressed a willingness to
engage in good faith bargaining with the
district regarding a potential sale of the
site.
Community opposition of the proposed sale formed in 2012 from resi-

dents and business owners in Foster


City, but Barton said school officials
have not heard similar concerns
expressed in the campaign for Measure
X.
But some living near Charter Square
have said they are worried about the
impact on traffic and parking in the
neighborhood should the property eventually become a school, said Barton.
She said she believes the school could
actually reduce the amount of cars on the
road in the region, because those living
near Charter Square who are currently
driving their children to school at other
campuses would be able to walk instead.
Should the bond pass, and the deal for
the sale eventually be completed,
Ernsberger estimated that the school
could be built and opened as soon as the
fall of 2019.
But officials were reluctant to express
too much enthusiasm for the exclusive
agreement that could lead to a sale, as
much of the ability of the district to
negotiate is contingent on the tax measure passing.
The bond is key. Having money is
key, said Ernsberger. Thats the big
hurdle.

That usually indicates a very angry person inflicted the fatal wounds,
Wagstaffe said.
Goss appeared in court Monday and
was denied access to the public defender
program after he told a San Mateo
County Superior Court judge he receives
$30,000 a month from a family investment, Wagstaffe said. Goss now has
three days to hire his own defense attorney before hes scheduled to return to
court Oct. 8.
While Wagstaffe said he couldnt
comment on a motive, prosecutors have
identified a witness leading up to the
alleged murder.
Lawless reportedly borrowed Goss
car Wednesday evening and went to a
party where he met a woman. He
returned to the hotel room the men were
sharing with the woman around 3 a.m.
The woman was then seen on surveillance video giving Lawless a hug before
she left around 5 a.m., Wagstaffe said.
Several hours later, Goss reported to
hotel staff that he awoke to find Lawless
bleeding and perhaps dead in the bed
next to him. When medics and San
Mateo County sheriffs deputies

arrived, they pronounced Lawless dead


around 10:05 a.m., according to prosecutors.
Goss was initially taken to the hospital
for injuries that investigators have since
determined occurred when he fell out of
bed earlier in the night. Goss called hotel
staff, who found him alone in the room
and helped him up, Wagstaffe said.
According to state records and local
prosecutors, both men had prior criminal
records. Goss has a felony conviction for
possession of a firearm in 1994 and was
also caught driving with a suspended
license, Wagstaffe said, noting he could
only comment on San Mateo County
records.
Lawless was convicted of two misdemeanors for possessing methamphetamine and driving with a suspended
license in San Mateo County, Wagstaffe
said.
According to the Megans Law website, Lawless was a registered sex
offender who was convicted in 2010 of
attempted lewd or lascivious acts with a
child under 14 years old.
Goss is scheduled to return to court
1:30 p.m. Thursday.
