School district examines affordable teacher housing

South San Francisco officials consider surplus property for house project
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As concern spreads among the

local education community regarding the ability of teachers to survive
the increasingly expensive housing
market in San Mateo County, the
South San Francisco Unified
School District is considering join-

ing the growing effort by some local

districts to build affordable housing
for its teachers and staff.
The districts Board of Trustees
will meet Monday, Oct. 12, to discuss the opportunity to construct
affordable teacher housing on surplus property owned by the district.
Teacher and staff housing, should
the board ultimately elect to pursue

the project, could be a lucrative

means of attracting and retaining
qualified educators for the district,
said Superintendent Shawnterra
Moore.
We are sensitive to the housing
needs of our staff, and this gives us
an opportunity to explore ways to
make it easier for them to reside in
our community, Moore said.

No decision will be made at the

upcoming study session, but the
board will give direction on whether
trustees are interested in pursuing
the matter further, Moore said.
The discussion comes roughly
one month after Moore and a couple
members of the school board met
with representatives from the South
San Francisco City Council and

City Manager Mike Futrell to discuss potentially building affordable

housing on district-owned property.
During the meeting, Moore,
board President Judy Bush and
Trustee Rick Ochsenhirt expressed
a reluctance to pursue the project,
citing a variety of other concerns

County to tweak buying practices

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

San Mateo County will refine its buying

practices following a recent civil grand jury
report that found the Procurement Division
lacks experienced leadership and does not follow best practices.
The July report, Review of the County of
San Mateos Procurement of Goods, also
found that the countys Procurement Division
failed to follow 21 recommendations made by
the 2003-04 San Mateo Civil Grand Jury and
the 2009 Operational Review by the
Controllers Office.
The report also questioned whether a new
effort to improve how the county buys its
goods will be meaningful since most of the
recommendations made previously were
never implemented despite the Procurement
Division agreeing to do so.
The countys expenditures for goods and
services was $299.8 million for fiscal year

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
2013-14, according to the report.
It spent $45.9 million that year on just
goods but county officials were unable to give
the grand jury a clear answer to the question
during its investigation. Some said it was $56
million while others said it was $87 million to
$100 million.
Exactly how much was spent on goods
came into question because the county lacks
an accounting system to clearly segregate
amounts paid for services from amounts paid
for goods, according to the grand jury report.
The civil grand jury investigation also
found that the Procurement Division lost key
personnel in recent years and that there is no
training for new buyers.

The county has already dedicated a new

manager to the division full-time since the
grand jury released its report, according to a
report by County Manager John Maltbie to the
Board of Supervisors.
In January 2015, the County Managers
Office formed a Purchasing Compliance
Committee to begin to address the issues
related to the procurement of goods.
The committee will develop best-practice
procedures for purchasing that all county
departments will follow, according to
Maltbies report.
The county essentially agrees with all of the
grand jurys recent recommendations to
improve purchasing although it responds that
a full-time procurement specialist was in
place during past reviews and failed to implement the previous recommendations.
The county is also implementing a new
financial accounting system that should make
managing procurement more efficient.

Group launches new effort

to boost state cigarette tax
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Proponents of an effort to raise

Californias cigarette tax have launched a new effort to raise
the cigarette tax by $2 a pack, this time with support from
wealthy donor Tom Steyer.
A group that includes the California Medical Association,
American Lung Association and Service Employees
International Union said it submitted a new ballot initiative
Wednesday.
The group already was cleared to gather signatures for two
other similar measures to raise the cigarette tax by $2 a pack,
with most of the money going to the Medi-Cal program for the
poor.
Similar legislation stalled in the Legislature this year amid
opposition from tobacco companies. Voters have rejected two
other cigarette tax hikes in the last decade.
Californias current per-pack tax is 15th lowest in the nation
at 87 cents.

South Carolina still on edge

from floods; two die in truck
By Adam Beam and Meg Kinnard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Law enforcement agencies have acknowledged privacy concerns over how long they store
scans which includes a photo of the vehicle, its plate and a GPS and time marker and
have voluntarily instituted policies to limit that storage.

Private database lets police

skirt license plate data limits
By Tami Abdollah
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONG BEACH, For years, police

nationwide have used patrol car-mounted
scanners to automatically photograph and log
the whereabouts of peoples cars, uploading
the images into databases theyve used to
identify suspects in crimes from theft to murder.
Nowadays, they are also increasingly buying access to expansive databases run by private companies whose repo men and towtruck drivers photograph license plates of
vehicles every day.
Civil libertarians and lawmakers are raising
concerns about the latest practice, arguing that
there are few, if any, protections against abuse
and that the private databases go back years at
a time when agencies are limiting how long
such information is stored.
Some argue police should get a warrant
from a judge to access the databases, much as
they would if they wanted to obtain emails.
The public is understandably concerned
about how this information is going to be
used, said Chuck Wexler, executive director

of the Police Executive Research Forum, but

for police, the databases, just like surveillance
cameras, are an important investigative tool.
License plate scans have been at the forefront of a privacy debate in recent years.
The license plate reader companies say their
scans are useless without access to motor
vehicle department rolls which police have.
They say lawmakers should focus on strengthening data access laws, rather than eliminating
police tools.
The largest firm, Livermore-based Vigilant
Solutions, has filed a lawsuit or actively lobbied in at least 22 states and the District of
Columbia for its technology, said Todd
Hodnett, founder of Digital Recognition
Network, which provides the data it collects to
law enforcement through its sister company
Vigilant.
He said as of June that roughly 30,000 law
enforcement officers nationwide subscribe to
their LEARN database.
Hodnett said when he tells legislators that
the data his company gathers is protected, I
cant tell you how many times Ive heard legislators say this sounds like a solution in
search of a problem.

COLUMBIA, S.C. It could take until the

weekend for the threat of flooding to ease in
storm-tattered South Carolina, where a senator
warned of a potential billion-dollar cleanup
bill, two more people died in the floodwaters
and the flagship university sent a home football game 700 miles away.
Rivers rose and dams bulged as storm water
from days of heavy rains made its way to the
Atlantic Ocean, causing a second round of
flooding downstream.
Gov. Nikki Haley paid a visit to the coast,
which she said would still be in danger for
another 24-48 hours.
Were holding our breath and saying a
prayer, she said.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham warned the
disaster could break the bank of federal
emergency funds, possibly topping more than
$1 billion.
In another image of the storms otherworld-

ly toll, state officials said caskets have popped

out of the ground in 11 instances in six counties.
At least 19 people in South Carolina and
North Carolina have died in the storm, while
many survivors returned home to discover
theyd lost everything.
Wendy Dixon burst into sobs after realizing
her wedding album and dozens of photos of
her two sons and three grandchildren were
destroyed.
Overcome with emotion and barely able to
walk across her waterlogged carpet, Dixon
grasped the arm of a niece inside the Columbia
apartment.
Everything is gone! she wailed. My
clothes and all can be replaced. But my little
things, my pictures, are all gone.
It was another anxious day of waiting for
floodwaters to recede around the capital city.
About 1,000 residents near the compromised
Beaver Dam were told to evacuate Wednesday
morning, though the order was lifted several
hours later when crews shored up the dam.

The Ramer Family moved from their family home in Spiro, Oklahoma in the late 1940s and
settled in Monterey/Carmel, California. Opal took a train to California from Oklahoma in
advance of the remaining Ramer Family members. In California, Opal found a career as a school
teacher, allowing her to establish herself in preparation for the arrival of her other family
members, except brothers Hubert and Dean, who had decided to stay in Oklahoma and tough
out the devastating dust bowl. The teaching profession t Opal like a glove and she continued
teaching her entire career until retiring after over 40 years of service.
It was after moving to California that Opal met the love of her life, Loren Peacock, to whom
she was married for over 50 years. Although Opal and Loren were not blessed with children of
their own, bright little faces of the giggling, chattering children that Opal taught in school were
fulllment enough.
Aside from Opals salt of the earth work ethic and seless dedication to her entire extended
family, her generosity of spirit and faith touched the lives of everyone that ever knew her and
will be greatly missed.
Family and friends are invited to attend a graveside funeral for Opal on October 8, 2015, at
12 Noon at Skylawn Funeral Home located at Highway 92 and Skyline Blvd. in San Mateo, CA.
Interment will follow where Opal will be reunited with Loren Peacock in the Skylawn Memorial
Park family crypt.

Senate OKs massive defense

bill, sends measure to Obama
By Deb Riechman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Congress on
Wednesday sent President Barack
Obama a sweeping $612 billion
defense policy bill that he has
threatened to veto over an ongoing
battle between Democrats and
Republicans about government
spending.
The Senate voted to approve the
measure 70 to 27.
If Obama vetoes the defense bill,
it would be only the fifth time that
has happened in the past half-century. The bipartisan measure has
become law every year for more
than 50 years.
The House passed the bill last
week, 269 to 151, with enough
Democratic votes to sustain a presidential veto.
Obama says hell veto it because

while it contains

requested,

with an extra

increase money for domestic agencies too as the president wants.
If the veto is sustained, Congress
would be forced to revise the bill or
try to settle the larger budget dispute.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., said the presidents desire to veto the bill is outrageous in the light of national
security threats.

Vice President Joe Biden speaks during the Concordia Summit in New York.

If he runs, Biden would be only Dem

backing the Trans-Pacific Partnership
By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

Vice
President Joe Biden became the
only prospective or current
Democratic presidential candidate
supporting
the
Trans-Pacific
Partnership on Wednesday as
Hillary Rodham Clinton declared
her opposition.
A longtime darling of unions,
Biden has been skeptical of previous sweeping free trade deals,
warning of risks to U.S. jobs. Yet
hes publicly supporting the TransPacific Partnership, jeopardizing
his support from unions if he enters
the
race.
Other
declared

Democratic candidates have said

they oppose the deal.
Biden, who is considering running for president, made no mention of the controversial trade deal
as he addressed union officials
Wednesday at a White House
workers summit. Instead, he
focused on safe-bet issues like
higher wages and collective bargaining, telling labor leaders their
movement built the middle
class.
But Bidens office said he supports the TPP agreement and will
help pass it on the Hill, suggesting
hell lobby lawmakers to vote for it.
The vice president also serves as
the Senates president, so Biden

could be called upon to cast a tiebreaking vote.

Its an unfortunate side-effect of
this trade policy because Joe Biden
is beloved in the labor community,
said Chuck Rocha, a longtime labor
organizer and Democratic consultant. But theyre really drawing a
line in the sand on the issue
more than they ever have in the history of the movement.
Clinton came out against the deal
on Wednesday, breaking with
President Barack Obama and Biden
and saying she fears the deal wont
meet the high bar I have set. Sen.
Bernie Sanders and former
Maryland Gov. Martin OMalley
are both staunchly opposed.

Obama apologizes to aid group for U.S. attack on Afghan clinic

By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack

Obama apologized to Doctors Without
Borders on Wednesday for the American air
attack that killed at least 22 people at its hospital in Afghanistan, and said the U.S. would
examine military procedures to look for better
ways to prevent such incidents.
Obamas telephone call to the groups international president, Joanne Liu, came a day
after the White House had stopped short of an
apology, waiting to learn more while
acknowledging that the attack was a U.S. mistake. White House spokesman Josh Earnest
said Obama offered condolences to the staff
and pledged a transparent, thorough and
objective accounting of the facts.
Liu confirmed the apology and, in a written
statement, reiterated her organizations call
for the U.S. government to consent to an independent investigation to establish what happened in Kunduz, how it happened, and why
it happened.
When the United States makes a mistake,
we own up to it, we apologize where appropriate, and we are honest about what tran-

spired, Earnest said. He described Obamas

apology as heartfelt.
Emerging details about the erroneous strike
have only fueled growing condemnation by
Doctors Without Borders and other aid groups
in the four days since the clinic in the northern city of Kunduz came under heavy fire that
killed a dozen staffers and 10 patients. After
initial confusion, officials determined the
U.S. had carried out the strike, an admission
that complicates delicate U.S. efforts in
Afghanistan as Obama weighs how many
troops to leave there.
Obama told Liu that the U.S. would review
the attack to determine whether changes to
U.S. military procedures could reduce the
chances of a similar incident. Obama also
spoke with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani to
convey condolences and praise Afghan forces
for securing Kunduz, the White House said.
Taliban fighters had seized control of Kunduz
for three days last week.
Investigations by the U.S., NATO and the
Afghan government are underway, but the
medical aid group has called them insufficient
and has appealed to the U.S., Afghanistan and
other countries to mobilize a commission to
look into the tragedy.

Trio wins Nobel Prize for mapping

how bodies repair damage to DNA
By Karl Ritter and Malcolm Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STOCKHOLM Tomas Lindahl was eating his breakfast in England on Wednesday

when the call came ostensibly, from the
Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. It
occurred to him that this might be a hoax, but
then the caller started speaking Swedish.
It was no joke: Lindahl and two others had
won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for pioneering studies into the way our bodies repair
damage to DNA.
Their work has provided fundamental
knowledge of how a living cell functions and
is used in developing new cancer treatments,
the academy said.
Lindahl, who is Swedish, was honored
along with American Paul Modrich and U.S.Turkish scientist Aziz Sancar for research
done in the 1970s and 80s.
The men really laid the foundations for the

whole field of DNA repair, said Alan

Ashworth, president of the cancer center at
the University of California, San Francisco.
These really are the fathers of the field.
Lindahl, 77, is an emeritus group leader at
the Francis Crick Institute and Emeritus director of Cancer Research UK at Clare Hall
Laboratory in Britain.
Modrich, 69, is an investigator at Howard
Hughes Medical Institute and professor at
Duke University School of Medicine in
Durham, North Carolina.
Sancar, also 69, is a professor at the
University of North Carolina School of
Medicine in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He
is the second Turk to win a Nobel Prize, after
novelist Orhan Pamuk was awarded the literature prize in 2006.
Sancar comes from a family of farmers with
eight children; neither parent received an education but all the children are university graduates, Sancar told Haber Turk television.

Tomas Lindahl, Paul Modrich and Aziz Sancar won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for pioneering
studies into the way our bodies repair damage to DNA.
He told the Associated Press that he
thought the prize would be very important for
Turkey.
Young Turkish scientists need a role model
showing that they can accomplish important
contributions to science, he said.
Lindahl told reporters at his laboratory near
London that the prize is a great honor and a
fantastic way of winding up my career.
Modrich, on vacation in New Hampshire,
said he found out about his prize when a colleague emailed congratulations.

I never quite put our work in this class,

actually, Modrich told the AP. Its nice to
know other people put it in that class.
The prize is worth 8 million Swedish kronor (about $960,000).
Working separately, the laureates broke
new ground by mapping and explaining several of the ways a cell repairs its DNA, the
molecule that contains our genes. DNA sustains damage in multiple ways, such as when
it is copied as cells divide or in response to
chemicals or ultraviolet rays from the sun.

Officials: Iran lobbied for Russian campaign in Syria

By Qassim Abdul-Zahra
and Vivian Salama
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Iran played an

integral role leading up to Russias
move to launch its air campaign in
Syria and play a stronger role in Iraq,
with one of Tehrans most powerful
generals meeting for three hours with
President Vladimir Putin to push for
intervention, Iraqi government officials tell the Associated Press.
Gen. Qassem Soleimani, head of
Irans elite Quds Force, went to
Moscow in August with the message
that Russian airstrikes against the
Islamic State group in Syria were
imperative, said the two senior officials, who were later briefed on the
meeting. Soleimani and Putin
reviewed maps and surveillance photos and shared intelligence, all suggesting the militant group would
expand its reach to Russias doorstep
in the Caucuses if Moscow didnt act,
the two officials said.
The meeting also covered plans to
create a joint intelligence-sharing
center between Iraq, Syria, Iran and
Russia in Baghdad, which began
operating later the same month.
Soleimani also met with senior
Russian military officials during his
visit, the officials said. The two officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized
to talk about the secret meeting,

is the strongest backer of Syrian

Asked on Wednesday about the
reported Putin-Soleimani meeting,

are too many statements from
unidentified officials. At the time,
Russias deputy foreign ministry
spokesman said he has no information whatsoever that Soleimani visited Russia, which would be a viola-

Russia fires cruise missiles from warships into Syria

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAMASCUS, Syria Russian

warships in the Caspian Sea fired
cruise missiles Wednesday as
Syrian
government
troops
launched a ground offensive in
central Syria in the first major
combined air-and-ground assault
since Moscow began its military
campaign in the country last week.
The missiles flew nearly 1,500
kilometers (930 miles) over Iran
and Iraq and struck Raqqa and
Aleppo provinces in the north and
Idlib province in the northwest,
Russian officials said. The Islamic
State group has strongholds in
Raqqa and Aleppo, while the alQaida-linked Nusra Front has a

strong presence in Idlib.

U.S. Defense Secretary Ash
Carter said Russia was continuing
to strike targets other than Islamic
State militants, adding that he was
concerned about the Syrian ground
offensive backed by Moscows airpower.
The latest developments came a
week after Russia began airstrikes
in Syria, its longtime ally, on Sept.
30, and added a new dimension to
the complex war that has torn apart
the Mideast country since 2011.
Activists and rebels say the targets have included Western-backed
fighters and other groups opposed
to President Bashar Assad.
A Syrian official and activists
said government troops pushed

into areas in the central province of

Hama and south of Idlib in the
boldest multipronged attack on
rebel-held areas, benefiting from
the Russian air cover. The official
spoke on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorized to
talk to the media.
Moscow has mainly targeted
central and northwestern Syria,
strategic regions that are the gateway to Assads strongholds in
Damascus, and along the
Mediterranean coast where Russia
has a naval base.
The Russian airstrikes strikes
appear to have emboldened Syrian
troops to launch the ground push
after a series of setbacks in northwestern Syria in recent months.

the general. The Iranian government
on Wednesday did not respond to
requests for comment on the reported
meeting.
Russian military jets launched the
airstrike campaign in Syria on Sept.
30, targeting what Moscow said were
positions of the Islamic State group
and al-Qaidas branch. But it has also
heavily hit rebels on the front-line

against Syrias military, raising accusations that it is intervening to boost

Assad in the civil war, now in its fifth
year, after a series of losses by his
military. Russia denies this, saying its
campaign is solely intended to stop
the spread of militants.
The U.S. meanwhile has had to
navigate around regional alliances
and enmities in trying to roll back
ISs spread across large parts of Iraq

and Syria. In Syria, Washington

refuses to work with Assads government in the air campaign, saying
Assad needs to leave power, and it
has been wary of appearing to help
Syrian troops with strikes against IS.
In Iraq, the U.S. has been wary of
helping to deepen Irans influence
and has avoided coordinating with
the Shiite militias, trying instead to
boost the Iraqi military, while press-

Anxious Israelis told to
be on alert amid wave of attacks
JERUSALEM Palestinian assailants carried out a series of
stabbings across Israel on Wednesday, jolting an anxious country unnerved by weeks of unrest as clashes between Israeli
forces and Palestinian demonstrators raged across the West
Bank.
The violence forced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to
call off a high-profile visit to Germany and prompted him to
tell the nation to be on alert for further trouble. And in another sign of the tensions, Jerusalems mayor, Nir Barkat, was seen
carrying an assault rifle while visiting an Arab neighborhood.
The unrest began three weeks ago and has spread from the
confines of a sensitive Jerusalem holy site to spots across Israel
and the West Bank. In Wednesdays violence, stabbings
occurred outside a crowded mall in central Israel, in a southern
Israeli town and in the Old City of Jerusalem.

ing the Shiite-led government to ease

sectarian tensions with the Sunni
minority. Washington and Tehran
refuse to work with each other directly, even as Iran takes a powerful role
in fighting IS.
Soleimani, Tehrans point man in
both the Syrian and Iraq conflicts, has
been key in organizing Shiite militias
in Iraq and Syria, which have had a
leading role in fighting IS.
Meanwhile, the U.S.-trained Iraqi
military crumbled in the face of the
IS advances last year and has struggled to gain ground ever since. When
IS took the western city of Ramadi in
May, a top U.S. general complained
that Iraqi forces didnt have the will
to fight.
U.S. airstrikes have been key in
pushing back IS on several fronts in
Iraq and Syria, often in coordination
with the Iraqi military or Kurdish
fighters on the ground.
Last month, Iran granted permission for Russian planes to fly over its
territory en route to Syria, Russian
news agencies said on Sept. 9. After
Bulgaria rejected Moscows overflight request for Sept. 1-24, a path
via Iran and Iraq appeared to be the
only one left, as Russia apparently
sought to avoid flying over Turkey,
which in 2012 grounded a Syriabound plane carrying radar parts
from Moscow.
Defense Secretary Ashton Carter
said Russias airstrikes in Syria in
support of the Assad regime were
pouring gasoline on the fire and
called for Moscow to pursue a political solution.
In an interview with France 24 last
week, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider alAbadi said he would welcome military strikes by Russia in his country
if Moscow made such a proposal but
that hasnt happened yet.
Our aim is to bring everybody to
fight Daesh, not to fight among themselves, he said, using the Arabic
acronym for the Islamic State group.
He also sharply criticized President
Barack Obama, accusing him of a
lack of will in the fight against IS.
He called the U.S. support in the fight
limited and said he had expected
massive air power.

Congressional Budget Office:

Budget deficit drops to $435B
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Congressional
budget analysts said Wednesday that
the federal government ran a deficit
of $435 billion in the just-completed
budget year, the smallest deficit since
2007 and well below the record
shortfalls of President Barack
Obamas first term.
The Congressional Budget Office
report says its the sixth consecutive
drop in a row for the deficit, when
measured against the size of the
economy, since the $1.4 trillion
deficit of Obamas first term.
The improved deficit figures
come as Washington is grappling
with the need to increase the governments borrowing cap in early
November. The White House and
lawmakers on Capitol Hill are also
seeking a separate agreement on a
budget to keep the government open
past a Dec. 11 deadline.
During Obamas first term, the
deficit was greater than $1 trillion
for four years in a row in the wake
of the Wall Street bailout, a huge
stock market drop and a major
recession.
The budget office does nonparti-

san analysis for Congress; the official government estimate from the
White House budget office and
Treasury Department typically is
released in mid-October.
The stronger figures represent 8
percent growth in tax revenues, led
by 10 percent growth in individual
income taxes. Spending grew more
slowly, though the cost of health
insurance
subsidies
through
exchanges established by the
Affordable Care Act almost doubled, to $27 billion.
CBO expects the deficits downward trend to continue for a couple
of more years but says long-term
trends, driven by the continuing
retirement of the baby Boom generation and its effect on benefit programs like Medicare and Social
Security, will likely cause an eventual fiscal crisis.
Two attempts by Obama and
House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, to negotiate a sweeping
deficit-cutting package ended in
failure after Boehner pulled out of
the talks. Now, Obama is refusing to
offer concessions in exchange for
increasing the governments $18.1
trillion borrowing cap. Treasury
Secretary Jacob Lew has warned

Congress to act by Nov. 5 to avoid a

first-ever default, though an analysis by the Bipartisan Policy Center
think tank in Washington says the
absolute latest deadline will fall
between Nov. 10-19.
In 2011, after Republicans
reclaimed the House and before
his re-election Obama conceded
$2.1 trillion in spending cuts over
10 years as part of a deal with
Boehner to lift the debt cap and
avert a financial crisis. Since then,
hes refused to offer more cuts as a
condition for increasing the debt
limit and Republicans have reluctantly gone along.
Talks on a spending package that
would ease automatic cuts to agency
budgets, known as sequestration,
imposed by the 2011 deal and
replace them with savings elsewhere in the budget have just started. Obama has vowed to veto legislation that doesnt lift those spending caps but many House GOP
conservatives are insisting on
retaining them and being more confrontational with Obama under the
incoming House leadership team.
Boehner announced his resignation
at months end under pressure from
tea party hardliners.

Menlo rally stuns M-A

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

When Jack Bowen, Menlo School boys

water polo coach, exited the team room following the Knights match against rival
Menlo-Atherton, he came bounding out
with a Tiger Woods-esque fist pump.
It was a rare show of pumped-up emotion
for the longtime coach, but after what he
and the Knights had just been through, an
outpouring of emotion could be forgiven.
Menlo, which never led in the match and
trailed 6-3 early in the third period, rallied
to outscore the Bears 8-2 over the final 12plus minutes to pull out a gritty 11-8 victory.
Its been a while (since Ive been that
pumped up), Bowen said. I was told during
the fourth quarter I was displaying antics. I
thought I was in the coaching zone.
Bowen had every right to emote. His
Menlo squad, despite doing what Bowen
wanted it to do, was failing when it counted
most finishing shots.
After struggling in nearly all aspects of
the game in the first half, Menlo made some
adjustments at halftime that paid off in the
second half.
When Miller Geschke, a sophomore,
floated home a goal to pull Menlo a goal
closer, 8-7, with 2:46 to play in the third
period, the tide appeared to turn.
We were playing our system and we
werent scoring, Bowen said. The Xs and
Os were correct the whole game.
The Bears pushed their lead back to two
goals, 8-6, on Alexander Hakansons fifth
goal of the match, but Menlo made it an 87 match on a goal from Jayden Kunwar
going into the fourth period.
In that final quarter, Menlo simply overwhelmed M-A. The Knights tied the match
at 8 with 4:29 to play, when James
Thygesen scored the third of his four goals,
by sneaking a shot past the M-A goalkeeper just inside the far left post. The Knights
took the lead for good just over two minutes
later when Untrecht beat the goaltender to

Sharks open with impressive win

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES After the Los Angeles

Kings scored a goal on their first shot, coach
Peter DeBoer thought his San Jose Sharks
played a practically perfect game for his
debut.
And as usual in this rivalry, both teams left
the building with hard feelings about some
heavy hits.
Captain Joe Pavelski had a goal and two
assists, and Joonas Donskoi scored in his
NHL debut in the Sharks 5-1 victory
Wednesday night in both clubs season
opener.
Joe Thornton and Brent Burns had a goal

Sharks 5, Kings 1
and an assist apiece, and
Tomas Hertl also scored
as the Sharks thoroughly
dominated
their
California rivals in
DeBoers successful start
with his new club.
Pavelski was outstanding
in his first game since
Joe Pavelski being named the permanent captain of the
Sharks, who won a season opener at Staples
Center for the second straight year.

Not much went wrong tonight, said

DeBoer, the former New Jersey coach tasked
with revitalizing a perennial contender. I
think the game was the culmination of a
month of hard work.
Those details included several crushing
hits and a parade of third-period penalties
all the typical stuff in this West Coast series.
Kings forward Milan Lucic topped it all
and punctuated his debut with a match penalty for following Logan Couture to the
Sharks bench and clobbering him with 1:19
to play, setting off a major scuffle. Couture
had exited the penalty box and upended Lucic
with a low check moments earlier.
I just finished my check, Couture said.

Thats hockey, right? Youre supposed to

finish your checks. I didnt think there was
players that youre not allowed to hit in this
league.
Kings coach Darryl Sutter thought Lucic
deserved a minor penalty ... at best.
I dont know why I got a match penalty,
Lucic said. I didnt cross any line.
Martin Jones made 19 saves in his own
debut for the Sharks against his former team,
stopping everything after the Kings first
shot. Nick Shore scored 1:49 into the first
period.
I thought we did a good job bouncing
back, Jones said. We were really solid,

Arrieta pitches Chicago into NLDS

By Will Graves
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLES LECLAIRE/USA TODAY SPORTS

Jake Arrieta pitched a complete-game,

four-hit shutout as Chicago beat Pittsburgh
4-0 in the National League Wild Card game.

PITTSBURGH These Chicago Cubs are

supposed to be too young to be here. Or
maybe theyre just too good to care.
Jake Arrieta allowed four hits in nine dominant innings and the Cubs rolled to a 4-0 win
over the Pittsburgh Pirates in the NL wild-card
game on Wednesday night.
Arrieta struck out 11 without a walk. He also
dusted himself off getting plunked by
Pittsburgh reliever Tony Watson to send the
Cubs to the NL Division Series in St. Louis
starting on Friday.
Im exhausted. I havent felt this way all
year, said Arrieta, who led the majors with 22
wins. This atmosphere, the energy was unbelievable. Tried to use it to the best of my ability. They were loud, they were really loud.
Dexter Fowler homered and scored three
times for the Cubs. Kyle Schwarber added a
towering two-run shot off Pittsburgh starter
Gerrit Cole as Chicago raced to an early lead
and let Arrieta do the rest.
The largest crowd ever at PNC Park failed to
rattle Arrieta or one of baseballs youngest
teams. First-year manager Joe Maddons club
played with swagger and confidence and
looked right at home while snapping a nine-

game playoff losing streak that dated to the

2003 NL Championship Series.
Its tremendous for the city. Its been a
while, Arrieta said. Chicagos been waiting
for this, but its only step one.
Pittsburgh was knocked out after finishing
second in the majors with 98 victories this
year. Last season, the Pirates also were shut
out on four hits at home in the wild-card game,
losing to San Francisco.
Well, sports is hard. Lifes not fair. You go
out and play. You get beat, you move on,
manager Clint Hurdle said.
The bearded, 29-year-old Arrieta, still
unbeaten since July 25, stretched his remarkable second half in which he posted an 0.75
ERA into the opening round of the playoffs. He threw the first complete-game shutout
for the Cubs in the postseason since Claude
Passeau tossed a one-hitter in the 1945 World
Series against Detroit.
Arrieta even laughed off a weird sequence in
the seventh when Watsons fastball hit him in
his left side. The benches and bullpens cleared
when Watson was issued a warning, leading to
little more than a few heated exchanges along
the first base line.
I hit two guys, unintentionally. Im not
trying to hurt or hit anybody, Arrieta said.
Balls were slick tonight. I just lost it a couple of times, it kind of ran away from me.

I expected that. Theyre going to take care

of their own guys. Its understandable.
Everything after that was fine, he said.
Pirates utility player Sean Rodriguez, whod
already been pulled, was ejected and proceeded
to give an unsuspecting water cooler a series
of one-two combinations, eventually sending
it tumbling to the ground.
Pittsburgh had no such luck against Arrieta,
with Hurdle seemingly flummoxed on how to
get to attack a right-hander who has matured
from raw project into overpowering force.
Hurdle shelved slugger Pedro Alvarez
whose 27 homers led the team but whose 23
errors made him a defensive liability in
favor of more sure-handed Rodriguez. Hurdle
pointed to the athleticism Rodriguez brought
as a major factor, figuring the Pirates would
need to get creative to score against Arrieta
rather than hope Alvarez runs into the kind of
mistake Arrieta has avoided nearly all season.
Chicago took a 1-0 lead two batters into the
game when Fowler led off with a single, stole
second and scored on a single to left by
Schwarber.
The two hooked up again in the third.
Fowler singled with one out and Schwarber
turned an 88 mph slider from Cole into a massive two-run shot that appeared destined for
the downtown Pittsburgh skyline before disappearing over the stands in right field.

Raiders Charles Woodson still going strong at 39

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA When Charles Woodson

entered the NFL nearly two decades ago, the
idea that hed still be playing at age 39 never
crossed his mind.
Yet here he still is in his 18th season, ignoring a banged-up shoulder that limits his practice time and his tackling ability and still
grinding away for the Oakland Raiders with the
energy of a much younger player.
I never looked that far into the future to say
Id play past 10 years, Woodson said
Wednesday on his 39th birthday. To be at 18,
man, its amazing even to me. I think about it
more and more because I hear about it all the
time but its pretty crazy to be here at 18 years.
Woodson will have some company in the
old-man brigade on Sunday when the Raiders
(2-2) host Denver (4-0). Broncos quarterback

Peyton Manning also

entered the NFL in the
1998 draft class picked
first, three spots ahead of
Woodson and is still
playing at a high level.
The only other player
remaining from that draft
class is quarterback Matt
Hasselbeck, who also
Charles
started last week. But only
Woodson
Woodson is doing it at a
position where he has to dole out hits and run
all around the field.
Its definitely something we all look at,
teammate Aldon Smith said. Im 26 and I feel
like I cant complain about certain things
because hes doing it and hes been doing it for
a while and he does it at a high level. It makes
you want to step up and play hard.
Woodson is more than just an inspirational
leader for the Raiders. He is also a major con-

tributor. Despite the injury late in Week 1,

Woodson has played 96 percent of the defensive snaps, second on the team to Malcolm
Smith.
He has two interceptions, sealing a Week 3
win in Cleveland with one and setting up a late,
go-ahead score last week in Chicago with the
62nd of his career. The Raiders ended up losing
that game when the Bears kicked a late field
goal.
Only Darrell Green and Clay Matthews Sr.
have intercepted passes at an older age than
Woodson.
When I was 39, I was the head coach at that
time, my first year, Raiders coach Jack Del
Rio said. I thought I could still do it, but hes
doing it. Its pretty impressive to see what hes
done.
Like Woodson, Manning is not quite the
same player he was in his prime but he is still
quite successful. He has the Broncos at the top
of the AFC West once again and is growing

more comfortable by the week in coach Gary

Kubiaks offense.
Were still hanging in there, Manning
said. Woodson has had two, what really should
have been, game-saving interceptions. It
should have probably helped them win the
Chicago game and it definitely helped them
seal the Cleveland game. Hes making a lot of
plays. Hes the leader of that defense back
there. Its a real credit to him to be playing at a
high level like he is.
For all that Woodson has accomplished with
a Super Bowl title, an AP Defensive Player of
the Year, three first-team All Pro selections and
13 defensive touchdowns, there is at least one
thing missing.
Woodson has never intercepted a pass from
Manning, the player he beat out for the
Heisman Trophy in 1997. Woodson has intercepted passes from 40 quarterbacks, but has
none in eight career meetings against
Manning.

Cal players come together DraftKings open to regulation

through weekly chat sessions
By Kimberly Pierceall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERKELEY Each member of the

California basketball team has his own definition of what it is to be a man, a recent
topic of conversation for the Golden Bears
during one of their weekly chat sessions
focused more on life than athletics.
This is just one focal point for secondyear Cal coach Cuonzo
Martin as he tries to best
prepare his players for
anything that might
come up during college or
later on from a difficult family or personal
matter to an unforeseen
crisis or world event.
Its good to hear each
Cuonzo Martin others opinions on certain issues, guard Sam
Singer said Wednesday. There are going to
be arguments on certain things, were not
going to see eye to eye but for us to be able
to communicate through those disagreements and come to a solid conclusion is
something that will help on the court as
well. Theyve been very productive.
Martin started this at his first coaching
stop, Missouri State.
Its just really about life, not necessarily
about basketball, he said.
The meetings they call Real Talk happen on a weekend day in the locker room
after breakfast, led by director of basketball
operations Marco Harris. Martin turns up
from time to time if he happens to be
around, but if he joins in it is clear he is a
peer and not an authority figure so that
everyone feels comfortable speaking his
mind openly and honestly.
We just talk about different subjects of

life, different things going on around the

world, said guard Tyrone Wallace, who
returned for his senior season rather than
entering the NBA draft. It is a team-builder.
We get to learn from each other as well as the
coaches and the staff who attend. Its just a
chance for us to be together and bond.
That process began during the teams
August tour of Australia.
Martin is all about providing examples
from his own path. Perspective is one of
those teaching points. He used to be so devastated by a loss it would ruin his entire day.
It took me years to learn its just a ballgame, he said. When I was able to embrace
it I was probably 23 years old.
One thing Cal doesnt need to discuss is
the high expectations for this team, with the
national spotlight already on the Bears and
their star-studded freshmen. The group features whats considered a top-five recruiting
class in the nation led by local forward Ivan
Rabb out of Oaklands Bishop ODowd High
and Jaylen Brown from Marietta, Georgia.
Both will make an immediate impact for the
Bears, who finished 18-15 and eighth in the
Pac-12 at 7-11.
Now, the belief around Berkeley is that the
Bears can contend for a conference title
again not to mention an overdue NCAA
Tournament run. The Bears last made the
tournament in 2013 and took a six-point
loss to eventual Final Four participant
Syracuse. In 2009-10, Cal captured its first
conference regular-season crown in 50
years.
I dont think we read too much into stuff
on the outside, Singer said. Were all very
motivated, so we set high expectations for
ourselves. We know what we want to accomplish and know how good we can be, so its
up to us to determine how we do it with all
the potential we have.

LAS VEGAS As daily fantasy sports

operators FanDuel and DraftKings hustle to
prove they can be trusted by thousands of
users each week, cheating allegations have
served as a backdrop for lingering questions
about an industry that has been unregulated.
Officials for the companies repeated
Wednesday that a DraftKings employee who
won $350,000 in a FanDuel contest did
nothing wrong, and did not have access to
internal data before his entry into the contest was complete. But as the companies
operate now, its up to users of the sites to
take their word for it.
DraftKings CEO Jason Robins said
Wednesday the company is committed to creating an open and transparent environment.
We have great records of when data is
pulled, when communications were sent, he
said in an interview on Fox Business. There
was no wrongdoing, he said.
As for regulation, were open to that,
Robins said on ESPNs Outside the Lines,
signaling a change of course for the company.
DraftKings hasnt responded to questions
from The Associated Press about the degree
of access employees have to internal information and when they can access it.
While legal in most U.S. states, daily fantasy sports is unregulated, unlike casinos
and lotteries. Participants put together virtu-

It was a conversation we had and he said,
Hey, just play to win. If something happens, it happens, Kaepernick said. We
have to go out and make sure were making
plays. I think there were throws I could have
made to help us make plays. I put our team in
a bad situation in the Arizona game. I wasnt
going to allow that to happen again. It did
cost us, yes. But thats something I correct
moving forward.
Kaepernick, whose 67.7 passer rating currently ranks 32nd in the NFL, rated his condence level at 100 percent.
I go out, I play to win, he said. Im not
worried about job security when I step in
this building.
Tomsula said he and the coaching staff see
no evidence of Kaepernicks condence
waning.
Weve had a lot of conversations,
Tomsula said. Im a rm believer that the

al teams based on real players and compete

for points based on the players statistics.
The incident has been likened to insider trading. The internal data, describing how often
players are selected by all players in the
salary-cap style game, could be used strategically to build a lineup of players with a lot of
potential who arent popular selections
among opponents.
If the companies were licensed casinos in
Las Vegas, rules would govern who has
access to what and when its likely a team
of badge-wearing law-enforcement investigators would already be looking into the situation. Violating the rules would put valuable licenses to do business both for
high-ranking employees and the companies
themselves at risk.
Depending on the crime, employees could
be prosecuted or added to the states black
book, formerly a home to mobsters and
unsavory characters and more recently a
yearbook for cheats and scammers banned
from Nevada casinos for life.
When companies get licensed, the very
fact that these things could occur act as a
deterrent to this type of activity, said
Nevada Gaming Control Board chief A.G.
Burnett.
Regulators approve house rules, negotiate
disputes between players and the casinos and
require reserves that can pay off any unpaid
wagers and future bets. State agents can show
up whenever they want, unannounced, and
audits are routine.
swords always sharp on both sides. That
would mean your biggest strength can sometimes hurt you. So, weve talked about that.
Not that that is the problem. But, just looking at everything. And not just with him.
With everybody going through it. Were 13. I have a hard time standing here and
telling you anybody has played great or

Staley (leg) all missed Wednesdays practice. Boone and Staley, who participated in
the morning walk throughs, are expected to

49ers acquired in a trade with the Minnesota
Vikings on Monday, made his rst 49er

tonight, Fisher said before the
game, adding that he was completely focused and committed to
the team.
Im not distracted in any way,
he said.
Fisher and Barnes were teammates with the Los Angeles Lakers
from 2010-12. The Grizzlies held
training camp last week in Santa
Barbara, California, and the Post
reported that Barnes drove to
Govans home when he learned
that Fisher was there.

wins championships will be tested by SHP
and Terra Nova.

Contenders: Aragon (4-0),

Burlingame (4-0)
One of these two could be behind the eight
ball right away as they face off in the league
opener Friday.
The Panthers marked their return to the Bay
Division last season with a second-place finish last season, after winning the Ocean
Division title in 2013. The Dons are looking
to do the same thing this season, having won
the 2014 Ocean championship.
Both Aragon and Burlingame have the
pieces to win it all. Offenses that can score
with the best of them and defenses that have
been stingy, to say the least.
The biggest question is: did these teams test
themselves enough during non-league play?
Aragon played two Lake Division squads and
one from the Ocean. Burlingame played one
from each division.

Dark horses: Menlo-Atherton (1-3),

Sequoia (1-3)
The Bears are breaking in a new head coach
and new starting quarterback and played one of
the toughest non-league schedules in the entire
PAL. The Cherokees have encountered some
bad luck so far this season losing in overtime and falling short on their annual road trip,
this time to the Seattle area.
If nothing else, M-A should go into the
league opener against Sequoia with a head of
steam, having put everything together last
week in a dominating win. The Bears have a
reputation of playing good, solid physical
football and that alone is usually good enough
to stay competitive.

The Knights closed out the match with goals
from Chris Xi and Thygesen.
Our young team could have folded, said Xi,

(young) guys really know what theyre doing.
As strong as the Menlo offense was in that
final period, its defense was just as strong. M-A
managed only two shots on the goal over the
final seven minutes.

Division Sequoias roll seems to have leveled off over the last couple of years. It seems
the Cherokees can never quite catch that break
when they need it. Odds are they get a couple
bounces go their way this season. Sequoia
always has one of the biggest rosters among
Peninsula public schools. Its only a matter of
time before the Cherokees find the right combination.

Ocean Division
Favorites: Kings Academy (4-0),
Half Moon Bay (4-0)
These teams have absolutely steamrolled the
opposition so far this season. The Knights
may have the more explosive offense, but the
Cougars have arguably the better defense.
Kings Academy hasnt been held under 40
points this season and with the bulk of their
weapons underclassmen quarterback
Michael Johnson Jr. is only a freshman and
running back Maurice Washington III is only a
sophomore this year and the next couple
look good for the Knights.
Their biggest question is how the Knights
handle being hit in the mouth, that different
kind of physical play that comes with playing
league opponents?
Half Moon Bay has been an absolute monster defensively this season, allowing an average of 3.2 points per game, having already
pitched two shutouts.
The biggest question for the Cougars is: do
they have the type of offense that can come
back from a two-touchdown deficit?

THE DAILY JOURNAL

defense at the right times to be undefeated so

far this season.
Hillsdale has made steady strides over the
last few years and are now one of the solid programs in the Ocean Division. The Knights
have a dynamic offensive backfield in quarterback Brett Wetteland and running back
Cameron Taylor. They have shown over the
last three weeks that they can put up points
with any team.
The Knights, however, tend to make the big
mistake when it matters the most. Turnovers,
while a bugaboo for any team, always seem to
cause more damage when Hillsdale commits
them. If they can cut down on the killer
turnovers and get solid play from their defense,
there is no reason why they cant compete for
the division title.

Jefferson is putting together a season last seen

in 2010, when they lost to Terra Nova in the
CCS Division III semifinals.

Contender: San Mateo (2-2)

The Bearcats started the season with a pair of
impressive wins, followed by a pair of impressive losses. They are showing a grit and determination not seen in a while and it should
bode well for them this year.
San Mateo doesnt do anything fancy and as
the Bearcats proved in their loss to Aragon,
they have a battering-ram backfield that can
and will overwhelm Lake opposition this season. As long as they can keep their offensive
line healthy, as well as Anderson Perdomo and
Josh Fakava at running back, there is no reason why they cant be in the mix for the division crown.

Dark horse: South City (2-2)

It seems everyone has overlooked the
Warriors amidst the Ocean Divisions stellar
non-league record as a whole. They are the
only team in the division that does not have a
winning record.
But they are also the only team in the Ocean
to have played Serra this season. And while
South City got blown out, it can only make
them better.
The Warriors are always one of the toughest
physical matchups in the PAL, no matter the
division. No one will ever confuse South City
with being a pushover. They have more than
just an ability to derail someone elses title
hopes, dont be surprised to see the Warriors
waiting to pounce if anyone stumbles.

Contenders: Hillsdale (3-1),

Menlo School (4-0), Woodside (4-0)

Lake Division

Of these three, Menlo is probably the best

all-around team. It has gotten better, both
offensively and defensively, since the season
started. Its offense can hang with anybody and
defensively, Menlo is always better than what
it is given credit for.
If nothing else, Woodside has figured out
how to win the tough games. The Wildcats
havent blown out anyone. Instead, they have
gotten just enough offense and just enough

everything right in the first three quarters. The

Bears abused the wings in the first half as they
built a 5-3 lead at halftime.
Hakanson and Christian Huhn were especially lethal in the opening quarter as Huhn hooked
up with Hakanson twice in the first quarter and
both times Hakanson delivered the goal. The
first came on the man-advantage less than a
minute into the first period. After Menlo tied the
score at 1 with the first of James Thygesens
four goals, Huhn and Hakanson hooked up
again, with Huhn delivering a cross-pool pass
from the right wing to Hakanson on the left
wing, who buried his second goal of the game.
The Knights pulled even again with under a
minute in the first on a goal from freshman Sam
Untrecht.

In the second period, M-A could do no wrong,

while Menlo could do nothing right. The Bears
had eight shots on frame in the second, scoring
on three of them. Huhn got into the scoring act
by scoring the go-ahead goal off an assist from
Jorge Pont to put the Bears up 3-2. They
increased it to 4-2 with Huhn taking a pass on
the right wing and beating the Menlo goaltender.
Menlo, which was 1 for 5 on the man-advantage in the period, scored its only power-play
goal of the period on a shot from Wells Costello
to close to 4-3, but M-A got a power-play goal
of its own from Hakanson to give the Bears a 53 lead halftime.
Hakansons fourth goal of the match early in
the third put M-A up 6-3 and the Bears led 7-4

Dark horses: Capuchino (0-4), Carlmont (13), El Camino (0-4), Mills (2-2)
The Lake Division has been the most competitive of the three PAL divisions consistently over the last several years. So even though
it doesnt look like the above teams have done
much during non-league, there always seems to
be a two- or three-team race for the league title
every year.
Mills is the most maddening of this bunch.
For every impressive win this season, theyve
had an eye-popping loss. The Vikings are
most in need of some consistency and if they
can find it, they can challenge for the title
much like they did in 2013.
Capuchino and Carlmont played fairly tough
non-league schedules. So if some one-sided
losses havent affected team morale, these
squads will be tough outs.
El Camino (1-3) has a couple of pieces, but
the Colts have struggled mightily this season.

fight, but they might be out of their weight

But thats when Menlos furious rally began.
They stepped it up to another level, Bowen
said of his squad. I coach because I love

The match was the de facto Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division championship. Because
Menlo and M-A are head and shoulders better
than the rest of the teams in the Bay Division,
the winner of this match usually goes on to win
the division title.
With Menlos win, it would take a monumental upset to deny the Knights the league championship.

Keyhole gardens: Drought-friendly twist on raised beds

By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Americans whose gardens have been

toasted by prolonged drought might consider a landscaping concept from Africa.
Its called keyhole gardening, and some
believe its the ultimate in raised-bed
design a sustainable combination of
composting and planting.
Keyhole gardens are small typically no more than 3 feet high and 6 feet in
diameter and look like keyhole
assemblies in doors when viewed from
above. From the side, they can resemble
a tall earthen pie with a giant slice taken
out.
They dont need fertilizer, use 80 percent less water than the normal backyard
patch, tolerate hot climates and are easier to tend because theyre at waist level.
No bending or kneeling required.
Keyhole gardening was pioneered in
Africa and became popular there again
recently through initiatives by humanitarian aid groups.
A keyhole gardens primary asset is
drought tolerance, although it also works
in temperate climates, said Eddie
DeJong, co-founder and head of business development and design for Vita
Gardens in Sarnia, Ontario. The company makes keyhole garden kits.
The gardens get their nourishment
from compost and water poured down
an open-ended tube in the middle of

the garden bed.

The central composting basket is the
key to making this an effective gardening solution, he said.
After the garden has been established, it should be watered primarily
through the compost basket and less and
less around the bed itself, DeJong said.
This trains the vegetables to grow deep
roots down to where the moisture and
the nutrients are.
Furthermore, if the garden is layered
as intended, local yard waste like grass
clippings, palm fronds and other materials are converted into rich soil, making
the entire bed a composting nutrient factory.
Keyhole gardens are cheap and simple
to assemble. African children often build
them in schoolyards or for their families.
Structural components include native
and recycled materials as straw bales or
bricks. We dont use waste lumber
because it rots down too easily, said
Rose Marie Nichols McGee, president
and owner of Nichols Garden Nursery in
Albany, Oregon. Tractor tires are an
uncertainty because they may contain
toxins.
Some commercial kits offer a more
tailored look for use on patios and decks.
DeJong said his company is working
on lighter, more compact sizes for keyhole gardens, and aluminum and composites for a modern urban look.
Keyhole gardens have proven to be

or for their families.
more productive for McGee than regular
raised beds.
This is particularly true of tomatoes,
peppers, beets and carrots, she said.
Some of this is probably due to the hundreds of worms the keyhole garden promotes, and an abundance of worm castings is one of the best fertilizers and soil
conditioners.

TRAILS
Continued from page 1
access road as part of the citys open space
landholding leading into Laurelwood Park.
Although the city has yet to budget the
improvements, it anticipates volunteer trail
builders will help to reduce the cost. The
Laurelwood Park renovation prompted volunteers with the Trail Center to help to create the main Tenderfoot Trail. Now, the Trail
Center and city seek to offer a larger variety
of paths for hikers seeking some time in the
great outdoors. According to the plan,
mountain bikers are sanctioned to use the
trails at Sugarloaf.
After months of consideration by the
Parks and Recreation Commission, the City
Council reviewed the plans Monday night
and were met by residents who feared one of
the more recently proposed trails wound be
a little too close to their properties.
Ultimately, the council heeded requests
from the Sugarloaf Mountain Homeowners
Association by approving the plan while
removing the proposed Trail 11 which
would have provided a loop opportunity for
hikers but run close to the backs of several
homes.
I think overall, this is truly a gem thats
meant for the use of all the people here,
said Councilman Rick Bonilla, according to
a video of the meeting. But I have to agree,
Trail 11 is a trail too far. Theres lots of other
trails in the park that cover good parts of the
park without interfering in other peoples
homes and privacy.

DAILY JOURNAL FILE PHOTO

Sugarloaf Mountain can be seen from a Ralston Avenue vista point in Belmont.
Several residents cautioned against formalizing the currently small and rarely used
trail near their homes as it could result in
visitor-induced fire hazards and crime rates
could increase. They also worried the animals natural habitat would be disturbed.
Its one thing to improve or expand trails
on the mountain, but quite another to create
a new trail that leaves the park and extends
into private neighborhoods, said 23-year
Sugarloaf Mountain resident Susan Shankle.

I think a line has been crossed. Were in

favor of eliminating Trail number 11 from
the plan completely. I cant imagine the
trail developers would be as enthusiastic if
this was taking place in their backyards.
Other hiking enthusiasts, volunteer trail
builders and Councilman Joe Goethals noted
people should be encouraged to frequent the
open space preserve thats meant for the
enjoyment of everyone.

Mateo resident and on the board of the nonprofit Trail Center, said the entire proposal
was well thought out with respect to erosion
and walkability. Although residents may be
concerned about Trail 11, she felt it wouldnt be used as frequently as they feared. It
would also provide a loop option for those
who dont want to hike in and back on the
same route.
While some have cautioned against building on the mountain, Green noted the trails
would help preserve whats meant to be
shared.
With all due respect to the residents and
their concerns, trails are not development.
Open space is intended for all residents,
Green said.
Goethals agreed, but his motion to continue studying the feasibility of Trail 11 wasnt
supported by his fellow councilmembers.
With new building developments popping
up across the Bay Area, Goethals said he
wants to provide as many opportunities for
future generations to experience nature.
I do think its a citywide amenity for all
of us to enjoy and this project weve taken
on is to enhance that and make it more
accessible to everyone, Goethals said. I
also think that when people get out in the
outdoors and are engaging in it and appreciate its beauty, that theyre more likely to
preserve it. And the more kids we can get
out to enjoy open space things like
Sugarloaf are going to be protected in the

BILL

That was a time when Republicans really got it. We hope

they are going to come back to the good old days of Reagan
and Nixon, when people cared about clean air and clean water.

Continued from page 1

Observatory, overlooking the haze of
downtown Los Angeles.
California already has some of the
worlds toughest air quality standards,
and set a mandate in 2006 to derive a
third of its electricity from renewable
sources such as solar, wind and geothermal by 2020. State regulators say they
already hit 25 percent last year, as huge
solar farms sprouted in the desert and
towering windmills went up along
mountain passes.
Its monumental, said Alex Jackson,
an attorney with the Natural Resources
Defense Council. For an economy the
size of California to commit to getting
half of its power needs from renewable
energy resources, I think, is a game
changer.
Few question whether the new goal of
50 percent is achievable by 2030, but
critics worry that the complex regulations needed to speed the transition from
fossil fuels will add unknown costs for
consumers and businesses.
Republican state Sen. Jim Nielsen of
Gerber predicts more expensive energy,
food and all things that require abundant
affordable energy to produce and transport, particularly hurting those
California families least able to afford
it.
Just how California will meet the new
goal isnt clear. The bill by Senate
President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon, a Los
Angeles Democrat, left the details to the
states Air Resources Board, Energy
Commission and Public Utilities
Commission. These boards are led
mostly by gubernatorial appointees and
have broad influence over economic
life.
Californias utilities favored the measure. They mostly use natural gas, nuclear
energy and some coal, but solar, wind,

Gov. Jerry Brown

geothermal and biomass are growing

sources of electricity, and regulators are
expected to allow them to pass some
costs of the transition on to consumers.
The new law also encourages utilities
to expand by building many more charging stations for electric vehicles, and
provides for fines or penalties if utilities
dont meet the goals.
Supporters say Californians can keep
saving money through rebates and subsidies as they purchase electric vehicles,
replace inefficient light bulbs and appliances, and install solar panels or doublepaned windows.
Brown, a Democrat, began this year
with a vow to push the most aggressive
greenhouse-gas emissions benchmark in
North America. He took his campaign
around the world, even meeting with the
pope in July.
But he lost a key political battle
among moderate Democrats in
Sacramento amid intense lobbying by
the oil industry, which financed a multimillion-dollar advertising campaign that
raised fears of job losses if cuts in petroleum use were imposed.
Catherine Reheis-Boyd, president of
the
Western
States
Petroleum
Association, said petroleum remains a
safe, reliable and affordable energy
source and that the state already requires
clean-burning fuels.
Some lawmakers were willing to
accept forced cuts in petroleum use if the
Legislature could have more power over
the Air Resources Board, which has
been implementing the greenhouse gas
emissions law.
But Brown refused to give up what he
sees as his executive authority.

Democrats, but on Wednesday, Brown

squarely accused Republicans of failing
to do enough to reverse global warming.
He recalled that Ronald Reagan was
Californias governor when the state created the Air Resources Board in
response to the Los Angeles smog, and
that President Richard Nixon signed the
Clean Air Act.
That was a time when Republicans
really got it. We hope they are going to
come back to the good old days of
Reagan and Nixon, when people cared
about clean air and clean water, he said.
Californias new goal builds on landmark legislation signed by former
Republican
governor
Arnold
Schwarzenegger in 2006, which laid the
groundwork for the first U.S. program to
set up a cap-and-trade emissions system,
aiming to reduce pollutants to 1990 levels by 2020.
That program, second only to the
European Unions in size, enables polluters to buy and sell credits on a market,
generating billions in revenues since the
state held its first carbon auction in
2012.
Businesses will pay an estimated $2
billion in the current budget year to help
fund mass transportation including a
planned high-speed rail system and pay
for appliance rebate programs, building
upgrades and forestry and wetland conservation.
Opponents say all this raises costs for
consumers, but supporters say initial
fears of economic harm have not come
true. Californias economy is relatively
healthy, with an unemployment rate of
6.1 percent in August. Thats above the
5.1 percent national average, but the
lowest its been since January 2008.

Suburban brief
A versatile neutral, gray goes with anything
The buzz over 50 Shades of Grey may have faded, but interior design experts say their love affair with the color gray is
definitely not a passing trend.
Looking back 10 years, designer Mollie Ranize remembers
gray being perceived as a depressing color palette that was difficult to use, and no one really wanted to live in it. Since then,
gray has developed into the go-to neutral color and a favorite
solution to many design dilemmas.
Want to use a bold color but worry that it will overpower a
room or look tacky? Mix some cool gray into even the loudest
paint color and it will instantly look more subtle and sophisticated.
And you can find a shade of gray that pairs well with everything.
Its kind of shocking that almost everything on the color
wheel is complimentary with it, says Ranize, founder of DMar
Interiors in Los Angeles. Thats not something you can say
about the whole tan-and-beige wave that we had for a really
long time.
Gray works with every decorating style, from totally traditional to cutting-edge modern. Whatever the style, gray can be
a huge statement, Ranize says, so it doesnt take a huge quantity of accents to get high impact.
It also works surprisingly well in rooms where you might not
expect it: Betsy Burnham, founder of Burnham Design in Los
Angeles, uses dark gray kitchen cabinetry painted with a slightly shimmery satin finish.

which they considered higher priorities.
Moore said the decision to address the
issue again is not indicative of the district reconsidering its opinion on the
matter of affordable housing, but the
upcoming study session would grant all
trustees the opportunity to address the
issue equally.
Bush said though after the subcommittee meeting with city officials, other
trustees had expressed a desire to discuss
the issue at greater lengths.
The district has identified property at
Foxridge and Serra Vista elementary
schools as sources of surplus land which
officials will examine as a potential site
for affordable housing.
Moore said though both properties are
currently being occupied by a child care
service, professional development center, staging for Measure J, the districts
bond construction program, and other
uses, so any decision regarding the
future of those properties would have a
significant impact on the programs
already housed there.
All these things are in play, so it is
not going to be an overnight decision,
Moore said.
There has been growing interest

BACON
Continued from page 1
host the citys first Best Bartender
Competition where local pros try to wow
a panel of judges by concocting a specialty drink that is, of course, inspired by
bacon.
The family-friendly event will also
feature three bands, a childrens bounce
house, face painting, a balloon artist and
tons of restaurants serving baconthemed recipes. A variety of vendors
will be selling a range of goods from
jewelry to hot sauce throughout the 11
a.m. to 5 p.m. event.
Thirsty adults can also participate in a
craft beer sampling, grab a drink from
numerous vendors or even visit the
Farallon Vodka Bloody Mary Bar
courtesy of the San Carlos-based
Coastal Spirits distillery.
The San Mateo Chamber of
Commerce hosts the event that encourages visitors from across the Bay Area to

among school districts in the county to

build affordable housing projects for
teachers and staff, as the San Mateo
Union High School District has also
recently bandied a similar proposal to be
built on the former campus of Crestmoor
High School in San Bruno.
High school district officials have said
they would build their housing project in
a similar fashion to the San Mateo
County Community College District,
which offers housing to staff on the
College of San Mateo campus, and is
considering another, similar project on
the Skyline College campus in San
Bruno.
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo,
recently voiced her support for the high
school districts proposal to mimic the
visit for an afternoon filled with food
and drink.
Chamber CEO Cheryl Angeles said
the event pairs two things that pull on
the strings of hearts around America
microbreweries and bacon.
It brings younger people out to spend
the day enjoying, hopefully, the sunshine, its supposed to be 81 degrees,
and just having a couple beers, tasting
the great bacon dishes and listening to
great music, Angeles said.
Participating restaurants and food
trucks include Block 34, Little Red
Riding Truck, Seoul on Wheels, Three
Restaurant, Roccos Ice Cream Tacos
and more. Each will have various baconofferings and those in attendance can try
bacon blue fries, bacon empanadas, pork
belly tacos and whatever other piginspired concoctions vendors can produce.
Theres everything from bacon ice
cream and chocolate to bacon bits. All
these crazy things, said Rebecca Zito,
senior management analyst in the city
managers office.
As a city known for a happening

community college districts model, as a

means of combating the housing crisis.
Speier, in a letter sent to the high
school district trustees, said local efforts
to build housing are necessary because
there is little interest by federal legislators to offer cost of living relief to San
Mateo County.
Considering the community college
districts model will be part of the discussion by the South San Francisco
board, said Bush.
Bush said though she has not heard
from teachers in the district if there is a
demand for a staff affordable housing
project, in light of the momentum building toward similar projects, she would
like to gauge the interest of the school
community for the initiative.
Affordable housing is an issue in the
county which then affects attracting and
retaining quality teachers and staff, she
said. We want to keep our staff and
attract staff, so this is an issue we need to
look at. This is a great opportunity to
look and see if this is something we want
to pursue.
The South San Francisco Board of
Trustees will meet for a study session
Monday, Oct. 12, at the Baden Adult
School gymnasium, 825 Southwood
Drive. The meeting begins at 6 p.m.

downtown restaurant scene, having this
welcoming fall foodie event at Central
Park is ideal, Zito said.
The Bacon and Brew Festival brings
a lot of positive energy to San Mateo.
Its a fun and creative event that exposes
visitors to San Mateo, highlights our
downtown and plays off our food and
dining scene, Zito said. The really nice
thing with both [last weekends] Wine
Walk and the Bacon and Brew Festival,
is that it carries over the energy from the
summer and is a nice segue into the winter and holiday events that are coming.
The Bacon and Brew Festival is 11
